44: How to Make Millions in Real Estate (feat. Todd Baldwin)

Todd Baldwin is a full-time real estate investor who became viral in February of 2020 after CNBC produced a 10 minute special via their "Make it" series. Todd and his wife Angela, have created systems to reduce monthly expenses and maximize profits, most notably through renting his real estate investments by the room instead of more traditionally, by the unit. Todd first hit my radar via the WAREI Facebook group, founded by previous guest, Janot Wanot (episode 34), where he consistently drops nuggets of real estate investing wisdom.     Todd's CNBC Feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb3Z5cGOksY [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb3Z5cGOksY] Todd's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toddjbaldwin/ [https://www.instagram.com/toddjbaldwin/] Todd's latest project: https://millennial.investments/ [https://millennial.investments/] Gunnar Conley (@realtorgunnar) [https://www.instagram.com/realtorgunnar/]is a Seattle Real Estate agent focused on creating change through small actions.  Timmy Regan is a Bend, OR Commercial Real Estate Analyst licensed in both Washington and Oregon.      What We Discuss: * How Todd scaled his real estate business * Secret Shopping (and why it's such a great idea for saving money) * The importance of discomfort when building wealth * Todd's appearance on CNBC make it * Follow us on Social! * Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/realtorgunnar/] * Twitter [https://twitter.com/CompoundChange] * Youtube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTtskcu3n5-HFivN7vt0XrA] Like this show?
