Newbie in Phoenix, AZ

[Patrick Millerd]

Hey everyone! My name is Patrick Millerd and I live in Phoenix, AZ. I’m  new to real estate investing but very excited about it. I guess I’m kind of a late bloomer, pursued a medical career out of college and that has dominated the last decade of my life. In fact I’m just now finally getting my student loans under control. 

BiggerPockets was actually suggested to me by a friend after I expressed interest in real estate investment. My experience is minimal, I owned a house in Omaha, NE for a couple years and sold it when I moved to Phoenix. 

I’ve been renting for the past year and I actually close on a house next week... though I find I’m having some misgivings after listening to some podcasts and reading about house hacking.  

I’m interested in generating passive income through rental properties but also interested in flipping houses from an investment position (I’m not handy at all) - perhaps down the road. 

Really looking forward to interacting with the BP community and excited to begin this journey!
