Greetings,

My name is Tim Campbell. I have a full time job as a Restaurant General Manager. I've been a long time lurker on the B.P. Forums and a weekly listner to the B.P. Podcast.

I am a Veteran of The Marine Corps and I am wanting to use my VA Loan to buy a multi-family home to live in and rent out as my first deal.

My Goals:

  • Make a posivite impact on the communities where I live and work.
  • Become financially independent so that I can focus on my family and travelling.
  • Complete my first deal before the end of 2016.
  • Earn my Ohio Real Estate License.
  • Own 10 units within five years.
  • Create a Net Worth of $1.5 million within 10 years.

@Timothy Campbell, Welcome.  Great market you are moving into.  Take your time and become familiar with the many distinct markets within the Cincinnati Metro area; as you may or may not know, the city has an East side and a West side that are quite distinct and then the various beltways around the city provide for other distinction.  I believe it is important to have a plan and that it is ok to test that plan and change it from time to time.  There are many good people in this market who are willing to help you along the way.  Let me know if I can help you with a list of several brokers who are investor friendly, if that is what you want.  Hyde Park is overpriced; it is a very nice area but you can certainly find quality places near there in such places as Oakley, Walnut Hills and Norwood.  All are centrally located.  Thanks for your service to our country.  I know that your experience will serve you well.  Best wishes.
