Awesome and inspiring post @Jordan Moorhead! Great job on the perseverance in getting that financing. 

Hello Everybody!

My name is Mack Benson currently located in Woodbury, MN. My interest in real estate investing dates to when I read Rich Dad Poor Dad 15-20 years ago. The excitement I had then ran out when I was lead to believed I would never have the funds available to break in to the industry. I never thought I had the funds to get started but recently discovered there are many more, maybe less conventional, ways to get started. For many years I have worked on improving and selling primary residences and rolling over the equity to the next home but I would like to get into real estate investing as a business. With a degree in applied mathematics the numbers don’t scare me and I know one day I can get out of the banking industry IT world.

At this point I am looking for my first rehab property to fix and flip on the east side and to network with individuals and mentors. Up to now I have learned a lot by perusing the forums and listening to the pods but I know the best way to learn is by doing. I hope to soon join some meetups and in person events to learn even more.

I’m saying it here so it is in the internet ether for eternity that I will not over think and talk myself out of real estate again, I will go through with the plan.

Thank you for lending me your eyes while reading this and I look forward to connecting with you in the future.
