I owe my real estate investing career to the gentleman who sold me the theater, and the gentleman who offered to buy it a year later.

There are alot of good working class paying citizens in the hood that have jobs and careers.

I recently graduated college and started my career as a mechanical engineer and have recently decided that while I love my job I don't want to work for the rest of my life, and real estate investing makes the most sense to me in order to gain financial freedom before I turn 60.I have been reading a ton of real estate books and discovered the bigger pockets book on rental property investing which gave me a great introduction to all the topics and possibilities in real estate.

Good luck in your REI career and thank you so much for your service to this country.

Purchase price: $70,000 Cash invested: $90,000 This property was the biggest transformation so far in my REI career, and it fought us every step of the way.

I have been researching and on bigger pockets for over a year now and its time for me to choose the career path I want to take.

I would actually like to house hack my first multi-family property while I am getting my Career started.

Sounds like you're already familiar with real estate and working in a positive direction on your career.

We are nervous as this will be our first investment and since both of us have full time careers, we are currently looking for a passive investment where we can invest with someone and learn from the bottom up.

Best of luck in your future investment career.
