In this episode of Save to Zero, hosts Zach and Mike sit down with Steve Niemaszyk to talk about how he built a cleaning business out of necessity, then used that foundation to move into real estate investing. Steve shares what it really looked like in the early days with long hours, cutting back at home, reinvesting every dollar, and figuring things out as he went. He talks openly about what it took to rebuild his income after losing his W-2 job, to create systems, to hire the right people, and to grow a business that could eventually run without him in the middle of everything. You’ll also learn how Steve made the jump into real estate, why being in the right rooms matters, and how his mindset around money changed over time. He also shares why he’s teaching his kids to understand cash flow early, build confidence around money, and surround themselves with people who are already doing what they want to do.
