Newbie from Chattanooga

[Brighten Miller]

Howdy,

I am Brighten Miller and I recently retired from the Air Force and ended up in Chattanooga to be closer to family here in Tennassee, and North and South Carolina.

I currently own four rental properties (purchased as my primary residence at each of my stateside assignments over the years) and am looking into purchasing additional (primarily single family or duplex/triplex) properties here in Chattanooga/Ooltewah as investment properties.

I've been lurking on BiggerPockets for the last few months and even asked a question recently on the forums and decided that I should introduce myself.  Based on what I've learned here at BP and elsewhere, I have pretty much decided that I need to manage my properties better and utilize some asset protection strategies (LLCs and Land Trusts) about which I've recently learned.

I'm currently researching local CPAs and attornies as well as the many many online incorporation/LLC building websites as well as just reading BP articles and forums.
