Early life
[edit]Engelo Rumora spent most of his childhood in his home country, Australia. He picked up playing soccer at a very young age and wanted to be a professional soccer player. He dropped out of high school at the age of 14 to focus on this sport. In 2005, at the age of 18, Engelo did become a professional soccer player but didn't quite achieve the level of success he had wanted.[2]
Career
[edit]Since Engelo had not finished his formal education, he started working on construction sites as a laborer. As said by Engelo Rumora himself, everything changed when a friend gifted him the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki.[2] Engelo then started attending a lot of personal development conferences and lectures on business, finance, real estate and investment. During one of these seminars, he met a real estate investor who mentored him and helped him in his initial journey of property investments.
In 2009, Engelo started working for him as an apprentice for a couple of years before moving on. His knowledge into investment coupled with construction knowledge led him to buy his first property in Victoria, Australia in 2012.[3] Within the next six months, he bought seven more properties. After this, Engelo decided to move to the U.S.[4]
After moving to the US, Engelo founded the turnkey real estate investment company, Ohio Cashflow. Ohio Cashflow specializes in providing turnkey properties in the Toledo, Dayton, Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio markets.[5]
