Poor Dad from the Pittsburgh, PA area
Hi Everyone! My name is Matt Lancaster. I'm a Dad, Husband, and a Software Developer (by trade). I live in a smaller city about an hour south east of Pittsburgh, PA, called Uniontown. I've been wanting to break away from the 9-5 for a long time, but used the same excuses any Poor Dad would (cost, risk, etc). Although I've kicked around the idea of investing in real estate it wasn't until my friend Ryan Gartley (also a BiggerPockets member) decided to ask if I wanted to partner up. So as I do with anything that peaks my interest I veraciously begin reading and researching.
I actually had my interest piqued earlier this summer as my cousins deal with commercial real estate, capital investments, and financial planning. I told my wife, that's what I want. If they can do it, why not I? So here I am. I look forward to being apart of the BP community!
Best Regards,
Matt
