New Investor/RE Broker in Portland, OR
Hi All, I'd like to introduce myself as a new BP member, investor and licensed Oregon broker living in Portland. I've been listening to the podcasts for about a year and half, and have taken the time to educate myself with many of the suggested books that come up in the podcast. Never before have I taken an instant understanding of a business and the numbers involved like I have with Real Estate investing. I've been an entrepreneur for years, and have a successful event production business specializing in audiovisual technology and logistics. Using my business and entrepreneurial experience, I plan to use my license to broker my own deals, as well as other investors and even retail clients in and around the Portland metro. I also plan to buy long term rentals in Indianapolis - a city I am very familiar with, having lived there for 15 years. Looking forward to being an active contributor to the forums now. Also, for anyone in Portland, I'll be at the Bigger Pockets happy hour tomorrow (Thursday 11/29 4:30P-6:30P) hosted by RareBird Real Estate. Come and say hi.
