I got started in real estate before I could drive. Honestly, you could say I was born into real estate. From about the time I was in second grade I was working with my mother helping her clean up her own rental properties. As soon as I could push the lawnmower, I was put to work. Cutting grass, painting, cleaning, taking out the trash, I did anything mom needed to be done. From those experiences, I came to learn a lot of information regarding single-family real estate investing. Later in college, I purchased my first house and learned firsthand what it meant to be a landlord. From cleaning up after my tenant to negotiating repairs and handling late rent. I also learned a great deal about the power of leverage, how depreciation worked on my taxes, and how to dramatically increase my ROI on a property. From that one property, I have grown our investment business from one home in Tennessee to 6 homes in central Texas, with plenty in passive income. I know how to make long and short-term rental work to pay for themselves. Creating passive assets is one of my specialties. In 2009, I started Neuhaus Realty Group to teach others how to invest in real estate. Along with my business partner, Stephen Smith, we have gone on to sell over $150 million dollars in real estate in the last seven years. With the help of a collection of agents around the State of Texas, we have been able to help many clients who would otherwise have to be sent to other brokers. Over the last 7 years, I have sold everything from commercial buildings just blocks from the state capital in Austin, to houses from Beaumont to San Antonio to Dallas, and everywhere in between. Let me know how I can help you.
