Investor from SoCal/OC

[Mitch Kronowit]

Hello Everyone,

My name is Mitch and I've been a landlord since 1997 when I started renting out my 2 BR condo in San Diego. My wife, Monika, and I live in our 3 BR SFR in Mission Viejo. We just recently purchased a 3 BR SFR out in Murrieta, CA, our second rental property. I am on the lookout for rental #3.

Just a little background on us: I am a California native, graduate of Cal State Fullerton (BS Physics) and the University of Phoenix (MBA Global Management). I spent 9 years active duty in the US Navy landing on aircraft carriers and teaching flight students how to fly jets (without killing themselves or I). The last 10 years I spent flying for United Airlines and am currently a stay-at-home Dad/part-time real estate investor waiting for either 1) my airline to pull its collective head out of its "posterior" and run a quality operation, or 2) make enough money in real estate that I never have to work for another crooked CEO the rest of my life.

Monika is a native of Poland and currently works in Newport Beach as a Registered Nurse. She was my rehab partner on our Murrieta property, i.e., I fixed the plumbing and electrical, she cleaned the house and planted the landscaping, and we both shared the painting, inside and out.

I'm glad I found this web site. I have probably spent over 50 hours on the Internet researching real estate topics and have found over 50% of the people out in the world are either phony or trying to sell me something that ISN'T real estate. I am looking forward to learning all I can from others and sharing what little I know with who ever I can help.

Thanks for reading.
