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?
