Live PodcastApartment Syndication Due Diligence Checklist for Passive InvestorAbout Matt DrouinMatt grew up in Rochester, NY as the son of a dialysis nurse and general laborer at Genesee Brewery. After losing his parents to health issues in his 20s, Matt descended into an existential crisis.  How could two hard-working Americans doing everything the “right” way struggle financially their whole life and then die young with little to no savings? Matt looked around and found that his parents weren’t the only ones victim to this, and if he didn’t do something to drastically change his trajectory, he would wind up the same way. He wanted to be present for family.  He never wanted money to be the reason why him and his family couldn’t act on their dreams or aspirations. He needed to find a way to “exit the Matrix.” He made it his lifelong goal to become “retired” by his 40th birthday. Building wealth in real estate was the way. After obsessively pursuing this lofty goal; thinking about it everyday over 10 years, he achieved financial freedom by his 33rd birthday. Today, Matt is Partner at OakGrove Development, a real estate investment and development firm with a special focus on value-add commercial and residential properties in Rochester, NY. Over the last 17 years, Matt has been in real estate management, brokerage and development and grown his portfolio to 176 units of residential and commercial property. Get in Touch with MattWebsite: Oakgrove CompaniesFacebook: Matthew DrouinInstagram: @mattmdrouinLinkedIn: Matthew DrouinTikTok: @mattdrouinTo Connect With UsPlease visit our website www.bonavestcapital.com and click here to leave a rating and written review!
