New Member Intro: Wilmington, NC Broker/Investor

Real Estate Broker · Wilmington, NC · Member since 2020 · 10 posts · 4 votes

Hi all, my name is Danielle Gillespie and this is a long over due post!

I have been listening to BiggerPockets for YEARS and have finally decided to jump on board and find some really cool new people to connect with :). I am a second generation, real estate broker with a passion for helping others, building strong relationships and honestly just sharing the knowledge of real estate and how it can literally change your life! Can we all agree that real estate has in some way change your life, opened new doors or changed your perspective?! HECK YES!

I was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio (Go Bucks!), graduated from the University with my MBA in finance and started flipping homes in 2017. My husband and I packed up and moved many states south to the beach in 2018 because... well, why not move to the beach?! If you haven't visited Wilmington, NC add that to your long list of must see places because its truly an exquisite little city. Where else can you brewery hop with your dogs, eat the best ever Thai food from within a hut placed amongst gardens and flowing fountains, catch a ghost sighting within the historical downtown then run out and ride a killer wave and probably be greeted by some dolphins while you're at it!

I am a super dedicated real estate agent, I enjoy working with like minded people and honestly just love life! If there is anything in the world I can help you with, that would either make your day easier, get you one step closer to your goals or bring you happiness, I'm all about it. Lets grab coffee! (or beer or a virtual hangout, whatever you want).

Signing off,

Danielle Gillespie

    Welcome @Danielle Gillespie! Great to have some other NC based people represented. I'm in Greensboro myself, but lived in Wilmington for 2.5 years before moving for work.

    What are your goals on BiggerPockets? Are you hoping to grow your real estate broker business? Are you hoping to continue to flip homes? Are you doing that in Wilmington as well or another market?

    I'm always looking to connect with others and hear about what they have going on!

    Hey Danielle, 

    I’m always searching for deals anywhere from Sneads Ferry to Wilmington. 

    If you have access to great deals (on or off market) which will cash flow, please send them my way.

    Thanks and good luck!

    Thanks Nathan! Thanks for connecting! My goals for BiggerPockets are to make new connections both personally and professionally. I love creating new connections with other brokers for referral purposes but I especially like meeting people I can learn from or help them grow further. I am into the buy and hold investments with a concentration in STF. I am interested in other surrounding markets such as Jacksonville and Fayetteville as well as back in Toledo where I know its hot hot hot!

    Welcome to BP! Just closed on my first Toledo property this week. Are you tapped into the Toledo multifamily market for deals?

    @Danielle Gillespie Welcome to BP Danielle!

    I’m from Wilmington, NC so I know all about the things you mentioned. It is indeed a fun place to be and you never have to worry about being bored. I soo miss the fresh seafood

    I moved to Winston-Salem, NC in 2008 for undergrad and have been here ever since. I try and make it home at least twice a year.

    Glad to have another NC Investor!

    @Danielle Gillespie - That sounds exciting! I actually have a renovation going on in my basement right now that we are going to use as a short term rental house hack. Not exactly a condo at the beach, but maybe it will help me pay off my mortgage :)

    I would also love to stay informed if you find any deals that don't meet your criteria. I'm always interested in new opportunities and Wilmington is just a few hours down the road.

    @Zachary Metler

    Awesome! Congrats on your sale :) I have many many connections with great agents in Toledo I can connect you with one of them who is very tapped into the multifamily/ flipping world.
