Hello everyone, I'm Steve. Husband and father of three. I've worked in social services and law enforcement for about 20 years and I don't want to do it anymore. I have always been interested in real estate and in owning land. I started with the RE podcast after a coworker and rental property owner told me about it and was instantly hooked. I bought my pro membership last week and have probably run through about 100 analyses just for practice and actually found a few properties that my agent thought were good looks in a desirable area. I am pumped to go see my first 2 multi-family units tomorrow and a couple multi and single family units on Friday. Thanks to Biggerpockets, I'm confident that I have the tools I will need to start building something for myself and my family. I'm keeping my day job for now, but a guys gotta hope, right? Keep up the great work BP!

Welcome Steve! BP is a great resource. I’ve learned so much over the past couple months and I’ve found some great local resources thanks to it. It’s finally given me the confidence to purchase my first property after years of thinking about it but not being financially ready.
