New Investor from DFW Texas

[Keelia Purscell]

Hello to all.. I am Keelia Purscell and I'm a Realtor and investor in the greater DFW area. I've been in and around Real Estate for most of my life ( my dad was a broker in CA) I've been in Texas about 18 years, 14 in Austin and now up in the Dallas area, Plano to be exact. I'm a member of the Dallas REIA so you may see me around. I show up for most of the meetings. I've been out of the investment arena for the last few years but am ready to jump back in. Came here from CA and did a 1031 of mostly residential properties into commercial in Austin. But it's time to jump back in here in DFW. Looking to expand my portfolio next year and add some single family or multi family. I'm getting my two oldest daughters in the family biz so will help them in their first deal or two.

Looking forward to being a part of the community!
