Many of us invest in real estate for the freedom and relative control that it provides. What if you could build a lifestyle that allows you to live wherever you want, invest wherever you want, and experience that freedom on your own terms? My guest this week is doing exactly that. Billy Keels is a fellow problem-solver, international real estate entrepreneur, author, mentor, and host of the Going Long Podcast.
