From Opioid Addict To Six Figure House Flipper and Creative Finance | Alex Kamenetsky E25
This week on The Lo-Down, we dive into the powerful journey of a Alex Kamenetsky, who went from heroin addiction and hitting rock bottom… to rebuilding his life with clarity, purpose, and action.
It wasn’t real estate that saved him—it was his brother, who stepped in when no one else could, and a rehab program in Israel that gave him a second chance. Once sober, he poured himself into learning the ins and outs of creative finance. That knowledge laid the foundation for where he is now: flipping houses, staying clean, and using his story to inspire others.
This episode is about more than real estate. It’s about redemption, second chances, and what’s possible when someone refuses to stay stuck in their past.
If you are someone who’s struggling with addiction, thinking about getting sober, or just ready for a change—this conversation is for you. You’re not alone. There’s hope, and there’s help. And no matter how far gone you feel, your story isn’t over.
