Congrats Brother! I'll be following this post. I'm looking into possibly getting stationed out there. How's the area in regards to Ft. Carson? Any recommendations?

 Hi Eboni,

I have been looking through Zillow primarily. However, I have been to a couple of real estate agencies such as Weichert and Keller Williams for any sales. I have been primarily looking into the Dupont and Lacey area due to the vicinity to JBLM. I have a SFH currently and is generating a modest income stream monthly. However, I'm open to any suggestions you have and your expertise.You can Message me any details. Thanks for the introduction. I truly hope to hear from you soon!

 Ryland,

Thanks for the heads up. I'm wondering where did you find the article that stated that JBLM will be losing 16,000 jobs? Just out of curiosity! Thanks for the heads up and post!

Hello Michael,

Welcome to our BP community .  Thank you for all that you do a serving our nation .

Seattle Tacoma and Olympia all have REI group meetings that you may be interested in attending some of them if you're in the area. I don't know if you're on deployment.

Let us know your criteria for what you're looking for in the way of a home so that your local BP Community can help you find what you need. Do you want a Turn-Key ready, a lipstick or a full-blown rehab?

Again thank you and I wish you the best of luck with your investing.

 Hello Naomi,

Thanks for the great Intro! I'm currently stationed in El Paso, Tx, however, I do miss Washington! I'm definitely looking for another property sometime next year around January-February time frame within the Hawks Prairie/Meridian Campus area of Lacey and Dupont. 

The kind of properties I'm looking are SFH, turn-key, duplexes, and/or moderate rehab. I hope to gain some of your insight and possible even do a deal with you! Thanks!

--Michael

@Cj Juan Thanks for the Intro! I will definitely keep you in my contacts. I'm very much interested in the Hawks Prairie/Meridian Campus area of Lacey and Dupont. Once I have a property out there and will need a GC, I will definitely think about you and your team. I'm currently stationed out in El Paso, however, I do plan on coming back to Washington. 

Looked through your website and I'm impressed with your projects. Great work!

My name is Michael. I'm 27 and currently working full-time as a Registered Nurse. I'm currently specialized in Peri-Operative Nursing and working for the U.S. Army. I have been humbled and in awe of the BP community. Utilizing this forum can provide almost unlimited resources and guidance for me to start my journey in REI.

I'm very much interested in the Buy-and-Hold aspect of REI, with the goal of attaining 5 properties within 10 years. I currently have 1 SFH in Lacey. I have been looking primarily in Lacey and Dupont, Washington with the intent of returning back to Washington after I retire from the Army.

However, my dream is to be back home in sunny side San Diego. Once I can accomplish my goal of attaining and maintaining 5 rental properties in Lacey/Dupont, I will certainly find a wonderful property to permanently call home!

I will definitely learn a lot from you all, but most importantly, I will be humbled to enjoy this journey. I hope to hear from you all soon and listen to all of your experiences!

----Michael
