In this episode, Jimmy digs into one of the biggest decisions real estate investors face: Should you go big with syndications or build steady with single-family rentals? Jimmy doesn’t preach a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, he guides listeners through how to evaluate the right strategy based on personal goals, timing, and risk tolerance. Using his wealth pyramid as a roadmap, he explains how to create value, boost productivity, and build a strategy that aligns with where you are—and where you want to go. Listeners will walk away with a clear understanding of: The real tradeoffs between syndications and single-family rentals What “preferred return” and “waterfall structure” actually mean How to use IRR (Internal Rate of Return) to evaluate deals The four foundational pillars of successful real estate investing Jimmy also walks through his producer framework, outlining the phases of wealth-building—from skill-building in the early days to achieving passive income and long-term financial leverage. This episode is for you if you’re trying to map out a real estate strategy that fits your life—not someone else’s.
