New PRO member from Richmond, VA
Hello, BP Community!
I am not a 'new' member but a new Pro member. I do not think I introduced myself when I joined so ...... here goes.
I have been a lazy buy/hold investor in Richmond, VA. I work a fulltime job, which I do like and make a decent living. However, I would quit tomorrow if all of my rentals were paid off. Paying my houses off early wasn't necessarily feasible earlier but it is now my focus. Flipping is also of interest - I have done four and learn more and get better at it each time. My latest interests are investing in rentals for cash flow outside my local area, considering small apt buildings and mobile home parks, primarily in the southeast.
Cheers!
