What if the biggest mistake investors make is focusing on how to buy a deal instead of how to exit it? In this episode, Frank Herman shares how he and his partners scaled to over $100M in real estate assets , completed multiple full-cycle projects, and built a unique investment strategy around student housing and condo conversions. Frank explains how his journey from truck driver to real estate entrepreneur began with Rich Dad Poor Dad , how an unexpected capital-raising opportunity led to a $5 million partnership, and why patience, transparency, and investor trust have become the foundation of his business. He breaks down his approach to nurturing investor relationships, identifying opportunities with multiple exit strategies, and focusing on specialized partnerships rather than trying to do everything himself. For investors and entrepreneurs looking to build long-term wealth, raise capital effectively, and create sustainable growth, this conversation delivers practical lessons from more than two decades in real estate.
