What if you could turn life's setbacks into stepping stones to financial success? Join us for an illuminating conversation with Sam Moke, as he recounts his inspiring journey from the Congo to becoming a prominent real estate investor in northeast Wisconsin. Sam's story begins with a serendipitous basketball camp trip to the US and a life-altering win in the Diversity Visa Lottery. He shares the hurdles he overcame, from mastering English in South Africa to navigating the American banking and credit systems, all while maintaining an unwavering sense of gratitude and seizing every opportunity that came his way.
Sam's path wasn't straightforward. Initially aspiring to be a physical therapy assistant, he faced educational setbacks and language barriers. Instead of giving up, he pivoted towards real estate investment, starting with a triplex in Manitowoc. We delve into the complexities of building a credit history and achieving financial literacy as a new citizen, offering practical advice on managing debt and leveraging educational resources. Sam's story underscores the critical role of continuous learning and strategic planning on the road to financial independence.
Taking risks and learning from failures is a recurring theme in our discussion. Sam shares his hands-on experience with the BRRRR strategy in real estate investing—Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat. From overcoming fear to expanding his portfolio to five properties and 11 units, with another one under contract, Sam exemplifies resilience and proactive learning. We wrap up by emphasizing the importance of community and support networks, inviting our listeners to connect with fellow Wisconsin investors for shared growth and success. Tune in to learn from Sam's remarkable journey and gain valuable insights into real estate investment strategies.
