Matt,I can't speak for the residential space, but for commercial transactions (especially multifamily and retail), I highly recommend Matt Hollander of BluePoint Commercial up in Marin County.

The reason I put "unique lifestyle" in the subject is because I am a Merchant Mariner.

As far as investing back in TN, I actually have a good POC (fellow Marine Officer) for a turnkey company that specializes in SFR purchases with IRAs, either traditional or Roth and so I am actually working with them right now as well to purchase my second property in Memphis using my Roth IRA.

I'm transitioning from the Marine Corps next summer and looking to buy and hold as well. 

If they don’t, I’d say “you have 24 hours to get your **** out of my house or I’ll take it out for you” ...this is a Marine’s mindset hahaha

Marin resident (Mill Valley and Sausalito) since 1994.  

I am a prior Marine and Law Enforcement Officer. 

I'm looking to invest in CC due to my son being a Marine Pilot in training there, and he will be heading up my efforts in the market.
