Active Duty Military, Cancer Survivor, Warrior Turning Real Estate Investor Matt "Roar" Gardner

Surviving an economic meltdown is impressive but surviving cancer and aiming to become a successful real estate investor after cancer is much more admirable. That’s what my guest, Matt “Roar” Gardner, brings to the table. Matt is a Major in the United States Air Force, currently serving active duty as a fighter and evaluator pilot. After being diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma and while undergoing chemotherapy, he decided to build a career as a real estate investor. He is passionate about learning the skills to become successful as a property wholesaler and flipper.

Today, Matt shares his experience as a fighter pilot in the military, how being diagnosed with cancer and surviving it changed his life forever, and the moment he became enamored in real estate investing. We discuss how to establish good working relationships, the benefits, and drawbacks of working with large and small private money lenders, and tools new investors can use to improve their business efficiency.
