People told me I was nuts to buy this old house and to make sure I knew what I was getting myself into, LOLThis enabled me to save up quickly and buy a Mother/Daughter that I occupied and rented out 2nd floor which paid 3/4 of my Mortgage so again I had W-2 income, my 4 family income and a very small mortgage at my Mother Daughter as my tenant was paying 3/4 of it....At this point I knew I Was on to something and was definitely hooked and realized this is a fantastic way to build wealth, equity and get ahead.....This was almost 20 years ago and I am still going have 15 properties 28 doors that I self manage while work a full time job.It can be crazy sometimes but I love this business and would be nowhere close to where I am at financially if it weren't for Real Estate.Definitely takes drive, passion, the want and desire, some risk taking AND a lot of hard work.
