Skipping College Class to Millionaire Real Estate Investor - Hayden Crabtree

Welcome back everybody to the Self Storage Income Podcast! This is your host, AJ Osborne!    I have a good friend and fellow self storage investor Hayden Crabtree on the podcast today to talk all things getting started in self storage investing and a pretty incredible piece of technology that he's been working on and is bringing into the world of commercial real estate.    After deciding the college route wasn't for him, he decided to get a mentor and started into real estate investing. And find a mentor he did - Hayden linked up with a successful investor and worked for them for free just for the opportunity to learn and surround himself with the right people. Soon after that, he started working for equity in the deals that they were making.    Since then, Hayden has experienced numerous real estate investment successes (and some set-backs of course), and is now putting a huge emphasis on self storage investing.    We're going to talk about how he found his first deal, the lessons he learned, the mistakes he made, and why he's decided that self storage is the place to be all in. We then of course jump into the awesome piece of tech that he's working on - My Property Stats. I'm not going to dive into it here, but My Property Stats is probably one of THE most needed tools in the real estate investment industry. Listen to learn more and be sure to check out the link below.    Also be sure to pick up a copy of Hayden's best selling book 'Skip the Flip' that has a wealth of knowledge and insights for anyone wanting to immediately get into the commercial real estate investing game.    Thanks everybody, AJ     Invest with Cedar Creek: https://cedarcreekwealth.investnext.com/portal/capital_raise/358/ Success doesn’t happen on an island, which is why I’ve launched the CRE Circle.
