Why Healthcare Workers Are Fleeing to Real Estate


Listen Later

Savannah Arroyo spent 10 years as a registered nurse—working 12-hour shifts, managing hospital departments, grinding toward a CNO position. She had two babies within two years, went back to work when they were three months old, and experienced full-blown panic attacks from being away from her kids.

Now she’s a full-time real estate operator focused on multifamily syndications and assisted living facilities—working 10 hours per week while her husband does the same. They’re both 35. They’re raising capital. They’re building legacy wealth.

This conversation isn’t about “passive income tips.” It’s about the actual mechanics of leaving a high-paying W-2 behind.

What We Cover:

• Why Savannah pulled $80K from her home equity to buy two turnkey rentals in Georgia (and flipped them 18 months later for $160K in profit)
• How she raised $350K for her first 12-unit apartment complex by sending 35 emails to friends and family
• The nursing skills that directly transfer to real estate: time management, delegation, risk assessment
• Why “modern investors” attach businesses to real estate instead of just collecting mailbox money
• How she evaluates deals today (15-20% average annualized returns for her investors)
• The Matt Faircloth story that changed how she thought about protecting investor capital
• Why assisted living facilities are the next major play—and how her clinical background gives her an unfair advantage
• What it actually takes to go from force to flow (the book that shifted her entire business model)

The Real Talk:

Savannah breaks down imposter syndrome, what happens when 10 lenders tell you no, and why being a woman in a male-dominated space became her competitive advantage. She also shares what “broke” looks like when you’re still successful (spoiler: it’s Panera, not Taco Bell).

If you’re a healthcare professional burned out from your job, a high W-2 earner looking for tax advantages, or someone who’s tired of building someone else’s dream—this episode will show you the actual path out.
