Newbie investor in Colorado Springs, CO

[Matt Ashton]

I am a military member and arrived here in Colorado Springs in Summer 2015.  I grew up in Arvada, CO and am happy to get back to CO after years away.   We intend to retire here so we will be here long term. 

Experience

I have one other single family rental in Texas that was previously my residence so that was an easy transition.  I attempted to invest in a multifamily in Pueblo a few years back but a bad inspection made the financials too risky and I walked away.  I was geographically separated at that point and it made the prospect of renovation too much to take on at that point.  

Real Estate Goals

I am most comfortable with single family residences but I am interested in multifamily and condo/townhome rentals as buy and hold as well.  Managing the properties is definitely not a passion of mine so I am interested in finding a good property manager to manage any future properties if possible.  

Currently Seeking

Investment opportunities in buy and hold real estate.  I have limited capital at the moment for seed money but I am actively working towards that goal.
