Hello BP community!

My name is Jenee' Riedel and I have been lurking on BP website for month's. 

Yep!

A little green at everything. I am newly licensed Realtor focusing in Skagit County, Western Washington. Learning the technical side of 2014. And looking to enhance my life and career as a real estate investor with my husband.

My back ground in sales in the Building Industry has lead me to RE and towards the path of Real Estate Investing. Husband and I own a few buy and holds and are looking to increase in the same area. I hope to absorb as much info as I can and meet people to build long term relationships.  

Thank you for allowing me this opportunity. Looking forward to............the unknown.
