It’s been a while since I last wrote a blog post so there is much to catch up. I figured I’d start with the sale of our duplexes. At the beginning of 2020, we had no intend to sale the duplexes. The goal was to refinance from our high interest private loan into a conventional […]

Using Other People’s Money to Buy Real Estate Investments
We officially became real estate investors in May 2019 and I can’t believe how much we have learned along the way! It’s been quite an adventure, but so worth it. Each deal takes us to the next level. In our deal, Big Horn, we learned the power of private money. In all of the real […]

Little did I know how soon that excitement would wear off! We still outsourced some big-ticket items like exterior painting and drywall repair, […]
Here is the Deal #3 – Purchasing Big Horn

Here is the Deal #2 – Purchasing Little Mermaid
Our second investment property is an interesting one. We found this house through a wholesaler and because it was located in North Miami Beach, the city where I grew up and worked as a property manager for a couple of years, I was sold. This seemed like a perfect deal. This house is a 1B/1B […]
Buying My First Rental Property With No Money Down…
