Chad Ackerman - Wealth Beyond Your W2
from REL Freedom Podcast · host Mike Swenson
Can you build meaningful income through real estate without becoming a landlord or adding another job to your already busy schedule? Chad Ackerman is a former corporate HR and compensation executive with more than 25 years of experience who realized his financial future was far too dependent on his W2 income. That realization sent him down the path of passive real estate investing, where he made early mistakes, learned valuable lessons, and eventually co-founded Left Field Investors, one of the largest communities for passive investors, later acquired by BiggerPockets. Today, through CARE (Chad Ackerman Real Estate), Chad helps busy professionals move from confusion and overwhelm to clarity and confident action as passive real estate investors. He shares what he wishes he knew when he started, how to evaluate passive investment opportunities, avoid common mistakes, and create income streams without dealing with tenants, toilets, or day-to-day property management. If you're a high-performing professional looking to diversify beyond your W2 income and build a path toward greater financial freedom, this episode offers practical insights to help you take your first, or next step into passive real estate investing.FOLLOW:https://chadackermanrealestate.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/chad-ackerman-8089a8a/SUBSCRIBE IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO BUILD WEALTH THROUGH OPPORTUNITIES IN THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY ✅ http://relfreedom.tv GET STARTED INVESTING TODAY AND ACCESS OUR DEAL LIST! 📈 https://pinnaclecapitalinvestments.com/ LEARN ABOUT REL FREEDOM & HEAR MORE REAL LIFE STORIES 🎙️ http://www.FreedomThroughRealEstate.com FREEBIES: DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE FREEDOM FOUNDATION BLUEPRINT 💵 https://www.relfreedom.com/blueprint SUBSCRIBE TO THE REL FREEDOM PODCAST 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rel-freedom-podcast/id1535281574🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5nXA5hLHbDzRwxypc2wLur?si=uwhs8FjVS_mpUAG2znbBDA&nd=1&dlsi=069fb8d4b74d4cfb LET'S CONNECT 👉 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-swenson/👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getrelfreedom/ 👉 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@relfreedom 👉 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mswenson13
