Michael Ketchen didn’t grow up around money. He didn’t go to business school. He was a burned-out educator just trying to flip a house in 2017.

Eight years later? He’s built a $120M real estate portfolio using one core principle: efficiency.

In this episode, Michael shares how he went from special ed teacher to full-time investor using the BRRRR method, creative financing, and the one mindset shift most people overlook.

If you’ve ever wanted to leave your W2, this is your blueprint to do it without syndicating, without big investors—and without waiting 30 years.

Michael also covers:

• Why door count is meaningless (and what actually matters)
• How he turned one 13-unit building into $650K+ in wealth
• His “lazy reposition” play that added $3M in equity—no rehab required

You don’t need a trust fund, a finance degree, or a massive following to win big in real estate.

Just ask Jonah Moses.

Jonah’s the guy who messed up his first rental, lost $25K on a condo, and took a decade-long break from real estate to work a tech job. But when he came back, he went all-in—flipping a house while unemployed, buying a vending business with a HELOC, and eventually… acquiring a MARINA.

He’s one of our Elite Mastermind members who’s killing it, all while living a pretty chill lifestyle – a turnaround he credits to getting around the right people.

This episode is proof that a normal guy can build serious wealth in a relatively short time – with the right mindset and support.

You’ll learn:

• Why the wrong asset class slowed Jonah down
• How he bought his next door neighbor’s house… and made a killing
• How to tell if a mastermind is the “right one”
• The single belief that kept him moving when the math didn’t pencil

Most investors would have skipped this deal. Mitch and Travis didn’t.

And now it might be one of their best plays of the year.

In this episode, the Zero to 100 hosts break down how they spotted a highly cash-flowing opportunity everyone else ignored — and how YOU can do the same, even in today’s “tight” market.

Forget what you’ve heard about there being no deals left.

Deals aren’t found. They’re made.

Travis and Mitch also cover:

✅ Why mobile home parks may be the most recession-resistant asset class

✅ How to negotiate terms beyond price to make any deal pencil

✅ Which apartment markets to avoid in 2024 (and which ones might bounce)

What would your life look like if you stopped playing small—and bet on yourself instead?

Blake Dailey was a newly commissioned Air Force officer with just $2,200 in his bank account when he bought his first property. Fast-forward a few years, and he’s now operating a $17 million portfolio of boutique hotels, bringing in over $3M in annual revenue.

And the craziest part? He did it before leaving the military.

This episode is a front-row seat to the no-BS blueprint for escaping the 9-to-5, building generational wealth, and doing it your way—with speed, conviction, and strategic risk.

If you've been waiting for permission to take action... this is it.

Blake also covers:

• Why short-term rentals were just a stepping stone to boutique hotel ownership
• The brutal truth about why most people never take the first step
• His real-life “BRRRR” strategy on a $357K hotel deal that appraised at $1.6M
