Adversity tends to breed ingenuity and genius. More often than not, smart and capable individuals will find a way to use their hardships as fuel to build something better. This is exactly what house flipping, wholesaling, and rental property-owning partners Noah Evans and Jeff Fawson did.

Noah and Jeff were both following different paths to real estate success, taking on apprenticeships under investors who had already made it big. It wasn’t until Jeff was doing some work on Noah’s house that the two began talking, realizing they had the same type of past conflicts and saw each other’s strengths as their own weaknesses.

Now, they’re building a systematized, scaling real estate business, operating in multiple markets, and bringing in not only flipping and wholesaling profits but generational wealth-building cash flow. Noah and Jeff discuss how they research markets for investing, systematizing fix and flips down to a point-by-point checklist, and how to make networking beneficial (instead of a drag).
