My story:
Working in tech over a decade has been very rewarding but with every promotion came an additional demand on time. So over time , I just felt like I have golden handcuffs .Now you might be wondering- golden handcuff? why and what does that mean
Handcuffs typically signify bondage which to me felt like the dependency of someone on a high paying job to earn their living, in exchange for a much valuable commodity TIME . Since- time is life!!! Most high paying professionals spend anywhere between 40-80% of their time at work with barely any time left to explore other opportunities.
So , I got into commercial real estate to make my money work for me and started Silicon Hills capital group to bring the same opportunity to anyone who wants to reap the benefits as well. Silicon Hills Capital group brings high yield commercial investment opportunities to folks who have busy lifestyles and are looking to passively invest and reap the benefits of commercial real estate.
Mission:
Helping you pave the path to financial freedom by making your money work for you and create passive streams of income.
