Why Legacy?

When a person passes, the mark they left on the world represents their Legacy. It is about the richness of their life, which is measured by their accomplishments, and the impact they had on other people and places. The name Legacy was chosen with intention because we have created something that builds legacies for others, as well as ourselves. Legacy RED does this by generating Financial Wealth and Real Estate, which are the means that often put people in the right position to make a significant impact on the world however they see fit. Our ability to enrich ourselves and those whom we do business with in a voluntary exchange of goods and services are one of the many great ideals this nation was founded upon. It is the essence of the American dream, and that is what makes us proud of our work. It is Legacy RED’s legacy to be a vessel for the American dream and to encapsulate it through action. 

“90% of millionaires are made so through real estate.”
