EP 13: Turning $44K Into Your Million Dollar Dream Home with Lisa and Clark Cordner

Many investors have lofty goals of owning their ideal properties. Maybe it's a lake house like the Cordner's. Their story is an inspiring one and in this episode, we deep dive into how they have used Real Estate over the years to fuel their passions and build wealth all while growing into their dreams. It was a pleasure to see in person the dream they have realized and the way that they are combining it with their non-profit to give back to the community in ways that they are passionate about. Get encouraged and I hope this episode inspires you to dream and commit to the journey to achieve it.
