About Nicole (Dunlap) Pendergrass

Our guest today, is an investor who began her real estate investing career nearly ten years ago.  It was just after the last economic down turn, and here we are again somewhat in another.  She started by doing something so important, educating herself.  It wasn’t just education though, she did all the other right things, made partnerships, made sacrifices, she really dove in. 

Speaking of sacrifice, her first investment was a part of that, and though it was filled with many downs, which she will tell us about, as she called it an unsuccess story; There were some ups.  One UP, is though purchased years ago, it’s still paying off today, the cash flow—we’ve talked above cashflow on this show many times— pays for the home she lives in today. 

She has stuck with continuing to educate herself, surrounding herself with other like-minded individuals, and has recently closed on another investment.  I read some about it, and can’t wait to hear more.  Let’s welcome our guest for today, Nicole (Dunlap) Pendergrass.

About Derek Deverna

Derek DeVerna is an investor and agent, yes he’s both.  He is a University of Cincinnati graduate, and since graduating fairly recently, has gotten busy with Real Estate.  He has closed many deals over the years, either as a Wholesaler, Agent, or Investor.  This has led to a lot of experience, some of which he’s going to share with us today.  Derek invests in Ohio currently.  Surprisingly,  I actually met him because he shared a picture of a finished project in our investor group, and I noticed our property in the background.  Two of our properties are right next to each other.  I’m glad to have a neighbor who takes pride in his investment, providing a good place for others to reside, which is one of our highest goals.  Derek just finished completing one huge accomplishment, which is awesome, and I can’t wait for him to tell us more about it in today’s show.  Welcome our guest today, Derek DeVerna.
