Welcome back to another episode of the podcast. Today, we are diving into our best tips and tricks when it comes to ditching your full-time W2 and becoming a full-time real estate investor. At WIIRE, that is our ultimate goal: to give you a choice to become W2 optional, and we’re diving into our personal situations when we left behind our full-time jobs and things to think about when making this big, life-changing decision.

You may not want to quit your W2, and that’s totally okay! We hear this a lot: some people genuinely love their job, but we want to help equip you with the tools to make this choice so you can live your dream life, whatever that looks like for you!

Thanks for listening, we’ll catch you next time!

Happy 2025, WIIRE listeners! We are so thrilled to have you back because while we gave you a recap on our 2024 goals in our last episode, this week we’re talking all about our 2025 goals: personally, professionally, and our goals for WIIRE! If you have never written your goals down before, we encourage you to take a few minutes, put pen to paper, and jot them down. It is truly amazing the impact writing down something can have. Then, put those goals somewhere you will see them, every single day to keep you accountable.

We both struggle with goal setting and we’re pretty proud of our accomplishments in 2024 and truly excited to see what 2025 has in store. A few items we mention in this episode are:

• WIIRE Community
• CEO Bootcamp Relaunch
• WIIRE Retreat Waitlist
• Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts

Hey friends, welcome back! It’s been a while since we talked bout the BRRRR method, and if that’s your jam, you’re in luck because today we are joined by our friend (and WIIRE Cohort leader!), Maria Koch. In this episode, Maria talks about flipping and the BRRRR strategy, tactical insights on her REI business that you can implement, and shares her incredible story, which we know will leave you feeling inspired!

Maria started investing in 2020 and is based in Kansas City, Missouri. She has a rental portfolio of 10 doors but has done more deals, and her husband is a general contractor - so she gets to see the action from both sides. With more than 20 BRRRRs and flips under her belt, Maria shares how being an agent has helped her sell her own deals and get the best bang for her buck, even in the toughest market.
