I had a great chat with Mushfiq. We talked about his flips, what his business looks like today, and what he sees for the future.
We compare flipping websites to real estate and talk about some of the big brands that he likes to bash publicly online via Twitter (he looks out for us smaller website owners).
In 2023, I plan to connect with at least 25 different folks in my industry and meet them for a virtual online business coffee chat.
Who should I connect with next???

Julie moved her 20 agent brokerage over to the eXp Realty a few years ago --- and she says it's better than she even initially thought it would be. She previously had 4 offices and major overhead in running her regular operation and her REO business. All of that has been reduced dramatically and she's able to run a more lean and profitable real estate business!
