The Moonlight Real Estate Side Hustles and Syndications Show
We show working professionals and busy people how to invest in real estate as a side hustle or a full-time business. We interview guests who have successfully started real estate businesses part-time and have turned them into full-time enterprises, or have generated passive income for themselves. This show will also demonstrate how to invest in real estate with low or no money. You will learn how to achieve success in various niches within real estate, including wholesaling, fix and flip, BRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance), and syndicating commercial real estate.
