This book is dedicated to my wife, Michelle; my sons, Grayson and Grant; my daughters, Sophie, Margo, and Andi Rose; my family, especially my mom, who always believed I would write a book; and the entire team here at Memphis Invest, especially my partners, my dad, Kent Clothier, Sr., and my younger brother, Brett, for putting up with me on a daily basis!
CONTENTS
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I could never have undertaken writing a book like this without the support and love of my wife Michelle and my five kids, Grayson, Grant, Sophie, Margo, and Andi Rose. Their constant love and encouragement has made this dream of publishing a book a dream worth fighting for.
I also owe a huge debt of gratitude to my dad, Kent Clothier Sr., and my two brothers, Brett Clothier and Kent Clothier Jr. Much in the same way as Memphis Invest started out for my father as notes on a restaurant napkin, this book began in another form, as a collection of blog posts and notes that have grown over time into something much bigger than I ever could have imagined.
I also want to acknowledge the thousandsand I do mean thousandsof real estate investors I have had the privilege of meeting and speaking with over the last 10 years. Those conversations, some of which I recount here in this book, helped shape my ideas of what it means to serve others in business.
I hope each of you has found the courage to take the necessary steps toward finding success in real estate. Every conversation weve had, every email weve exchanged, and every question youve asked me on stage has led to this book. May the answers in these pages arm you with a clear sense of vision and help guide your journey on the path to a prosperous future.
Lastly, this book would never have happened without the encouragement and support of my friends and colleagues who encouraged me to follow my passion and educate from my pen. There are too many people to thank to name individually. Nonetheless, know that I am grateful for the role each of you has played in helping me find the courage to take this next step.
