Another new investor

[Adam Hanson]

Hey all, My name is Adam and I am a 29 year old future real estate investor in Seattle WA. I am a custom staircase maker and have been blessed with the ability to binge real estate investing books all day at work, and finally got hooked on the bigger pockets podcast as well.  I started out building guitars on the east coast, and have since transplanted my little opperation out to seattle in 2014, where I still build acoustic and electric guitars in my personal time. During the working hours, I have been working with a custom staircase company building absolutely bananas spiral staircases and solid wood bathtubs and sinks. 

I have been a woodworker for the better part of a decade but have been casually dating with the idea of a fix and flip, along with a buy and hold lifestyle.I love the whole ideology behind real estate, but I have always held an "over analyse before jumping in" mentality and catch myself dragging my feet some days to try to progress to the next step (rather, the actual first step which is to buy a property) and get that analysis paralysis. One of the biggest excuses I make right now is the cost of entry in Seattle, along with not really knowing which areas are the most critical to focus in on, and try to process as much content as possible. I am currently reading up about getting into multi unit properties and plan to have the first rental I do be a house hack. 

I am so stoked to be here with such an awesome community of folks, and I look forward to talking to all of you fine folks out there!
