Investor and Developer from Houston, Texas
Hello BP Nation-
I'm Howard Mayne and live in Houston where I previously worked in the oil & gas industry. Over the last couple of years, I have done some investing in multi-family projects as well as office and retail (not as the operator). At the beginning of the year, I went off on my own, and am working on developing two self storage facilities. My goal is to develop at least 10 in the next 5 years. I stumbled across the BP podcast a couple of weeks ago and have enjoyed listening to it. On multiple occasions, I have heard interviewees recommend the forums, so here I am. I'm looking forward to discussing RE with you all and hopefully make some new friends along the way.
Cheers!

Hi Howard,
We Love the asset Class - 13 facilities and counting....
I ditched over 500 single family and apartment units about 10 years ago, and since then, we have been blessed abundantly.
We mostly acquire existing, but we are also developing and converting big boxes.
I Live in Indianapolis, and we own/develop nationwide, with a concentration in Texas.
Feel free to reach out privately if you wish to connect.
Cheers,
