Built For Wealth

Ep 016 | He Quit His Job After Buying a Car Wash! Dan Schiermeyers' Journey to Financial Independence

• Josh Swart • Season 1 • Episode 16

In this episode of the Built for Wealth Podcast, I sit down with real estate investor and engineer-turned-entrepreneur, Dan Schiermeyer, who went from a corporate job in aerospace to building a portfolio of small business-backed real estate assets. Including a cash-flowing car wash, automated self-storage facility, and a cutting-edge startup in the storage tech space.

You'll hear how Dan:
- Started with house hacking without even knowing it
- Scaled from single-family rentals to commercial properties
- Used SBA loans and creative financing to grow fast
- Automated and optimized small businesses for big returns
- Created margin in his life by living below his means

This episode is packed with value for anyone considering commercial real estate, self-storage investing, small business acquisition, or looking for financial freedom through intentional living.
