Hello all.  Just starting out in real estate investing.  I'm a firefighter and have a side business doing home inspections.  Doing very well in both of these but working almost everyday and would like to add some passive income streams for wealth building as well as just in case I get hurt and can't work any longer.  Looking forward to meeting some members and hopefully being able to give back to others as I learn about investing.  Thanks!

    Welcome to the investing world! Would love to connect with you and talk about the home inspections if possible.
