I’m eager to learn the process and take actionable steps.I’m particularly interested in acquiring land and identifying creative ways to add value, whether through flipping, owner financing, or long-term holds.My long-term vision includes owning rental properties, possibly starting with a multi-family home where I can live in one unit and rent out the others.I’m also exploring opportunities in modular housing and small community developments to fill a growing demand for affordable yet modern housing solutions.Outside of real estate, I have a background in auto detailing and entrepreneurship, which has taught me the importance of quality, attention to detail, and perseverance.
