Wow, What a year its been!
You may recall my success story started out with a change of career after having lost my job, surviving a quadruple bypass and nearly broke to purchasing 20 buildings and improving my net worth to over a million dollars all within 18 months. What else could I have the good fortune to receive within a short period of time. Well, last Thursday REIN celebrated its annual awards program (in Ontario) and I again was fortunate enough to receive not only my gold pin for 17 buildings in one year but also a `Top Ten` award as well as `Rookie of the Year`. What a year! I am very proud of my achievments but all would not have been possible without my life partner Nicole, who quit her job and joined me on this whirlwind roller coaster ride to the top. We are still climbing and don`t plan to stop until we start exercising our exit strategy. She lives the extra 10% rule and helps keep me on track.
I want to thank all of you (REIN members) and Don and the REIN team especially, for helping make all this possible. You have given me a forum to help vent, articulate, solve problems and network. You have given me an audience to share stories, gain feedback on important landlording issues and a commradarie of friends I may never meet but knowing you are there is enough. The members I have met have been special. Thanks again and remember if I can do it...trust me on this, YOU CAN DO IT!
As Don says "don`t forget to give back" when you are able. Helping is truly a big part of success. If I can do anything to help you, feel free to contact me anytime.
