This week, we have a repeat guest! Michael Ketchen (episode #3), joins the show to discuss how he built a $35M+ multifamily portfolio, very quickly, by leveraging the BRRRR strategy. Mike is a former teacher with an incredible story… he, his partner Matt, and his wife Hannah are a true representation of the American Dream. In this episode, we discuss creating value through operations, buying great multifamily deals, and buying luxury Airbnbs.
