BiggerPockets Podcast 482: Full-Time Fireman Does 300 Deals While Working 40 Hours/Week

Building a rental portfolio is hard work, and many investors think they need to quit their jobs and go straight into real estate after only a couple of smooth deals. Mike Webb, firefighter, investor, flipper, and wholesaler argues the opposite.

In a world where it seems cool for everyone to quit their job, Mike reassures those who like their work that it’s worth staying, especially to keep that investment money flowing. He also walks through his partnerships, how he hires his team members, and what you can do to systematize your business so you can outsource your work as you take on more strategic roles!

He is still working as a full-time firefighter, but is building his portfolio and completing 20-30 flips per year while he does so. This gives Mike the ultimate freedom to do whatever is best for him and his family, even though he loves his job.
