Show Notes:
Being raised by a single mother, Andy Dane Carter realized at a young age he needed to become the man of the house. His entrepreneurial streak eventually led him into real estate investing, which is how I got to know him.
On today’s show, he shares his fascinating life’s story as well as his insights into the investor space – including a belief I share that far too many agents are missing out on investment opportunities they should be purchasing themselves instead of being content with earning a commission on a sale.
He also discusses his personal journey of growing tired with corporate America, deciding to get healthy and creating the life he always desired – even if his introduction to real estate took place at the worst time possible.
