021: Action Plus Action Equals Massive Action
Mike Fitzgerald shares his story of wild success in real estate investing with me. Mike is my business partner in The Dream Fund project (there will be more on that some other time.) He tells me about the early years of his real estate career. We also talk about his successes and his missteps. Not every deal is a home run and Mike has a lemons to lemonade story that will encourage and inspire you.
Mike is also one of the main champions of re-gentrifying the downtown Hagerstown, MD area. He and his company were recognized by the city and Congress for their efforts. He explains how he took a run-down, vice-ridden property, and created a draw for the downtown community. It is impressive and proof that with a little commitment, big things are possible.
