Newbie from Fort Worth Texas!
Hey BiggerPockets! My name is Tarren, and I'm very new to the field of real estate investing. I was first introduced to this industry six months ago after reading the classic Rich Dad Poor Dad. I came across bigger pockets by their podcast, which I now listen to daily. I am 20 years old, I work a full time job right now in the retail industry during the day, and I'm attending an online university at night. My first step that I want to take is by getting a job in the real estate field to help learn the business. I'm considering getting my real estate license to initially work for a broker but I know it's hard starting out as a new agent. My first investment property will be a duplex that my wife and I will house hack. My long term goal is to reach financial freedom by building a buy and hold portfolio that consist of single/multi family houses.
