I got into a multi-family using an FHA loan and think it's a great path for newcomers... house hacking works out well too if you have the skills/willingness to put a little extra work updating and the freedom to hop around for a few years.While you're waiting to jump in, it's definitely worth it to start learning how to evaluate deals... besides being really enjoyable, it will help for when you're ready to take the leap.Good luck!

This will help me achieve financial freedom and allow me to spend more time with my family rather than attached to a cubicle.I look forward to meeting other like-minded individuals within the community with similar goals.

Failing my way towards financial freedom") did it.

I want the freedom to leave the daily grind and focus on my entrepreneurial endeavors.If there's anyone in this huge community that has any advice for a first-time buyer with big-time goals, please don't hesitate to give it!

In my mind the freedom of information ( internet)  the HOW to class's  ( guru's  selling how to )and then Soup D Jour all of these add up to legions of people coming into different RE niche's heretofore were not the province of more of what I call the individual investor.. be them a successful business owner looking to do something new.. high wage earner looking for diversification etc.

I have no intention of quitting my day job, but I like the idea of being able to have the back stop and freedom.

The longer the house is not being rented is a drain on you and not getting you down the road to financial freedom

This allowed me to purchase a 9 unit apartment building here locally in Berwyn, which has been a huge part of my success on my own journey towards financial freedom!

Real estate, can give us financial freedom, but I know what it's like not to have anything, and have many of life's challenges be thrown at you.

I am  seeing tons of new investors from all over the place coming into the market place all in search for the lifestyle of their dreams and mainly FREEDOM and see many investors that get stuck in the grind only to be overwhelmed with information and not taking action.
