How a Father-Son Duo Scaled a Real Estate Business Together

Episode Summary

In this episode of Groundbreakers, we’re joined by Jarom and Justin Pratt, the father-son duo behind EagleCap Legacy Wealth Partners. Their story starts in high school, where Jarom was flipping houses before he could vote—backed by his dad as the first investor. What began as a side hustle turned into a full-time partnership focused on multifamily real estate, legacy building, and investor trust.

They open up about the lessons they learned from early flips, the challenges of managing construction-heavy value-add deals, and how their complementary skill sets—Jarom in acquisitions and operations, Justin in capital raising—give them an edge.

Key Points Discussed

• Starting Young: Jarom’s real estate journey began at 16, flipping distressed homes while learning construction hands-on.
• Trust and Teamwork: Justin shares how he decided to back his son financially and emotionally, leading to a powerful business partnership.
• The First Syndication: Their first deal was a distressed 17-unit property. They break down how they raised capital, structured the deal, and got it over the finish line.
• Why They’re Betting on Legacy: EagleCap isn’t just about returns. It’s about building generational wealth and helping other families do the same.
