  • A mistake Rolland would like you to learn from so you don’t have to pay full price for it: Real Estate investing is a long term play, patience is a virtue - you are bound to make mistakes but the R.E.I. space is very forgiving, so just go for it.

Guest speaker
Rolland Wimberly
Rolland juggles between his two W-2 jobs being an attorney, and at the same time doing long distance real estate investing. Rolland grew up helping his family’s businesses in #Alaska and that’s when he had this philosophy to work and save up to get things that you want and need. He started saving up when he was 13, and he bought his own first car at 16, and his first real estate property at 19. Having a great philosophy and mindset lets you explore different places and helps you to excel in everything you do. When you learn different things to help other people and do the things that you love to do, life has more meaning.
