//Key Lessons

  1. Think in buckets, not just bank accounts: Diversify your investments into three key buckets—direct income, defensive assets, and cash-flowing real estate. It’s like giving your money multiple lives!
  2. Make your money work as hard as you do: Your job funds your lifestyle, but let cash-flowing investments cover your living expenses. This way, your salary becomes extra ammo for wealth-building.
  3. Real estate isn’t just for the ultra-wealthy: Start diversifying with rental properties, commercial spaces, or even self-storage units. You don’t need millions—just strategic moves.
  4. Understand liquidity, but don’t fear it: Real estate may not be as liquid as stocks, but it offers passive income without selling the asset. Think of it as the best of both worlds.


// Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

I spent 12 years as a data scientist at HP and purchased $5M worth of real estate over 15 years using my own money. Now, I'm partnering with busy professionals to diversify their investments and generate passive income through real estate syndications and short-term flips—without dealing with tenants, toilets, or tantrums.

At Furlo Capital, we believe real estate isn't just a transaction; it's a partnership. Our value-add approach creates win-win situations where residents thrive, and investors build wealth. We're not just in this to make money—we want to make a difference.

If you're ready to diversify from stock market volatility and want reliable, steady returns, let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.
