No Holding Back: A Soon-To-Be House-hacker in Washington, DC

[Junie Joseph]

Hi, I'm Junie Joseph and trigger shy. I have been listening to podcasts and reading books on real estate investment for the last 4 years, but keep telling myself, now isn't the right time. Common excuses:

1. I need to finish my graduate degree (check)
2. I need to get a job (check)
3. I will wait until after I am married (check)
4. I will wait until the perfect deal comes along (working on it)

And have noticed great deals pass me by. After witnessing two friends recently purchase their home and living my house hacking dreams, I am inspired to stop holding back and to give this my all.

Looking forward to increasing my network with others taking bold steps so that we can encourage each other to do great things.

I am a research analyst by day and enjoy working as a web developer/SEO/marketer after hours. I also tutor test prep as well as all mathematics and economics courses at the college level.

I love learning new things and challenging myself, so let me know if there is anything you need help with.

Until then, my plan (and prayer) is to share my first house hack experience here by June 2019. Thanks for being part of the story!
