From Fix & Flip to 1,800 Multifamily Doors with Rachel Grun & Andrea Swick

From Fix & Flip to 1,800 Multifamily Doors with Rachel Grun & Andrea Swick

Author: Mark & Tamiel Kenney October 15, 2022 Duration: 30:25

Two women. Both burned out on fix and flip. Both hungry to scale. They met at a multifamily conference, discovered they lived 20 minutes apart, and within a year had launched a company, a podcast, and a combined portfolio approaching 1,800 doors.

In this episode, Mark and Tamiel Kenney sit down with Rachel Grun and Andrea Swick — co-founders of Good Good Investing — for an honest, energetic conversation about what it actually takes to make the leap from single-family to commercial real estate, build a complementary partnership, and show up as a woman in a space that doesn't always make it easy.

You'll hear:

- How Rachel earned GP equity on Open Door Capital's first fund by sliding into Brandon Turner's DMs — and walked away with a 35% IRR in 18 months

- How Andrea went from zero commercial experience to 1,200 doors in one year

- The real bias women face in commercial real estate — and how Rachel and Andrea are building around it

- Why starting as a passive investor is one of the smartest moves an aspiring syndicator can make

- Practical advice for introverts, shy investors, and anyone who dreads networking events
