Evan from Denver, CO
Hello!
My name is Evan Miller, and I'm pretty new to everything real estate but excited to get started learning! I learned about BiggerPockets while listening to "The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down", by Brandon Turner on audio book.
I am originally from Denver, and moved back here about a year ago. At the end of least year I bought the condo in which I am currently living and have been renting out my extra room for six months now. That is all the experience I have in this business, but throughout the process of buying my condo I found myself thoroughly enjoying it and realized I am completely fascinated by real estate, especially in Denver.
I currently am most drawn to buying and holding real estate, although I'm open to pretty much any method that ends up working for me. Ultimately I would like to be able to make a business with real estate that can replace a normal job.
As I continue to do my own studying, I'm excited to learn from all of you who are willing to share with me what you know!

Thanks for the posts @James Carlson, @Krystallin Baker, and @Chris Lopez!
Airbnb was definitely an option that I was considering as I was buying my house, and I'm still keeping it as an option. The long term room mate came first so I went with it! Airbnb sounds fun though, because you have a lot more potential to increase your income, and work out some strategies along the way. So far the stability of a regular rent check has been pretty nice though, since I'm a beginner. Both good options!
