Acquisition Profile:Smoke Wagon Properties is an opportunistic investor who is aggressively seeking new fee simple small to medium multifamily and certain single family dwelling acquisitions in the Kansas City market. Our preferred purchase is a distressed property that is in need of renovation/repairs, updating or modernization. We also acquire single family dwellings left to estates, landlords seeking divestiture of their portfolios, undermaintained or under-modernized properties. We source properties through all cash auctions, absolute auctions, online sales, HUD, foreclosures, short sales, the MLS, other websites, our network, and other investors in the Greater Kansas City area. We are able to purchase properties through traditional financing methods or cash, depending on the requirements of the investment opportunity. Investment Theory:Smoke Wagon Properties identifies motivated sellers who are in possession of underperforming, mismanaged or distressed properties. Once an investment is identified, Smoke Wagon Properties adheres to a strict and prudent underwriting and diligence process. In this way, we mitigate risks by identifying multiple exit strategies prior to investing. We invest based on each individual property’s ability to perform instead of attempting to “time the market.” Upon investing, a business plan is carefully executed using a pre-planned strategy that is created for each individual property. We strive to create passive income for retained properties through trusted third-party management partnerships. By maintaining discipline and adhering to a structured plan, Smoke Wagon Properties is able to maintain consistent and efficient performance.

I served as the Director of Emergency Services for HarenLaughlin Restoration, which is a company with a commercial restoration focus. The company was founded in 1932 and has continues to grow with each decade. As an 82+ year old, 3rd generation owned company, we continue to grow and offer our services to the Kansas City community and beyond. • Water Damage Restoration – we offer water mitigation and structural drying services.• Fire and smoke damage cleaning and restoration – We will clean and repair a structure back to pre-loss conditions. • Mold Remediation – as a local expert in the community, you can count on us to remediation mold and other unpleasant organisms from your building. • Reconstruction – As a Class A General Contractor with a commercial restoration focus and over 80 years of excellent service, you can count on us to repair your building.• Remodel/Capital Improvement – Our focus is on restoring buildings, but we have a vast amount of experience in remodeling and improving commercial real estate.

• Project Management - Responsible for managing projects, employees, subcontractors, timelines and budgets.• Estimating - While I was in this position, I was responsible for writing accurate and concise estimates that met stringent criteria. • Business Development - As a Business Development Professional my job was a combination of strategic analysis, marketing, and sales. I was involved in everything from the development of services to the creation of my marketing strategies, the generation of sales leads, negotiating and closing deals, managing my accounts and overseeing projects for services I have sold for the company.

As a Project Manager, I wore many hats from customer service rep to estimator to managing production and the actual project. I also aided in marketing and business development when possible and as the situation required. Some of my responsibilities included managing job sites, qualifying, budgeting, hiring and scheduling sub-contractors, managing job processes, monitoring, evaluating and budgeting projects. My position required that I communicate effectively with everyone involved or affected by the project. I was involved in all of my projects from the beginning to the very end. I often managed multiple projects simultaneously, which required a delicate balancing act to provide top quality customer satisfaction to all customers.

As a soldier in the United States Army, I have had extensive leadership training and held many positions, often times holding multiple positions at one time. As an Army recruiter, I represented the Army in the civilian community while enhancing and promoting the Army’s image. I was responsible developing the Army brand in the civilian community, and I was responsible for managing the recruiting station in the absence of the Station Commander. I also served as both a squad and team leader, often making decisions by thinking outside the box in order to adapt and overcome unseen problems in a fast paced unit. • Planned, organized, and conducted team level training• Evaluated situations that often required immediate decision making skills. • Responsible for meeting daily/weekly/monthly and quarterly quota requirements, marketing, area canvassing.• Assisted in managing recruiting station.
