LOUIE LEGER T he commercial real estate company Leger Investments pioneered the rapidly growing short-term rental market in Louisville and continues to expand its portfolio. Now specializing in short-term rentals, long-term rentals, and property acquisition, Owner/CEO Louie Leger is equally passionate about sharing his secrets to success in entrepreneurship and building generational wealth. At age seven, he left Haiti by a small boat with his father and brother. Following unimaginable hardships, they settled in Indianapolis, where Leger graduated from Pike High School. He then attended Indiana University and IUPUI. With the help of investors and partners, Leger Investments has scaled the company and brought on more investors/partners to continue growing. They currently have fully furnished apartments and office space for rent. Leger leads with vision. “I can see market trends before they become popular. I’m also a leader that leads by example.” The best advice he’s gotten is not to be afraid of failure. According to Leger, “It’s only failure if you give up. Also, if you’re not failing, you’re not trying any ideas or pushing yourself hard enough.” Leger hopes his story of struggle, perseverance, and success is encouraging. “I want everyone to know that if this poor Haitian kid can do it, you can, too,” he says. “I believe that we are all born with a gift and owe it to the world to get our gift out there. Unfortunately, many people have many great ideas that they never move on because of fear. I inspire others by action.”
