On this episode of Deal Nation we're joined by Rafael Cortez, organizational psychologist and successful real estate entrepreneur running multiple businesses including a nationwide wholesaling operation, fix-and-flip business, and real estate brokerage. Rafael shares his journey from firefighter to full-time investor, revealing how he transitioned from working 60+ hour weeks to closing 10-15 deals monthly while investing just 4-6 hours per week in his distressed property business. Learn his six-stage framework for systematizing any real estate operation, why he advocates against outsourcing too early, and how proper delegation transforms your business from a job into a wealth-building machine. Whether you're struggling with burnout or ready to scale, Rafael's insights on building effective teams and reclaiming your time are invaluable for any real estate entrepreneur.
"If you're looking down at operations, it's hard to look up at the possibilities. As the CEO, creating vision and identifying opportunity becomes your responsibility." - Rafael Cortez
