Attention all Investors.

If you’re here I would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to read this. I am in the Toledo Ohio area and have always been on the contractor/worker end of things recently have been wanting to take the leap into the other end of the spectrum. Honestly has been something I have been wanting to do for years but I guess I was just comfortable where I was at. Well here I am finally. I guess I should tell you a little about me and what was my pushing factor. Growing up in a roofing family I got put to work early.  Over time I branched off and worked in the various other fields building my skills and knowledge. I guess I always played it safe because of the security blanket it offered me. But since my youngest was born it all changed. He was born in kidney failure and later we discovered he has liver cancer. Because of these reasons we spend more time than we like in the hospital. That being the case any job with normal hours is out of the question. Which pushed me to make the leap and here I am. Naturally my biggest hurdle is the capital to fund the projects. My hopes are to find a partner/investor to help me get started. I know it’s a slim chance but any chance not taken will never be realized. If there is anyone willing to take a chance no matter how small I promise in the end it will be worthwhile.

Hey Roberto, 

Thanks for sharing your heartfelt story. 

To get better luck in investors to partner with you. I recommend that you state what your buy box is. Are you looking for properties in the Toledo area? What shape are they in? Is it a single family home? Duplex? 10 unit? 

That will help other investors who are looking to partner, to get a better sense of what you're looking for and if it fits their needs. 

Hope that helps and good luck!
