From pre-med student to 40-property real estate investor — without a mentor, a trust fund, or a traditional path.
In this episode, Chris sits down with Makayla Flood, a self-taught real estate investor who built a portfolio of nearly 40 rental properties across multiple markets using the BRRRR method — most with $10,000 or less left in the deal. Before real estate, Makayla was profiting $10,000/month on Amazon, used it to pay off student loans, and parlayed that capital into her first rental property. Now she runs a full construction operation with a project manager, 6–7 foremen, and crews across Ohio, Georgia, and Tampa.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- How Makayla went from pre-med to Amazon to 40 rental properties
- The exact BRRRR strategy she used to scale with minimal cash left in deals
- How she built a construction team from one crew to multiple crews across multiple states
- Why she partners with a key investor to acquire properties faster
- The challenges of managing quality across multiple markets
- Her long-term vision: transitioning from flipping to apartment complex development
This is a blueprint for anyone who thinks they need a perfect background or a mentor to build real wealth in real estate.
