To invest in real estate, you need to have a strong why. Without it, you won’t get far, and the first fumble that comes your way may be your last. That’s why having a solid reason behind your real estate investing can keep you going while the rest give up. And this is precisely what Suni Rao’s success is built on as a former pro tennis player turned financial analyst and now ten-unit real estate investor. You may think you know her story already since she was a former pro, but you’d probably be wrong. Suni was raised in a household of domestic violence. As a child, she knew that if she only had enough money, she could escape and finally be free of the abuse. So when the opportunity came for her to play pro tennis at a young age, she took the chance without ever looking back. This dream continued until her early twenties, when she was physically forced to give up her goal of winning the world’s biggest tournaments. She took a hard pivot, eventually leading her to climb the corporate ladder, only to have some crushing feedback knock her off. However, none of this stopped Suni from building the life she wanted in the background. After one property came another, and another, and another. Now, with ten units to her name, she’s making massive strides toward financial freedom and is here to tell you exactly how you can do the same.  In This Episode We Cover Financial insecurity and how to regain your freedom through real estate investing  House hacking and using it as a stepping stone to invest in bigger, better properties  Leaving the corporate ladder behind to build your own wealth without an employer  Sports lessons of resilience that any real estate investor can relate to  How to stop limiting beliefs and doubts from derailing your dreams  Why property class matters and how buying in better neighborhoods will make you more  How to “force appreciation” and gain massive equity on your properties  And So Much More!
