Most my clients are out of state and I have a furnishing/design crew as well as co-hosting services at a discount for clients to really help maximize your returns and be as hands-off as possible.

I have been trying to build my credit, i spoke to a couple of lenders, contractors, been reading some books from this platform but yet i need a push as to making the right decisions, i will much appreciate if someone will reach out to help, thank you.

Currently I live off my investments and can easily retire.
