Today I'm thrilled to be talking with Rod Khleif, the host of the "Lifetime Cash Flow through Real Estate" Podcast. As one of America's top real estate professionals, Rod has personally owned more than 2,000 single family homes and multiple apartment communities. Rod shares his rags-to-riches-to-rags-to-riches story, from his humble beginnings as a young, impoverished Dutch immigrant to incredible success.  Rod also discusses his remarkable triumphs, and spectacular failures, which he affectionately calls 'seminars'. We'll talk about the 800 Single Family Home Portfolio he lost in 2008, and how he's now rebuilding his fortunes through multi-family investing.  Rod also tells us why he prefers multi-family to single-family and how multi-family can help protect you during the next economic downturn. As a bonus, you can listen to this week's episode of Rod's podcast "Lifetime Cash Flow through Real Estate" to hear Rod interview me, Brian Hamrick, about my career in Real Estate Investing.  Be sure to check out both podcast episodes - they're required listening to podcast fans & real estate investors!
