They were very well employed in the tech industry. She worked at Amazon. He worked at eBay. But they felt their jobs were not just high tech but high stress, to the point of being “soul-crushing.” That’s when they decided that something had to change, and started investigating real estate and the single-family rental business.Lily and Shane Yong timed it right, during the housing crisis. They’d buy a home and then turn it into a rental when they upgraded. One thing led to another, including some RealWealth networking, and they were soon investing their money out-of-state. The portfolio they’ve built has made it possible to get out of the rat race, and “live life on their own terms.” In this episode, they share their Real Wealth Story with both Kathy and Rich Fettke. That includes how they got started in California and expanded elsewhere, how long it took them to be able to quit their jobs, their decision-making process, their first 1031 exchange, and challenges they have faced and overcome.If you’d like to “live life on your own terms,” Join RealWealth today at www.realwealthshow.com.
