New Member from Suffolk VA and Port Huron MI!

[Kevin Freeman]

Hi Bigger Pockets!  I am Kevin Freeman and currently reside in Port Huron, MI.  Yes I know I said I was in Suffolk; I am in the process of relocating to Suffolk.  I will be there by November.   I own homes in both locations so....

I am retired from the US Navy, work full time (ugg!  Hence the reason why I am here!), and have a wonderful family.  My wife Tracey, and I, have eight children (no, that wasn't a typo!).  We foster and adopt, which is our "why".  We love raising children.  

Like I stated above, I own two homes, one of which is used as a rental.  My goal is to grow a substantial passive income from Real Estate and make money in other areas of RE outside of the basic "buy and hold" strategy.  While I probably know more than the average person about RE, I consider myself a total newbe and have so much to learn.  I discovered Bigger Pockets through he podcast and this is my first day on the site.  I have been consuming the podcast for about three weeks now.  

I am glad I found a group of like minded, encouraging people to surround myself with.  I look forward to learning and sharing with all of you.  Which leads me to my first forum question:  What is your favorite podcast episode (or forum thread!) and why?

Be blessed!

Kevin
