🎥 DESCRIPTION
Today's guest owns a little bit of real estate... As in, he owns $5.5 billion of real estate through his private company, DLP Capital. Don Wenner, 40-years-old, founded DLP Capital - standing for Dream, Live, Prosper - in 2006 and has since spearheaded its meteoric growth, with the firm ranking on the Inc. 5000 list of “Fastest Growing Private Companies in America” for 12 consecutive years. But more than that. Don is a husband, father, and amazing human.
Specifically, we talk about:
• the systems and processes needed to manage $5 billion of real estate
• setting a vision and working backwards
• making the transition from being an agent to an investor
• a lot of book recommendations
• how to create and use a personal "compass"
• and sooooo much more!
