GRIT: The Real Estate Growth Mindset
Business
Louie Hamner grew up in Indiana in a farming community with 12 other siblings. Growing up poor, he came to a point in his life where he decided that it was not a life he wanted to live. So in the summer of the 6th grade, he started earning money for himself by catching fireflies for a penny.
He was able to pay for his school books and bought things for himself with the money he earned. At his young age, this taught him the importance of hardwork and grit.
Years later, Louie started his career in the title industry. But after a couple of unfortunate events, he ended up getting fired from 2 companies in 7 months. He remembers wanting to quit at that time but his father advised him not to unless he tries again someplace else.
From 2005 to 2012, he started to build his own title business. And in 2015, he merged with Keystone Title to create Vanguard Title.
Today, Louie Hamner is the Founder of Vanguard Title Insurance Agency, LLC. He also focuses on inspiring people through his motivational talks. He's also ventured into a new area of breathwork, which he shares with people in hopes of impacting their lives in a massive way.
