Whether you've seen him online or heard great things through the real estate grapevine, our guest today needs no introduction to those in the know. With a lifelong passion for real estate and helping others maximize their wealth, we're thrilled to have on the podcast today the founder and CEO of The 1031 Investor Dave Foster.
