Let Me Tell You a Quick Story

Quick story before you hit play. Chris Crosby is one of my favorite people to talk shop with, and not because he is loud about it. He is the opposite. He is the guy who will sit with you for months before he ever shows you a property, because he would rather you understand what a great deal actually looks like before he ever asks for a commission. That mindset is rare, and it is exactly why I wanted him on the show.
In this episode, Chris and I talk about leaving Boston in the middle of a blizzard at 22, why your 20s and 30s are made for taking chances, and how he built a real estate portfolio from a starter triplex while helping his clients do the same.
Here is what you will pick up:
  • The education-first model at Buckingham Investments and why it actually works
  • Smart, low-down-payment ways to get into your first rental
  • When a cash-out refinance beats a 1031 exchange (and when it does not)
  • Why an annual equity review can change the next ten years of your portfolio
  • What is happening in commercial multifamily right now after four years of rate resets, and where Chris sees opportunity
