Hello BP! Newbie here from Naperville, IL (Chicago suburb)

[Alexander W.]

Hi everyone,

My name is Alex. I've been a long-time listener to the Bigger Pockets podcast but have finally decided to make a profile and try and branch out a bit more. I graduated from college roughly 2 years ago and have been working at an accounting firm ever since. I am a licensed CPA in the state of Illinois. My current goal is to find a duplex and rent out half of it to a tenant within the next year or so. An interesting fact about me is I have a 2 year old who is very fun! 

Anyone in the Naperville or greater Chicago area? Would love to network and learn as much as I can. I'm pretty new to all of this, but am eager to learn and do my first deal.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend!

Alex
