Just starting to figure out the basics

[Jack OMalley]

Hi! I've already posted once on here but here's a little about me. 

My name is Jack O'Malley, I'm 20 years old living in Corvallis, Oregon, but thinking about investing in either Salem or Portland. I'm not quite ready to start looking into deals quite yet because I'm getting my emergency fund all funded before I really start thinking about buying anything. I've been researching everything I can to prepare myself, and am currently working on a construction site in Salem as an assistant superintendent, and my dad has been in construction for as long as I can remember so I should have a great contact list of people to help me when I need it. 

Me and my girlfriend have talked about potentially buying her parents rental house to house hack to start us out. Thinking about RE investing and all of its benefits gets me really excited about the future and I can't wait to get started!

For what its worth I own multi family in three states (including the Portland Metro) and 100% would recommend investing somewhere within an hour of your residence. Happy to help you search if you don't already have a realtor I would love to help and even if you do and want some high level thoughts/advice shoot me a PM!
