Hey all,

I'm a newbie from Iowa City, IA. I'm a teacher at the local high school. Grew up in Illinois, but have lived here quite some time now. I fell into real estate by accident when we couldn't sell our house during the crash. Since then we've bought a few more SFR and small plexes.

I don't want to 'escape' my job or really even achieve financial freedom in the way most folks talk about.  My main motivation is that I love real estate and feel called to pursue it.  Plus it is fun to do deals, structure financing, and figure out how to solve interesting problems!

Love BP and all the great info on here!

Cheers,

AJ
