Hi! My name is Michael Garland from San Antonio, TX. I recently joined BP to increase my real estate knowledge and become a real estate investor.
My background is I am a commercial lender for a community bank in town. So my job is to lend to people, primarily in real estate. Most of the loan requests are for investment real estate - SFRs and Commercial. So I see the success people are having, and I am a part of that success.
So I decided to finally start doing what my clients do - invest in real estate. I understand the financial side of real estate investing, but the owner/seller side I do not know much: Finding deals, finding tenants, rehabbing, etc. Being a banker, making that first step has been hard. So far, the podcasts have been very informative and motivational. I hope to put together and close on my first deal soon. Just need to find one!
