Carrying On A Legacy of Real Estate Investing

In this episode of the Sensei Sessions, we sit down with two incredible real estate investors from the Portfolio Program—Matt and Elaine.

What started as a step towards financial independence was inspired by Elaine’s grandmother, who immigrated to the U.S. in her 50s with no English skills but an understanding of the power of real estate. Through perseverance and hard work, she built a multi-million-dollar real estate portfolio in Chicago, a legacy that continues to inspire Elaine today.

Listen to Matt and Elaine share their story, from juggling family life to learning the hard lessons that come with real estate—like dealing with difficult contractors and building the right team. Whether it’s cutting ties with the wrong people or trusting the process to find the right deals, they give us a raw look at their wins, challenges, and the valuable lessons they’ve picked up along the way.

This episode will leave you inspired by the importance of resilience, community, and the power of learning from those who've come before us. They also offer a powerful reminder that the right team and strategy can change everything.
