Our “Real Estate Investor in the Spotlight” this month is Richard Gomez, an Army Colonel, licensed realtor, and Chief Operating Officer of Miranda Roldan Studios, LLC.
With 22 years of service, he has built a diverse portfolio that includes single-family homes, multifamily units, condos, and short-term rentals across multiple states. His real estate journey began with a fourplex in Killeen, Texas, purchased while serving as a young lieutenant. That first deal sparked an interest that led to success in multiple markets, with a focus on Florida’s condo sector and long-distance property management.
Richard’s investment approach emphasizes diversification, careful risk assessment, and creative financing—principles shaped by lessons from his military career. He has weathered challenging market cycles, including the 2008 housing crisis, and is open about the mistakes that have made him a stronger investor.
Today, he continues to expand his holdings while mentoring other investors on asset protection, effective property management, and building sustainable income streams for long-term success.
Thanks for being part of our Academy Fund community, Richard!
