About Our Guest Dyches Boddiford
Dyches Boddiford grew up on a farm in rural South Georgia, 10 miles from the small town of Sylvania. Dyches attended the Georgia Institute of Technology, graduating with a BS degree in Physics in 1971, a MS in Information & Computer Science in 1972 and post-graduate work in 1973.
In 1980 he began to learn about real estate and buy property on a part-time basis. Then around 1984, because of his travel schedule, Dyches began studying and purchasing discount mortgages. He saw this as a way to invest in real estate without the need to deal with the property itself. But even then, he continued to add properties to his portfolio for the tax advantages and appreciation. In 1986 he formed The Oaks Group, Inc. to handle real estate related activities. Over the next couple of years, Dyches was approached by a national seminar promoter to teach Corporations for him. Even though he has added additional courses over the years and is a national speaker, Dyches has remained a full-time real estate investor. That is his main business and feels that only by being active in real estate investing can he bring real world experience to his classes and materials.
