Could rentals help YOU achieve financial independence and even retire early? That’s the goal for today’s guest, who, despite growing up with very little, is now building wealth with real estate. In just three years, she has already scaled to 10 properties…and counting!

Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! After discovering the FIRE movement (financial independence, retire early), Lindsay Barrientos decided that real estate investing would be the lifeline from her high-stress W2 job. In just three years, this healthcare professional has already scaled her real estate portfolio to 10 rentals and is on track to leave her job in the coming years—all thanks to a combination of hard work, out-of-state investing, and creative financing. These “home run” deals include a $135,000 property that cash flows over $500 a month and a $79,000 property that recently appraised for over $150,000!

In this episode, Lindsay will share the strategies that helped her find high-cash-flow, off-market deals beyond her backyard. Along the way, you’ll learn how to build your network, scale faster through the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat), and unlock seller finance deals that allow you to put low money down on investment properties!
