Wealth Building Strategies through Real Estate – Guest Interview with Linda Pliagas
Aug 27, 2019
Today’s show is all about wealth building strategies through real estate, so you’re really going to want to listen to this one.
My guest is a real superstar in this field. She is California investor, Linda Pliagas. Linda has done wholesaling, fix and flips and more, but she’s a buy and hold investor at heart. Linda has invested in single family homes, vacation homes. multi-family properties, as well as commercial properties. She also produces two awesome digital magazines, Realty 411 and REI Wealth. I’ve had the honor of writing for REI Wealth for a couple of years now. These are great publications that you need to check out. Linda regularly hosts events for the sole purpose of educating real estate investors.
Buying her First Property as a College Student
Linda has a very interesting story to tell, and she loves real estate!
Her fascination with real estate began when she was still in college (which is also when she bought her first property). While she was in school, she came to realize how little she would be making as a journalist when she graduated. She was going to need a “side hustle” which of course turned out to be real estate investing.
So, how did she get started?
Like a lot of people, she bought an awful fixer upper that no one else wanted. That’s where it all started, and it’s what got her where she is today.
