You know what's best for you—that's the advice today's guest offers, and it's the exact mindset that took him from house hacking on a teacher's salary in his mid-20s to quitting his job with a four-property portfolio at 30. If you're still stuck answering to someone else, today's guest will show you that you don't have to!
Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Jake Handler took a bet on himself, from buying his first property on a teacher's salary to building a four-property portfolio and walking away from the career he once expected to keep for life. Jake breaks down how he house hacked his way into real estate after a lender told him no, how he negotiated a seller-financed deal that soon housed his in-laws down the road, and how to score someone else's 2.75% interest rate!
If you have a stable career and every reason to stay comfortable, Jake's story is proof that the biggest risk might actually be staying where you are!
