Checking in from Melbourne Fl
Hello!
My name is Jamie Rost and I am brand new to real estate investing. My day job is currently an executive in IT at a local college but like many other stories, my income being tied directly to the hours I worked have required me to choose between work and family which is less than ideal requiring me to research other options. I have been learning about real estate for the past year and am now ready to start my investment journey. I am interested in investing locally as well as long distance in both single family and multi-family homes. I like the idea of buy and hold but also have some experience participating in rehab and flip projects.
What I really like about real estate is all of the options available and the potential for each option. I also really like how supportive the community is to help one another succeed.
