New member from the Detroit, MI area

[Brandon Learning]

Hey everyone, My name is Brandon Learning and I am a total newbie when it comes to real estate investing. Currently my only experience in real estate is buying my first home with my wife a few years ago. I am very interested in buying and holding properties and renting. Single family and multi-family both sound like something I would like to get started with. I have been listening to at least one podcast a day and also trying to read as much as I can on the subject. Based on what I’ve seen from the forums there is a ton of valuable information here and I plan to absorb as much as possible. I checked the meet up page and didn’t see any events or meet ups planned for the Detroit area (maybe I just missed something?) but I would be very interested in meeting up with some more seasoned investors and newbies alike to be able to discuss real estate more in depth. I look forward to seeing where this new adventure leads. Thanks for reading!
