I appreciate you.   Gray: Yeah, excited to be here and talk to you guys about Little Rock today.   Michael: Awesome. So for those who might not know you, give us a little bit of background on yourself and how long you've been in the real estate property management game.   Gray: Yeah, so starting out in property management first about five and a half years ago. So I work with Evernest. So yeah, been in the property management game in the trenches for a long time and started helping to buy investors houses.
