JF1683: Keeping An Open Mind Towards Investments & Leaving Your Job For REI #FollowAlongFriday with Ellie Perlman and Joe

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow Along Friday time! Today, Joe is joined by Ellie Perlman who is also a multifamily syndicator and podcast host. Ellie covers keeping an open mind and tells us a story about a deal she recently closed on, had she stuck to her traditional strategy and not been open minded, she wouldn’t have closed the deal. Joe then answers a listener question about how they can take some capital they have and leave their job, surviving off of real estate investing only.
