New Investor from Orting, WA
Hi everyone!
My name is Nicole Benton. I was born and raised in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado and my husband and I recently moved to Washington about a month ago. We are currently renting in Orting, WA while we look to buy a home.
I worked in the real estate industry for about 3 years in the property management sector. During that time, I developed an interest for investing in real estate and decided it’s finally time to pursue it! I was introduced to BiggerPockets through their podcasts, where I learned a wealth of information and was then introduced to this wonderful community.
My husband and I plan to begin investing in buy and hold rental properties (single family or small multifamily properties) in Kansas City, Missouri or Indianapolis, Indiana. Our main goal in investing in real estate is to obtain financial freedom.
Look forward to connecting!

Hi Nicole!
Welcome! We've achieved financial freedom through land investing. It's a powerful way to create passive income. If you want to know more, message me. Good luck!
