Kevin Perk is a full-time buy and hold and fix and flip real estate investor with over 15 years of experience. He and his wife Terron operate Kevron Properties, LLC, a boutique real estate investing company in Memphis, Tenn.

Experience

Originally from the Washington D.C. area, Kevin moved to Memphis to attend graduate school at The University of Memphis.
