About myself
Sometimes you stumble into things and don't realize what you found. My first house was purchased via creative financing, but I didn't know it. After that I wanted to get into management, and as the situation would afford, I found myself managing hotels for thirteen years. Part of that time I became a troubleshooter, opening manager, opening specialist for corporate, and was later trained to manage multiple properties. As luck would have it, I also went to work for a hotel flipper and holder. Since I started in the hotel business, my interest in real estate has grown. I became a loan originator, a home preservation specialist and a bankruptcy specialist for a bank. My secondary interest is in the insurance business. With retirement much better in sight than in the beginning days, not only do I want to build my retirement future through my residuals in insurance, but I also want to have a vast empire of multi-unit properties, such as hotels, but also wholesaling, and single family rental units. Now that I have decided to permanently plant my feet, and have accumulated the experiences in the real estate arena, including some negative ones, I want to get started building my portfolio. I have found I can't do it alone, but now I know what team to have. We all learn from each other, so let's work together to help each other.
