This is Tereo Media.

All right, hello, I am Matt Terio of the Epic Real Estate Investing show

and this is Thought Leader Thursday.

Okay, so today I'm joined by a real estate investor and agent. He's had the pleasure of working with hundreds of investors from all over the world

and help them to grow massive wealth and passive income through remote real estate investments.

He also leads a small retail real estate team working with buyers and sellers servicing all 50 states.

And in his spare time, he teaches college courses

as an adjunct professor at a handful of colleges and university.

So please help me welcome today to the show

construction so I got an engineering degree and then went out into the field as an engineer and then ended up in the construction industry and I did that for about 18 years.

So what was it about real estate that you originally found so attractive?
