Hello everyone,
My name is Diego and I recently moved to Austin, Texas. I am a recent grad from Florida State and just got a job here in Austin as a software developer / web designer for General Motors. I have always been interested in Real Estate because it is a great way to create passive income with rental properties.
I am 22 years old but with my new salary I am ready to save as much as possible and look forward to buying my first property next year, probably January.
In addition, I am into personal growth and always reading books on building wealth.
I have been checking out the forums and the blog posts and they are awesome! I have also listen to nearly all the BP podcasts.
I just moved to Austin myself and am new to real estate investing as well. Way to go Diego! 22 and already thinking about the future and real estate. You are ahead of the game my friend. Good luck, and maybe I'll see you around at one of the investor meetups.
I only wish i had started at 22. My first investment property was when i was 28. I remember i had read and read so much info for about a year and a half before I finally pulled the trigger. I have a house now in Round Rock, Del Valle and currently have one under contract right now in HOT east Austin near Mueller. And im still super excited about investing in real estate!
Please be looking out for my colleague request for the people here in Austin. I definitely want to connect with you and learn about your experience in Real Estate.
Welcome Diego Corzo! I'm a relatively new investor out in Hawaii, but have been looking for an opportunity to spend a couple months in Austin flipping a property or two.
Good luck with your REI career, sounds like you're on the right path.
