Newbie from Santa Rosa, CA; Moving to Denver Soon

[Adam Smith]

Hello there Bigger Pockets Community!  I'm new to the site and also just starting out in real estate investing.  I have been in the "read as much as possible and save money" phase for a couple of years and am now ready to take my first step into investing .  My girlfriend and I are looking to move to the Denver area as we just had a baby 3 weeks ago and would like to be closer to family.  Currently, we live in Santa Rosa, CA.  

We are interested in finding a house-hacking situation, which from reading the forums seems like it might be pretty tough in the Denver market.  We are open to moving anywhere in Colorado, but would like to be close her parents in Conifer/Evergreen.  Denver metro would be fabulous for me.  If anyone has a recommendation for an investor friendly agent/broker that would be great  

It feels great to be here!

@Adam Smith Hey Adam!

Welcome to The BiggerPockets community and (soon) Denver! It’s a great place to live, plenty of out door activities, beer, groups to get involved with, beer, friendly people, and beer.

It’s no secret that it’s difficult to find a good deal out here, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible, especially when doing a house hacking situation to start out.

Not sure what your time frame is but I’d be more than happy to jump on a call to chat to see if there’s anything I can do to help you and your family!

And of course, congrats on becoming a father!
