[Tequila Brown]

Hello Bigger Pockets,

My name is Tequila I've been in Houston for roughly 5 years. I've seen a ton of growth with real estate over the last 5 years. I wasn't sure when to enter the real estate business, but now I'm here. I've just recently past my Texas Real Estate Exam. I'm not only interested in sales, but also investment properties, hard money lending, tax lien, etc.
