Investor from Dallas Fort-Worth

[Jeff Garrett]

Hello everyone. I've lurked on this site for years but have yet to formally introduce myself. My name is Jeff and I currently reside in the Dallas Fort-Worth area. I am an energy attorney by trade but have always had an interest in real estate investing. I partnered up with a CPA friend from college and we've purchased a couple of single family homes which are currently rented.

My goals are to continue to build a portfolio of quality rentals to generate passive income. Eventually I'd like to get into larger multifamily properties that are more capital intensive. The biggest piece of advice I can give to those considering making the plunge into investing in 2015 is that nothing takes the place of experience. You can research and prepare as much as possible but the best teacher is going out and doing deals.

I'd love to meet other investors within the DFW area. May everyone have a happy, healthy, and successful 2015.
