Ep #138: The Art of Becoming a Successful Passive Real Estate Investor - with Jeremy Roll

Our guest for this week’s show is Passive Commercial Real Estate Investment Expert, Jeremy Roll

Jeremy has been an active real estate and business investor for over 15 years who left the corporate world in 2007 to become a full-time passive cash flow investor. He is currently an investor in more than 70 opportunities across over $500 Million worth of real estate and business assets.

As Founder and President of Roll Investment Group, Jeremy manages a group of over 1,000 investors in the US and Canada who seek passive/managed investments in real estate and businesses. Jeremy also co-founded For Investors By Investors (FIBI), a non-profit organization, in 2007 with the goal of networking with, learning from, and helping other investors. FIBI is now the largest group of public real estate investor meetings in California with over 23,000 members.

I actually had the pleasure of meeting Jeremy in person a few weeks back our in Denver at a real estate conference we were both speaking at and I have to say that this man is brilliant and is someone you need to be listening to. He is 100% data driven when it comes to his investing style, which has proved very successful in his 15 years of being a passive investor.
