433: $200K In Equity After Renovating Their Own House


Listen Later

Kenneth Chu and his wife didn’t plan on becoming real estate investors—they just wanted to renovate their home. But after adding an extension and converting their garage into an ADU, they fell in love with the process and realized they could turn it into a business. In this episode, David sits down with Kenneth to talk about how that one home project led to two investment properties, how they’re using ADUs to build equity and cash flow, and what they’ve learned about finding clean off-market deals in the Bay Area.
