Investor from Charleston Area

[David Lowe]

I have been listening to the podcasts and reading articles for years and decided its finally time to make an account.  I just moved to the North Charleston/Summerville area (from Marietta, GA).

I am building a real estate portfolio to generate passive income to allow me to do work in developing countries without having to fund raise. My wife and I have began investing about five years ago and currently own four investment properties. In the past, we looked for single-family properties in decent school zones as close cities as possible. This formula (good school + dense population) worked well in Marietta, but I'm still figuring out the market in Charleston.

@David Lowe, I'm interested in your work overseas. My wife and I have a similar strategy, we need to make more in order to give more. We just donated $2,500 to the Methari Slums Project, an outreach ministry sponsored by one of my best friend's churches. They bought two containers, books, and computers for a school there. I couldn't believe how much our $2,500 purchased. We want to do more!
