He started as a union carpenter. Then made a decision most people never make — he went back to school at USC for corporate finance while working full time to pay for it.

He graduated, retired from the union, became a banker, and never stopped building.

From the Jobsite to the Boardroom

Danny was a general contractor at 21, moved into heavy construction as a union carpenter, then earned a corporate finance degree from USC while working full time to pay for it. Every career move was intentional. Every skill he built was preparation for the next level.

---

His First Deal and 15 Years of 1031 Exchanges

Danny saved $65,000 and bought a fourplex in California. A year and a half later he sold it for a $100,000 profit. He rolled that into a 1031 exchange and kept buying bigger buildings for the next 15 years using his own money.

He also built a property management company in 2006 and sold it years later. By the time he discovered syndication in 2018 he already had the construction, finance, and operations skills most syndicators spend years trying to develop.

---

How He Transitioned From W2 to Full Time Real Estate

Danny's rule was simple — you have to work two jobs before you can quit one.

Evenings. Weekends. Stolen phone calls during the day. If you are married, cut expenses and learn to live on one income. Cut car payments, eating out, everything. Run lean until the business is big enough to jump to full time.

It gets hard before it gets easier. But if you plan it right the jump is possible.

Why He Started Syndicating in 2018

A friend introduced Danny to syndication after watching him buy deals solo for years. He hired a coach, learned the model, and applied everything he already had — construction skills, banking knowledge, property management experience — to raise capital and start buying bigger deals for investors.

Most real estate investors think insurance is enough to protect them.

It is not.

And if you own property in an LLC right now — there is a new federal law with a $10,000 fine and up to two years in jail that most investors have never heard of.

Today's guests are here to change that.

Garrett is a Rich Dad Poor Dad advisor for Robert Kiyosaki and a leading expert on LLCs and asset protection. Ted is a licensed attorney in Wyoming, Nevada, and Texas specializing in corporate law and compliance.

Why Insurance Alone Is Not Enough

Insurance can be denied or underpaid. The second line of defense is an LLC holding title to your property. A lawsuit can only reach what is inside the LLC — not your personal assets.

---

The Wyoming LLC Structure Every Investor Should Know

Hold title in a state LLC — then have it owned by a Wyoming LLC. Wyoming's charging order means creditors cannot force a sale. They can only lien distributions. Most contingency attorneys walk away rather than wait.

---

The Biggest Mistake Investors Make With LLCs

Setting one up is not enough. You must transfer title into the LLC, maintain a separate bank account, have an operating agreement, hold annual meetings, and follow all ongoing formalities. Fifty percent of people who get sued lose LLC protection because they skipped these steps.

---

The Corporate Transparency Act — What Every LLC Owner Must Know

This is the most significant corporate law passed in 40 years. If you own an LLC you must file beneficial ownership information with the federal government. Miss the deadline and the penalty is $10,000 and up to two years in jail. Corporate Direct files this for clients for $250 and tracks all ongoing update requirements.
