QUOTES

  • "I learned really quickly that I wanted to be the IRA investor lending. I wanted to be the guy that was lending me the money because he wasn't doing anything. He was passively collecting checks, not paying taxes." - Greg Herlean
  • “I'm a true believer when it's your retirement money, you've spent maybe decades on saving that we want to answer all your questions. We're going to make it smooth. So we do a 15, 20 minute phone call. That's it. Get your application filled out over the phone. Then it's emailed to you, so you get to review everything that you filled out.” - Greg Herlean
  • “The amount of money that's there to do different deals and the amount of opportunities is limitless.” - Greg Herlean
