Introduction to BiggerPockets
Hey guys my name is Devon Kennard I’m in the NFL and have been a real estate investor as well for the last 5 years. I’ve been listening to the Bigger Pockets podcast for over a year now and finally decided to join and connect with you guys! Looking forward to networking and learning from you guys!
@Joshua Esparza hey man! I grew up a cowboys fan as well. My father actually was the starting center in 96 when they won the super bowl. I have a picture of me on my dads shoulders after the game. I have no immediate plans on reaching the Texas market yet but I love Austin so maybe we can do something down the line!
@David Stevoff wow thanks for sharing this information. Majority of my properties are in Cleveland Ohio and I have plans to buy more there this year but I keep hearing Detroit is a good market as well so that’s where I may look next.
@Rob B. I haven’t heard of automated services not sure if I’m interested at moment I like dealing with an actual property management firm looking over my properties but as I keep growing this is something I will keep in mind. No immediate plans on reaching the Chicago market but I do love that city and would love to have properties their eventually so I will keep you in mind. Let’s exchange contact info!
@Jamiel Strickland funny single family buy and holds as well as syndication multifamily is what I’m in now as well! Thanks for having me. Haven’t began looking in Detroit but when I do hope we can connect!
@Devon Kennard welcome! We're hosting a conference in Minneapolis in September that's going to be big if you'd like to come

@Devon Kennard Welcome! I’m new to BP myself and so far it’s been a wonderful resource. I’m always looking to connect and learn from others experiences!
We currently have 12 units so nothing crazy we are looking into a 81 unit in New Orleans.
Hey Devon, let's do a Detroit deal so I can pay back that $10k I might have as well set on fire for my Lions season tickets last year
@Devon Kennard welcome to BP. It is great to see someone with a high income use that income to invest and build generational wealth. Good luck this season....however Bears Down.
@Austin Hendrickson Jones LaSalle?
@Devon Kennard. Feel free to reach out for any info on syndications & different operators & asset classes.
Best of luck to you.
My brother plays pro baseball & I’m trying to get him more into real estate!
@Matt Millard I work for a new real estate development company in Minnesota which is owned by the same ownership as the MN Vikings.
@Devon Kennard welcome from a die hard Lions fan! From Grand Rapids originally. Now live in MN.
