New investor

[Tobey Porter]

My wife & I just purchased our first 2 buy & hold rental properties & are excited to keep going. We like the buy & hold option but are also interested in attaining vacation properties we can not only rent out but can also use for our own family vacations. 

Investing for us is a means to an end. We have 4 children & have no interest in working into our 70s. We want to be able to retire when eligible & not look back!!

Congratulations @Christina R. and welcome @Ryan Van Fleet.  When I first joined BP I read A LOT of the articles that people posted to help me learn.  I paid (a handsome sum) for my education and, though it was great, it missed some tactical points that I needed to actually make this business work.  Although we have not "arrived," with 3 active lease options and 3 whole sale deals we are well on our way.
