Justin and I discuss how he leveraged a 3-person partnership to build a portfolio of single-family rental homes. We talk about early challenges they had to overcome and what the future looks like for their real estate investments.

Justin is a native Houstonian and an Aggie Petroleum engineer with 10 years’ experience working in the USA and abroad. Justin joined BG Group, a British O&G company, after graduating from Texas A&M and worked as a petroleum engineer in various roles in Egypt, the UK, Bolivia and Dallas. After Shell announced the BG Group acquisition, Justin transferred to Brisbane, Australia in 2015 to help develop a large coalbed methane field in Queensland with QGC. Justin returned back to Texas in 2018 to pursue his MBA at The University of Texas McCombs School of Business. After graduating, he joined Accenture Strategy as a Senior Strategy Consultant. 

Justin started to invest in real estate in 2011 when he and his two roommates started BCS Legacy Properties and bought their first rental property in College Station, Texas. They have continued to grow their business over the years and now own 13 rental properties in Texas which are passively returning income. Justin enjoys sharing his experience and network to help others succeed however he can. Apart from real estate, Justin loves to travel, cook, snowboard, scuba dive and invest.

Lucas and I discuss overcoming the initial fear to get started in real estate and how cash-flowing real estate will weather the coming downturn better than any other asset class.

Lucas Miller is a full-time entrepreneur, investor, and father passionate about helping others find financial freedom. His goal is to create passive investment opportunities that allow investors to reach their retirement goals sooner than they ever imagined.

Lucas purchased his first multifamily building in 2015 and has since been committed to conservative underwriting, exhaustive due diligence, and being a trustworthy steward of investor capital.

Lucas also runs a podcast and YouTube channel called Fear Free Passive Investing, which aims to help new investors get started passively investing into commercial real estate.

This episode is where the rubber meets the road, do not miss it. I discuss my six-question framework that has proven time and again to help new investors get unstuck from analysis paralysis and start making progress on their journey to financial freedom. Action is the remedy. Movement leaves fear in its wake. By the end of this episode you will have clarity on how and where to get your journey started.

Investing passively in multifamily real estate can seem daunting at first. I walk listeners through my process of how I found the right team to trust with my passive investments, and I discuss the secret sauce that sets them apart from their competition. I also talk about how I transitioned from passive multifamily investing to a more active role as a General Partner in deals.

In this episode I discuss how I found a way for busy professionals to invest in large multifamily buildings managed by experienced teams without investing a large amount of time or effort. For many busy professionals, time is our most precious commodity and many times there are not enough hours left in the day to build a real estate portfolio from the ground up. However; this doesn’t have to keep us from taking advantage of all the benefits real estate investing has to offer. This episode contains an incredible solution to this problem.

Deciding real estate is the best method to smooth out the volatility of our industry is the easy part. The challenge lies in deciding how and where to get started. In this episode, I talk about how I overcame this first major roadblock and was able to get my first investment property. I also talk about the realization that single-family investing wasn’t going to scale to meet my goals. I found a solution to this problem as well, but at first this solution just felt like another roadblock!

How my fiancé's dark humor led to a discovery that would eventually change the trajectory of our lives. In 2015 I was out of work, almost out of money, and I was seriously wondering if I’d ever get another paycheck from the oil and gas industry. I moved half-way across the country on three days’ notice and lived alone in a one-bedroom apartment in west Texas just to stay in the oil industry. The only piece of mail that I received in 6 months was an invitation to my own wedding with a note that read “Hope you can make it!”

This isn’t about real estate. This is about overcoming the problem we all face as oil and gas professionals. I discuss “The Oilman’s Prayer” and how generations of O&G professionals have simply rolled with the punches instead of taking an active stand against the volatility of our industry. We’ll get into my background and what I hope to accomplish with Rigs to Real Estate.
