Hello Bigger Pockets! - STR and general real estate novice

[Aidan Downey]

Hi my name is Aidan!
🌎 I am based in Charleston SC looking to invest and explore locally and currently also interested in: Blue Ridge Mountains, Cape Cod, New England, Ski stays, hunting lodges or outdoor enthusiast stays in the low-country of SC, commercial properties and really anything I may find interesting.

💫 I am joining bigger pockets to learn first and foremost, I almost bought a property with family assistance earlier this year in Charleston but it didn't feel right.

🏠 I have been interested for a while in becoming a Homeowner myself or getting my mom an upgraded home from her condo. My knowledge and interest in the STR industry has particularly skyrocketed in the past 9 months since starting employment at the number 1 PMS for Short Term Rental operators: Hostaway (we can count this as DISCLAIMER: I work at Hostaway). That being said I am not here on behalf of work  and still see the world as my oyster as far as my future in real estate. I have heard wonderful things about Bigger Pockets from friends, coworkers, clients, and Brandon Turner's book, and really just want to experience and learn as much as I can!
