The Power of Analytics in Real Estate Investing
In this episode of Uncontested Investing, I sit down with Sean Morgan, CEO of Forecasa, a leading analytics platform in the private lending industry.
Sean shares his unique journey from being a CPA in a big four accounting firm to transitioning into entrepreneurship within the oil and gas sector and eventually co-founding Forecasa. We dive into his experiences with data and analytics, the founding of multiple successful businesses, and his decision to pivot into real estate.
Sean also provides valuable insights into the role of analytics in navigating market shifts, the importance of maintaining company culture, and strategies for sustainable growth. We also touch on current market trends and what the private lending space might look like in 2025. Sean’s expertise and transparency provide listeners with actionable advice, especially around data utilization, effective communication as a leader, and fostering team culture in a remote work environment.
