Andrew Adam began his real estate journey with a modest duplex acquisition in 2012. What followed was a disciplined accumulation of rental assets, fueled by operational insight and financial rigor. After expanding to a 4-plex, he transitioned into professional property management, overseeing 260 units within a 1,000-unit firm. Today, Andrew owns and manages 23 units, advises clients as a licensed agent, and continues to acquire income-generating properties with a long-term vision of reaching 100 units. Grounded in a mission that extends beyond personal gain, his efforts support philanthropic contributions to his local zoo. This episode offers a clear-eyed look at portfolio growth, operational scale, and the mindset required to transition from owner to operator.
