Ruth Lyons

After 25 years in the corporate world, I semi-retired and started investing in real estate. I moved my 401K to a SDIRA in September 2015 and started buying investment properties. And LOVED it! My personal portfolio is full and I now help other investors acquire cash-flowing rentals and fix and flip properties. I'm a licensed Realtor in the state of Maryland. I'm also a freelance real estate researcher/writer with real estate and personal finance articles published here: https://investorjunkie.com/author/rlyons/ Experience: I own 6 rental properties in Maryland and 1 in North Carolina. I've helped nearly a dozen investors find and acquire properties for their portfolios. Because of my personal experience doing a few fix and flips and setting up my rental portfolio, I have helped my investor clients analyze deals, find the diamonds in the rough, negotiate the best offer, acquire the properties and recommend contractors, title companies, lenders, junk removal companies, inspectors and other professionals I've personally vetted who understand the special needs/desires of investors and deliver top-shelf service.
