@kevin Scanlon

Scanlon! Such a small world!! I'm always very impressed with your rehab work. I enjoy the posts on FB. I hope all is well. Figured I'd finally give this a shot and try to network/ learn more from the people who have taken the plunge. We just went into escrow on a condo on Kauai with super low HOA fees. I almost committed to a home on Judson ave for a rental but decided it wasn't the right fit for my first one.

Hello all, I’m new to the Bigger Pockets community. I have been listening to the podcast and reading suggested books for quite some time now. 

I am originally from Mystic, CT currently active duty Military with 8 years left before retirement and I started looking into real estate investing as a way to augment our retirement income. Our target areas for property are Kauai, San Diego, and Mystic CT.

Up until now my wife and I have purchased and sold two homes utilizing VA benefits for a small profit and recently went into a small under budget rental in hopes of purchaseing a rental property. We just got an offer accepted on a Condo on Kauai and our next move is to purchase a multi family in the Beaverton, OR area.

I’m hoping to network and gain valuable insight from this forum as well as provide any personal success and challenge experience from the standpoint of an active duty military member who has purchased and sold multiple homes.
