Jake and Austin Deraaff are twin brothers based out of the “big apple.” After 24 long months of college, they knew this “traditional route” wasn’t the best option for them. After calling it quits and dropping out of school, they found an online course on how to make money in real estate with no money down.

After being told by every friend, family and colleague that they COULD NOT do it, they took a leap of faith and committed. After seven long months of NOT closing a deal, they finally made their first wholesale. That changed their lives and gave them proof of concept and the permission to take massive action into the real estate space.

Shortly afterwards, they did three more and then soon became close to 30. To date, the brothers have flipped and wholesaled around 60+ homes. Some of their flips have been promoted by local magazines.

Their goal is to own 250+ units by February 2021. Their mission to help people build wealth through real estate investing and give their partners safe and secure returns.
