Good Morning BP!
My name is Matt and before anything else, I’m stoked to finally post this bio and share my intentions with you all.
I’m enlisted in the US Air Force. I’m an E-5 married to another enlisted military member and we are currently stationed overseas at Misawa Air Base, Japan. I work in the Command and Control career field. I am still unsure if the military is going to be my long term (20 year) plan but I’m here and making the most of it every day! I even started my own small-scale moving business here in Japan.
I’m young-ish (27) and extremely motivated to get started in real estate investing.
Throughout the last year or so, I’ve been doing a lot of research, (books, podcasts, YouTube) along with meeting face to face with several enlisted members with real estate experience, all in the name of procuring as much knowledge as possible before diving in head first to our first property.
We are primarily interested in small multi-family housing in the near future with aspirations of scaling to commercial multi-family within the next 5-10 years.
I’d be very interested in learning more from investors who have experience investing in military towns, having military tenants, investing from overseas locations, and obviously, other enlisted (or officers) military members. I am passively involved in the ADPI (Active Duty Passive Income) community as well.
Currently, I do not have a particular market I want to pursue. We’re currently awaiting our next assignment notification and want to have that knowledge before buying.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post. I look forward to hearing from you and attending countless BP meetups in the future!
Thank you,
Matt Teegarden
