Frank LaMark
Founder & President or Lamco Investments, LLC :: Residential, Multi Family and Short Term Property Investor :: Creative Financing Income Expert
Frank LaMark is the founder of Lamco Investments LLC with a clear vision to creatively acquire properties big and small while revitalizing neighborhoods. Unmatched passion and drive I fix and flipped my first property at age 19 while still living with my parents in Itasca, Illinois. At age 20 I jumped into the auto industry and sold cars for Torco Chrysler Plymouth and then Packey Webb Ford In Wheaton/Glen Ellyn Illinois. This industry is aggressive and taught me sound fundamentals in sales, sales management and financing. Consistently achieving top sales position month after month. Fast forward 10 years, the auto industry took a down turn after 9-11 so I decided to take my sales and marketing skills I learned for a decade and I started a kitchen cabinet design showroom selling cabinetry and countertops. This new venture snowballed into manufacturing, importation and the creation of my own line of RTA – ready to assemble kitchen cabinetry. Selling in showrooms all over the country as well as online via e-commerce direct to consumer and top retailers. At the time the internet was new and some would call me a disruptor and others would call me a visionary for selling cabinetry online. Frank LaMark took this company to the top 3 retailer in online kitchen cabinetry selling to companies such as Walmart, Overstock, Amazon and Wayfair boasting $8 million in retail sales between all these channels.
Flash forward to 2018 Frank founded Lamco Investments, LLC. In 4 short years he has built an impressive portfolio of 30+ residential and multi family buildings in Illinois and Wisconsin. Specializing in creative financing, taking deals that your average investor would throw away and turning them into cash flowing properties. This quickly snowballed into acquiring properties and turning them into Short term rentals (AirBNBs) all around the Chain O Lakes.
