Jamil Damji has turned real estate wholesaling into both a business empire and a television career. As co-founder of KeyGlee, one of the largest wholesale real estate companies in the country, and a cast member on A&E's Triple Digit Flip, Damji has built a name teaching investors how to flip properties without ever putting up their own cash. He joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to talk about the business he's built and the moment that nearly ended it all.
The conversation covers the mechanics of a triple-digit flip, but it also turns personal, with Damji opening up about a near-death experience that reshaped how he thinks about the empire he's spent nearly two decades building.
