Transitioning Careers - Military retirement

Hello All ;

 I have been on BP for a while now  and decided to start my blog to formalize some of my immediate and long term goals and strategy on how to achieve them.

I will be going through a career transition year this year as I retire out of the military.To date I have followed the basic REI plan most military do, buying a residence in each major duty station, and then renting out after I leave (PCS).This with the eventual end state of having those properties augment my retirement income. I have followed this the past 19 + years and currently have 5 homes (4 rentals and my primary residence) spread out over 5 states.  This is not the the ideal management scenario going forward.

So my way ahead, and purpose behind this blog,is to develop my 2015 and beyond plan (both near term and long term goals ) and a viable course of action to achieve them.  The Blog will force me to hold myself accountable in public forum, and ensure I don’t procrastinate on certain items and take some emotion of it . Also to get feedback and advice on certain goals and deals as they occur.

My next post will outline some of my immediate and long term goals, along with a brief synopsis of each property and what I am thinking about doing with it
