Between his career and a podcasting side hustle, Robert Leonard's a busy guy. So how does he—and how can you—build a small but mighty rental portfolio in your spare time? For Robert, it comes down to 4 major elements: 1. Use a series of house hacks to lower expenses and build equity. 2. Find an MVP real estate agent. 3. Align with a partner. 4. Invest out-of-state. In this episode, Robert goes into detail on each of the above and explains how they helped him break through "analysis paralysis" in his early 20s. If you pick just one of these strategies and do it well, you'll be way ahead of the game. When you combine several, you're on your way to financial freedom.
