Want to invest in real estate but fear you don't have the time or energy? You DON'T need to quit your day job to build a cash-flowing real estate portfolio, and today's guest is proof. In just two years, he scaled to six rentals (12 units) while holding down his nine-to-five—all thanks to a strategy that stretches your money further than you thought possible! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! After immigrating to the US, Hoai Nguyen took the traditional path of college, career, marriage, and children. But when he realized he'd be stuck in the rat race until normal retirement age, he went looking for a better way to build wealth—and found it in real estate. Starting with just $40,000, he used the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) to buy six rental properties in only two years! Despite Hoai's rapid success, the journey hasn't been easy. In fact, his first few properties gave him his fair share of headaches, from leaks to lawsuits. But by taking action, learning through experience, and staying consistent, he gained the confidence to keep buying rental properties. Tune in and he'll show you how to do the same! In This Episode We Cover How Hoai built a 12-unit portfolio in just two years (while working a full-time job) How to find overlooked real estate deals on the multiple listing service (MLS) The secret to getting your spouse on board with your investing goals Scaling fast with the BRRRR strategy (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) Common investing mistakes that will cost you time and money (and how to avoid them!)

Click Here for the Show Notes In this episode, we explore the transformative power of owning just one rental property. While many aspiring investors get stuck in analysis paralysis or wait for the perfect deal, the key is simply getting started. A single well-chosen property can generate steady cash flow, appreciate in value over time, offer powerful tax benefits, and help build long-term wealth. The episode breaks down how leveraging a mortgage, even with initial vacancies or downtime, can still lead to significant financial gains once the property is paid off. It also highlights why single-family homes are a great entry point for new investors, offering accessibility, simplicity, and strong demand. Most importantly, this episode encourages listeners to take action, build confidence through experience, and view that first investment as the foundation for future financial freedom. -------------------------------- Throwback Thursday Episode (The episode originally took place in the year 2021) This episode is part of our Throwback Series and may include references to older content such as webclasses, events, promotions, or links that are no longer active or available.
