Hello everyone,
My name is Derick White and I've been interested in Real Estate Investing (REI) since 2007 when I read the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, by Richard Kiyosaki. I was "lucky" and purchased my first house, as a primary residence, in 2009 and now maintain it as a positive, cash flowing rental property. I recently sold my primary residence, will be debt free, and plan to use my equity gained on the sale to jump into the game. I met David Greene recently at one of his seminars and hope to learn from him and his book.
I've been married for 10 years and have 2 beautiful children, and attend Cornerstone Fellowship church in Brentwood, CA. I fully believe in the power of positive mindset, and that I can achieve anything I put my mind to - Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill taught me that.
My goals (some, not all):
1) Learn the BRRRR strategy out of State (eventually learning other strategies)
2) Blanked out per Forum Guidelines
3) Own 100 plus units (eventually apartment complexes) and retire sooner than later
4) Serve others and Teach everyone who wants to learn once I gain experience
4) Invest in businesses (franchises)
5) Buy a Red Ferrari
I continuously focus on personal growth, leadership, and believe in the power of a team.
Some of my weaknesses are public speaking, introvert, and on occasion, indecisiveness – which sometimes causes me to stay within my comfort zone. Knowing this, I’ve begun taking steps to develop them and grow, one of which is attending toastmasters.
If anyone has tips or pointers to help me get started, please don’t hesitate to share.
Thanks,
Derick
