How to Invest in Real Estate in 2026 with a Full Time Job (5 Simple Steps)

Melissa Nash Real Estate Investor & Coach Season 2025 Episode 41

Overwhelmed by the idea of investing in real estate while working full-time? In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact 5-step system I've used to help over 2,000 busy professionals buy rental properties without quitting their jobs, spending endless hours researching, or needing a real estate degree.

If you've been stuck in analysis paralysis or convinced you don't have enough money to start, this episode gives you the clarity and simple plan to take action today.

What You'll Learn:

  • How to calculate your Freedom Number so you know exactly how many rentals you actually need (one client thought she needed 20 properties but only needed 4)
  • Why buying rental properties where you live is usually a costly mistake and which markets actually produce consistent cash flow
  • + MORE
