About
I graduated from the University of Florida with a BA in History/Political Science in 1998. After College I worked for Apartment Hunters for six months in Tampa before realizing that working for someone else wasn’t for me.
I started Apartment Express Corporate Housing with Dave Lowrey and we built it up over a seven year period (1999-2006) before we sold the company in to a regional apartment firm.
During our seven year run we were featured by Inc Magazine as one of the 500 fastest growing companies in America (2004 & 2005) in addition to a number of other articles, awards, and accolades from local and national media.
After I sold Apartment Express I went back to the University of Florida to work on a Master of Real Estate, “for fun.” I graduated with a MSRE in May 2007. Then Dave and I started Stress Free Property Management.
As of 2015 I currently own multiple rental units consisting of house, condos, commercial buildings, and apartments throughout Florida with a primary focus on the Tampa MSA. I have been a licensed real estate broker since 1999 and also hold an active Florida certified general contractor’s license in addition to mechanical and plumbing licenses.
I can put this unique combination of skills to work for you as we identify, negotiate, purchase, renovate, lease, and manage investment properties to exceed your financial goals. We are also an active investor ourselves so if you are looking for a predictable monthly income stream we offer 1st position mortgages at rates you can’t earn at any bank.
In the last seven years (as of 2015) I have purchased over 700 properties for myself and clients handling all aspects of the transaction. Renovations have varied from simple cosmetic updates to full blown additions (as well as new construction). Give me a call today to see if we can work together to grow your portfolio of investment properties in Tampa or discuss mortgage investing.
