Hello all,

I have lived in Seattle since 2004. My interest in RE investing grew out of the habit of renting vacation units by owner during family trips. My wife and I thought this would be a great way to maintain a vacation property for our use, as well as generate cash flow.

That prompted more research which led me to BP. I've been listening to the podcasts and watched the youtube channel. I'm still early in my "homework" but have been reading actively and trying to soak up knowledge.

My wife and I are primarily interested in vacation units and long term rentals. If anyone knows West Seattle, we like the Alki Beach area due to its proximity and desirable location. I work a secure job with a good income to support our investing.

I see there are several people here from WA and am looking forward to hearing your experiences.

Matt
