🛑 PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT monitor my BiggerPockets DM's, but I am a networking BEAST!! Call (678-532-8870), email ([email protected]), or reach me on LinkedIn, TikTok, or Instagram below. 🛑 I lead a consortium of private lenders putting capital to work to fund the next generation of U.S. rehabbers, builders, and developers committed to creating quality affordable housing. The shortage of affordable housing costs the U.S. economy an estimated $2 trillion a year in lower wages and productivity! And, making housing affordable is the most cost-effective strategy for reducing childhood poverty and increasing economic mobility. We have funded over $5 million in private loans, and we're eager to double that within the next 8 months. If you're considering deploying funds from a self-directed IRA or 401(k) funds from a previous employer, let's chat. #DoWellDoingGOOD I started real estate investing in 1999 and by 2006 had amassed a multi-million dollar rental portfolio. Then, in 2007, I was promptly and utterly crushed during the Real Estate Bubble and Great Recession and had to begin again! I’ve worked with joint venture partners and investors from New York City to San Francisco to Houston, from South Korea to Israel to France, helping them do deals and acquire high cash flow real estate across the U.S. I've landed coverage in numerous print and broadcast outlets, including the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, U.S. News & World Report, Black Enterprise Magazine and WSB-Radio. I hold a baccalaureate degree in Electrical Engineering from MIT and a master's in Computer Science from The University of Southern California.
