Episode Description

In Part 2 of our conversation with Ford Wagner, we move past the origin story and get into the real substance: the portfolio. Ford breaks down how he’s accumulated 14 doors in just two years, primarily using BRRR strategies and contract for deed deals, while leaving very little of his own cash stuck in the properties.

This episode dives deep into the unsexy but critical details that actually make deals work — navigating Cat 2 properties, handling title issues, operating with Section 8 tenants, and, most importantly, how to plan for appraisals from day one to ensure a successful BRRR. If you want a realistic, boots-on-the-ground look at building a portfolio through non-traditional acquisitions — this is the playbook.
