From Firefighter to Mortgage Loan Officer To Real Estate Investor - Aaron Sheets #34
Before delving full time into real estate, Aaron Sheats spent a good amount of time during his career as a firefighter. Having studied music and entrepreneurship in college, that was *obviously* the most logical career path for him. He wasn’t quite sure what he wanted to do after college, but he also knew he didn’t want to do something ordinary. So he gave the Academy a shot and made the leap. But throughout his time in college and training, real estate was always something that had interested him and kept in the back of his mind. It took a few years, but once he realized how many units it would take for him to quit his day job as a firefighter, he was bitten again by the real estate bug. Over time, he’s taken his side hustle as a mortgage loan officer and turned it into his full time job. With this scaleable, commission-based work, he’s able to implement the entrepreneurial lessons he’s learned in years past. And that’s where we meet Aaron in this episode. Investing now for just over a year, what started as a means to quit his day job became the same vehicle to grow his life and wealth. Up to date, Aaron owns a long term rental along with four short term rental cabins in Gatlinburg. Going forward, he plans to continue his growth trajectory in all aspects of his business from lending, to partnerships, as well as his own personal portfolio. And eventually, dabble in the commercial space.
