Accessing your home equity, with Michael Gifford (Splitero)

from How to Lend Money to Strangers

But they're back, redesigned, and stronger than ever. In this episode, I'm speaking with Splitero's CEO, Michael Gifford, a PropTech veteran who is helping families get the most out of their real estate by accessing their home equity.
