a curious, excited, potential investor who owns nothing yet
hey guys. I live in Tulsa Oklahoma (south Tulsa specifically). I am married with 2 little girls and 2 dogs. I work as a lead product manager at Lumen technologies. In 2019 my wife and I moved from our home in Broken Arrow to south Tulsa. During the process of securing the loan for our new home the bank asked me if I was going to keep my original home in Broken Arrow or sell it. The question caught me off guard and for a brief period we considered renting our original home. We did not end up doing it (for which I am very grateful now because I knew nothing about renting at the time and now think it would have ruined me for ever renting in the future) however it planted a thought in the back of my head that drove me to do some reading now in 2021. I picked up Brandon Turner's "Rental Property Investing" and additionally started listening to the bigger pockets podcast.
My hopes for real estate investing are to eventually (years from now) secure a semi-passive income stream that requires minimal hands on management. I have hopes then of spending much more time with my family and on my passions for media production. Currently I have no investment properties but I have started formulating a timeline and a plan that starts with me buying one in the first part of 2022.

@Owen Hawbaker, You're starting out with the exact same number of properties that everyone else did. Zero. Educate yourself and jump in when you're ready. This site has a wealth of information.
