In his own words

It's Cheaper to Buy TWO Houses in Long Beach than One

"If you can't afford to buy one house, buy two." The median single-family home in Long Beach has climbed past $1,050,000 — but the problem isn't that you can't afford real estate here, it's that you're looking at the wrong property type.

Three entry points

Wherever you're starting, there's a path in.

01
Condo as your entry point

Building equity now instead of paying someone else's mortgage.

02
Single-family with ADU potential

Room to add rental income or long-term investment value from day one.

03
2-4 units, "house hacking"

Live in one unit, let tenants help cover the mortgage.
