About Devin Cordell
I first moved to Alabama when I was seven years old, moving back home with my mother and brother after her divorce from my father. We ended up moving around frequently between West Jefferson, Sumiton, Forestdale, and Graysville, among other parts of Jefferson and Walker counties. We had serious housing instability, and if it weren’t for my grandparents and an aunt and uncle, there were times we would have been homeless. The last two years of high school, I was living out of a shed.
I left home just days after graduating and the day before I turned 18, enlisting as a United States Marine. I had the opportunity to serve from 2006 to 2015 before I was separated due to injury. After leaving the Marine Corps, I stayed in Quantico, VA for another five years, performing cyber security work for the federal government. In 2021, we decided it was time to return to Alabama. I still worked a security role in Birmingham for a time while I started buying investment properties on the same block I had left as a teenager. Eventually, my investing took off and I went into real estate full-time.
I have been fortunate to turn my experience of housing instability, and the discipline instilled in my from both my childhood and my time in the Marine Corps, into a driving force to create generational wealth for my children while providing safe and stable housing opportunities for others.
I look forward to being able to assist you with your own path!
