Making Money in Multifamily Real Estate Show

While I have truly enjoyed hosting the show over the last several years. I have found it a good time to stop producing episodes. As our real estate business develops and changes. I have to be very careful with where I spend my attention and energy. And unfortunately, I think the podcast is one of the things that I don't think I can continue without sacrificing other areas of our business.I am super, super grateful for what the show has given me over the last several years, including a lot of my own education. A lot of great relationships that I've built. I hope that in turn, the show has given you some value, whether it's something you learned, someone you ended up reaching out to, whatever it may be.I'd like to thank you for listening and if we haven't connected and you want to stay in touch be sure to reach me at [email protected] or through our website davidtravis.com. Thank you *****Thank you so much for listening to the Making Money in Multifamily Real Estate Show!
