CEO and Founder of Redstone Residential that owns over $1 billion and manages over $4 billion in assets joins FYF to discuss:
- Getting escorted out of his first corporate job… with a smile on his face!
- Took the risk of an unpaid internship to learn from real estate experts
- Dug in to find opportunities of low hanging fruit
- Started growing and investing in multi-family with experienced partners
- Raised $2m for his 1st student housing deal
- Now manages over $4 billion in assets, with 37k leases across 16 states
Entrepreneur Lessons:
- Mythologizing Entrepreneurship as coming up with the next billion dollar idea, when it really is just being good at business and being better than the competition in any niche.
- Stay the course
- Taking the leap of having a low burn rate early on, so he could intern and learn from some of the best in the business to gain massive knowledge to put himself in the best position when the opportunity arises.
- Partnerships help you through the dark times, and can rely on each other's differing skill sets.
- Figure out what you think is fair, and “be North of fair” for both your team and your investors.
- Integrity is the most important trait in business
