Multifamily Legacy Episode
029 - It’s the Money or Real estate is the Vehicle, the Money is in
the Money
Today, my guest is Jay Conner, a
real dude who has raised an unbelievable amount of capital and
money. He has no superpowers, but he did learn the power of raising
private money.
In this episode, we talk all
about money. Years ago, Jay was told nasty smelling stuff is really
the smell of money, so he looked for the nastiest, ugliest
foreclosure he could find and ended up making $40,000. What could
be better than being passionate about what you do and getting paid
really well for it?
