Listen "125: 3 Deals in 2017 to 40 Deals in 2018 with Lee Taylor"
Episode Synopsis
Lee Taylor is a real estate investor in the Middle Georgia area. Like many, he had a corporate job in transportation managing a trucking company. His career in investing began after he reached out to a friend of his who went on to help Lee with his first property. Lee bought his first investment property in August 2016, his first flip in August 2017, and was able to quit his job and begin investing full-time. With over 34 properties purchased already- most of those with some type of partnership- he has big plans for house flipping in 2018. "It was a challenge but we scraped and hustled and made it work, and we've just taken a lot of action," says Lee. Lee shares with Danny the ins and outs of his business and how he decides which options are the best for house flipping in 2018. He explains that one of the most proven methods for finding deals and private lenders is networking and relationship building, and contributes much of his success to these methods. "I don't believe in competition, I believe in collaboration." He now focuses on lead generation, and later goes into detail about his various exit strategies depending on what is the best option for the given property. After establishing himself in his market, Lee made the decision to co-run his local REIA with a fellow investor, and dedicates a great deal of his time to helping and educating other investors in his area. He is appreciative of the opportunities that came to him from different events and groups, and wants to be able to share what he learned with others in a collaborative effort, rather than strictly competitive. As the market appears to be beginning to change, he hopes to one day expand into other areas of the industry such as property management and construction.
