Hi yall!
Newbie and aspiring real estate investor here dropping in to introduce myself. I am 24 years old and currently live in Austin, Texas (originally from Arlington, Texas). Since my senior year of college in 2018, I've spent my downtime educating myself to prepare for my deal in anyway I can from listening to biggerpockets non-stop to reading material such as "The Book On Rental Property Investing" by Brandon Turner. I just recently hit one one year at my first job out of college in SF real estate acquisitions as an analyst. My desire to invest in real estate has fueled a lot of my decisions including career choice to learn as much as I can about the industry.
It took me a while to make it over the forums but glad to be here and look forward to meet as many of you.
Side note: I have been saving and will be ready to purchase my first deal/house hack at the end of this year. I am still in the beginning stages - talking to different agents and debating between Dallas or Austin. Feel free to leave recommendations for estate agents who are investor friendly/savy (preferably have their own portfolio) in either of these cities. I'd love to chat with them. Thanks!
