Meet the Team

Kim Lisa Taylor, Attorney
I wasn’t always an Attorney. Like many of my clients, I had a prior career; mine was as a professional geologist/environmental consultant. After 15 years, I decided it was time for a change and went to law school. When I got licensed in California in 2002, I practiced real estate and environmental law for awhile, and my husband and I started looking at real estate investing to create our nest egg.
My husband and I attended many multi-day real estate seminars and workshops taught by nationally known gurus including David Lindahl, Susan Lassiter Lyons, Scott Scheel, Robin Thompson, Eddie Speed, Dave Reynolds & Frank Rolfe, among others, and we became actively involved in several local real estate investment associations. We learned how to buy multi-family properties, mobile home parks, office buildings, retail shopping centers, self-storage, single family houses, real estate development projects and nonperforming notes.

In the course of my journey, I became a real estate investor too. I have been the managing partner in a high-end subdivision development joint venture on Lake Kewoee in South Carolina, a syndicator of an apartment complex in Columbus, Ohio, and have owned vacation rental properties in Cleveland and Saint Augustine, Florida.
I now regularly teach at real estate trading events ranging from 20 to 1,000 attendees. I have written the Amazon # 1 best-selling book “ How to Legally Raise Private Money” and host a successful podcast called “Raise Private Money Legally”.
