David Lawver is a Mortgage Lending Expert, and a Real estate Investor. David started out in real estate lending 15 years ago, and 7 years ago started getting into real estate investing.

Ask and extract information but also take action with it.

Mike is a broker, investor, and also doing property management in LA. He was in the cosmetic industry before he got into real estate focusing on multifamily since 2002. He was looking for different types of investment he can invest in. For him, Multi-family is very management intensive and is the best way to build wealth over time. Mike believes that anybody can enter these markets, and you don't have to start with a ton of money.

On the other hand, the real estate market is a slow-moving market that we can look for indicators in the overall economy. For that reason, you can have plenty of time to make adjustments before the market gets too far away from you. Though it’s very hard to time the market, the only certainty is that there is a crisis coming.

Jake is a data machine and a data cruncher.  He does private equity real estate and is currently investing in the secondary and tertiary urban core. He believes that there’s urbanization of downtown America everywhere. Jake looking forward to the next recession so focus on reflecting debt, and putting an opportunistic fund right now.
