Learned a lot and feel as if I could learn a lot more from servicing loans (particularly purchase loans) but feel like I am making good connections in PM/RE at my current job.... 

I'm particularly passionate about East rural areas of Dallas.Outside of real estate, I enjoy horseback riding, jet skying, home improvement projects, and spending time with my family & friends.Excited to learn and connect with yawl!

Easy access to I-10 and I-35 Highways.

Connect with a reputable contractor like @Jonathan Klemm to see if he can help you.

It's easy to obtain, costs very little, and doesn't require extra, on-going effort to maintain.

Happy to connect and answer any questions you may have!
