Today's guest is Chris Prefontaine! Chris is the best-selling author of 2017’s Real Estate On Your Terms and 2019’s The New Rules of Real Estate Investing. A real estate investor with over 28 years experience in the field, Chris is the founder of Smart Real Estate Coach and host of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast.
