Hello, My name is Ryan.  I am originally from the Midwest, but now live in the Miami - Fort Lauderdale area.

I am here to gain knowledge, and meet people.

I'm looking at buying single or multi-family real estate to hold and rent long term. 

Since I was a teenager, I have wanted to get into Real Estate investing.  My parents seemed very confused, when at the age of 15 I would bring books home from the library on the subject.  Finally now I am financially able to pursue that ambition.

I've worked in roofing, siding, building, locksmithing, had a contractors license, have a degree in engineering, and currently work in aviation.

I have already read a ton of threads on this forum, and I am looking forward to learning more from all of you.

Anyone in the area, or who knows this market, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks!
