Introducing myself to Birmingham and wider BP community

[David C.]

Recently moved to Birmingham, AL from Chicago to be closer to family but also to reinvent myself professionally. 

Immediate goal:

I'm currently not employed. So... I am working on finding a W-2 (salary or wage) job where ideally I can help investors manage and grow their business while learning about the Birmingham investment market. But I am open to other opportunities.

Long term goals: 

Invest in Real Estate, of course! 

For my first investment, I want to "house-hack". Initial thoughts : a duplex or SFH with an on-site apartment. Neighborhoods: The Birmingham southside, Homewood, Mountain Brook, Vestavia

Relevant experience:

- Completed the licensing exam for Alabama RE salesperson. (Haven't affiliated with an agency as of yet.)

- Realtor in Chicago specializing in apartment leasing.

- Condo Board President of 32 unit building

- Sales and Service District Manager for automotive manufacturer

- DIY - home improvement enthusiast
