Hello, Bigger Pockets Community! My name Is Brian and I live in Minneapolis. I am currently serving in the Minnesota Air National Guard and a full-time student at the University of Minnesota studying Finance and Entrepreneurship. I want to start Real Estate investing as soon as possible. I am looking forward to expanding my network, meeting fellow investors, and learning as many lessons in any way I can. Happy to be a part of the community!

@Brian Leland Welcome to BiggerPockets - you're in the right place to learn everything you could ever desire regarding investing!
I'm in Minnetonka, Minnesota and work full-time as a General Contractor. I also have my MN Real Estate Broker license (though I use it almost exclusively for my own deals/market research). I started out in rehabbing (2011-2014), and after a break while starting up my construction company, got into buy and hold investing in 2018. Feel free to PM me if you have specific questions, or simply want to continue networking/brainstorming. I'd also be happy to grab coffee/lunch at some point in the future...once that's allowed!

Welcome Brian! In addition to our names being the same, I to attended the U of M. BP is a great place to connect and ask questions. In fact, through the connections I've made I was able to get my first property in December. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
Hi @Brian Leland, Welcome to BP :) Thank you for your service. I'm new to real estate investing myself.. I currently house hack a 3 unit multi in NH, also have 2 other doors as well. I learned a lot of what I know right here on BP. I listened to BP podcasts and nothing else for like 9 months straight. Goodluck on your journey!
