Investor Intro From San Jose, CA

[Neil L.]

Hey Everyone...

I signed up for Bigger Pockets well over a year ago, but just recently I've gotten a little more involved and thought I'd throw out an intro!

I've been investing in RE for about 20 years - SFH rentals, Vacation rentals as well as a good number of Syndicated deals in Multi-Family and Commercial Properties. As for property management, I've self-managed as well as going the more passive route using a hired manager.

Flipping a SFH has always been something that's interested me. There's something really appealing about taking something old and "beat up" and making it *new* again. However, after listening to bunch of the BP podcasts recently, one of my key take aways is to "stick to what you know / what you're good at". With that in mind, I plan to stick with long term buy and hold for now.

If you're not listening to the BP podcasts, you should be - there's a ton of great info there!

When I'm not searching for my next RE deal I like to travel - favorite places include China / Japan / France / Hawaii.

In the Summer months you'll find me wake boarding & tubing with my family on Lake Tulloch in the foothills of Northern California.

Look forward to making more connections on BP - Thanks!

@Kim Stofan thanks for the welcome! I'm mostly focused on the west coast - have a few holdings in California as well as Nevada, Arizona and Hawaii (Maui).
