A friend at work told me about BiggerPockets so I decided to check it out. Very impressed by everything available.
I haven't done any real estate investing (besides my own house) but I am interested in learning under someone who has some experience and making my own investments. As I've researched and learned about real estate I've developed my own "why's" for me personally.
1. I like the idea of a hard asset that I have more control over than an asset such as a stock.
2. I'm very interested in passive (or close to passive income).
3. In my day job I work with a lot of small business owners and I really enjoy seeing the impact they can make on their community and the leg up they can give their own children by teaching them aspects of the business regardless of whether they follow in their footsteps.
If you are in the Quad Cities area I'd be happy to meet with you and learn more about this industry.
