How do you go from a W-2 job to becoming a full-time real estate investor? In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke talks with Grant Francke about how he built an $8M+ real estate portfolio by focusing on conservative underwriting, strong cash flow, and the right investor mindset.
Grant shares how he overcame analysis paralysis, gained confidence in his numbers, and scaled his portfolio through small-to-mid-size multifamily properties. He breaks down what new investors often miss when evaluating deals, how to budget properly for maintenance and vacancies, and why systems and processes are essential for building a self-managing real estate business.
Whether you're working toward your first rental property or looking to scale with less stress, this episode reveals what actually separates successful real estate investors from those who never take the leap.
