Newbie in Minneapolis, MN

[Richard Douglass]

Hi everyone,

My name is Rich, and I relocated to Minneapolis in August of 2019 for a job at the University. I just finished 4 years of undergraduate and 5 years of graduate schooling. I have no student loans, but I moved to MN with less than a thousand dollars in savings. Ever since I started paying $2000 a month for rent I've been brainstorming how I can buy something to live in as soon as possible. Funny enough, I was considering every alternative except REI itself. I'm working my way through Craig's house hacking book now and am hoping to buy my first multi-family around July so I don't have to rent for another year. I'm looking forward to getting to know the BiggerPockets community!
