Brent Watson from Flower Mound (Dallas), Texas

[Brent Watson]

Hey everyone,

My name is Brent and I'm from Flower Mound, which is between Denton (where UNT is) and Dallas. Grew up in this area, went to college in San Antonio, and came back because I like it so much here.

I was recently part of a whole-site layoff at BlackBerry, which is when I started looking closer at real estate investing. Got a job pretty soon after which has slowed down my progress in real estate, but I badly want to get deeper into this because I think it's something I'll really enjoy.

I'm trying to start with quick rehabs to build capital before expanding to other areas like single family rentals, lease options, and mobile homes to name a few. As a longer-term goal, I'd like to get into apartment complexes and see what else is out there after that.

Right now, I'm trying to focus on finding some good REI focused realtors and hard money lenders to get my team started, but I'm absolutely open to any advice for a newbie.

Thanks for taking the time to read. :)
