Description

In each quick and impactful episode, you'll discover practical strategies to successfully help you find and fund your next cash-flowing rental. Gain insights on spousal alignment, time management, increasing deal flow, self-managing, and creative financing, all designed to accelerate your journey toward financial independence. Plus, you'll hear real success stories—and the occasional blunder—from our journey. As your host, I'm not just talking the talk. I'm a husband, father of three, nomadic traveler, homeschooling parent, investor, syndicator, capital raiser, private/hard money lender, bestselling author, and virtual community leader. Through our BRRRRs for Busy Parents program, we're helping families with 1-3 rentals fast-track their path to financial independence. Join us to master the art of side-hustling real estate, build lasting wealth, and make the most of the BRRRR strategy.
