I began 2012 with a rehab project (my first) that had been dragging on for quite some time for different reasons. Then I attended the BP Summit and that's when things changed. I met some great people there, and learned from some of the best in the business. In particular, J Scott, Marty Boardman, Will Barnard, Aaron Mazzrillo, and Rich Weese not only shared so much invaluable information in their presentations, but graciously made themselves available away from the conference rooms to people like me. All of these guys plus Ed O and Steven V really inspired me and motivated me to get things going.
I returned home, finished the rehab and sold it for a modest profit. Later in the year I purchased my second and third rehab projects, which should both be finished and listed for sale this weekend.
In 2013 I hope to add some more rentals to my portfolio, and continue to do more rehabs. I'm going to have to learn new techniques to fill my pipeline, which will be a challenge since I'm still working full time.
