Episode 78: The Accidental Landlord: Dr. Daa’iyah’s Journey to Financial Independence
In this episode of the Black Doctor Collective Podcast, we are talking with my friend, Dr. Daa’iyah, an emergency medicine physician and adult educator turned creative real estate investor.
We got real in this episode. We talked about how working in medicine can become draining to the point where you literally have to give yourself a pep talk in your car before your shift (IYKYK). Dr. Daa’iyah shared how she was able to make the choice to leave medicine and still maintain her lifestyle through her real estate investments.
She discusses the creative financing strategies she found to acquire properties with minimal upfront costs, and let me tell you, she is a master at this! Do you know anyone else who can buy their first home with only $500 down and bad credit?
Tune in to learn how Dr. Daa’iyah was able to quit her job, build a multi- six-figure business outside of medicine, and have money flowing in without having to show up for it on a daily basis. Hello financial freedom – we love it!
