I'm ready all right so guys are the live questions so be sure to ask your questions for RJ to answer.

So, first question is, what got you into real estate?

So my partner, Cassie and I, we were general contractors, and, you know, we started our company, our first company in 2012, and it was just a constant

struggle. I mean, we were, to be quite frank, not very good contractors. And that was because

myself as a leader, you know, it wasn't what I was meant to do. You know, I, it just, it didn't

resonate with me. And, but we, you know, we were getting hired by

different real estate investors to do their flips. And I kept asking questions, you know,

I was like, how did you find this, you know, terribly ugly house in this beautiful neighborhood,

you know, and the constant theme was I kept hearing the word wholesaler, you know, bought it house in this beautiful neighborhood, you know, and the constant theme was I

kept hearing the word wholesaler, you know, bought it from a wholesaler. You know, this guy, he emails me,

you know, a deal a day. And as a general contractor, you're kind of the middleman. You have your

subcontractors and you have your client. And as a wholesaler, that's what you are. You're the middleman.
