About This Episode

Welcome to the From Trial to Triumph Podcast!

The show about leaning into life’s constant testing on your way to learning your biggest blessings!

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
Location is very important when acquiring real estate.

In this episode, I talk with Jose Miller who shares his experiences of investing in neighborhoods that often have drug dealers as well as subsidy residents. The goal isn’t always the return but, providing housing for the less fortunate.

Jose Miller started investing in real estate because a friend needed a place to live. Currently, he’s partnered in over 200 units.
Even working as an aerospace engineer, he still enjoys self-managing the 12 units that he owns, because he can rent them to people that others won’t, giving them that extra second chance.
His favorite activities include playing ultimate frisbee, scuba diving, and storytelling.
