Introduction to Bigger Pockets

[Josue Fuentes]

Hello. I just graduated from school and landed my dream job. I am now looking for financial freedom here in Phoenix, Arizona. Especially since I am planning on buying a multifamily home as my first investment. I would gladly take any tips and advice! Have a great day :)

Hey Josue, Welcome to the Phoenix Real Estate community!

Everyone has given you great advice and I'd love to add another perspective. You are already on the right path by creating a BiggerPockets account. Soak up as much as you can. I'm a huge advocate for education so whether it's listening to podcasts, reading books on various investing strategies, or plugging into the forums & articles on BP, make sure to get a solid educational foundation as you start. I'd also suggest going to a few real estate investing meetups in The Valley & make some connections in the community.

If you are open to building sweat equity, I'd suggest doing a Live-in-Flip. There are always properties around the city priced for a solid Live-in-Flip deal. Plus, many cities in The Valley are exploring allowing ADUs to be built on existing properties that meet specific lot requirements. Just a thought!
