Episode Description

On this week's show I welcome Larry Taylor, Founder & CEO at Christina, as well as seasoned real estate investor. This incredible interview goes into Larry's lifelong investment strategy, stories about investing in his first building at the age of 12 years old, as well as how he has built a successful portfolio. Larry discusses with us why he has chosen Southern California and Malibu for much of his success, who he has worked with in the past including some major names, as well as advice for anyone looking to get involved in real estate success. If Larry could do it at 12 years old, there's nothing stopping most of us!

Real Estate Investing – Live from New York

Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Business Channel

Real Estate Investing, Live from New York will provide you with everything you need to know about investing and operating commercial real estate. Although the show is based in New York City, it explores the fundamentals of investing in all asset classes across the nation.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of TV and radio shows that deal with investing in the stock market and yet almost none that cover exclusively commercial real estate.

This is not a “get rich quick” or “how to flip homes” show. We will teach you step-by-step how to source, acquire, improve and operate commercial real estate. The show will start with a recap of New York City commercial real estate news, followed by an investor spotlight with a legend in the business, and then feature industry experts covering every aspect of the business.
