I have officially CLOSED on my SECOND PROPERTY—a single family home, investment rental. This means that I now own two properties in Texas!

It only takes that one family member to start the generational wealth cycle; I am that person! Born and raised in New Orleans, by a single mother!

All of you have been so supportive! I really appreciate it! My goal in life is to inspire at least one person to take action with real estate investing. If I can, they will too! I would like to network with all of you like minded-people :)
