We have a multi-family investor, syndicator, and entrepreneur sharing the gist of his 15-year career in real estate. He managed large operational budgets, led operations in enterprise IT, and eventually founded Realty Dynamics.
Our guest lived quite a different life before making this career shift. Breaking out of the corporate matrix and re-engineering your life takes a lot of willpower and commitment. Agostino Pintus gives us nuggets of advice on how the 40-hour workweek may be keeping people from living to their fullest.
He tells us how he escaped the cycle of dreading Mondays and praying for Fridays to come. Listen in to find out how he continued his pursuit of financial freedom and overcame the problems with this journey.
Key Takeaways:
[1:32] Agostino, who is of Italian descent,
dedicated his career to the corporate tech industry, and
eventually, out of his realizations, he transitioned to real
estate.
[5:43] He had already started on single-family houses but stopped due to life circumstances. All the while, he noticed his real estate portfolio was still giving him returns, so he committed to pursuing investing in multi-family properties while trying to secure another job.
[10:02] He gradually built his real estate businesses in partnership with developers and now has his fourth business that gives aid to single-families in getting their homes.
[14:27] Agostino trained as if his life depended on it. He acquired skills in deal-making and getting sharp on how to raise money.
[20:13] He likens his real estate career to his aspiration to become a pilot. He developed a healthy obsession for both to pre-master the craft before executing it.
[23:31] He discusses the midwest markets and how every need has a deal. He also elaborates on making solid partnerships. He highlights how minor things will tell you what kind of people they are.
[32:30] There are lots of different kinds of plans in real estate. Agostino encourages focusing on one and committing to it 100% to get out of toxic cycles.
[41:28] Agostino believes that the primary education one experiences limit the capabilities and opportunities one can get. That is why it is essential to observe the bigger picture of one's career and life in general.
