The 17-Year Journey to Overnight Success in Real Estate Investing

February 4, 2020

About This Episode

Chad Lundell launched his real estate investing business a couple months ago.

He got his first solid lead after just 3 days.

Since then, he’s closed 4 deals.

From the outside looking in, Chad might look like an overnight success.

But there’s more to the story…

To REALLY understand the journey Chad is on, we have to go back 17 years.

Chad has faced more adversity than just about anyone I know. I’ll let him tell the whole story, but to give you an idea of what I mean…

There was a point where he didn’t want to keep on living.

There was a point where he was effectively homeless, with only the clothes on his back.

And then, there was a point where he ended up sitting on an airplane next to a guy named Andy McFarland.

Andy is one of the top wholesalers in the nation.

He’s one of the founding leaders of 7 Figure Flipping.

And in addition to his wholesaling operation, he also flips houses and holds a rental portfolio.

Chad, it turns out, was living in one of Andy’s rentals at the time.

And one year ago, in February 2019, they found themselves sitting side by side on a flight to Colorado. (Check out the photo for proof.)

That moment changed everything for Chad…

So I asked him to join me on the podcast today to share his story and talk about how he’s building his real estate investing business faster than just about anyone else I know.

If you’re ready to see an incredible story of personal transformation…

…then watch the video above!

Oh, and remember how I said Chad was sitting next to Andy on a plane one year ago?

The day of that flight was February 4th, 2019.

Completely by accident, we’re releasing this podcast on February 4th, 2020, exactly one year later.

Coincidence? Or something more? That’s for you to decide…
