Hi everyone, (following the outline of the how to introduce sticky)

My name is Eric Tu, and I grew up around a stay at home mom that worked her butt off running a motel with my dad and eventually ended up in coin operated commercial real estate and equipment sales. I have lived the process of homes, large scale condos, and commercial properties built from scratch, but have not participated in anything but the purchase of my family's own starter home a few years ago.

I'm originally from Illinois, but lived most of my life in Los Angeles and San Diego.

Currently, I am a stay-at-home dad which recently graduated from law school and passed the CA bar.

My goal here is to learn how to use my resources, personal (plenty) and financial (not so much), to create an empire!

I literally typed in: "what else can I do with my law degree" and from one click to another, I somehow ended up here...

Honestly, I have always had real estate on the brain, it was going to be my chosen family investment profession regardless of my wife and I's professions, but seeing as I am at home with my kid for now, why waste time waiting to invest when I could just start now?

Long-term, I really want to get to know people that are in this field because I think this type of pursuit is followed by like-minded and entrepreneurial spirits. How many opportunities do you get to network and branch out of your own social shell once you are out of school? Not many. This is my first step toward a whole new lifestyle, and like the free BP beginner's guide mentions, I'm here to be 100% committed to that pursuit.
