Mike Roy

Mike Roy is a multifamily real estate investor, licensed real estate agent, active house hacker, and personal finance/early retirement enthusiast. He earned a Master's Degree from the University of Massachusetts before embarking on a decade-long corporate sales career that included attaining his "dream job" in professional sports with the Tampa Bay Rays. It was there he learned that even the job of your dreams demands that you trade your precious time, family relationships and personal freedom for money. Mike's search for a better way forward brought him to BiggerPockets in 2012. Soon after, he began his own journey toward financial independence through income producing real estate, a goal he accomplished in 2019 at the age of 38. Mike spends his newfound freedom on his most meaningful pursuits: being a loving, attentive husband and father; continuing to learn and grow as a real estate investor; and guiding others toward financial independence through personal finance mastery and acquisition of income producing real estate.
