In this episode of the Rent To Retirement Podcast, hosts Adam Schroeder and Zach Lemaster sit down with Saheed, an investor who went from being an "accidental landlord" to confidently purchasing out-of-state real estate for long-term wealth. Saheed shares how he transitioned from local property ownership in Pennsylvania to buying turnkey new construction rentals in South Carolina through Rent To Retirement’s Academy.
