Real Estate Investing with Jason Wilmot Facebook Live

Surfing the World and Real Estate Investing [FB Live AMA: Justin Wilmot]

Last week, we held a Facebook Live Ask-Me-Anything with special guest Justin Wilmot. We talked about Justin’s experience as an investor and how to increase productivity and free up your day for more real estate investing!

Justin has become a real estate powerhouse flipping hundreds of houses valued at over $100MM, he has helped thousands of students across the nation gain financial freedom and he was named the most noticeable real estate investor under 30 (at the time).

He is a lifestyle entrepreneur, a high-performance real estate coach, an educator, a former pro-amateur competitive surfer, world traveler, father of three, and husband to his beautiful high school sweetheart. He now owns three successful real estate investing companies allowing him to not only live his ideal lifestyle traveling the world surfing, but to help others achieve their ideal lifestyle as well.
