Hey Colorado Springs, I’d like to invite all active duty, reservists, and veterans to join me for a new local meetup focused on connecting like-minded military real estate investors! My intent with this meetup is to support military members in their pursuit of real estate investing and financial freedom. This meetup is completely FREE with no sales pitch included. Just a space for everyone to come together, share their experience and knowledge, and foster mutually beneficial relationships. It will primarily be a time of networking and learning from each other, but depending on how the group grows, I may look at bringing in speakers for each meetup.
I'd like to make this a monthly meetup, so I need the BP communities help to spread the word to get this meetup started strong!
Future discussion topics include:
- Basics of investing while in the military
- Comparison of loan types
- Investing strategies
- Renting vs Buying in various markets
- Investing while oversea’s
- How to invest in real estate using your Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)
- Finding a Property Manager when you PCS
About Me: I was born and raised in Upstate New York before going down to Oklahoma for college where I studied mechanical engineering while also participating in Air Force ROTC. After graduation, I commissioned into the Air Force and was stationed at Schriever AFB in Colorado Springs, CO. Then, at about my 3 year mark in the Air Force I had the opportunity to transfer into the United Stated Space Force. During my time in the Air Force and Space Force I worked as a satellite operator and commander for the GPS satellite constellation (2 SOPS). It was during my first few years in the military that I discovered real estate investing and it has changed my life since. In a few short years my wife and I have gone from 1 door to 12 doors with a balanced portfolio of long term rentals and short term rentals (Airbnbs). We are well on our way to financial freedom and my desire now is to help others get there too!
