FLORIDA MAN has entered the chat
Hey everyone!
I’m a bit of a nerd with an analytical streak, attempting to break out of my shell and be more social—so if you see me in real life, get ready for a nerd trying to be outgoing! I've been diving into real estate for about 10 years now, starting with reading all the books I could get my hands on. My first attempts to get a loan ended in some pretty humbling experiences (getting laughed out of a couple of banks due to zero credit history).
Fast forward to today, and after building up some credit, a stronger W-2, and a solid professional background, I’m finally back in West Palm Beach, Florida, looking to make my first deal happen. I’m especially interested in doing a house hack as my entry point into real estate.
Excited to learn from everyone here, and hopefully bring some value to the community. Looking forward to connecting!
