My name is Mike, and I'm from California. I'm a business owner with investments in retail, media, and addiction treatment facilities. I'm currently exploring real estate investments, which led me to discover Bigger Pockets.

I'm new here and just exploring to get a sense of things. Since childhood, I have been fascinated by the concept of rental properties. Growing up, my mother and I were renters, and I vividly recall the gratitude we felt when a landlord took a chance on us, despite my mother's imperfect credit history. This experience inspired me to become a landlord myself and one day offer the same opportunities to families in need. Perhaps we can share tips or collaborate on business ventures in the future.
