Set yourself up for success: Here is everything I wish I knew BEFORE I purchased my first home.
As a first time home buyer, you're likely entering a world that is completely foreign to you. When you are buying a home for the first time...Everyone that gives you advice has different opinions to offer; and to make matters even worse, much of it conflicts with each other.
If I could go back in time and give my younger self a little bit of advice, here are all of the things I would tell myself.

About Ryan Ingram:
I believe the meaning of life is to become the best version of yourself for the benefit of all those around you.
Over the past 3 years, I have made drastic improvements to my life. Mainly, because my wife and I had our son; it was very important for us that she be a stay at home mom.
Unfortunately, on my salary in law enforcement, I couldn't make that happen.
I questioned my abilities as a provider, and for a brief time, even as a man.
I dedicated myself to read one book per day until I learned how to solve this problem.
3 years later, we have a few businesses and over 60 rental properties.
We made sacrifices along the way, but I learned the power of mentorship. I know the importance of finding someone willing to help and guide you, even if they are just a few steps ahead.
