Introduction. 
Hello BP community, my name is Ken. I’m fairly new to the BP forums and BP site in general, But I have been very active on the podcasts and books stacking education and knowledge in the real estate field. Looking into going pro and want to make the best out of the opportunity and resources BP has to offer, and most important closing my next deal In the near future. I’ve been putting together plans, resources, partners that each can play unique roles in making a deal happen.

Deals. 
Me and my wife currently have a primary residence (Single Family) in AZ that we acquired with a V.A loan. We just moved across the country and our primary residence is now listed for rent through a property management company. Not rented as yet but we have a few potential tenants interested. 

Near goals. 
Create and put together a solid plan to acquire a new primary residence in Long Island NY (Riverhead). This will be between a duplex, triplex, or quadplex all depending on financial qualifications and resources to acquire. 

Skills/Qualifications/Recourses 
- Me and my uncle are local handymen in the long island area for over 10 years.  We will able to make light to medium renovations and have additional team  members available for more complex renovations. 
 - Military Veteran. 
- Access to the V.A Loan. 
- 10% on material  from Lowe’s/HomeDepot.
- Capital partner that can assist with cash as needed. 
- potential equity in primary residence 

Asks/Needs to achieve goals. 
- In need of assistance formulating a concrete plan to achieve goals.
- Assistance putting the knowledge and resources together to close next deal. 
- Looking to attend real estate meetups and expand network. 
- Locating and putting together the right  team that’s needed.
-  Joining communities and connecting with others on a similar path. 

Big Thanks to the BP community for helping many others I’ve heard on the podcasts achieving their real estate goals and dreams. I have heard alot of success stories where Bigger Pockets  was one of their main resources in achieving those Goals. I don’t plan on letting “Analysis Paralysis”, Fear, Lack of resources hold me back any longer for becoming more active in achieving MY Dreams as well. Any Advise, Guidance, Directions, Recommendations, Resources or Tools to get me any step closer is Highly appreciated. Good to officially meet the community and will be seeing you all around!! 
- Ken.
