Brand New Investor in Genesee County, MI

[Antuan Bell]

Hello BP community, I'm a long time forum frequenter but I feel that now is probably the best time to put myself out there and say 'hey.' 

Single father of two, working a stable job in education technology, and running & 'kind of' managing a small business consulting company on the side. I am extremely grateful for both jobs and the life that they help me provide for myself and my family... However, I am ready for a change, have been for a while. 

My journey started with buying real estate in Atlanta a few years ago before 07' & 08' and most recently buying, leasing, and selling land. However... I am in a place where I am comfortable holding the land that I have and wish to learn the ways of creative financing real estate property deals, and working on building a rental portfolio of 5-10 doors in areas in and outside of my state.

Eventually, I would love to be in a position to help communities maintain good property values and contribute to community revitalization efforts in underserved areas. 

I would like to meet like minded investors in my area, and in Lansing Michigan. I would love to find a mentor that would be open to assist me in my journey of building my real estate portfolio. 

I am currently working on my first deal, so fingers crossed.
