So I Made A BP *Things Are Getting Serious*

Greetings Family, 

My name is Kyshawn King, (Age 26 at the time of the forum) . I started my Journey at the age of 18 in Rocky Mount, NC. Where I almost made $10K in a few weeks. ( almost blew my mind ) Fast worded I now own 1 property in Waldorf, MD. I bought that property for my mother in 2019 after serving my time in the Army. I look forward to learning a lot about the BRRRR method, as well as other powerful methods to increase the velocity of my money.

I look forward to meeting new friends 

Respectfully,

Kyshawn

Welcome to the forums!  At your age, if you're comfortable with the idea of roommates or getting a 4-plex and living in one of the units, I'd do that.  Having other people pay your mortgage expense will accelerate your wealth creation.

Hey Kyshawn,

We have traveled in some of the same places. I went to College at NC Wesleyan in Rocky Mount, NC. And I was also stationed at Ft Hood, TX which you know is in Killeen. Good luck on your journey. I wish I had started out at your age.

Putting your VA loan benefit to work will be a great way to house hack and grow your portfolio. I have three rentals and one primary. Three of the properties are with VA loans. I'm free to chat if you want to learn more about it.

I wish you all the best!

Thank you for the reply! I have 1 single family that I'm renting right now with the va loan and in the process of buying a second. I didn't learn about the house hacking idea until it was too late and I don't really Wana refinance right now because of the interest rates. But I wish I wouldve thought of it before!
