Seeking for a good advise for my path to financial freedom!

[Shirley Fanduiz]

Hello Everyone,

I am a listener of BiggerPockets podcast for a while and I am still new at real estate. I wanted to get some advice. I was not sure if this is the place to post but here it is. I have a primary residence in Lowell, MA. I have a mortgage 30 fixed since 2007 I have never tap into my equity. I had some ups and downs were I had to do loan modifications, the worst of all I had to file for Chapter 13 to keep my Home from previous Ch 7 filed. I am still on my 2yr of my 60month of my ch 13. I went with the first advice with a bankruptcy attorney without learning much. I did not want to lose my home at the time. Now after being in this mess of 2yr paying the court+ my mortgage, what are my options to become an investor? I think I have some kind of equity in my home but I never wanted to use it for anything. After listening to this episode turning your primary residence into a financial freedom.  like more others but I am scared of asking this question and were to start since this is a mess I got myself into for the lack of knowledge. I hear everybody financial freedom and I want to become part of it since I have my home. Help! What advise is for me out there... and if there is hope for me...

Thank you
