Building my financial freedom

[Brandon Leffler]

I’m happy to be in a forum with fellow investors and people wanting to master real estate.  I enjoy hearing about peoples’ personal wins and innovative, creative strategies.  I hope to be able to contribute to other peoples’ journeys as well in these crazy times.

Did you invest in California or outside of your area? What type of strategies are you exploring?

I invested in my backyard first. Stockton,CA had the most foreclosures in the US, after the housing crash. On top of that there was an $8,000 tax credit, as an incentive since people weren’t buying.  So I bought one for 135,000 and sold years later for 447,000.  I sold that home about 2 years ago to buy my first Airbnb in Tampa, FL which thankfully is going well.

That buy and hold was an amazing ROI! AirBnB's in Tampa has to be a great investment. Do you like being a host on that platform?
