How He Built a $40 Million Real Estate Portfolio by Age 26 | Blake Rocha E413
From broke in his 20s to retiring his parents and buying a boutique hotel—this is how you build generational wealth from the ground up.
In this episode, Rich sits down with real estate investor and entrepreneur Blake Rocha, who’s built a $40M portfolio before turning 26. Blake opens up about growing up middle-class, moving back in with his parents to stack cash, and how he used Airbnb arbitrage, discipline, and relentless focus to buy his freedom.
They cover:
- How Blake scaled from $0 to $40M in real estate by his mid-20s
- Turning family into business partners and retiring his parents
- Why mindset and consistency beat motivation every time
- The real reason men lose purpose—and how to get it back
- His first boutique hotel deal in New York (and the dream that led to it)
