Ep. 104 - The House Hack Queen: How One Badass Woman Built a Multi-Million Dollar Real Estate Empire From Zero

Ever wonder why people get rich in real estate while you're still on the sidelines? Terrie Schauer accidentally stumbled into property management at 19, and now she's here to spill the tea on how she turned cleaning toilets into a multi-million dollar empire.

Forget the get-rich-quick BS you see on Instagram. We're diving into the nitty-gritty of real estate investing with someone who started by managing a chaotic student co-op house (think overflowing garbage and drunk roommates) and built her way up to owning and managing thousands of units.

Here's the kicker - before you run away screaming "I can't afford real estate," Terrie's dropping truth bombs about how she got her first down payment from her dad (yeah, she admits it now) and why that's totally okay. No shame in the family money game, folks.

But this isn't just about buying properties. We're talking real strategies for turning D-level properties into cash-flowing machines, why having zero tolerance property management practices matters, and how to avoid getting screwed by crooked property managers (spoiler: she learned that one the hard way).

The best part? Terrie's breaking down why fear is just a dashboard light, not a stop sign. Whether you're scared of taking on debt, dealing with tenants, or just don't know where to start, she's got practical, no-BS advice to get you moving.
