“Shoulda bought a Cadillac, WOOOOO!!!” - Ric Flair
David Burch joins us from sunny Florida. He’s been a southern boy most of his life, growing up in Atlanta and attending University of Georgia in Athens. As with many of us, he really came into his own, rushing Lambda Ki and landing a lucrative internship at a monster law firm in ATL. He went on to practice with another firm he interned with his senior year though. Once David entered the field and go his feet wet in the law game, he found himself wanting more. David explains his view of equity in your life being akin to freedom which I love! Pulling on that thread of equity, David then found himself shifting into real estate development, hiring on with a boutique office still in his home state of Georgia. Still in the pursuit of equity, the move to Florida, “The Land of the Free”, where he opened up shop with a peer he had worked with in Atlanta. They founded Inlight Real Estate and now have offices in Florida, Atlanta, and Charleston.
David’s also a health conscious guy, starting with his morning routine, 5:30 with some lemon water and Athletic Greens. Then the kids are dropped off at school and he’s off to work. His fav book? Like a true real estate professional, it’s on negotiation, “Getting to Yes”(linked). He’s also a country music fan, citing “Buy Dirt” as the song that’s resonating right now. What would he invest in with $100,000,000? You guessed it. Dirt, specifically dirt in a poor market!
His company like any great company I believe is doing well, by doing good. They are involved in a charity known as the Faris Foundation. They work on Childhood cancer research, support creative arts programs for children with cancer and community outreach/education.
What’s the next move towards more equity for his family? His wife’s vision for more equity is something he’s investing his love and effort in as well. She has a mission based e-commerce(for now) company selling home goods/decor. You can find them on the gram @halfpastsevenhome or their online shop, halfpastsevenhome.com. Brick and mortar inbound.
That’s all for this week folks, please take a minute to share this with friends and family, leave a five star review and tune in next week. Until then, Adios!
