Description

You don’t need a huge inheritance or nest egg to start investing in real estate. Just ask Cody Caswell, who landed his first deal at sixteen years old with only $5,000. This property gave him instant cash flow, but more importantly, it gave him a launchpad to develop his skills, find better deals, and scale from mobile homes to multifamily!

Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Cody started small, but today, he flips fifteen houses per year, owns a fifty-six-unit apartment complex, and even runs an interior design business—all before the age of thirty. The secret to his seven-figure success? He spent most of his twenties dabbling in virtually every investing strategy until he found the one that aligned with his strengths and interests. The best part? His approach is relatively low-risk and highly repeatable!

In this episode, Cody will share the best entry points for buy and hold investing, the BRRRR method, and flipping houses. Whether you’re brand-new to the world of real estate or you’re ready to pull the trigger on your first property, tune in to hear about his real estate journey, some critical mistakes to avoid, and what makes a “good” deal!
