Realty411: What can investors ex-
pect at your Find and Flip Summit

all about showing investors how to
take the next step towards financial

We have an amazing group of

the country coming myself, Grant

properties, sold over $1 Billion in
2017 alone, and manages or owns
rental portfolios valued at over
$1.3 Billion.
It will be the best-of-the-best
and will create massive impact
to the 500 plus attendees we are
expecting.
Realty411: What are some mar-
kets that your team is most inter-
ested in acquiring properties in?
KENT: Memphis, Phoenix, San
Diego, Oklahoma City, Dallas/
Ft. Worth, Houston, Las Vegas,
and Little Rock are just a few of
the markets that we are currently
really focused on.
Realty411: Can you give our read-
ers some advice on how they can
get their investment career to the
next level?
KENT: Pay close attention to
who you are learning from. Do
they have the scars? Do they have
the experience and wisdom you
desire? Are they living the life that
you desire or are they just really
good at marketing?
Your mentors should have bul-
let-proof systems, processes, on-
line trainings, and lead-generation

 systems. We have worked really hard over the years at
REWW and Memphis Invest to truly demonstrate what
it takes at every level of the game and to be leaders in
the market for anyone to follow.
Realty411: Who are some of your mentors or people
who have impacted your way of thinking?
KENT: I have had mentors my entire life that have
helped guide my career. My father played a critical
role in early business and leadership development.
He pushed my brothers and I harder than most peo-
ple would think is normal, but it paid off. Outside of
him, there have been a ton. Specifically, Sal Ricciardi,
Roland Frasier, Frank Kern, my uncle John Blood-
worth.

diversified by having an array of products such as
1-800-SELLNOW, Find Motivated Sellers Now, Find
Cash Buyers NOW and Find Private Lenders NOW.
Do you believe in diversifying in different markets as
well for your real estate portfolio?
KENT: I do. I own properties or notes in Florida,
Tennessee, Texas, Arizona, and California. To your
point, I have business interests in many facets of real
estate, digital marketing, online training, software as a
service, an investment fund.
My partners and I are always looking for ways to
expand our reach and add to our portfolio of compa-
nies and properties.

2018 and beyond?

Realty411: What are some of your favorite ways to
unwind and rejuvenate?

KENT: I love to hang with my wife and kids. Love

to go to the beach here in San Diego, go paddle
boarding, or just travel the world.

Realty411: Real estate is a relationship-based

business, what are some ways investors can create
rapport to enhance their careers?

KENT: Decide what your core values really are

and only communicate from that place. What do
you stand for? What do you stand against? Why are
you doing what youre doing? Why does your busi-
ness matter? What impact are you trying to create
in the market?
You see, people want to belong. We are all look-
ing for our tribe and want to surround ourselves
with people that inspire us or make us feel better
about life. So, being clear on who you are first and
then being very out there with that information,
allows people to quickly connect with you.
It also allows you to cut through all the noise
and confusion and just surround yourself with peo-
ple that are going to build you up, make you better,
and make this business more successful. It will also
allow you to easily run off the naysayers and time
vampires. They wont want anything to do with
you. Best part, either way you win.

Realty411: Youve stepped back from speaking at

many events, how can our readers learn from you
if they cannot attend a live event?

Kent: We are not hard to find. We have hundreds

of YouTube videos, Facebook posts, blog posts,
articles, and a big social media presence. Go look
up Kent Clothier or Real Estate Worldwide and
youll find a ton of stuff out there.
But in the end, theres nothing like one of our live
events and getting that raw and uncut informa-
tion straight from the horses mouth. Do whatever it
takes to get there, but Ill make it worth your time.
Guaranteed. :)

best parts of being a real estate investor is the freedom to
spend time with family. In these photos Seema, his wife, along
with their daughters enjoy quality time with Kent.
