Long-time lurker, finally a member!

[Dave Hurt]

Hi All,

Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello to the community. BP has been incredibly helpful and instrumental in my and my partner's learning process!

I am new to the world of buy and hold real estate investing and couldn't be more excited to be getting into the market right now. Like many of the members here, my long-term goal is to build a substantial portfolio of rental properties, so that I can eventually gain financial freedom from the corporate world!

We are based out of Charlotte, NC and have found this to be an outstanding rental market, with some great deals to be found. After much reading and learning on BP and through many books, we finally jumped in and currently have our first duplex under contract!

Thank you for being an amazing community and resource, and I look forward to sharing with all of you, and hopefully one day contributing a little knowledge as well :)
