Episode 422: Building a $100 Million Real Estate Tech Company, with Ross Hamilton

Ross Hamilton is the author of several books and Founder of Connected Investors, an investment property marketplace and social network for real estate investors. Ross discovered real estate while browsing the self-help and investing sections of Barnes and Noble. He quickly amassed a portfolio of 50 residential properties in Wilmington, then sold some of them prior to the 2008 real estate crash, using the profits to establish Connected Investors. Eventually, Ross's tech company was sold to First American for approximately $100 million, and he decided to retire at 40 years old and start a real estate-based charity to help those in need.

What you'll learn about in this episode:

• How Ross built the largest real estate investment network and sold it for $100 million
• What Ross is doing in retirement to reflect and reinvent himself
• What is going on now in the real estate market
• Ross's prediction for the real estate market 10 years from now
• How the right habits and mindset will always put you on top
• Why the people you surround yourself with have so much impact on your success
