Newbie from Bellevue Washington

[Mike Moore]

Good morning all,

I recently finished out my contract with the U.S. Marine Corps in November of 2017 and moved back home to the great state of Washington. For those of you who know the area, I grew up in Arlington, I live in Lynnwood, and I work now in Bellevue. I was fortunate enough to stumble upon real estate as my new passion and found employment within one of the best brokerages in the state, Venture Real Estate Group. I am new to the business and have a lot to learn however, I am hungry for knowledge and have a burning desire to become the best. As most of you know, why we do what we do is the most important part of our business and my personal "why" for real estate is the same reason I chose to leave the Marines, my family. 

Although I work for a brokerage, I am very interested in the wholesaling process as well as rental properties. I hope to be able to connect and learn from all you pros out there and thank you for welcoming me to this great community! Have a great rest of your week everyone!
