Ep 114: Lessons in Real Estate with Brian Burke

The Real Estate Investing Experience

Today we speak with Brian Burke, a full-time real estate investor with over 30 years of experience to his name. Despite having completed more than $500,000,000 worth of transactions, Brian is adamant he is still learning about the industry every day. We open the show by taking a brief look at Brian’s history and real estate. After hearing about several of Brian’s early failures, he tells us about the secret to his success — tenacity. Stay tuned and you’ll hear some of his best tips when it comes to keeping business confidence, and why accumulating experience is a must-have asset. We then take a look at the current state of real estate. Brian touches on how the internet has kept cap rates competitive, and why otherwise undesirable properties have achieved premium value. In the latter half of the episode, we find out about the resources Brian uses to gather isometrics, as well as why he isn’t in the business of property management. To finish things off, we ask Brian to tell us about his business aspirations for the next few years. To hear them and a whole lot more, be sure to join us today!
