Unconventional with Bill Tessar

In this episode of Unconventional with Bill Tessar, we're joined by Kip Adkins, a trailblazer whose journey to success is anything but ordinary. Kip’s path in real estate started in the trenches, handling REO dispositions for GMAC and navigating the tough world of evictions. But he didn’t stop there. With an unwavering belief in himself and a true leap of faith, Kip made a bold move when most were backing away—he launched his own real estate brokerage at the peak of the financial crisis.
 
With no income guarantees, a family to support, and a market in freefall, Kip was chips all in on his vision. His story is a powerful testament to the grit, resilience, and willingness to embrace risk that defines true entrepreneurship. Join us as Kip shares how he transformed obstacles into opportunities and built Diversified Financing Solutions from the ground up. Get ready to be inspired by Kip's Unconventional path to success!
