Description

In this episode, we sit down with Dave Janis, a former top-producing real estate agent who walked away from 85 deals a year and a million-dollar GCI to chase something bigger: building homes from the ground up.

Dave shares how he pivoted from cold calls and burnout to managing multiple $3.5M new build projects in Boulder, Colorado — while building a flipping and wholesaling machine that funds it all.

We talk about the mindset shift that sparked the leap, how he built a rockstar team in just 8 weeks, and why he now makes as much on some flips as he does on custom homes.

This is a raw and inspiring look at what happens when you stop waiting for "someday" and start building the life—and business—you actually want.
