Fabian Toledo is an ambitious individual with a background that spans both Colombia and the United States. Having lived in Houston, Texas, for around 15 years and now residing in Puerto Rico for approximately two years, Fabian has established himself as a determined real estate investor. His journey began with a modest and dilapidated house in a humble neighborhood in Houston, which he acquired for $11,000. At the time, Spanish-language education in real estate was scarce, but Fabian’s bold nature pushed him forward.

Despite the lack of educational resources in his native language, Fabian took it upon himself to learn and grow. For two years, while others were out partying on weekends, Fabian was diligently working on renovating the house. With a hammer in hand, he made significant changes, including rewiring, replacing drywall, windows, and even leveling the entire structure. Every aspect of the house was transformed, leaving it in a condition akin to a brand-new home. Reflecting on the experience, Fabian acknowledges the challenges and expenses he faced during his first venture and admits that if he had known in advance, he might have hesitated to embark on the project.
