In this episode, I break down exactly how I scaled from 0 to 25 rental properties using the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat)  starting in 2020, and what I would do differently in today’s 2026 market.

This conversation originally aired on The Ideal Investor Show with Axel Meierhoefer, where we went deep on:
✅How to scale rental properties past 20+ units
