Property One: Check!
Hey BP!
Earlier this year, I set a goal to do whatever it takes to buy my first duplex by the end of 2017. There were a lot of ups and downs throughout the process but what really kept me on track were the small goals I set through the year. It sounds small but I started with building my own furniture. It was a very simple goal but I accomplished it relatively quickly and got the ball rolling. From there, I decided to get my real estate license and start working part-time with RedFin Corporation in Cleveland. Once I got my license, I was really focused on building my network and touring every house in my criteria because I didn't want to be on the sidelines any longer.
I finally closed on my first duplex in Lakewood, Ohio on 10/312017 and it feels great to finally be in the game! Reading and learning from everyone on BP has been awesome and I couldn't have done it without everyone contribution!
So thank you and I look forward to many more great conversations!

Hey @Michael Norris That is great to know! I grew up in Strongsville so it is great to see some other Strongsvillians on BP!
