Introduction to new area member
Hi Ladies and Gentleman!
I wanted to put out a introduction and invitation to connect with other area investors. I am fairly new to the Land as my wife and I relocated here just over 2 years ago. I am a long time viewer of the BP forums but have recently decided to focus more of my time towards my real estate investment goals. I am a successful small business owner, actually I am operating 2 small business with my real estate endeavor becoming my 3rd. I have long been interested in the real estate market and finally am in a better position to leverage my assets to build a sizable portfolio.
Quick overview:
I have successfully rehabbed a couple of owner occupied properties in the past myself with each property seeing decent returns. Today my ambitions are less that of a contractor and more focused on investing and establishing a multifamily portfolio.
Today I am house hacking a gorgeous duplex in Lakewood, Ohio and just purchased another SF on a highly desirable street for a major rehab that I am starting very soon. I will be sure to share some photos a long the way. I will be asking lots of questions along the way, hopefully there are some members here that wouldn't mind sharing some information with a young entrepreneur..
My goals are to build a reasonable multifamily portfolio in the western communities of Cleveland. I love to talk shop with other members who are investing their own time into similar interest. If you are open to meeting with a newcomer I would be happy to seize the opportunity for a meet and greet.
Sincerely,
Brad Fausett
