Collecting Keys - Real Estate Investing Podcast EP 74 - From Smoking Crack to Stacking Doors with Rob Rowsell
What did you think of todays show??
Rob Rowsell lived in a state of addiction and homelessness for 10 years, using meth and crack cocaine, and committing his fair share of crimes. Fast forward a few years where he had completed rehab, achieved sobriety, bought a business, and entered the real estate market.
Rob, with his wife and partner, ventured into and succeeded in the tough world of real estate during years of great recession, also earning multiple awards for their accomplishments. On today’s episode of Collecting Keys Podcast, Rob is sharing his story of personal and professional growth.
By reading Retire Young Retire Rich by Robert Kiyosaki and taking courses by Carleton H. Sheets, Rob invested in his future to learn about wholesale business, probate, how to flip houses, and lots more. He was able to channel the go-getter, can’t-stop attitude of his addiction into his real estate career, proving that anyone can do the same.
