Greetings everyone!

My name is Joe Marshall and I just got started in real estate investing late last year. I have however been very interested in real estate for many years.

My current "full time" job has me traveling quite a bit all over the world and as glamorous as that may sound it's really no fun when what you really want to do is to be able to go to your kids soccer game.

I may be a bit "unconventional" in my real estate investing plan as I live by what some may consider "unorthodox" standards. My wife and I are completely debt free and my real estate investing business will function debt free as well. Certainly I understand leverage and how it works but I'll strive never to leverage any deal.

I have my first two deals under contract presently (both all cash deals). My long term goal is to acquire 2-3 property's per year for the next five years. At year five I'll do an analysis to determine if I want to go bigger, stay as is or wind the business down.

You can check out my website at [LINK REMOVED].

Joe
