Episode Summary
In TCREI Show #29, we talk with Alyssa Strom, a passionate and experienced real estate investor based in The Twin Cities. Her journey began in 2014 after reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and she’s since been involved in property management, real estate development, and building her own portfolio of investment properties.
Alyssa brings thoughtful insight and great storytelling to the show, walking us through deals that didn’t go according to plan — and how she kept moving forward anyway. She’s all about pursuing lifestyle and financial freedom without burning out, and her grounded perspective is something all investors can learn from. We’re already looking forward to having her back in a future episode to dive into her impressive networking game.
