Matt Theriault is here today to break down three of his epic real estate investment strategies. Matt is the founder of Epic Real Estate, and his strategies are as creative as they are epic. You’re going to want to start using them immediately after listening to today’s episode.
Matt is from California, but he turnkeys most of his properties throughout the country, including Missouri and Minnesota. His approach to Epic Real Estate is to create as many offers as possible to give himself, his team, and his buyers the best bang for their buck. Matt’s business is divided into their tiers: education, turnkey, and funding. I ask him how the three work together to build his team and his portfolio, and he shares all the ways he leverages his resources and his skills to create these amazing investment strategies.
We’re always talking about successful investments on this podcast, but there’s a time to address the challenges too. Without challenges, there is no way to measure our success. Matt’s challenges are no different than ours, but his approach to solving them might be. The way you succeed is to learn from yourself and from others’ mistakes. Hearing how Matt deals with property managers may help you find and hire the right people to boost your team. The stronger your team, the better prepared you will be to implement the systems and strategies we break down on today’s episode. So tune in now and check out the resources Matt uses to strategize success!
