From Side Hustle to Real Estate Giant: The Story of Re/Max Co-Founder

Dave Liniger, co-founder and chairman of Re/Max, started his real estate empire by working three jobs to save enough money to buy and flip a small fixer-upper house. He reinvested his profits and acquired a real estate license, eventually co-founding Re/Max with his wife. Liniger shares his top leadership lessons, including selling optimism, surrounding yourself with positive influences, supplementing weaknesses with talented hires, and not beating yourself up over mistakes. Despite a personal loan controversy, Liniger remains focused on his decades of success and reputation as an executive.
