Joe Jurek - CPA, Real Estate Investor, Author and Speaker
Hello Everyone, my name is Joseph Jurek. I am a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) by training and worked in Corporate America for several years as a Chief Financial Officer. After reaching the pinnacle of my accounting career, I realized I wanted more from life than my daily grind job could offer. In 2010, I had left corporate America to pursue real estate investing full time with my wife, Stacey. Since that time I have completed numerous real estate deals using various strategies including wholesaling, lease options, tax liens, buy-fix-resell and buy-and-hold rentals.
Ongoing learning and a passion for teaching others continues to be a very enjoyable part of my successful real estate investing career. In conjunction with my previous career I taught financial accounting courses at Purdue University. My success with real estate has now given me the opportunity to motivate and teach thousands of students in more than 200+ cities through-out the United States and Canada. I enjoy working with clients through consulting, coaching, group trainings and motivational speaking.
I have contributed in writing several real estate books, written many articles and blogs on real estate investing as well as created more than 200 instructional videos on real estate investing currently being posted on Twitter - Joe Jurek CPA and You Tube - Joe Jurek Real Estate Investing Adventures.
I also wrote a book and made an infomercial on how to profit from leveraging Craigslist and eBay, entitled “Buy Local and Sell Global”.
Having traveled through almost all 50 states, I currently reside in Central Florida with my family and I enjoy spending time at the beach or all the theme-parks. I also enjoys traveling with his family to other warm destinations such as Hawaii and California. I am an avid sports fan who follows several professional teams and attends live sporting events as often as I can. I believe anyone can experience success with real estate as long as they are willing to be open-minded and learn, then follow-up by taking action.
I live by the mantra, “Believe and Achieve!” Anyone can do this if they only believe and take action to achieve! :) - Joe
