Greetings from the wet and gray part of the country!

My husband and I purchased, rehabbed, and are now active landlords in the nearby low income neighborhood. It's the 10th and we ALMOST have all our rent due. It's more work, but the price was right, the cash flow is good, and we both want to help the poor have affordable housing.

We've been on this adventure for about 3 years, have struggled to find mentors and information, looking forward to spending some time on the great site!

    Hey Michele Fischer welcome! As wet and gray as it is for you... I bet it's worse where I am! ;) (I'm on the Coast, over near Aberdeen! Hello Neighbor!)

    Looking forward to seeing you around the site. Be sure to let us know how we can help you out. For a fun read, be sure to check out my article How to Be a Landlord: Ten Tips for Success and let me know what you think!

    Also - Be sure to set up some Keyword Alerts for some of the topics you are knowledgeable about, or other topics that interest you (like Landlord, Washington, Rehab, etc ) so you'll be notified that those words were mentioned in the forums and can jump into those conversations! It's also an awesome way to meet new people from your area when they introduce themselves to this forum!

    Oh - and we are going to be having a Pacific NW BiggerPockets Meetup sometime this month! Make sure one of your "keyword Alerts" is set for "Washington" so you'll be notified when I announce it!
