"22 Years, One Marriage, and a Lot of Rentals" w/ Tim and Nicole Swierczek
Nicole Swierczek (Tim's Wife) joins us for a candid look back at 22 years of real estate investing alongside her husband Tim. What started with a smart home sale and a used car lot paycheck slowly turned into a true mom-and-pop rental portfolio—built one property, one repair, and one late-night tenant call at a time. Nicole, who currently manages the day to day of the portfolio, shares how they weathered the chaos of landlording, the pressure of growing a family business, and the reality that things rarely go according to plan.
This episode is about more than just real estate—it’s about partnership, persistence, and playing the long game. Nicole opens up about what kept them going, what she wishes they’d done differently, and why it still feels worth it despite all the hard years. If you’ve ever felt like you’re behind, overwhelmed, or unsure if it’s all worth it, this one’s for you.
