Hello BiggerPockets community! I'm Ryan, from Duvall WA, and just discovered this site a couple of weeks ago after coming across Brandon Turner's The Book on Rental Property Investing. My wife and I are mutually interested in real estate investing with the goal of significantly increasing our financial freedom over time. We have not acquired any real estate yet, but we are both working on our real estate investing education. We aim to close our first real estate deal by the end of the year, while maintaining our current jobs (I am a software engineer, she is a naturopathic physician). Right now, we have our eye on rental property investing, particularly multi-family (probably tri-plex or four-plex), but we're still trying to learn all the possible avenues of real estate investment.

I'm currently neck deep in learning the details of financial analysis of potential rental investment properties, and would love some suggestions on the best place to ask questions on this topic (the Buying & Selling Real Estate Discussion forum?).

Super glad to have discovered this community and resource and hope to have enough success to contribute back as well!

@Ryan Tremblay Welcome and good luck, I enjoyed @Anson Young book "Finding and Funding great deals; the hands on guide to acquiring real estate in any market" when I was trying to dig deeper into the financial analysis part of investing!
