🎥 DESCRIPTION
Chad Schieler shares how he went from spending nearly two decades in sales to building a 500+ unit real estate portfolio in just a few years. He breaks down how he raised nearly $10 million without a podcast or social media following, and why self-funding his first deals gave him the confidence to scale. It’s a powerful look at grit, systems, and the mindset needed to go big in multifamily real estate.
In this episode, we also talk about:
• Built 500+ units in just 4 years
• Raised $10M with zero social media presence
• Focused on B-class properties in Midwest markets
• Uses monthly emails and gifts to nurture investors
• and SO much more
