Built For Wealth

Ep 017 | How Sam Wegert Scaled to 11-Bedroom Rentals | Co-Living Real Estate Cashflow Strategy

Josh Swart Season 1 Episode 17

In this episode of Built for Wealth, I sit down with co-living investor and entrepreneur Sam Wegert, who went from running martial arts schools to building a scalable room rental empire in Charlotte. Sam breaks down how he transitioned from self-managing four-bedroom houses to developing 10+ bedroom co-living homes that net up to $3,600/month in cash flow—even during hard times.

We talk:
- How he legally operates large co-living homes
- Building community while maintaining high cash flow
- The zoning gray areas and membership lease structures
- Horror stories (including a $10K water bill!)
- His upcoming 18-bedroom duplex development

If you're looking to generate high returns, create affordable housing, and make an impact, this is a must-watch episode.
