In this episode, we interviewed Joe Bird, a real estate agent and investor with a unique path to financial independence. Joe shares how his family's rental properties, dating back to the 1940’s, set the stage for his success and ambitions. Transitioning from music to real estate, Joe discusses the changing market dynamics and emphasizes the importance of focusing on the numbers in investment decisions. Joe's strategy centers on building a diverse, low-capital portfolio of real estate that he’ll use with his family as a source of retirement income. He also shares his plans for expanding his real estate holdings and generating legacy wealth. Tune in for Joe's entrepreneurial insights on The Real FI Podcast.
