Amazing!  It took a lot of vision and persistence to bring that project to completion.  I'm inspired.

Welcome, Robert. My husband and I are in Charleston as well. We began in real estate by buying and renting a house every time the Navy moved me. Now I will be getting out of the Navy to teach Chemistry, but the likelihood of building financial freedom as a college professor is limited. I agree with you that rentals are a great way to invest. Let me know if you ever need any help.

Hi all,

Thanks for the warm welcome. I am so impressed that I just referred an associate to the site! By the way, my husband and I just filed our LLC paperwork with SC state; Integrity Home Partners LLC! Thanks for all the info so far, I hope I can contribute more in the near future.

Hi @Marcus Brown, welcome to BP. I'm an REI in Summerville, and would be happy to share any advice. My husband and I have a couple rentals. They have made great long-term assets.

We are now looking to do our first rehab in the Summerville area this summer. Good luck and welcome!

Good afternoon, and nice to meet y'all,

I have been following a few posts on this site for a couple weeks, and I am really impressed with the knowledge and sense of community here at BiggerPockets. I feel lucky to become a part of it!

I am former chemist and Naval Officer getting ready to retire from the service to start a small real estate investment company with my husband, Robert Gouthro. We currently own 3 rental properties along the Atlantic coast near bases where I was stationed. Though our REI experience is limited, we are now looking to rehab small single family homes in the greater Charleston area in the $80-150k range.

We also enjoy teaching karate and judo in our spare time and live by the concept of mutual welfare and benefit. That is one of the foundations of our fledgling company and seems to be a guiding principle at BiggerPockets. That said, please let me know if I can ever be of assistance, and I look forward to getting to know many of you as we grow our businesses!

Very respectfully,

Lisa Capriotti
