Daiv's Story
Life
Ive been living in Florida since I left Penna back in 1981. I graduated from Penn State with a degree in Hotel/Rest Management and French and left for greener and warmer pastures.I landed in Orlando and lived there for 17 years but got tired of the horrible traffic and commute living in a crowded tourist mecca. I got smart, moved to Jacksonville in 1999 which actually is bigger (1.4 million) but its alot more laid back here and accidently got into the landlord business. Well 8 properties 12 units and a vacation home in midtown Atlanta,..20 years later …I'm now retired for 7 years and enjoying the beaches and river here, spending time on remodeling projects and travel.. The properties keep me busy and I've learned a lot about houses and if you would've told me in 40 years ago I'd be laying tile, plumbing and adding electrical outlets I would've said you’re crazy.

ravel 7 years ago and I am lucky to be able to work when I want and travel when I want. I actually had the passion for travel and as soon as I got out of college and have been to over 20 countries. .I am a good cook now as my waistline shows but want to learn more. In that area. In addition to my rental properties I own/run 3 BNB one bedroom apartments that I rent out on Airbnb. com . Its a lot of fun and the units are only 3 blocks from my house so its easy to do in my free time and lucrative as well. When I publish my “ memoirs” about the Bnb business it will be an eye opener I promise! I am enjoying retirement but haven’t slowed down and I’m ok with that. I get back to Erie to help my elderly mother out and take care of the never ending honey doo list but I am blessed to still have her with me. Taking a 10 day cruise in February 2023 and hitting 5 more countries and planning a trip to Sicily and Malta in August…. More to come!
