Hello from the San Francisco Bay Area!

[Cheryl S]

Hello Everyone!

My name is Cheryl, and I am semi-new as I lurk and have asked a question in the past. I learn SO much from this site. The information on forming an LLC and the 2%/50% rule helped me with my first purchase which was in St. Louis a few months ago.

I always loved old houses, and that has brought me to the world of real estate investing. My interest is in regional architecture, so I am really excited about my first property - a St. Louis Federal style "red brick" in a historic district. I'm a buy and hold newbie investor.

My goals are to buy and renovate to rent (eventually restore) properties all over the country - (i.e., Rowhouse in Baltimore, Cape Cod in New England, etc.). I'm really excited because I feel like I finally found my passion.

Thanks for all the information you all so generously share!

I hope everyone is having a nice holiday season!
