Hello from Philadelphia, PA

[Aaron Osgood]

Hi there,

Stumbled upon this website and forum and am happy to join the ranks of real estate professionals across the country! My name is Aaron, hailing from the Philadelphia region. I work in finance for a new home builder in the region and am trying to expand my individual real estate assets. I currently rent in the region, living with a girl going into her 3rd year of law school. We envision ourselves staying here for awhile and I have that burning desire to own property. I am actively looking in the region and developing my investment criteria. I envision us buying a duplex + in a safe area. Some of the obstacles I am expecting are only having 1 year of tax return income (avg income at that) and finding the best deals out there. However, I have enough money saved to find some great properties.

I have already read through some of the tips and I am looking forward to scouring the forums for more helpful information.

Regards,

Aaron
