Episode #317

Growing a real estate business with multiple rentals and HUGE cash flow…in just two years!? How do you get so many deals done in such little time? Simply by putting one foot in front of the other, today’s guest was able to create a sizable portfolio in no time—allowing her husband to quit his job in the process!

Welcome back to the “Real Estate Rookie” podcast! Today, we’re chatting with Mackenzie Brogdon, a wife, mother, realtor, and investor who managed to lock up seven deals in just two years—with more in the works! With a general contractor for a father and a background in interior design, Mackenzie was bound for a career in real estate. But that didn’t make getting started any less intimidating. With concerns about house hacking as a new parent, she could have easily hit the “pause” button. Instead, she plunged headfirst into her first deal—one that, despite having its fair share of headaches, opened the door for many more deals to come.

Whether you’re a “nervous Nellie” or an “eager beaver,” this episode will teach you the importance of taking wise, deliberate action on your real estate journey. Join Mackenzie, Ashley, and Tony as they cover a variety of investing strategies—from house hacking and flipping to arbitrage and subject to deals. They also talk about why every investor should document their journey and how to find the perfect investing partner to complement your strengths!
