  • 61: Transitioning from professional hockey to building and scaling multiple real estate businesses with Bob Lachance
    Nov 11 2021

    The guest on Colin Podcasts Show 61 is Bob Lachance, a former professional hockey player who played with the St. Louis Blues and multiple teams in Europe. After his hockey career ended at the age of 29, Bob dove deep into the real estate business in 2004. He started on the ground, literally knocking on doors and through a series of smart partnerships and resilient business models he transacted hundreds of deals through the turbulent 2004-2014 period.

    Fast forward to 2021 and he is still doing 10+ deals per month and he is also the founder of both REVA Global, a large virtual assistant company and FortuneBuilders, a very well known coaching platform. In short, Bob has a very interesting story and I was delighted to speak to him about it!

    There are some great actionable tips in this episode, particularly for listeners who would like to learn more about how they can harness the power of virtual assistants (VAs) to increase their productivity and quality of life in a host of areas, including real estate.
