Thanks!

@Todd Blank thanks for the info! My rental in my home town is between tenets so I am currently working to get that back into shape. They really did a number on it! I have family in the cities so I am there often, I am definitely open to meet ups and anything that can further my education/networking. Thanks again!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

So far I have explored the site quite a bit! I have to admit I am kind of addicted to the Podcast! I have already listened to the first 50 episodes! This is the best way to spend your time driving, in my opinion. You can listen to them at 2x speed on the ipod and get in twice the podcast in the same amount of time, it's great!

Thanks again!

Hello BiggerPockets!

I am so excited to be here! My name is Erik Stewart and I am a relatively new investor from the Moorhead, Minnesota area (Fargo, North Dakota as well). I got my start in real estate during college by purchasing a single family home in 2009 in Moorhead and renting out rooms to a few friends. Later that year I bought another single family home in my home town, a population of 2,000, to gain experience in renovation and being a landlord. Flash forward 6 years and I now have a beautiful fiancé, promising career, and a non-friendly (but sometimes cute) chihuahua but not another property!

I have learned, mostly the hard way, that owning real estate can be, at times, maddening but very rewarding. I still have a long road ahead, however, thus why I am eager to join this community! I am ready to revive my real estate investing, converse with the like-minded, and learn from the many established investors taking the time to give back!

Any questions, comments, etc. would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Erik
