Real Estate, Real Life.
Short-term, mid-term, and a little long-term magic—a glimpse into my journey of building homes, income streams, and new chapters.
I started investing in real estate to create freedom—not just income.
It wasn’t flashy. It wasn’t overnight.
It was one decision at a time: from my first subject-to deal, to my first mid-term rental, to investing overseas.
This page is a little glimpse into what I’ve built so far—and what’s possible when you bet on yourself.
Why Real Estate Still Matters
In a world where markets swing wildly and tech valuations rise and fall overnight, real estate remains one of the most reliable ways to build long-term wealth.
Unlike stocks, real estate is a hard asset—it’s tangible, it’s usable, and it tends to appreciate steadily over time.
Even during economic downturns, real estate has historically outperformed stocks in terms of stability and recovery.
It’s not just about “buying property”—it’s about creating assets that can weather storms, produce income, and offer a sense of control you just don’t get from Wall Street.
