On the surface, you can say that Brian Tibbs was able to retire from his job as a missionary, where he and his wife Jill averaged making $9.20/hour over the course of 16 years. However, it was due to his investing in real estate before that time that helped him build the momentum over those 16 years overseas to make it possible. In a 3 year period, he got married, quit his job, sold 60% of his real estate and moved to Guatemala with his wife. During their time away, they built a team of 380 leaders that planted 96 churches in 11 countries, and raised over $20 Million for their cause. With their limited income, Brian developed the HACKER method, which allowed him to build his multi-million net worth with an extremely limited income, and is focused on helping others do the same.

This week, we’re revisiting another standout episode from our Best Of series, featuring guest Ryan Chaw.

Ryan Chaw is a pharmacist turned real estate investor. By investing in 15 properties while working his full-time job, in August 2023 he was able to replace his pharmacist salary and walk away from his job to pursue real estate investing full-time. Growing up, Ryan saw the power of real estate investing from his Grandpa, who was able to acquire rentals and was able to pay for Ryan's college tuition. Wanting to follow in his footsteps, Ryan set out to acquire 1 property per year and utility the rent by the room model. With properties now spanning 3 states, Ryan is able to double or triple traditional rental income in competitive markets with his co-living & student housing model.

This week, we’re revisiting a standout episode from our Best Of series, featuring guests Jenn and Joe Delle Fave.

Jenn started out as a middle school English teacher while Joe was stuck working at a car dealership in Upstate New York. Over time, they slowly started chipping away at their real estate goals through the use of creative financing and the rent to own strategy. What started out as a 1 month long trip to Florida turned into them taking 45 days to pack up their lives in New York, sell their primary residence and permanently move down to Florida, where they now homeschool their 2 kids while pursuing their real estate goals in warmer weather. As host of the Creative Finance Playbook Podcast, they help others use creative financing methods to help them achieve their real estate goals by buying rental properties without banks.
