Hello from Michigan!

[Gary Bennett]

Hello everyone! 

My name is Gary Bennett, I am 22 years old and am eager to get started in real estate. I will keep this post to the point/short and sweet. I am looking for a partner/partners and mentors to help me get my feet wet in real estate, as well as start building successful relationships/connections. I have grown up in "metro" Detroit area (Warren, Chesterfield, Macomb Twp) and for the past 3.5 years worked for a moving company in the same area doing sales and became a sales manager. Between growing up in these areas and my work experience going into 5-10+ different households a day I offer great market insight. I know these areas well, I am able to find correlations as to where people are moving out of/moving into. The demographics of each area, etc. I start my pre-licensing course next week to obtain a real estate license. I have listened to 100s of hours of pod casts/videos on real estate and the many different ways to do it and am excited to learn and grow in this space. 

A little bit about me is I have always been business minded since I was a kid. For as long as I could remember I never wanted to have a regular 9-5 and always had a goal of being wealthy. I graduated high school in 2019 and went on to college and gained two associates in business administrations, and general studies. I ultimately decided to leave because once I had to transfer to a university from my local community college to gain the 4 year degree the thought of going into student loan debt didn't sit right with me. I always wanted to pursue an entrepreneurial route and didn't believe I needed to go $30,000 into debt to get a piece of paper to do so. During the time I was in school I worked full time as a salesman, and currently sales manager for a moving/junk removal company in Macomb, MI. I also have done/tried many different side hustles throughout this period. I played baseball from the time I was 4 years old up until I was 17 years old, I also played basketball for a couple years, and quickly fell in love with golf after I was unable to play baseball anymore. I have an awesome girlfriend of almost 4 years and is a big motivator for me trying to become financially independent so I can provide her and my future family a great life. 

I look forward to connecting, growing, and learning with you all!
