Newbie in Houston, TX
My name is Kyle Ray, and I am a 24 year old engineer in Houston, TX. I was introduced to REI ~6 months ago by a friend at work and have been consuming books and podcasts ever since. I am currently looking for a house to live in and house hack in Heights, Washington, Montrose, etc. and am working to get more practice at analyzing deals for cash flow and ROI.
I just read "How to Invest in Real Estate" by Josh and Brandon and told myself I couldn't consider the book done until I took the challenge from the book to take ACTION and get involved, so here I am!
