How Gregory increased his networth through Keyspire progams, tools & training:

“The 4 ways to win was a pivotal tool in finding the perfect property for our first investment, by utilizing this one powerful tool we were able to identify a terribly underperforming property and project a real possible outcome that was not just speculation but real numbers we could work with. We utilized a HELOC from our principal residence with the help of a Mortgage Broker and our power team, we were successful in securing our property. In 6 months we completed a full renovation of the property including all utilities plumbing, HVAC, and interior a deck and landscaping. This included a significant amount of “Sweat Equity” and turned an underperforming $900 dollar a month property into a beautiful $2,800 a month property. In less than a year we increased the value of the property by $130,000 bringing our net worth up to $960,000″

Gregory talks about the biggest benefit from joining Keyspire:

“The training I received from Keyspire gave me the tools and a focused approach I needed to set me on the right path towards financial security. It also helped eliminate the fear and uncertainty in my own ability, the education and training gave me the confidence to deal with other professionals in the market.
The largest take-away I now subscribe to is the precept of trading my time for money, I no longer trade all of my time for money. I don’t sign up for extra shifts at work, I spend more time adding value to myself and my family by way of education and talking with Mentors and other members of my power team. I invest in myself now… for this I have to say Thank you!”

Prior to joining Keyspire, Gregory was a professional tradesman earning an excellent wage, however Gregory wanted more security for his retirement and ventured into real estate investing to create his own Financial Freedom Day.
