In today's episode, we sit down with Whitney Elkins-Hutton, a real estate powerhouse in the industry for over 22 years.

Whitney shares her journey from an "accidental landlord" to becoming the Director of Investment Education at PassiveInvesting.com. She talks about how she went from flipping houses to building a diverse portfolio with over 6,500 residential units, 15 express car washes, and more than 2,200 self-storage units across 11 states. Whitney also dives into the benefits of passive investing, especially in commercial real estate, and explains how it can help busy professionals build wealth without managing properties themselves.

Whitney is a real estate maven who, after purchasing her first rental in 2002, and hitting a homerun, then nearly losing it all on her second deal, took control and figured out how to invest in real estate the right way. She realized that success must leave clues. So, she studied and replicated the very personal finance and wealth creation strategies the wealthy use to create financial freedom.

Today, Whitney is a partner in $700M+ of real estate —including over 5000+ residential units (MF, MHP, SFR, and assisted living) and more than 1400+ self-storage units across 7 states—and experience flipping over $3.0M in residential real estate.
