New Investor from London (UK) growing investments in Florida!
Hello Everyone,
A privilege to be a new member of the BP community. It's wonderful to see such widespread camaraderie in this space.
The world of real estate, on this side of the pond, is much more adversarial (your gain is my loss!), and consequently far less transparent. I relish the prospect of getting my teeth stuck in this new world.
Although, I am a fairly experienced and established RE investor/developer in the UK, I am in many respects a newbie in your market, currently with one SFR New Build under my belt. As with any business I have defined fairly detailed criteria, vision and theme for the next 3 years. However, I remain open to re-writing the investment game plan once I have done a few more projects and assimilated new information.
Initial, aim is to invest and grow in the SFR F&F in Central and Northern Florida market with a target to turn around 20 projects by Q4 2019.
I am enormously excited to ride this mouthwatering new adventure. No doubt I will take a few hard knocks along the way, which I will share with you for advice.
Anyway I shan't take up anymore airtime.
Grateful to the BP community and glad to play a small role.
Mo.

Welcome @Mo Gold - I'm an active real estate consultant/realtor/investor/property manager in the Tampa / St Pete market. And my wife is from the UK, so I speak both American and British English!
All joking aside, we pass through London every year or two on our way to and from visiting family in South Wales... it's a great city! I'm actually headed your way in a few weeks.
Let me know if I can help you with anything here in the Tampa Bay area.
