Through collaboration with high-level investors and business owners, we share the secrets of creating generational wealth and providing a pathway to financial freedom to help you fulfill your life's potential.
On this episode of the VRA Investor Agent Podcast, we have the pleasure of interviewing Greg Davis.
Greg Davis always knew from a very young that he was meant to be in real estate and to those who know him best, it’s no real surprise that he would find his true passion there. After all, his family has been in real estate for over 90 years and has been involved in various facets of the business including new home construction, real estate brokerage, property management, and both residential and commercial development, but it took him a while to get there.
Knowing he needed to pursue his passion for real estate, he obtained his real estate license in late 2003 and subsequently bought his first rental property in 2004. He also ran a small wholesaling business for a period and still enjoys doing rehabs for buy & hold and fix & flip projects. To fulfill his strong passion for helping others, he served as a board member and subgroup leader at two local REIAs and has also mentored individual investors as well.
Originally from Delaware County, he moved to the West Chester Area at a young age, where she currently lives with his wife, two daughters, and all their “furry family” members. Greg has also lived year-round in Ocean City, NJ at various points in his life and has spent most of his summers there. He’s as passionate about the ocean as he is about real estate. He’s been surfing and sailing Hobie catamarans since age 6 and enjoys riding waves on his kayak and stand-up paddle board and says that he will continue to do those activities until he’s no longer able. With his passion for the coast and knowledge of the South Jersey towns from his prior career and from owning investment properties there, he obtained his New Jersey real estate license in 2022 so he better serve his clients in both the PA and NJ markets.
As an investor/agent with a strong background in real estate, construction, business management, and contracts & legal writing, Greg can combine his experience and passion for helping others in a very unique way. His experience allows him to see and address problems and pitfalls that other agents and investors can’t see and to provide his clients, investors, and entrepreneurs with the right tools to ensure they make the best decision to fuel their future growth and success.
In 2003, he obtained my license and purchased my first investment property. I planned to transfer to real estate as a full-time career at that time, but my second daughter was so excited to meet her family that she came into the world a few months early at a mere 3 pounds, 3 ounces and stayed in the Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit for a few months to gain her strength, so I decided to stay on and continue to build the environmental company to maintain stability for my family. I also continued in real estate part-time and started wholesaling properties to investors as well as buying & holding my own rentals and fixing & flipping properties.
