New to the BP Forums!
Hello to all the BP followers! My name is Dane Larsen and I just recently discovered BiggerPockets through the podcast world. I am 20 years old and currently live in Bellingham, WA, but I will be moving to Ellensburg, WA to finish up my schooling this coming fall. I have made some big changes to invest in myself for the past few months. I originally got interested in the investing world through the stock market when I was 18, but have grown obsession with the diversity of the real estate industry. Also, I believe that REI offers an individual much more control over their finances compared to that of the stock market, which I do find more appealing. I am working towards purchasing my first SFH when I move out and I plan to house hack through my final years of college. This we give me time to learn and grow, then I'll be able to pull the equity from the home to jump start my rental property business, along with my profession of choice. I would love to talk to anyone that feels they have something to share as I start my journey. I hope everyone has a great rest of their day!

I will definitely take you up on meeting sometime! I'm going to constantly be bouncing back and forth from Bellingham to Ellensburg with getting school settled and when property opportunities arise. I won't officially be resident to Ellensburg until mid/late September. I look forward to staying in touch with you.
Cheers!
