Coaches & Mentors
E. TODD CANNON: Todd has been involved in real estate for the majority of his professional career. Initially, his primary interest was in architecture. Todd attended college at Arizona State University and completed Drafting and Design training at The Phoenix Institute of Technology, Phoenix, Az.
With a partner he formed Connelly/Cannon Architecture/Planning in Salt Lake City Utah. Together they managed that firm for more than 20 years specializing in upscale residential and commercial products nationwide and worldwide. In the mid 80′s they introduced “Green” architecture to many areas, in anticipation of the impending need for environmentally conscious design and development concepts. Todd acquired his contractor’s license during this same period of time and constructed many of the homes and projects that they designed.
Along with Todd’s real estate investment career, he is also a city Planning and Zoning Commissioner. Real estate investment and planning, along with design, development and construction have been the core of Todd’s lifelong career. From the simplest basement remodel to the revitalization of century old English estates, to the master planning of multi-million dollar communities, he has enjoyed the opportunity of working alongside some of the most creative and innovative men and women in the real estate industry.
With the recession and the decline of the U.S. housing market Todd turned his knowledge to the pursuit of investment opportunities through all forms of distressed real estate including tax deeds and liens. In doing so he discovered unimaginable opportunities for investors of all sizes and budgets. Sharing this knowledge and helping others realize their dreams of financial stability and freedom became a passion and it’s own reward.
Rick Condie: Rick has always had a passion for business. This passion has led him down many paths. He has a passion for self-improvement, and a firm belief that you will succeed at everything if you have the right formula for success in that industry.
Rick is an outgoing person with a teacher’s mentality. He learns best when he studies and then shares what he’s learned as well as putting it into practice. That led Rick to the consulting field where he has excelled for the past 8 years. He has worked with thousands of students on a one on one basis since he made that career move.
Early on Rick noticed that real estate tends to lead out as the most interesting and exciting business to be involved in. Real estate if done right is the best way to build wealth. There are many different techniques that can get you there so there’s a technique for everyone in real estate in seems.
Rick has chosen to specialize in tax sales and online marketing to find and sell real estate online. He has a very good understanding of multiple techniques but has found that most seasoned real estate investors have missed the boat when it comes to harnessing the power of the Internet.
Rick firmly believes that if you love what you do, you have a chance to be the best in the world at it. He believes it should be our goal to find that passion and then get behind it and push it to the top.

When we take our experiences from before and apply them to the steps we need to take, it helps to determine what direction to go.” John has helped numerous people start small companies guiding them to focus on their strengths and experience to accomplish their goals.
