🎥 DESCRIPTION
What if you could start with just a few real estate deals and scale all the way to owning boutique hotels—without putting your own cash upfront? That’s exactly what Blake Dailey did! In this episode, Cam and I sit down with Blake to break down the creative financing strategies he used to go from house hacking with a VA loan to acquiring properties through seller financing, private money partnerships, and off-market deals.
If you’ve ever wanted to find hidden real estate deals, buy properties with little to no upfront cash, or scale from Airbnb to boutique hotels, this episode is packed with real, actionable advice you won’t want to miss!
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
• How Blake used a VA loan, private money, and seller financing to start investing with $0 out of pocket
• The off-market strategies he used to find INSANE real estate deals
• Why boutique hotels might be a better investment than Airbnbs
• How to scale from small rentals to larger commercial properties
• The biggest mistakes investors make when trying to grow fast
• And so much more!
