New investor from Buffalo Grove, IL

[David Smolen]

Hey everybody,

My name is David and I am brand new to the world of real estate investing. This has been something I've thought and casually read about for several years and I'm now ready to jump in and get my feet wet.

Currently, I don't know much, but I do know that I want to get into small multi-family unit renting. For my first building, I'd like to have a triplex or quadplex so that I can live in one and rent the others. Not really sure where to get started, any help would be appreciated!

Also, if anyone is from my area and knows about any REIA's, I would love to attend a few and learn more!

Thanks,

David

I’m in your area. We are in the same boat. My family is in real estate.  I’ve got great mentors. I am finishing up a 180 unit project  in North Chicago and got a few ideas. Let’s chat!  I am ready to jump into the business as well. Maybe we can learn a few things from each other.
