Here's the key: Be consistent and reinvest.
When my husband and I started, we had regular jobs and saved diligently for our first down payment. Many people make the mistake of stopping those saving habits once they buy their first property. You need to continue saving while reinvesting everything your property earns into more real estate.
We’ve never spent a single dollar of our real estate income on personal expenses—it all goes back into building our portfolio. This disciplined approach allowed us to grow a substantial real estate portfolio in under a decade. Real estate is a marathon, not a sprint. Focus on long-term gains and reinvest consistently.
