The kids, wife and life have slowed me down.

I have always thought real estate would be a great investment and wish I'd started pursueing it earlier in life.

And we both want to work together on building a solid life for our family.

Thanks :) I hope its the start to an exciting career and life for me!

@Chris Masons Thank you for your welcome.I see you're based out of Union, I actually lived the first few years of my life in Union.Sounds like you've seen and done a lot in the multifamily space.

You combat vacancy by knowing your market; targeting the correct tenant population; insuring your units solve a problem in their life / facilitate their lifestyle; providing value for the rent dollar and managing leases.  

Ultimately I'm using real estate as a vehicle to achieve financial freedom for my family and allow me the time to do the things I enjoy in life like spending time with family, traveling, and helping other people.I'm originally from Cleveland, OH (GO CAVS!!

My other properties I have  donated all have been to Habitat for Humans or local Church's in the area's were the properties were located.  

I stress all investors to have a website that will make your life a lot easier.

I have lived in Southern Oregon my whole life.
