Flipping Boredom into Billions: Jim Manning’s Real Estate Journey | Jake & Gino Podcast

Real estate investing isn't just about flipping houses—it’s about flipping lives. In this episode of the Jake & Gino Podcast, we sit down with Jim Manning, CEO and Co-Founder of Three Doors and host of the Passive Wealth Show, to uncover his journey from corporate burnout to financial freedom.

In this episode, we dive into:

• How Jim transitioned from reinsurance to real estate
• Flipping 3,500+ properties and managing a $50M portfolio
• Using private capital to scale a real estate empire
• The importance of mission-driven investing for long-term wealth
• Balancing impact and profit in real estate
