REMOTE Wholesaling $350k yr Net, 36 deals, From 5 Hours a Day w/ Brett Iwanowicz

Maybe you're trying to make your first 100K or 300K as an investor. Or maybe you're already crushing it but contemplating whether you should keep scaling your business. In this honest conversation with Brett, who has been in real estate for 15 years, we take a look at the business model, the lead generation, the team structure, and the vision and motivations that allow him to run a highly profitable business (36 deals in 2024) that's fulfilling & meaningful.

What if the key to a thriving real estate business isn't rapid scaling, but intentional relationships and a clear vision? Brett Iwanowicz, operating remotely from Guatemala, shares how he built a lean team executing 30–40 deals annually, netting over $400K last year. By emphasizing trust and long-term connections—like a seller returning after a year because Brett was the only one who truly listened—he's crafted a sustainable model. Dive into his strategies on team structure, marketing channels like SEO and direct mail, and the profound impact of aligning business with personal mission. Discover how focusing on the "art of the deal" and serving others can lead to consistent success. Subscribe now to learn how purpose-driven investing can transform your business.
