My first Post Ever! Hmmm... this isn't so bad, so far so good!

Greetings Active Rain, This is my first post I have ever written and needless to say I'm a little apprehensive to start. I've been told by those in the know that I need to find my voice and write about what sparks the passion in me. Well, I didn't realize that I had lost my voice to begin with but blogging laryngitis is something I will try hard to overcome.

I do know that I am very passionate about investment Real Estate and I hope to share some of my knowledge and experiences with all of you. I'm also very excited to read all the wonderful posts I hear such good things about here on Active Rain.

As a newbie I'm sure I'll make mistakes here and there but I will try my best to provide informative, current, and comprehensive information about Investment, Hawaii and International Real Estate. I look forward to meeting new friends and possibly finding clients along the way, Aloha!

Thanks for reading my first post!

Yours truly Lawrence Van Hoey(RA,CIPS),

And thank you Kimo Stowell for helping me get my feet wet!
