Hi Everyone,
I was directed to the Bigger Pockets podcast from a different website and have been listening nonstop, as well as reading the different blog posts. I also signed up for the webinar this Wednesday!
A little about me: My friends call me Chris, I am 24 years old and currently work in the financial tech industry here in Chicago. I currently rent an apartment with my friend.
My goal: Financial freedom or at least flexibility.
Interests: I have had on and off interest in purchasing over the past year and a half. My dad has encouraged it and while I have looked around, it has never been anything serious, nor did I approach it with a strategy. After hearing the BP podcast and reading up, buying a multi-family property to both home hack and begin to build an additional pillar of income seems more than a pipe dream.
Obviously it isn't as easy as A-B-C and I have a lot more to learn, but I am just getting started. I have two other friends who have been interested in the real estate market and have been doing research for a while, and have been talking to them about it, which could potentially offer some creative funding. However if anyone has advice going down that route, I would love to hear feedback. I know this is the introductory post, but I am excited!
Happy to be here,
Chris
