Closing on my 151st unit in less than 24 months!
BP!
I would have never been able to do it without the BP community! I will be closing on my 151st unit in less than 24 months. If you told me I would have more than a 100 units when I first started looking into real estate I would have told you that you are crazy. The more I listened to the podcast the more my belief grew. I just kept thinking "if this person can do it then so can I!" I'm only 32 years old and feel like I am just getting started.
Anyway, I wanted to thank @Joshua Dorkin and @Brandon Turner for creating an environment for people like me that started from nothing to be able to move into this type of lifestyle and create passive income. The reason I started was to replace my wife's income so she could stay home with my two boys but now my whole household income has been replaced and I can continue to save my earnings for future deals and pay down debt.
Also I wanted to thank @Sean Tarpenning and @Account Closed for being such a great resource and partner with me. USREEB has really been like a separate family for me. I really wish I could make the holiday party but I have my family in town for our own! Ha. If you haven't checked them out it is a great turn key provider that can start people out right, which is exactly what it did for me!
People always ask me, What should I do? When should I do? How should I do? I always say, "In-desicion creates more loss than decision will ever." Meaning, what was my secret to scaling so quickly? It was just jumping in head first into it. I knew mistakes would come and I knew failures would come but I didn't care because I saw all the wealthy individuals I knew with real estate portfolios. I wasn't handed "a small loan of a million dollars" like our POTUS so I had to scrape and claw to get where I am today. It sounds corny but just know where you want to get and be relentless until you get there. I've learned there is always a way if you want to get it done but you have to be flexible and understand others points of view so you can meet in the middle. Remember there is no deal if there is no agreement.
My portfolio is a great accomplishment thus far but I am only getting started. I will be at 500 units before 2020 and once I get to that I will create a new goal. I just wanted to share with everyone that I got my early Christmas present!
Feel free to ask any questions as I am an open book and will try to respond as quickly as possible! Thanks again to everyone who has helped!
