Partner, Grey Fox Wealth

My clients [and a lot of people in the US] don’t know how to get involved in real estate investments in a way that’s efficient for them and improves their wealth generation. Partnering with JLAM gives my clients access to the same opportunities a developer’s best friends are investing in.
