New Member in Orlando, Fl

[DeAndre Strong]

My name is DeAndre Strong. I just moved to Orlando, Fl area about 3 months ago.  I'm a Mechanical Engineer by education and occupation.  I've always had a interest in real estate because I see the great opportunities it has.  I'm really interested in multi-family units as well as single family homes.  My future goals is to own a portfolio of rental properties.  I'm looking to purchase my first property, so this year I started saving towards that goal.  In the meantime, I'm trying to read as much as I can and learn as much as I can before that time comes.  I also want to meet local investors in the area that I can learn from and develop professional contacts.  I'm excited about this journey and can't wait until I get my first deal!

@DeAndre Strong - welcome to BP and Orlando area.  I live in Winter Garden.  I love the area.  I grew up there and have enjoyed seeing it blossom over the years.  I'm a general contractor who's also interested in real estate investing but I'm mostly preoccupied with getting my own contracting business off the ground so if you want a licensed contractor to ride shot gun with you when you get to the due diligence stage I'll help you out with home inspections totally free of charge for in property in Winter Garden.  That way I get to trade my knowledge and services for exposure to investor deals which I can learn from towards my own future RE goals. 

Same goes for any investor in Winter Garden. Hit me up.
