Newbie from Grand Rapids, MI
Hello everyone! My name is Paul Volk, I am a newbie investor in the Grand Rapids area. My wife and I bought a condo in 2014 when the market was still pretty low. We saved our pennies and ended up building our dream home in Rockford, a nearby suburb of Grand Rapids. We rented the condo and we have been fortunate that it has appreciated quite a bit in value and cash flows about $250/month. Now that we are in our dream home we are anxious to try to find another cash flowing property. My wife and I are both in sales in the Healthcare industry which allows for great flexibilty in our schedules. Although we both enjoy our jobs, we both dream to exit the rat race and live off of the cash flow of multiple rentals. Because there aren't really any deals in this inflated market, I am hoping to make and deal and hopefully try out the BRRRR strategy. I look forward to networking with the community and having mutually valuable discussions :)
