Hi, BP community ~

I'm a recently NY-licensed clinical psychologist specializing in children, adolescents, and families. Although I've spent the majority of my life pursuing higher education and training, as soon as our son was born last year, I knew I wanted to be a full-time stay-at-home mom (despite the horrified looks and comments from family, friends, and professionals who provided support during my education). My husband is a successful business owner who approached me with ideas about real estate investing. Once I picked my jaw up off of the floor and actually listened to what he was saying and read his resources, I was sold.

We are both relatively young (30 years old) and have not been involved with real estate. We want to start now so that we can eventually have the time wealth to spend with our son (and hopefully future children).

We haven't decided on an area in which to focus; we are in the "information gathering" stages of real estate investing. We listen to BP podcasts while we are walking our dog, working out, taking showers, cleaning the house, etc. etc.!

Thank you for taking the time to read this,

Cassie
