Closed on my 2nd Rental Property!

I have officially CLOSED on my THIRD PROPERTY! In less than 6 months, I’ve purchased 2 rental properties this year (2022). This means I now own 3 properties!

I’m breaking EVERY curse of poverty in my family and building generational WEALTH!

I was born in the Calliope Housing Projects of New Orleans and raised by a single mother. Now, I’m a real estate investor playing real life Monopoly by buying up Texas!

I’m living proof that if I can do this, then others can too! 🏠 🏠 🏠

That is so awesome @Lawrence Briggs!!! Way to go for taking action and breaking the curse! Can you tell me a little bit more about your rental properties and what your actively going after for the next one?

Thank you so much!  @Cade Olof

I own a primary residence, and two single family rental properties. I’m a buy and hold investor. I go for properties that require very little rehab work, if any. I invest in Central Texas about 45 minutes from Austin. 

My next property will be either another single family property or duplex.

Awesome! So proud of you on so many levels! I know sooo many people who claim that they're gonna get in on this game called real estate investing. Years and years later, they're still singing the same tune with nothing. Also, you didn't let your low income background stop you from achieving what you want. You are the embodiment of the American Dream. I see big things for you in the future!

That's incredible, congratulations!!  I remember seeing you at the conference (arguably the best dressed attendee, I might add).  Keep it going!
