What happens when a former D1 basketball player and physical therapist trades in his scrubs for a sledgehammer? You get Kyle Aho—real estate investor, small-town renovator, and baby-making machine (he’s got three kids and counting). In this episode, Kyle joins Ted and Owen to break down how he went from buying a $25K duplex in college to running a vertically integrated company with over 315 units in Northern Michigan.
Kyle shares how he and his business partner Caleb built their empire in a market of just 75,000 people by focusing on the properties nobody wanted—the hoarder houses, the condemned, the ones with literal buckets of human waste in the basement (yeah, he tells that story). Learn how they scaled with flips, built in-house crews, avoided over-leveraging early on, and created an operation that offers not just housing—but opportunity.
🟡 Golden Nugget: The biggest wins often come from buying the worst houses—because if it needs everything, every small thing you don’t need is a win.
