Investing in Colorado

[Kristine Groemping]

Good morning everyone! 

My name is Kristine and I'm new to BiggerPockets. I'm an active duty Navy Nurse in San Diego, CA and I'm interested in both real estate investing and making a career change to being a real estate agent, while using travel nursing as my primary income.  I made the bold request to resign from the Navy and decided to move to Colorado once I'm out.  My husband and I are interested in investing in the Colorado Springs area.  We're thinking flip and fix, rentals, and/or airbnb depending on the market.  Even willing to get super creative and live in an RV while travel nursing and buying properties.

Questions:

1. Any recommendation on real estate agents?

2. Real estate companies to work for as a newbie?

3. Advice on investing in Colorado Springs or Colorado in general.  

Thank you in advance. I listen to the podcast everyday and love it!  I can't wait to meet and start networking with the people of this community.  Have a great day!

Sincerely,

Kristine

Hi! My husband and I live in the Springs with our four kids. And get this...we lived full time in an RV for four year before settling and investing here! We absolutely love it here although we overall prefer road life. The Springs has been good to us. We own a handful of properties and are currently converting one of our LTR to short term. We also househack a duplex (best decision ever financially) but will most likely buy another property and turn our side into an Airbnb. Best of luck!!
