Real Estate Obsessed

[Cindy Gerson]

I have been obsessed with RE for most of my life, buying my first property at 22. I was flipping before that was a coined phrase. I called myself a house gypsy, improving, redesigning and moving on. My specialty was dead inventory, the longer the better. I once purchased a house that had been on the market 4 years and sold it in a year for $50K profit (this was 1997) .

I had children and needed to grown thicker roots for a bit, so took a hiatus. As well as I wound up in higher end RE, which is just frankly more expensive to flip, which frankly demotivated me for a bit.

I'm now in the position to start investing with out having to house hack, and looking and learning the ropes.
