From Morocco to Montreal to Miami, Mehdi Khachani certainly networked his way through building his thriving real estate business. His formula is simple: do the things you love and everything else follows.

In this episode, Mehdi shares his journey of transitioning from his engineering job to doing full-time real estate investing, along with his wife. Together, they formed a real estate company which they’ve vertically integrated, doing property management, working with investors, brokerage, and general contracting. Now, they are managing 600 units, mostly multifamily in Miami, and they’ve also bought their own properties. In the next few years, their vision is to acquire 1,000 units, and from there, leverage their other businesses to support the investment.
