Spencer Hilligoss is the CEO & Co-Founder of Madison Investing, a real estate investment firm specializing in real estate syndications. As a passive investor and active syndicator, he understands the unique challenges that busy professionals face when starting out on their REI journey. Spencer’s mission is to arm investors with the know-how they need to make confident investment decisions tailored to their individual life goals.Prior to pivoting to real estate, Spencer held several executive roles in the financial technology industry, including positions at Intuit and Gusto—forging a 13-year track record of building high-performing teams across five companies (three of which were valued at over $1B). Throughout his career, one thing has remained consistent: his ability to keenly focus on professional development- helping teams and individuals reach their full potential. Spencer is a member of the 2021 Forbes Real Estate Council and has been featured in publications such as Business Insider. When he’s not shifting the way people think about investing, you can find him listening to metal, adding to his tattoo collection, and jogging through the Bay Area with his wife and two sons. Ask him about the time he played onstage in San Francisco at the Vans Warped Tour!We chat about:Playing Financial Offense vs. DefenseWealth Preservation & Planning Your LegacyThe Intersection of Personal and Professional DevelopmentDeclining Executive Roles to Build Your Own Financial MoatReal Estate Syndication From A to ZConnect with Spencer at his website https://www.madisoninvesting.com/LIKE • SHARE • JOIN • REVIEWWebsiteJoin the REI Mastermind Network on Locals!Apple PodcastsGoogle PodcastsYouTubeSpotifyStitcherDeezerFacebookTwitterInstagramSUPPORT THE SHOW!Self Managing Your Rental Properties?
