Hello Brian, Welcome to BP and Grand Rapids. I am a real estate agent and investor in Big Rapids just 50 miles north. I grew up here so if you are looking at properties north of G.R. I may be able to help.

Hello everyone,
My name is John Bender and I am the owner of Option Avenue, llc. My company is relatively new, but I am not a stranger to real estate. I was a Realtor until I let my license expire last September. I manage a 65 unit complex in Big Rapids. Like so many others I am an avid reader and a dedicated learner.
Thursday I will be closing my first sub-to deal. I love to network and meet other investors. Free lunch anyone? For months I have been reading on BP and it is time to put all my knowledge to work. I look forward to future discussions and building new personal and business relationships.
