How do you build a real estate portfolio when you already have a busy career that takes up most of your time? Former NFL star, Devon Kennard, can tell you exactly what it takes to do that. Devon played for the New York Giants and the Detroit Lions before he signed with the Arizona Cardinals. As a pro football player, he knew his career wouldn’t last forever so he carved out just five hours a week to work on his real estate side hustle and turn it into a cash-flowing portfolio that would maintain his lifestyle after football. In today’s episode, you’ll hear the kind of discipline and dedication it took to put his plan into action, how he’s created financial stability with four passive-income investing strategies, the mindset he needed to turn a side-hustle into a financial game plan, and how his efforts have turned out for him and his family. He’s also passionate about sharing what he’s learned and has written two books to help other people find financial freedom – “It All Adds Up: Designing Your Game Plan for Success” and his newly released “Real Estate Side Hustle: Four Passive Investing Strategies to Build Wealth Beyond Your Day Job.” And he says you don’t need a football player’s paycheck to do what he has done. You can also learn how to strategically build a self-managing business that’s profitable by reading our new book, “Scaling Smart.” My husband Rich and I co-authored the book, which just went on sale September 10th. Bigger Pockets asked us to write it based on our decades of combined experience with our real estate investing company RealWealth. You’ll find “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business” on Amazon or click on the link in the show notes below!
