So I just saw a post about introductions. Here's my story....

My husband and I began investing in real estate about 20 years ago. Started with us buying a second home in Palm Desert and we ended up renting it out seasonally to help with the cost. We began buying more rentals and after a while (10 years ago) I decided to get my license so I could handle our purchases and sales myself.  

Friends and family began asking for help selling or buying and I discovered I loved helping people buy and sell houses.  So what began as a plan to increase my own portfolio developed into helping others do it too!

We have 18 properties, plus or primary. Two in Texas, two in Tennessee and the rest in sunny California.

As we are getting older and retirement isn't that far out (7-10 years) we really want to increase our passive income. 

We have $200k we need to park somewhere soon. This looks like a great place to learn and share knowledge. I look forward to getting to know you all!

Adrienne
