Welcome to BP! What are your goals? Flip, Buy and Hold? That's a decent area to find REI success. GL to you. GS

Gavin interested in buy and hold. Been reading a lot and spending a lot of time on BiggerPockets. I have a fair amount of money I want to redirect out of the stock market. But it hard to take that leap into my first rental. I have some good connections on some potential properties in the Washington, IL area but can't decide if SF or multi-family is the best way to start. What is your background?

Michael awesome news about the local RE group. How often do you meet? Will definitely plan to checkout the meetings.
