New guy from Milwaukee

I just can't get over what a great forum this is, one of the best Internet forums I've seen for any subject, not just real estate.

I am a buy-and-hold landlord though I would like to learn other strategies over time.

One of the great things about Milwaukee is a large swath of the city and inner suburbs are full of sturdily built duplexes. I've always thought what a shame it is that duplex construction fell out of favor, as it offers such a great way for young people to break into home ownership.

I got started by purchasing a duplex in Tosa from my own landlord. I picked up another duplex , and I manage a third duplex for my parents. I plan on adding to my portfolio soon, and am looking at 3 and 4-unit buildings.

Oh, and full disclosure, I actually don't have this much hair, but hey it was an old picture that was handy.
