From Duplex to $10 Million Portfolio: Bob Biggins' Path to 500 Doors — Rental Property Owner & Real Estate Investor Podcast

What does it take to grow from a single duplex to managing 85 units worth nearly $10 million—and then set your sights on 500 doors?

In this episode, Brian Hamrick talks with Bob Biggins, a Michigan-based investor, licensed realtor, and YouTube creator who has been in real estate for nearly 30 years. Starting with a house-hack duplex in the 1990s, Bob slowly built his portfolio while working a corporate job. Today, after exiting that career, he's fully focused on multifamily investing and scaling up.

You'll learn:

How Bob used education and persistence to build a solid foundation in real estate.
Why his mindset shift from "thinking small" to "thinking big" is fueling his current growth.
The challenges of managing and rehabbing older housing stock common in Michigan.
Why self-managing has allowed him to reinvest, increase property values, and build cash flow.
The role of mentorship, networking, and platforms like YouTube in sharing knowledge and attracting opportunities.
How Bob plans to make the leap from 85 to 500 units over the next five years.

This is a story of patience, persistence, and bold goals—perfect inspiration for anyone looking to scale their own real estate business.
