From First Condo to Cashflow: Jessie’s Real Estate Story

What if your journey to financial freedom began with a Craigslist roommate and a condo covered in shag carpet?     In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jessie Lang, a woman who accidentally found her way into real estate and went on to build a thriving investment business. Jessie didn’t come from wealth and didn’t have a roadmap. But she took one intentional step at a time, starting with renting out a spare room, and that small move sparked everything.     We talk about how she walked away from her W-2 job with no backup plan, built a portfolio of 75 rental doors, and now empowers others to build wealth through real estate. Jessie’s story is honest, inspiring, and a powerful reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. You just need to take that first step.     00:00 How Jessie “accidentally” became a landlord 05:00 Childhood lessons & early money mindset 10:00 Buying her first property with $3K in savings 15:00 House hacking + quitting her job with no plan 20:00 From wholesaling to long-term rentals 25:00 Learning the BRRRR method & building systems 30:00 Managing properties + walking away from bad deals     💼 Be the Boss of Your Own Money.
