Hello BP Community,

My name is Kim and I'm from Minneapolis, MN.  I've been devouring podcasts like no one's business and finally decided to see what Brandon and Josh are always talking about.  Looks like a great resource and I'm really excited to build on my education here.  For my day job, I manage corporate accounts for my company selling industrial equipment into various markets.

Currently, my husband and I own 2 properties - the home we live in and a short term vacation rental. We just purchased the STR recently and are doing well so far - very excited for the potential here.

We want to get into long term rentals to create some passive income.  Currently, I'm looking at single family homes and small multi-families (duplex, tri and 4plex).  I need to find a realtor to show us some of the properties in our area and am excited to connect with people on this site.

My husband and I have a decent amount of experience with rehabs/renovations being that we torn down and built our Taj Ma-garage and did most of the work on a second story addition.  I do a lot of the design work and GC-ing as I have a background in engineering and basically nerd out over rehabs and building materials.  My husband has worked in the construction industry off and on since he was 16.  He nerds out over finish carpentry - we milled, finished and installed all the trim for our second story addition to match the rest of our 100+ year old house.  We're both obsessed with nice woodwork - it's a problem.

Mostly, I'm just excited to dive into Real Estate Investing. We've been talking about this for a long time and we finally took the first step with our STR and now we want to keep the momentum going.

Thanks everyone!
