As an investor, it’s our dream to have a multitude of assets without even knowing their names. Mitch Stephen has been in the real estate investing game for 37 years as a full-time investor and is at this point of asset holding. Mitch is now the author of the book series MY LIFE & 1,000 HOUSES, and the host of the long-running show, The Real Estate Investor Summit Podcast. His focus is on educating people on how to become financially independent through real estate and boasts many successful students making passive wealth and a Twitter account named by Forbes as the “Top 9 Twitter Accounts For Aspiring RE Investors To Follow.”
