Hey everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself to the community. I have been following biggerpockets for a while now but my goal is to become more engaged with other investors. I live outside of Pittsburgh, and have recently started investing in this area as well as the northern panhandle of West Virginia! I look forward to learning and growing with everyone here. If you're reading this and live in the Pittsburgh area Id love to connect! Thanks
