Bill and Kim Cook are a husband and wife real estate investing team. They began investing in real estate in 1995. Most of their investment properties are within a 5-mile circle of the Cartersville, Georgia Walmart.

Their investment portfolio consists of single-family rental homes, a small mobile home park, plus notes and options. Their REI business was built squarely on the back of knocking on homeowners’ doors. Their core belief is that real estate investing is not about buying, selling or renting property. It’s about helping folks solve their real estate problems.

Bill’s main responsibilities are meeting with sellers, structuring creative win-win deals, managing their rental properties and tenants, and taking care of the paperwork. Kim’s main responsibilities are overseeing all repairs and rehabs, marketing their properties, and selling their flips.

Bill has made a living knocking on homeowners’ doors since 1972 – since he was twelve-years old. At twelve, because he was allergic to cutting grass, he began taking his mother’s Electrolux shampooer door-to-door and offering to shampoo the homeowner’s biggest or dirtiest room for $5.
