Passive Investing
We acquire apartment complexes primarily in Texas markets with investors who want passive income, tax advantages, and long term equity growth. We also operate Midterm rentals with investors who want more cashflow and liquidity today. We do the work and also put our own capital into every deal.

Character
Where I come from, and why I care.
My grandparents raised me in Houston. My mom and dad both struggled with alcohol and addiction. My mom passed away when I was 12. My dad was in and out of jail my whole life.
I watched almost everyone I have loved struggle, and money was always part of it. My life would have been completely different if money wasn't an issue.
Money is one of the few problems in life you can get rid of forever. Once it's gone, you can focus on what actually matters: your mental health, your physical health, and the people in your life. That's why I do this.
What I strive for is to be the parent I didn't have, and to help others do the same.
Growth
My journey.
Started cold calling
I started cold calling apartment owners: "I want to know what it takes to get to where you are in life." No one in my family knew anything about real estate or business.
Reached the top 10
After calling thousands of people, I got through to two of the 10 largest apartment owners in America while still in high school.
The promise
A large Houston operator told me: "As long as you promise to teach others, I'll teach you everything I know."
Shadowed the team
Leasing, construction, accounting, attorneys, regional managers. I found deals, he put in the money. Most were 30–50% full; we sold them at 70–90% full. About 1000 units bought, sold, and managed.
Studied the best
When he started retiring, I studied 120 private equity groups to learn how the best pick deals, raise money, and run operations.
Where I am now
Where I'm going: helping as many people as possible make money not a problem. My story, my passion, and my skills all line up.
DEALS AND NETWORK
I know how the best look at them.
Finding good deals is all about patterns. Is this business plan realistic in this area? Look for proof. Don't reinvent the wheel. Ask what is the upside and the downside? How confident are we in executing this? How much time and effort does it take to do?
Learn to ask for help. You can't do everything alone. You will run out of money; you will run into problems that you don't know how to solve. So have the network that has what you don't have be stronger together.
INCENTIVES ALIGNED
We only win when you do.
I invest too. Every deal we ask someone to put money into, my family and I put money into as well. If anyone gets hurt, I want it to be me who gets hurt the worst.
I don't get paid if you don't get paid. My money, my family's money, and my name are in every deal. I need this to work, not just want it.
What I borrow
Who I do deals with.
What I borrow is failures I haven't made, from my network, and the track record of the people I surround myself with. I make sure I don't do anything alone. I only go into things when I have people with 10+ years of success in that specific area supporting me.
I partner with groups that have been together for 10+ yrs, 15+ full cycle deals, hundreds of millions of dollars brokered, bought, sold, and invested into.
How it works
Why furnished midterms and multifamily.
One grows your income today. The other shelters it for tomorrow. Together, money stops being a problem.
Furnished midterms grow your income
The best opportunity I've found to scale your income — nothing I've found has a better risk-adjusted return. Cash flow today, so money stops being a problem.
Then you get blessed with a tax problem
More money coming in means more taxes. A good problem to have — but still a problem to solve.
Multifamily helps solve it
Multifamily is a strong tax shelter. Its paper losses (depreciation) can often offset passive income — like the cash flow from furnished midterms.
Why me in these industries
My network and experience give me an edge most people don't have: special deals, strong relationships, knowing the ins and outs, and a lot of data.
Taxes are different for everyone. Talk to your CPA before you invest for tax reasons.
