REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT MASTERCLASS 🏗️
Discover how Katie Kim built a $100 million real estate development portfolio and learn the exact strategies she uses to structure deals with little to no money down! 💰 In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Club podcast, host Gabe Petersen sits down with developer Katie Kim to uncover the secrets of ground-up development that most investors never learn.
WHAT IS REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT?
Katie breaks down the seven stages of real estate development that every investor needs to understand. From land acquisition and land banking to building operations and repositioning existing properties, you'll learn how development isn't just about construction—it's about creating value at every stage of the real estate lifecycle. Whether you're doing fix and flips, adding operational value to rentals, or building from the ground up, you're participating in development! 🎯
CREATIVE DEAL STRUCTURING STRATEGIES 💡
Learn how Katie structures deals using what she calls "creative stacking" to help business owners expand three times their space for only one and a half times the cost. She reveals how she helped clients get into a $5.5 million development with just $50,000 down and only $1.8 million in bank debt, delivering a 353% return to investors in just four years! This isn't about risky financing—it's about strategically layering different capital sources and incentives that most investors don't even know exist.
DEVELOPER FOR FEE BUSINESS MODEL 🏢
Katie explains her unique developer-for-fee service where she helps businesses from consulting companies to restaurants to financial advisors add real estate to their wealth-building strategy without taking on massive debt. This business model allows entrepreneurs to level up their operations while building long-term wealth through property ownership. She's helped countless professionals leave their W2 jobs and launch successful development companies using this exact framework!
SECONDARY MARKETS IN TEXAS 📈
If you're looking for the next big opportunity, Katie shares why the Texas Triangle (Dallas-Houston-San Antonio-Austin) is experiencing explosive growth and where the hidden gems are located. She specifically highlights secondary and tertiary markets like Hutto, Liberty Hill, and Killeen where savvy developers can pick up land for cheap or even free using economic incentives. These communities are positioning themselves for massive growth before the major players arrive!
This episode is packed with insights for investors ready to level up beyond traditional buy-and-hold or fix-and-flip strategies. If you've ever been curious about development but thought it was too complex or required too much capital, Katie breaks down exactly how to get started and structure your first ground-up deal! 🎬

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
