Ryan Hinricher and Stephen Green founded Investor Nation in 2009. The housing and mortgage crisis was in full swing and many people fled real estate investments. Hinricher and Green felt it was the beginning of a whole new real estate opportunity: value investing. These two real estate investors have executed more than ＄55 million in real estate transactions since 2000, and they know the long term, highly profitable approach isn't about "fast flips" or cheap rental properties.
