Space Coast / Orlando Lets connect

Posted

Hey BP

I’m David.... nice to meet you all😊

Part 1

I’m a project manager for a construction company on the Space Coast with investment dreams. I’ve been in the insurance related restoration industry most of my life ( basically wind, hurricane, and hail claims) and I’ve noticed something that most investors haven’t.

A large percentage of commercial investors don’t file claims when natural disasters occur. I’d say 50% or more..... and I can’t seem to figure out why.

“ALL” of the wealthiest clients I’ve had over the years were REIs, but the top 10 wealthiest were very quick to capitalize on large losses.

Help me understand why some “investors” run away from this opportunity and choose a loss in property value over fighting an insurance company.

I can understand if you own a small 2k sq ft building that’s kinda run down, but I’ve seen countless property owners walk away from millions....

Why is this?

Part 2

I’d like to connect with as many commercial investors as I can. Construction pays good but I’ll use the money from that to invest and build real, lasting wealth.
