His first purchase was a dilapidated Triplex in a desirable adjacent location in Los Angeles in early 2019. After he and his wife spent 10 months renovating the units, with no prior experience to speak of and enduring the tough struggles of renovations firsthand, their first renters moved in January 2020. In April 2020, his first renters moved out, leaving them with a massive mortgage and no rental income to cover it. After scrapping by, and learning hard-fought lessons in the real estate business, his experience allowed him to get a foot in the door with a Native California who always had the dream of passive income from real estate loan officer at Investor Property Loan. Financing Tools for Investment Properties. Mortgage Lending company, Investor Property Loan. He has since become a leading producer in the company, closing millions in investment property loans. He shares his experiences with new and experienced investors alike as his niche expertise has helped hundreds of clients grow their wealth and leverage their portfolios to achieve their goals. He has since added an ADU to his triplex, now cash flowing and fully occupied, and purchased his second property out of state with goals to purchase a five to twenty-unit multifamily within the next calendar year.Connect with JonathanWebsite: Investor Property LoanEmail: jonathan@investorpropertyloan.com Instagram: @jontheloanguyFacebook: Jonathan TaylorBiggerPockets: Jonathan TaylorPhone: (800) 440-8350Connect With UsPlease visit our website: www.bonavestcapital.com and please click here, to leave a rating and review!SponsorsGrow Your Show, LLCThinking About Creating and Growing Your Own Podcast But Not Sure Where To Start?Visit GrowYourShow.com and Schedule a call with Adam A.

On this episode, Dr. Kate Mangona, while nursing her 2-week old cooing precious infant
In this episode, I talk about:A huge milestone in my life, paying off my student loansHow a crappy situation with an ex-boyfriend ended up being serendipitous Archie is 8 months old and has weaned from breastfeeding and how I'm feeling about itSomeone who was close to me disappeared from my life for 5 years and tried to re-enter but I'm protecting my peace and leaving that door closedBeing more intentional with my time to reduce anxiety and stressI feel like there was so much more I wanted to say in this episode. One of my biggest 'aha' moments recently is that I can forgive someone, have empathy for and respect someone without being their friend or letting them into my life. This is a great realization for me because I struggle with people pleasing and often times that leads me to getting stepped on. At 32, I've finally learned to stand my ground and be uncomfortable in disappointing people, even if disappointing others is what's best for me.
