How a Simple Mindset Shift Took Sean Hallahan From Rentals to 6-Figure Flips

In this episode, we sit down with Sean Hallahan, co-founder of Clover Real Estate, to unpack the mindset shift that took him from analyzing rental deals with his brother to walking away from his W-2 and flipping houses for six-figure profits.

Sean started like a lot of people—consuming BiggerPockets, reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, and buying a few rental properties in Connecticut while holding down a full-time engineering job in L.A. But after hitting a ceiling, Sean realized that long-term wealth wasn’t just about passive income—it was about building a real business.

We dive into:
– How Sean and his brother got their first few rentals
– The exact moment Sean knew it was time to quit his W-2
– Why “getting reps” in sales changed everything
– The $100K flip that made it all feel real
– His game plan to hit $300K in profit this year
– The biggest constraint they’re solving now

Whether you're still working a day job or already deep into real estate, Sean's story is a masterclass in betting on yourself, pushing through failure, and building something that actually works.
