Does real estate investing feel like more work than it’s worth? It doesn’t have to! Today’s guest would hustle from sunrise to sundown until she had an epiphany that transformed her approach to real estate. If you want a rental portfolio that gives you financial freedom, time flexibility, and a “job” that beats your nine-to-five, she’s going to show you how!

Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Leka Devatha had what most rookie investors dream of having: multiple rental properties, a seven-figure real estate portfolio, and enough income to leave the W-2 life behind. But despite this, she found herself stretched thin and burned out. That’s when Leka made a crucial mindset shift. Rather than amassing properties, Leka started focusing on the quality of her real estate deals.

Now, she has a real estate business that virtually runs itself, allowing her to travel the world and spend more time with family. If you, like Leka, want to go from burnout to balance, this is the episode for you. With her playbook in hand, you’ll be able to analyze rental properties (the right way), streamline the tasks that bog down your business, and get a bigger return on real estate—without the nonstop hustle!
