Just starting out!
Hello everyone my name is Rich Barrett and as the title says I am just starting out! I'm located just outside the Chicago Metro area.
I'm primarily looking to break into real estate by purchasing my first rental property (either single family or duplex). Being that I don't have initial funds or the greatest credit my desire is to partner with a great investor to get me up and rolling.
Also, I am available to "bird dog" or locate properties for investors in and around the Chicago Metro area as well as the rural outlying counties where I reside (LaSalle, Grundy, Kendall, DeKalb).
It's great to be here and I hope to be of help to others as well as time goes by!
Rich
