New(ish) Member! Broker and Investor

[Devin Peterson]

Hi All,

I am finally getting around to introducing myself on the forums. I have been listening to the BP podcasts for years and following the great information this community has brought. A little about me, CT born but a Solfo man at heart! I lived in Miami for 5 years, graduated UM with BS in Economics. Currently living between St. Pete, FL and CT. I first started in the RE industry as LOA, since then I've held my MLO license for about 2 years now and I've loved every second of it.

My three passions are this. Mortgages, RE Investing, and Golf. I love the mortgage industry, not many people can stand it due to the complexity of its nature but if you ask my girlfriend, I literally crave the torture of working out a deal, she thinks I'm crazy! (In a loving way of course) I like the tough work of mortgage lending because its teaching me valuable lessons at the same time. No day is the same. I'll take on any deal a borrower or lead will present to me and find a way to make it work. I live for those challenges. Secondly, I live for the challenges of the mortgage and lending world so I can in turn share my knowledge and experience with world. And hopefully, provide some worthy examples of real life scenarios on how to make your mortgage experience easier, and REI a breeze!

I work with investors in all 50 states on deals. I primarily focus on beginner-medium/large investors with LLCs or individuals who have 1-50 rentals in their portfolio. I have been able to connect with the top non-bankable lenders, non-qm lenders, and DSCR wholesalers in the nation. So far, my web of connections through various account executives has been successful and I want to be there as a reliable mortgage broker partner for people.

On a personal note, my REI goals and strategies are focused on accumulating as many 2-4 units as possible through house hacking of primary financing. My girlfriend is finishing up her 2L year in law school, we established the goal of scaling our RE portfolio through this strategy all the way up to own massive commercial properties. (work smart, retire early, live fast, have fun!) I give myself one day a week to relax and let go of the world. Sundays are my golf days. You can catch me every Sunday morning (6AM most times!) getting 18 holes in. My number one goal in life is to complete the bucket list of my top 100 courses to travel to and play across the world.

And guess what!? RE investing is going to pay for it all!

Thanks All!
