[Emeric Harney]

Hi there BP Community! My name is Emeric and I'm 30 years old, living in rural Connecticut. I discovered Bigger Pockets through listening to a couple of podcast episodes and now am starting to browse the forums to get a better understanding of how I can start to branch out into more real estate investing. My day job is Marketing Director for an international tea company, but I'm looking to add an alternative revenue stream. 

I own a primary residence in rural Connecticut as well as an investment property in Raleigh (my spouse owned before we met).  As we look to acquire our first property together, I wanted to know if anyone had tips or suggestions on how we can go about to get our next property.  With 2 mortgages and other expenses, how does one get another mortgage?
