Snohomish County Area REALTOR® and Brand New RE Investor

[Debbie Welch]

Hello!! My name is Debbie. My husband, Todd, and I are brand new real estate investors. Our first offer was accepted on our first property last week - a studio condo in Everett, WA. We plan on using it as a mid-term business and healthcare professional furnished rental.

🌎 My husband and I live in Lake Stevens, WA. I'm from the area, but he is a retired Navy transplant from KY. We're looking to invest in the W WA area, but also in areas near our out-of-state kiddos. First will be in the Dallas, TX area.

💫 I joined BiggerPockets to get the highly specialized education for our personal use, but also to be well-educated to help my investor clients. As I have learned, not all real estate agents know real estate investing. Making local investor relationships is also a high priority!! We're so happy to be here!

🤪 My fun fact: Our Covid purchase was a camp lot out in Gold Bar. I thought it was such a novel idea to purchase a get-away spot, not knowing how long Covid would keep us from traveling. Not so novel, I found out later. ;) We bought a lot and a 36' RV (they had to deliver and it will never move...our Highlander won't come close to towing). It's our easy getaway in the woods for peace and relaxation!

Hope to connect with many of you soon!
