Good afternoon!

My name is John K. Eck, I am a Captain in the US Army and have 10 years of military service. I am new to Real Estate Investing and currently own one single family rental in Colorado Springs which was previously my primary residence while stationed in Colorado.

I became extremely interested in REI from my wife's aunt and uncle who also live in the COS area and have been investing in RE for many years, and have done very well for themselves. After countless conversations with them I began reading REI books in my free time to begin building my knowledgebase.

I finally decided to join BiggerPockets after months of watching BP videos on YouTube and reading article after article from BP and many other sources.

My main goal from REI is to be build a large enough RE portfolio, while finishing my military career, for my wife and I to become financially independent allowing us to focus solely on REI after my retirement.
