Hi everyone,
I just read @Vigilante 's post here: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/adding-value-to-the-fast-lane-forum.47120/ and I thought I'd introduce myself to the forum.
I'm in the US and I've been working different 9-5 jobs since I graduated college in 2010, while trying to get a business going of some sort.
I bought my first duplex last year and I've been experiencing good returns ever since (and I've got a PM). All of my endeavors have been about generating more money to buy more real estate. The market I'm investing in has experienced rapid growth and the duplex has already increased in value by 40%. I'll be able to pull out 100% of my investment soon through a cash-out refinance and pick up another property (although the really good deals are getting a little more difficult to find).
I've tried Retail Arbitrage for about 6 months, but this wasn't making enough profit and so I tried Kindle Publishing. I've published one book and I've got a few more in the works (2 written, just editing, and a third outlined).
I recently tried to get a Property Management web application together, but this is on hold because we lost our programmer. My business partner and I are kind of burnt out on this so we are taking a break from this endeavor for now.
Right now, I am working on figuring out what my next steps are. I really enjoy real estate investing and analyzing deals and all of the numbers that go into them and so I'm thinking about putting together a website that analyzes the region I'm investing in.
I've learned a lot from all of you and your posts. Thanks for that and I hope I can provide value as well in one way or another.
