Hello BP Friends,
I started investing in real estate in 2011 but became active since last year. I have become mostly full-time Real Estate investor now. I have 3 SFRs in mid-west and acquired a 9-unit in Dec'17 as well as closing on a duplex this month.
I am building relationship with some lenders as well as investors and they are always looking for brief history as well as bio @ my RE experience as well as expertise. How should I go about preparing a portfolio of my experience? Can someone recommend a website or if someone has a template I can leverage?
I love doing resumes and cover letters! I basically look at it is a having 2 pages to talk about myself and provide the most valuable information.
Bio, in your case, should describe the skills you've got along with some of the examples you've dealt with. To say that you can manage 12 units is one thing - to mention that you've turned over x units in x amount of time is another. What types of education have you had pertaining to real estate? Perhaps you can discuss, as an example, a complex financing deal you profited from.
