Hey BP Members and colleagues!
My name is Brandon Lebster, I'm originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan.I went to MSU for Civil Engineering, and I've been in living in the Tempe, AZ area for about 10 years now. I have always wanted to get into real estate after college but always thought I needed to save up money to do that. I got into project management for commercial kitchen construction building Starbucks, Subways, etc. and have kept that as a W2 job to help with financing.
At 27 I finally had enough money to buy my first flip, and did 85% of the work myself over 1 year while I lived there. After completing it I found that I could make almost $60k a year renting it on Airbnb (due to location), and have been the property manager renting on that platform since I finished. I have now paid off all my debt, saved up some money, and want to get into the rehab game while slowly starting to grow my buy and hold portfolio.
I know just about everything you would ever need to know about rehabbing a property. I'd like to get more processes in place to flip 10-20 properties a year.
Please reach out and say hello, I'm super motivated and really excited to turn it up a notch!!!
Cheers!
Brandon
