WIIRE 211: The Sacrifices We Made to Build Our Real Estate Portfolios

This week, we are having an honest and heartfelt conversation about the sacrifices that come with building a life through real estate investing. We reflect on our individual financial journeys and the lifestyle changes we made early on—living below our means, rethinking spending habits, and strengthening our personal financial foundations before taking on larger investments. We share what it looked like during our DIY era, the risks we embraced as entrepreneurs, and the lessons we learned by building something from the ground up. While those seasons required hard choices, they also clarified our values and helped us align our lives with what truly mattered.
