James Masotti has been investing in real estate since 2010 when he converted his primary residence in Wilmington, DE to a rental. Since then James has acquired a total of 15 rental properties, using private lenders, and completed one flip. Currently James is focusing time on improving the operational performance of his portfolio, before increasing his acquisition activity. For more background on James’ real estate investing to this point check out BiggerPockets Podcast Episode 312.
James’ full-time occupation is as a supply chain professional. He currently works for a $1.8B Belgian food company as the US Supply Chain Planning Manager. James has also previously worked in logistics, warehouse operations, supply and demand planning, procurement, and the implementation of software systems for Amazon.com, Campbell Soup Company, Perry Videx, and CSB-System International. James is recognized leader in the supply chain profession having presented at conferences in the United States and South Africa. James has been an active volunteer in the supply chain profession since 2011 and has greatly enjoyed being a regular guest lecturer at several universities on supply chain topics. James currently lives in Washington Township, New Jersey (not to be confused with the Township of Washington) with his wife Kaitlyn, their 8 month old daughter Keira, and dog CJ.
The little bit of free time James manages to find he spends at real estate networking events, with friends, playing board games, and after a 10 year hiatus has recently gotten back into competitive bowling.
Just saw a sneak-peak of the slides... its going to be an awesome presentation!
Seems great for those looking for tips to get started! See you tomorrow!
Also I got a question if this was only for passaic county? No, I am an investor from Bergen County, and we have people coming all the way from philadelphia, so if you have some time, come on out and learn from and network with your fellow investors!
A big thanks to everyone who came out and suffered through my presentation. At least you had the opportunity to hear from @Darren Sager to make up for it!
