In this episode, I talk to Jeremy Brown, a real estate investor with a fascinating story.
Before landing, Jeremy spent 17 years in publishing, helping authors write and market books in a way that built authority and launched businesses. But when her son was born with severe bilateral clubfoot, everything changed. His family hit the road in a sprinter van, crisscrossing the country for treatment, and investing in land became the only thing that could keep them afloat financially while they worked 10 to 15 hours a week.
We cover Jeremy’s pivot from publishing to real estate, how he made over $18K in a deal that paid for critical treatment, the power of storytelling in conversations with sellers, and the “BURN” framework that helps investors unlock off-market deals using your life story.
