Summary

As your business grows, you need to add a workforce to whom you can delegate the tasks so you could focus on other aspects that need your expertise. Whitney joins us today to share how he got into real estate investing, the secret behind his success, and how he was able to scale his business by creating a team.

Founder of Life Bridge Capital LLC, Whitney began his real estate investing career in 2009. Whitney’s passion is working with investors, helping them secure financial security via the exceptional opportunities that multifamily syndication offers. Whitney hosts The Real Estate Syndication Show, a daily podcast where he has now interviewed over 1200 experts providing cutting-edge tools and strategies for the syndication business.

Whitney and his wife Chelsea are on a mission to help other families through the process of adoption. They have personally endured the financial burdens that the process puts on families and have committed 50% of their profits to this goal, through The Life Bridge Foundation. Whitney and Chelsea have three children by adoption.

Key Quotes

“When you read a book, and then know how to apply it almost immediately, and then do it. It's like getting in the mind $20 to get in the mind of a millionaire.” - Josh Ferrari

“I feel like a lot of times we don't give credit to our spouses, or the one that is supporting us. 100% all the way has been behind us longer than our business partner longer than anyone else. And just because they're not in the business, you maybe don't give them the same credit. But at the end of the day, they're probably the reason that you're where you are today.” - Josh Ferrari
