Why you might need a real estate investing coach

A real estate investment coach is a mentor who supports you in finding your first real estate investment property using their own years of experience and expertise as guidance. They’re someone who can guide you to make the best decisions and avoid costly mistakes as you build your own real estate investment portfolio. 

After all, a great real estate business can help you build financial freedom quickly by generating monthly passive income and doing so with tax advantages. (Because real estate is a tax advantaged investment.)

In fact, owning just 3-4 rentals that cash flow $1,500 to $2,500 per month each can completely cover the average U.S. household expenses, which was $6,081 per month in 2022. (1) 

And for those of us who are willing to put in the work, it’s a fantastic way to build your wealth much faster than almost any other vehicle out there. As billionaire, Andrew Carnegie, said, 

“90% of all millionaires become so through owning real estate.”

The popularity of real estate proves it: 

• There are, in total, 48.2 million rental units in the US(2)
• 70% of rental properties are owned by individual investors(3)
• On average, residential real estate generates an annual return of 10.6% and commercial properties average 9.5%.(4) Of course, this includes those who don’t know how to spot a great deal or have a profitable strategy. 

Because you can spend months reading books and watching videos and still be stuck where you started. 

But having someone on your side to bounce ideas off of, help you through all of the research, decisions, and paperwork? That’s a game changer! 

To create a consistent positive cash flow, you can’t just rely on buying in the right location. You also need to know how to spot red flags, find the best tenants and great contractors… the list is long!

As a real estate investing coach, I help you get started fast, without spending years trying to piece things together.

With my coaching, you get:

• One-on-one mentorship: You’ll never feel like you’re guessing. I’ll help you vet deals, run the numbers, and make smart decisions every step of the way.
• Real-world strategy: You’ll use the exact same system I used to retire at 31, while working a full-time job.
• Accountability and support: I’ll make sure you stay on track and keep moving forward, even when life gets busy or the market feels intimidating.

This is the coaching I wish I had when I was starting out. Because most newbies make mistakes…

Why most new real estate investors struggle (and what I learned the hard way)

Let me be honest with you: Real estate investing isn’t “easy.”

It’s one of the smartest investments you can make. But if you go in without a plan, it’s easy to mess up big time. I know because I’ve been there.

When I bought my first rental, I thought I’d done everything right. But two months later, I found out the place needed major repairs. 

Then a pipe burst. Sewage overflowed into the kitchen. I was frantically calling plumbers in the middle of the night. That one fix? $2,000.

Turns out, the whole sewage line needed to be replaced. Add in pest infestations, HVAC issues, misbehaving tenants, and more…

By the time I was done, I’d spent over $30,000 in unexpected repairs. And I was negative cash flow for two years.

Why? Because I thought I could figure it all out alone.

Most new investors make the same mistakes:

• Buying in the wrong area
• Overpaying due to poor analysis
• Hiring unreliable contractors
• Underestimating repairs and holding costs
• Failing to screen tenants properly

It’s not that real estate is too risky. It’s that most beginners don’t know what they don’t know.

That’s exactly why I became a real estate investing coach.

I help you skip those painful lessons and fast-track your results, so you don’t waste years (or lose tens of thousands) trying to figure it all out yourself.

But wait – I haven’t introduced myself! Here’s what you need to know about me…

👋 About Ryan Chaw, real estate investing coach for beginners

When I got started as a real estate investor, I was a full-time pharmacist working 40–50 hours a week. I didn’t have a massive savings account, special connections, or anything else that would’ve given me a leg up. 

But by buying one rental property per year, I built a 7-figure portfolio from scratch in five years. Today, my rentals generate multiple six figures in passive income.

Now, I teach that same system to new investors.

And here’s what I bring to the table:

• ✅ Built a 7-figure real estate portfolio while working full time
• ✅ “Retired” from pharmacy at age 31
• ✅ Featured in Business Insider, BiggerPockets, and more
• ✅ Helped 60+ new investors buy their first cash-flowing property
• ✅ Clients often make $2,500+/month in cash flow from one property
• ✅ Creator of the Max Profit Rentals system, which is proven to work in markets across the U.S.

PS: I share my exact system here: 

Beyond real estate, I’m a huge fan of travel (Japan and Belize are my favorites), I have a black belt in martial arts, and I value family time above all else (fun fact: I’ve solved 20+ escape rooms with my girlfriend and parents). I still practice violin and train jiu-jitsu 3–4 times a week.

But what I’m most passionate about?

Helping new investors create real financial freedom, so you can build wealth, take care of your family, and live life on your terms.

Real Estate Investing for Beginners: FAQ

What is a real estate investing coach? 

A real estate coach is an experienced investor who provides a step-by-step blueprint to help you find, analyze, and close deals. Unlike a course, a mentor provides one-on-one feedback on your specific deals to ensure you don’t overpay or buy in a bad location.

What is the Rent-by-the-Room student housing strategy?

This strategy involves purchasing single-family properties near university campuses or major employment hubs and leasing out individual rooms to qualified students or young professionals rather than renting the entire house to one family. This dramatically increases total monthly rental income and creates a highly stable cash-flow engine.

How much money do I need to start investing in student housing?

While you can start with various loan types, most students find success having a downpayment ready. A good starting point is to have $60,000 saved up. The rent-by-the-room strategy is designed to maximize the ROI on your initial capital faster than any other method.

Is real estate investing coaching worth it for beginners?

Yes. For most beginners, a single mistake in property inspection or tenant screening costs upwards of $10,000. Real estate coaching typically pays for itself within the first deal by helping you secure higher cash flow (an average of $1,500+/mo with our system) and avoiding costly repair “surprises.”

I have a very demanding corporate job. Will I have time for this?

Absolutely. I built my entire portfolio while working full-time as an Infectious Disease Pharmacist. My training focuses heavily on automation, systemization, and building a trusted local “dream team” so you can remain focused on your primary career while your properties predictably grow your wealth.
