Summary

On this episode, Gino is with Lee Fjord, a Jake and Gino community member. Lee talks about his experience of joining the community.

0:00.0	It was limiting beliefs.
0:01.7	It was purely the fact that I thought that I was limited to the dollars in my Movers and Shakers podcast.
0:35.4	My name is Gino Barbara, co-founder of Jake and Gino,
0:38.1	multifamily investor, educator, father, and mentor. Today's guest was on the show two years ago when he
0:44.9	closed his first deal. Now he has closed an additional 440-ish more doors and he's back for more.
0:52.4	Leafyard transitioned into multifamily in 2017 after starting out
0:56.0	as a property manager in 2012. He has built a portfolio of approximately 470 doors in his backyard

1:45.9	started taking phone calls and I am in Panovija, Florida, and I get on with a gentleman
1:50.4	named Lee Fjord and I'm trying to pitch Lee to join the community. And Lee must have thought
1:54.9	I was crazy. He ended up joining. And the versus history, just can you remember that conversation
2:00.1	and can you take the listeners back to what was the decision before you joined?
