After feeling like I was going in circles, this last month I decided to jump in and seriously start looking for my first property. 26 days later I signed my first contract and it happened to be on my birthday... almost like it was some sort of sign haha.

A week and a half ago we made and offer on a property, after that silence until I reached out to her on Sunday and was told that she can not talk because she is at a Birthday Party.

Begin to position Matt out of the day to day operation of the Trenton portfolio.6) Current redevelopment "mixed use" projects are complete, full of fantastic tenants, and strong cash flow for their owners7) DeRosa brand continues to provide tremendous value and education through ..... our newly formed New Jersey Real Estate Investing meetup group we are in the midst of organizing/launching, YouTube channel, speaking engagements, participating in conferences such as the MidAtlantic Summit in April, blogs, BP webinars/facebook live, and a new weekly podcast that will launch by the end of January called the Real Estate InvestHER Podcast (with @Andresa Lobrace).  8) On a personal note, some of my goals are to go on a trip (for a special birthday) with close friends, participate in 1-2 running races, work out at least 3x a week, engage in daily prayer and meditation, travel a ton with our family and go on a "couples retreat" with Matt, read at least 5 books, participate in at least two cleansing/fasting programs.

Brian recently thought of real estate rentals so I bought him Brandon's book for his birthday.

In any case, I'm getting ready to have my 26th birthday in 2 weeks and in looking towards the future I've wondered if these two factors will lead people to move out of cities and into more remote areas.

Happy Birthday and good luck!

My 30th birthday isn’t far away and I feel like I’m finally in a place mentally & emotionally to be able to make sound decisions and actually get started!

Very blessed to say that today is my 23rd birthday, I plan on starting my real estate investing journey here in Greenville, NC.
