[Devan Bermejo]

My name is Devan Bermejo. I’m from a small town in northwest Ohio. I stumbled across the Bigger Pockets podcast. I’ve always had an interest in real estate, but never thought I could make a living from it. After listening to the podcast it’s given me confidence to start trying to get into real estate. I haven’t made any moves yet well mainly because I’m from a small town and don’t know how to get started. My goal is to use real estate investing to become financially free. I’m a union carpenter, so I have some knowledge and skills in being able to rehab a property. I’ve became pretty obsessed with becoming financially free through real estate and other sources of passive income after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad. If anyone has an tips to getting started in a small town I’d appreciate it.
