From Cleaning Houses to Owning Apartment Complexes: The Matthew Teifke Story
In this inspiring episode of The Deal Scout, host Susan Reilly sits down with Matthew Teifke, a real estate entrepreneur who went from witnessing his mother clean homes as a single parent to building a multi-million-dollar real estate investment company of his own.
Matthew opens up about his early life, where he watched his mom go from housekeeper to real estate investor, buying properties one at a time with sheer grit and savings. By the time Matthew was 16, his mother owned over a dozen rental properties, all self-financed and strategically acquired in Austin, Texas.
That early exposure lit a fire in Matthew, leading him to earn his real estate license at 18. Today, he leads Teifke Real Estate and co-founded TR3 Capital, a real estate investment firm focused on acquiring large multifamily properties across Texas. Currently, he and his team are closing two major apartment deals in San Antonio, totaling over 650 units and nearly $54 million in combined value.
Matthew shares practical lessons on capital raising, syndication, building an entrepreneurial brokerage, and structuring deals for the long term. He also dives into the importance of team dynamics, trusting your instincts, and the critical role patience plays in today’s shifting market.
From managing a real estate brokerage of over 100 agents to raising millions in private capital, Matthew’s journey is rich with actionable insights for aspiring investors, syndicators, and entrepreneurs alike. He also reflects on the importance of legacy, family, and passing on not just wealth but values to the next generation.
If you’re looking to learn how real estate deals get done—from the ground up—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
