Hello from Philadelphia!

[Luis Rosario]

Greetings Everyone,

This is Luis Omar Rosario and I would like to introduce myself to the Bigger Pockets community!

I'm a young investor who has just started to experience the power and the iberation that comes from investing in real estate. Just last year, I bought my first home which also happened to be a duplex. With some planning, support and some sweat and tears, I 've been able to re-zone the propety into a triplex. I'm now wearing the landlord and property manager hat, which has blessed me with being able to pay my monthly mortgage payments with the rent I receive.

Just one year of landlording has given me bountiful experiences. Everything from flooded toilets, rent collection, and tenant screening has been a powerful learning experience! I'm looking forward to commune and build with my fellow scrupulous landlords and property investors.

All the best,

Luis Rosario

Welcome! Landlording certainly has it's ups and downs but overall it's very rewarding. Glad to have you aboard. Can you fill us in on the process of converting from duplex to triplex?
