17 years as a corporate employee with two young children. Today, I'm a millionaire because of rental properties.I'm walking you through the exact steps I took to make that shift in just a few years. I didn't come from money, and I didn't have any family background in this, I had to learn every lesson the hard way. This is the real, honest picture of what that shift looks like, and whether it was actually worth it.My husband and I went from two exhausted corporate professionals to building a rental portfolio together. I get honest about the real numbers behind why we quit, the business ideas we tried and rejected before landing on real estate, and the mistake I made buying real estate at the wrong time. I also break down the supercharged version of the BRRRR strategy we built our portfolio on, and the four levels of real estate investing. If you've ever done the math on your own paycheck and felt like something didn't add up, this one's for you.0:00 – Intro: 17 years an engineer, now a millionaire01:07 – The six-figure trap: what I was really taking home02:20 – Why we started looking for a way out02:31 – Business ideas we tried (and why they didn't work)05:16 – The real estate mistake I made before 200806:49 – How rental properties changed the math10:20 – The strategy we built our portfolio on13:24 – The 4 Levels of investing 13:02 – Life after quitting corporate16:55 – My advice if you're starting this journey___________Resources:- Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K- Book a Call - http://www.openspacesacademy.com/bookacall?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Exact 5-day Blueprint One Property Away Challenge - http://onepropertyawaychallenge.com?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1- Join Our Tuesday Live Call: https://openspacesacademy.com/live?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1Connect with Palak and Niti• Website: https://www.openspacesacademy.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name• YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_namehttps://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_nameDisclaimer: This video is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.

10 properties. A $3.1 million portfolio. A $1.21 million flip. Apoorva spent years stuck in analysis paralysis before she ever bought a property, now she's built all of this and she's still adding to it.This episode isn't just about the numbers. Apoorva talks about who she became through this process, from a corporate mindset to a business owner's mindset, why her first house looked nothing like a "smart investment" on paper, and what it took to expand into three markets and multiple businesses at once. She also gets honest about the fear that almost kept her from investing out of state, and what pushed her past it.If fear of the unknown has kept you on the sidelines, this conversation might be the push you need.1:28 – Meet Apoorva: Corporate Mom to Investor3:16 – 8 Years of Analysis Paralysis3:57 – The Decision That Changed Everything5:24 – $3.1M Portfolio, 10 Rentals5:34 – The Flip That Sold for $1.2M5:52 – Her First BRRRR: The "I Dream of Jeannie" House7:13 – How She's Changed: Corporate vs. Business Owner10:15 – Top 3 Lessons From the Program14:11 – $300K Equity on Her Primary Home16:08 – Expanding to 3 Markets19:28 – Fear of Out-of-State Investing & Construction32:07 – Self-Made Millionaire Moment38:06 – Advice for Women Who Wait for PermissionResources:- Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K- Book a Call - http://www.openspacesacademy.com/bookacall?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Exact 5-day Blueprint One Property Away Challenge - http://onepropertyawaychallenge.com- Join Our Tuesday Live Call: https://openspacesacademy.com/live?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1Connect with Palak and Niti• Website: https://www.openspacesacademy.com/• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/ https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspacesacademy• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/• YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademyhttps://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademyDisclaimer: This video is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.

She agreed to buy a $230,000 property she had never set foot in. Sent contractors to walk it in her place, ran the numbers from her kitchen table, and signed. Six months later: a projected $115,000 to $165,000 in profit. Her first deal. Ever.Shelly didn't grow up around money, or real estate. She grew up watching her mother give thirty years to the same company. When her mother died, the company's entire response was one flower arrangement.Years later, Shelly gave that same company her own thirty years. Director of Business Development, a billion-dollar sales quota, and a body that started breaking down under the weight of it. Two spinal surgeries and a reorg later, the company made the decision she'd been avoiding.Palak sits down with Shelly to break down the real numbers behind that first deal, exactly how she moved that fast with zero real estate experience, and why she wasn't going to let a company write the ending to her story too.01:05 – Meet Shelly02:16 – Her body breaking down02:46 – Back surgery complications08:40 – Breaking down the triplex numbers15:40 – Advice for information overload16:02 – The power of community and mentors19:20 – Bringing her kids into the journey20:16 – Her mom's $28K raise22:40 – Building her team from scratch24:17 – The legacy she's building30:59 – Her 5-year vision31:34 – Advice for anyone on the fence___________Resources:- Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K- Book a Call - http://www.openspacesacademy.com/bookacall?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Exact 5-day Blueprint One Property Away Challenge - http://onepropertyawaychallenge.com- Join Our Tuesday Live Call: https://openspacesacademy.com/live?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1Connect with Palak and Niti• Website: https://www.openspacesacademy.com/• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/ https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspacesacademy• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/• YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademyhttps://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademyDisclaimer: This video is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.
