  • No Fear All Fortune with Hadar Orkibi
    Jun 27 2023

    In this episode, we meet Hadar Orkibi, an Israeli-born real estate enthusiast who shares his journey from being a licensed agent in Israel to becoming a successful investor in the United States. Hadar grew up helping his father with his real estate ventures and developed a fascination for the freedom that passive income can bring. Wanting to explore real estate further, he obtained their license and gained experience in renting properties. However, Hadar soon realized that being an agent wasn't the right fit for him. He desired to be on the other side of the spectrum as property owners, reaping the benefits of passive income. Moving to New Zealand with his wife, they immersed themselves in the local market, doing manual labor and engaging with real estate investor associations.


    They started trading properties as a wholesaler and built a portfolio of small multifamily units and commercial real estate. As the New Zealand market became less favorable for cash flow, Hadar set his sights on the United States. With his mother being an American citizen, he had the advantage of easy travel and access to financing.


    After thorough market research and exploring different cities, Hadar began investing in the United States, starting with smaller properties. He honed his skills in wholesaling and joined a coaching program to gain knowledge and confidence. Their first major deal, a 45-unit apartment community, proved to be a turning point in Hadar's career.


    Since then, he has experienced significant positive growth and is actively expanding their real estate portfolio. Tune in to hear more about Hadar Orkibi's journey and the lessons they've learned along the way.


    1:59 Hadar starts on how he got into investing and his background coming from Tel Aviv, Israel

    10:09 Hadar gives some valuable points on where to start if you’re planning to be in the real estate field

  • Flexibility vs. Fulfillment: How this Physical Therapist Ditched the 9-5 Grind and Found Calling in Real Estate!
    Jun 13 2023

    After completing a seven-year journey to earn his doctorate in physical therapy, Lee Yoder ventured into the field and initially found a satisfying position as a home health physical therapist. The flexibility and convenience of scheduling allowed him to balance work and family life effectively. However, he soon realized that the job didn't provide the level of challenge and fulfillment he sought. Lee then transitioned to a startup staffing company where he gradually moved away from physical therapy and assumed a role in operations. 

    This change brought excitement and fulfillment, but unfortunately, it demanded more of his time and compromised the flexibility he once enjoyed. As his wife and him were starting our family, he didn't want their lives to revolve solely around my work schedule. Recognizing the need for a different path, they embarked on a journey towards financial independence. Exploring various options and reading books like "Rich Dad Poor Dad," he realized there was a different game to play beyond the conventional career choices. With a risk-taking and ambitious nature, Lee decided to venture into entrepreneurship, particularly real estate.
