Since then I've bought 4 more buy & holds, flipped 2 homes, sold 4 of the 5 buy & holds, and have passive investments into various commercial properties including a hotel in Dallas, a new construction of a student housing apartment in Central Texas, a land deal in Austin, TX, and a commercial real estate fund specializing in Class A residential assets in NYC.I'm looking to continue my real estate education, expand my network base, share my knowledge and experiences with others, and ultimately get into syndicating of my own deals.Happy to help anyway I can and look forward to getting to know the BP network!
