There is nothing that feels more discouraging and defeating than crushing debt, is there? If this is an obstacle you've been facing, then this is an episode you absolutely don't want to miss.

Welcome back to the "Inspired To Invest" real estate podcast.  If you'd rather watch than listen, go to: https://youtu.be/oBO_kBujrGU

This week, we are with Nick Skalkos, a multi-award winning platinum recording podcast who was incredibly successful in his musical career, but he just didn't have the money to show for it.

After watching a few episodes of Income Property with Scott MacGillivray, Nick was inspired to leverage the space in his home to house hack, so he could save money and climb out of debt.

From there, he took the leap to start educating himself about all of the various real estate strategies out there, and has managed to scale his portfolio to hundreds of doors, not only across Canada, but also into the United States.

Brace yourself for Nick's nuggets of wisdom, beneficial for real estate investors in the beginning of their journey as well as for those who may be further along on their path. His insights are both practical and profound.

Find out how Nick has strategically positioned himself in the industry as a thought leader, expert, and master capital raiser - all extremely attractive qualities to potential partners he was contending when he was ready to grow.

And grow he did!

His journey as a real estate investor, is nothing short of inspiring. Nick's story is not one you should miss.
