Let me introduce myself

Well I figured I should hope on here and introduce myself.  My name is Jason and I am currently working as a Service Advisor for Mercedes-Benz.  

I have been in the military now for almost 20 years, 12 active duty and 7 in the National Guard.  I have been a real estate agent in the past (2005-2007), I used to buy land and set it up for builders.  

I have always loved real estate and I have decided to get back into it. I have been doing a lot of research and the BRRRR strategy has really caught my attention. I am looking forward to starting my next chapter in life and in real estate.

I am excited to participating in the forums and appreciate any feedback, tips and strategies that come my way.  I hope to meeting some great people here on this site, so far it seems to have a wealth of information.  Thanks for your time.

I second checking out Fixated on Real estate - I've been pleased with the networking and speakers we've seen there so far!

    @Jason Allaway hello and thank you for your service! My husband is in the Navy and we live in Tacoma as well. Fixated on real estate does meetups here and in Seattle, can’t speak for them personally as I haven’t gone yet, but I’m hoping to make one soon!

    Thanks for the info, I will definitely get to work on reading the Beginner's Guide and thank you to all that have replied.  I agree Tacoma is its own animal and I will definitely check out the BP group here in Tacoma.  For some reason @name is not working for me, I am sure I am doing something wrong.

    Welcome to BP! Tons of free resources here. There was a few podcasts on the BRRRR that might be of interest to you.
