I am a loner introvert so social distancing etc is not really changing my life..... now, people dont look at me oddly when i step back or want my own space :) RE wise, with “perfect” timing I am closing on the sale on one asset and buying two others.... going from free and clear to 60% leveraged..... its nerve wracking, but I am excited to be playing with the big boys and expanding my portfolio - learning a ton and grateful I have the opportunity to be where I am in life....
