New member intro: Central ish Virginia

[David Ebersole]

Hey guys. I'm Dave. New to the forums, but have been listening to the BP Podcast since January of 2022. Finally got on the forums and here I am. I'm a Active Service member in the Virginia Air Guard and looking to expand my portfolio. I currently have two rental properties under my VA Loans and looking to buy a 2-4 plex with my remaining balance and house hack. With where I live, I could buy anywhere between Richmond and Newport News. I love the fact that I'm investing and so far so good. I know not everything will be a home run, but I can retire from the Guard in 3-5 years and am trying to set myself up for retirement. Eventually, I'd like to leave my kids (4 of them) with a home they can live in, or rent out, and have homes for the family to be financially secure after I leave this world.

There is a wealth of knowledge here, and I've gained a lot from listening to the pod casts over the past 1.5 years.  I look forward to potentially meeting like minded people in the area and continuing my investing journey and growing my portfolio.
