In this CarrotCast episode, (have you Subscribed yet on iTunes??? If not, do it and rate us, we’ll love you forever!) … Trevor is joined by Brian Evans, real estate investor, and owner of The First Deal. The First Deal focuses on helping new investors close their first deal or their first 100 deals.

Brian’s real estate journey started from a spot where not many other real estate investors find themselves, working on Wall Street in the Trump building.

One day he came home to find a book from his Father waiting for him. There was a post-it note on it that read “Son, read this, take notes, let’s talk. Dad”. That book changed his life, his way of thinking, and drove him into the excitement of real estate.

From there, he practically forced two real estate investing brothers to hire him as an apprentice. WITHOUT PAY. He learned the industry and closed his first deal with them in 2004 for $42,000. He hasn’t looked back since.

  1. Great show. I like his straight-up approach on informing potential sellers of his business model. I try to do the same thing with varying degrees of success. Some people are more prepared for it than others. It’s all in the sell!
