Episode Details

Mark Walker has been an active real estate investor since 2004, so he brought a wealth of knowledge with him when he founded Luxmana Investments in 2011.  He started out as a part-time investor––holding a full-time job in high tech––and his passion for real estate enabled him to escape the rat race of Corporate America.

Prior to Luxmana, Mark succeeded in multiple development projects in the trendy Highlands and Berkley areas of Denver, Colorado.  Since then, he has acquired dozens of residential and multifamily income properties through Luxmana Investments LLC, which he founded in 2011, and Peak Margin Partners LLC, which he co-founded in 2013.

Mark holds a degree in Marketing from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and has successfully overseen the operations of his own assets, and that of other investors, in Colorado, Texas, Florida and Illinois.
