Hi Everyone,

I'm currently working on buying my first investment property in Chicago (owner occupy multifamily). I'm originally from West Des Moines, IA area and a University of Iowa alum. I'm an avid Biggerpockets podcast listener and got the real estate investing bug after reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad back in October of last year (cliche I know). I've been in sales since I moved to Chicago in 2012. I currently sell Enterprise talent acquisition software for a company in the loop. My goal for real estate is financial freedom (Cash flow/buy and hold). I don't hate my job, but I don't feel comfortable having a single source of income, and would like more financial security and freedom!

They always suggest introducing yourself in the forums on the podcast, so I figured I would do so.

Thank you,
