New REI in the Philadelphia, PA market

Hi everyone,

I thought this was an obvious place to start now that I've stumbled on the new member thread. I've been getting acclimated to the site and the forums over the last week or so. So much great information is shared here. Not sure if I've seen a more open and information sharing centric business than REI.

Little bit about me: I'm just another guy who does the M-F grind and is looking for a better way to invest his money and at some point become financially free from the high stress/high demand job working for someone else. My business partner and I also want to ensure we spend our time making a positive impact on the communities that we live in. We both currently own homes in a rapidly gentrifying area of Philadelphia and we see first hand the negative impact that uncontrolled and irresponsible development has a long time tenants. We both see an opportunity to make a great living for ourselves while responsibly developing the neighborhoods that are full of blight and vacant properties. 

I'm a transplant from Chicago, IL and have been in Philly for the last 4 years. I enjoy hiking, riding my bike around this great city, and bar hopping on the weekends. I'd love to meet up with anyone local to chat. I'm looking to grow my REI network. I feel I'm pretty good at setting up business systems and developing processes so if anyone needs any support on that I'm happy to chat.

Looking forward to engaging with more people on the site and purchasing our first investment property in early 2018.

If you made it this far, thanks a lot for reading and best of luck on your business endeavors.

Adam
