Brand new investor relocating to Chattanooga TN!
Hey everyone! My name is Ray and I've been following BiggerPockets for around a year now, learning everything I can. I'm 32 years old and am a district manager in the restaurant industry, as well as an Army Veteran.
So far I own 1 property that I used a VA loan on last year in Kentucky and will be relocating to Chattanooga TN in a couple months for work. Fortunately I had learned just enough before I purchased this house that It will rent with a cash flow of over 300/mo even though that was not the intention when I purchased it.
Over the next few years, I plan to purchase at a minimum of 1 property a year as I build my portfolio and plan to transition into large multifamilies after I gain more experience.
I plan to try a little bit of everything to find what I like most. My first goal is to build my Team in Chattanooga and start with a BRRRR by next year.
I look forward to getting to know you all and be as much help as possible as we all grow our businesses!

Welcome to Chattanooga Raymond! Its a great market to start in. Chattanooga has a great community of investors as well with a couple of meetups.
