Who’s behind Traction REIA®
We weren’t born into real estate investing—and we didn’t build Traction REIA® from a marketing plan. We were members first. Back then, we knew absolutely nothing about real estate investing. This group is what helped us cut our teeth, get our first real traction, and eventually leave our 9–5 jobs behind. In 2008, the previous leadership—ready to retire—asked us to take over. We said yes. And we’ve been running Traction REIA® with love ever since.

Why we lead it this way
Because we’ve lived the transformation personally. Traction REIA® wasn’t “nice to have” for us—it was the turning point. So we run this group the way we wished every REIA operated: practical training, real connections, and a consistent monthly rhythm that moves investors from learning… to doing.
