Hello from Central Florida
Hi my name is Michael Lee and I'm new to BP. I was born and raised in Central Florida and have chosen to raise my children here. We absolutely love living here and enjoy all the outdoor activities available to us.
I purchased my first investment property in '04 and have flipped or held on to a little more than twenty properties over the years. About a third of those was on my own and 2/3 with family and friends. I currently have four single family rentals all located close to my house.
For the last dozen years or so I've been a franchisee of a restaurant chain and I recently sold my last location.
I've only been a casual investor up to now but my dream has been to go full time and now is the time for me. I would say I'm a novice/intermediate investor compared to the professionals with hundreds of deals done.
Currently I have more money ready to be deployed than I can use. I'm not scared of partnering with newbies, managing rehabs, etc... I'm happy to do what ever it takes. My deal flow is anemic.
I have one deal I am purchasing set to close on 1/12/2020 and a rehab on an existing rental after a long term tenant is leaving at the end of the month. The property I'm purchasing on 1/12 I've been working on for two years! Lol
I'm considering getting my real estate license. Thanks for reading! Yes I'll put a thumb nail up soon.
