About the show

Some of us followed the traditional path to success. We put in the work. We got the education, the job, the good salary. But generational wealth still feels out of reach. This is not about buying Lamborghinis. It’s not another zero money down, get rich quick scheme. This show teaches high earning professionals how to make their careers optional by turning a little bit of savings into a real estate portfolio worth millions. Hosts Palak and Niti did it themselves. They’re sharing the blueprint that let them replace their six figure salaries with passive income, achieve financial freedom, and build an investment portfolio that will change their children’s lives. They’ve already taught hundreds of others to do the same. If you have a little bit of money to invest, and a few hours per week you’re willing to dedicate to your future, this is the place to start.

She Hit $1 Million in Real Estate (And This Deal Has a $50K - $60K Spread)

Jackalyn just crossed a $1 million rental portfolio , and her very first BRRRR has a $50K to $60K spread . She did it while working full time as a travel MRI tech and owning two self-defense gyms. In this episode, you'll learn the difference between a rent-advantage and a refi-advantage property, what to ask at every inspection before you buy, and the simple notebook habit she uses so every deal teaches her the next one. And once you hear who already took the money out of a rent-ready property, you'll never look at a "move-in ready" listing the same way again. She also shares the one word she refuses to use about her goals, and what she says instead. So if you're working full time and wondering whether you could build something like this too, watch until the end.

10 Biggest Lessons After 10 Years in Real Estate & $10 Million Portfolio

My 10 biggest lessons from 10 years in real estate and a $10 million portfolio. I didn't come from money.

I've split this video into five lessons about money and five lessons about myself. You'll hear how I went from hyperventilating in a checkout line over a bedroom set to buying assets sight unseen, why passive income still takes me hours every week, the lesson I didn't learn until year 7 of my journey, and what I discovered about myself after my first million dollar year.

How I Went From Corporate Employee to Millionaire With Rental Properties

17 years as a corporate employee with two young children. Today, I'm a millionaire because of rental properties. I'm walking you through the exact steps I took to make that shift in just a few years. I didn't come from money, and I didn't have any family background in this, I had to learn every lesson the hard way. This is the real, honest picture of what that shift looks like, and whether it was actually worth it. My husband and I went from two exhausted corporate professionals to building a rental portfolio together. I get honest about the real numbers behind why we quit, the business ideas we tried and rejected before landing on real estate, and the mistake I made buying real estate at the wrong time. I also break down the supercharged version of the BRRRR strategy we built our portfolio on, and the four levels of real estate investing. If you've ever done the math on your own paycheck and felt like something didn't add up, this one's for you. 0:00 – Intro: 17 years an engineer, now a millionaire 01:07 – The six-figure trap: what I was really taking home 02:20 – Why we started looking for a way out 02:31 – Business ideas we tried (and why they didn't work) 05:16 – The real estate mistake I made before 2008 06:49 – How rental properties changed the math 10:20 – The strategy we built our portfolio on 13:24 – The 4 Levels of investing 13:02 – Life after quitting corporate 16:55 – My advice if you're starting this journey ___________ Resources: - Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K - Book a Call - http://www.openspacesacademy.com/bookacall?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Exact 5-day Blueprint One Property Away Challenge - http://onepropertyawaychallenge.com?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Join Our Tuesday Live Call: https://openspacesacademy.com/live?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 Connect with Palak and Niti • Website: https://www.openspacesacademy.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name • YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video_name Disclaimer: This video is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.

$150K Profit on the First Deal? Here’s the Full Breakdown

She agreed to buy a $230,000 property she had never set foot in. Sent contractors to walk it in her place, ran the numbers from her kitchen table, and signed. Six months later: a projected $115,000 to $165,000 in profit. Her first deal. Ever. Shelly didn't grow up around money, or real estate. She grew up watching her mother give thirty years to the same company. When her mother died, the company's entire response was one flower arrangement. Years later, Shelly gave that same company her own thirty years. Director of Business Development, a billion-dollar sales quota, and a body that started breaking down under the weight of it. Two spinal surgeries and a reorg later, the company made the decision she'd been avoiding. Palak sits down with Shelly to break down the real numbers behind that first deal, exactly how she moved that fast with zero real estate experience, and why she wasn't going to let a company write the ending to her story too. 01:05 – Meet Shelly 02:16 – Her body breaking down 02:46 – Back surgery complications 08:40 – Breaking down the triplex numbers 15:40 – Advice for information overload 16:02 – The power of community and mentors 19:20 – Bringing her kids into the journey 20:16 – Her mom's $28K raise 22:40 – Building her team from scratch 24:17 – The legacy she's building 30:59 – Her 5-year vision 31:34 – Advice for anyone on the fence ___________ Resources: - Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K - Book a Call - http://www.openspacesacademy.com/bookacall?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 - Exact 5-day Blueprint One Property Away Challenge - http://onepropertyawaychallenge.com - Join Our Tuesday Live Call: https://openspacesacademy.com/live?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=video1 Connect with Palak and Niti • Website: https://www.openspacesacademy.com/ • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/ https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/ • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspacesacademy • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/ • YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251 • TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy Disclaimer : This video is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.
