Newbie from Monroe, WI

[Garrett Davis]

Hello everyone, I am from Monroe, WI and completely new to real estate investing. My background is in auto repair and I was looking at buildings to buy to start my own shop in 2017. While I was looking at buildings and costs involved I realised that all of the commercial buildings I found that would work financially for me all had apartments up stairs. So with my findings I started doing some research in renting apartments and discovered that there was better money to be made in that then fixing cars. That lead me to scraping the shop idea and now here I am. I am looking to start off buying a few single family homes or duplexes within an hour of my house. Although the though of a small trailer park is also been running though my mind. My goal is to build up a passive income to be able to semi retire within the next 20 years. I just found BP a week ago and have been on here non stop reading and listening to podcasts to learn everything that I can.
