Hello BP. My name is James. I live in Concord with my wife and 4 kids. I've been building spec homes in Charlotte and Concord since 2015. Charlotte was in the $600-900k market. Concord is in the under $200k market. I've recently decided that it makes better long term wealth sense to keep the homes as rentals. I've recently purchased 2 lots that I'm splitting to 4. Through a modified BRRRR strategy, I will be able to create 4 cash flowing rentals with relatively little money left in the deal. I'm exploring section 8 for the known benefits, but will probably put them in MLS also.
I’m a RE broker with Keller Williams and a career firefighter. I have a unique and mutually beneficial relationship with a GC who is the most trustworthy contractor I know. This allows me to focus on other things.
My goal is to create passive income to reach my version of FI. This looks like keeping my FD job that I love and working when I want to and with who I want to in the future.
I look forward to connecting with anyone. I’m at my projects almost daily so happy to meet people there if anyone is interested.
