In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I sit down with my good friend and business partner Adam Williams — a true real estate powerhouse who’s scaled from flipping hundreds of single-family homes to syndicating over 11,000 apartment units. Adam shares how a cockroach-filled childhood turned him off real estate — until a chance encounter pushed him to jump all in.
We break down why single-family rentals rarely build true wealth, why apartments are the ultimate cash-flow machine, and how syndications help everyday investors scale big without the headaches. Adam also drops powerful mindset lessons on clarity, purpose, and how to survive the “mud” of entrepreneurship to reach the gold.
If you’ve ever wondered how to turn active income into generational wealth, why you should think bigger than buying a rental house, and how to make your money work while you sleep — this conversation is a blueprint you can’t afford to miss.
