First post, in the Education and saving stage of rental property investments.

[Triston Blodgett]

Really just wanted to start getting into the community, my name is Triston Blodgett. Im a veteran that served a term for the United States Airforce as a sheet metal mechanic working on the C-130s. I've been out for 5 or 6 years now, I've always had a bigger vision for financial freedom , just not quite sure how I would get there. I have a construction background specifically roofing. I've also always had a passion for owning and being my own boss. I grew up with grandparents and a father that built, managed and invested in property. Everything from a 9 door commercial building to 24 unit apartment building and a dozen or so of single family homes. At a young age I saw how difficult but also rewarding the property investment world is. at this stage im her on bigger pockets, reading Brandon Turners "Rental Property Investing" and daily listening to the groups podcasts. My struggle right no is the savings account. I am learning creative financing, keeping an ear out for team members and watching how to lock market is going. Any and all advice , tips or tricks are welcomed! I just wanted to say hello and thank you for this opportunity to learn! Also looking forward to meeting and talking with the Bigger Pockets community!
