Warrior Win

James
Hughes

Im a District Manager for Speedway (Convenience Store) in Nashville TN. I manage 10 convenience stores throughout the Nashville, TN market. I started investing in RE 2 years ago with single family residential. I built up a little portfolio of SFR & condos in Memphis & Nashville. I then underwent some significant life altering events. I underwent major back surgery & my first daughter was born in the same month. I was recovering from surgery with the thought that if I ever physically can’t go into work how will I ever be able to provide for my daughter. That has been and still is my WHY. I needed to scale up faster to provide an income stream that will provide for my daughter long after im gone!

Any comments about your experience so far in the Warrior Program?

This has been one of the best decisions I have made! The initial investment to get into this program seemed like a lot of money (Which it still is) but its peanuts compared to the value this network of individuals already has brought me and the lifelong friendships I will have because of it. Couldn’t say enough about the program!

What are some hurdles you had to overcome to get this deal done?

ALWAYS put in an extension into the contract, you never know when you will need it. This deal would have fell through if I didn’t include this in there.

What are some of the lessons you learned with this deal?

Always have a bigger investor list than you think you should have.
