From Military to Real Estate: George Paredes' Inspiring Journey
Description
Welcome to a new episode of Get Creative! Today, your host is Jordan Whittenburg, and he's joined by George Paredes, a Subto leader from Houston, Texas. In this episode, George shares his fascinating background, from struggling in high school to finding success in the military, the post office, and eventually transitioning into real estate investing. He discusses how he got involved with the Subto community, the challenges he faced, and the strategies he used to close a recent wholesale deal in Magnolia, Texas. George's story is a testament to the power of networking, relationship-building, and overcoming fears to achieve success in the world of real estate investing.
Highlights:
"Leaving the post office was kind of like a shock value, like, 'Oh, wow. What do I do now?'"
"It's about listening first about what's going on, and then being able to be confident enough to provide those solutions based on what the person on the other end is telling you."
"It's being able to take those challenges Jordan and not settling, which is something I can relate to. And when it feels like, 'Oh no, I need to improve. I need to level up.'"
"I would say just, just, it sounds as simple as cliche, but just like Nike, just doing it and obviously understanding, you know, 'What if this happens wrong? What if this happens wrong?'"
