Hello BiggerPockets!
My name is Mason and i'm new to the world of Real Estate. I am currently educating myself of all the different types of investing. My goal is to invest in my first multifamily property by January 1st of 2021. Don't be afraid to reach out if you are also from the area!

Hey Mason!
Can I ask you why you want to wait a whole year? Why not get started now?

Nathaniel,
I want to educate myself a lot better before I dive in. One year is just a deadline, once I feel I'm confident that I know enough to be successful I will be looking to find my first property.
