My name is Wendell, I am 26 years old and I am brand new to BiggerPockets, already love all the support and information in the community.I just wanted to layout where I am at in my investment journey as well as my initial game plan for really jumping straight into real estate investing.

That's a straight up direct quote that he said to me with a straight face.I'm a real estate attorney with a broker's license.I have tried everything, and am out of ideas.
