After earning his degree at Auburn University in Auburn, AL, Tracey chose to enter the IT staffing industry. His first employer was a national staffing firm, where he eventually became the manager of their Washington, DC office.
After five years with the firm, Tracey and four others left to form Prestige Staffing. This firm expanded from the original five partners to more than a hundred employees. Over time, Prestige established offices in Austin, Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Dallas, and St. Louis. All told, he invested 15 years in the firm.
Seeking a change from the corporate treadmill, Tracey sold his interests in Prestige and made the leap into real estate. 2018 was a pivotal year, with Tracey entering a mentorship program with Ken. Since that time, he’s acquired and sold more than 75 properties. His approaches vary, ranging from buying and holding, fixing and flipping, and wholesaling.
