I live in Grand Marais, Michigan, where my family owns and operates Superior Hardware, our family business.My passion for real estate started when I was 7 and asked my mom if she could download the Trulia app for me on my iPod touch (remember those?!).

There is no secret sauce to getting/finding properties other than what is already told out there in the real estate market - 50% bootstrapping 50% luck - same as finding a great wholesale deal.

The early 2000's were a different world from what we know today (think Brittney or Kanye) but especially when it comes to real estate mortgages and lending.

Hey Octavio, It is intimidating being a beginner in the real estate world, my advice would be to do your research and find what works best for you.

Deciding between fix & flip and buy & hold real estate strategies depends on your financial goals, risk tolerance, and time commitment.

How Technology Changed My Real Estate Business in the Last 25 Years25 years ago I decided to “formalize” by hard money / private money investments and start an investment fund and syndicate these note opportunities.

Definitely work on building more connections in the real estate industry.
