@Ryan Rozsnaki

Welcome!  I just recently joined as well and dealing with similar issues as yourself.  I have tried driving for dollars and just today sent out my first mailer, hoping that goes well.  Would love to chat sometime, bounce ideas for getting things off the ground!

Fellow BP'ers,

Thank you for taking the time to read my intro!  I'll do my best to keep it concise and interesting :)

About me: 

- Interest in real estate started while in college (Rich Dad Poor Dad)

- Worked in sales and management after graduating

- Built a real estate investment portfolio part time while working full time

- Quit my W-2 job after 3 years and went full time self employed

- Started and sold a successful ECommerce business (Still partial ownership, but silent partner.  4-hour work week anyone? lol)

- Currently working full time in investment real estate

My Current Portfolio:

- Consists of several student homes that generate 5x - 10x the cash flow that a traditional rental would

- A couple homes were purchased myself through FHA leapfrog and refi (house hacking is the best!)

- One home as partnership with family

- One home as partnership with a silent investor

What I am looking to do moving forward:

- Create a marketing machine to funnel leads to other businesses that I own/partner in

- Self sufficient wholesaling business (employee run, profit sharing, partnership, etc.)

- Self sufficient flipping business (team of employees)

- Retail Real Estate brokerage for retail deals and property management (most likely acquire pre-existing prop management business)

- Expand student housing portfolio

- Build out-of-state portfolio for passive income

- Possible: Create hard money lending company using OPM

Whew!  Sorry for the long list, but I wanted to make it as quick of a read as possible!  I'm hoping to chat further in detail later as curiosities and obstacles come up.  I'm not normally this dry and robotic, I can assure you :P  I look forward to hearing from everyone soon!
