Same to you Farris. I appreciate the comment. 

Thank you all for the replies. I am just getting started, so I am sure I will be referring back to this original thread to take you all up on some of your advice and offers of guidance. Searching for properties now and running numbers. 

Hello all, I'm excited to get started. My name is Edward Itayim and I live in Columbus, Ohio. I'm 35 years old, married with two children. I have been a practicing litigation attorney for 10 years after being honorably discharged from the United States Marine Corps. I've always been interested in the world of real estate, but just now to the point where I want to start investing. In addition to my own home, I did acquire two homes through foreclosure in Youngstown, Ohio, but that is the extent of my real estate experience. I am most interested in commercial office rentals and multi-unit apartments. Over the last two months I have just been reading and learning as much as possible. That's what led me to BiggerPockets. Listened to Anson Young's audio book as well as Brandon Turner's rental investing book. I'm ready to get moving. Still need some knowledge regarding financing, so any help on that end would be great. Just trying to achieve what most are...financial freedom!
