Soli Cayetano’s successful foray into real estate began during her college years. She began in office leasing at a commercial real estate firm during her second year. It was during her senior year, the year the pandemic hit, that Cayetano learned her biggest lesson. Commission-based, her income dwindled as the country shut down.

Cayetano’s goal was to find out how to build passive income streams so that if this happened again, she wouldn’t be without money coming in. She turned to the Internet for help and found Bigger Pockets and its stories of successful real estate investors.

Knowing the area where she grew up was too pricey to start, she looked to Cincinnati for her first rental property purchase. Then twenty-two, she signed her first mortgage without a co-signer thanks to her work history and having had a credit card for four years. Bought sight unseen, she flew out to do the renovations on her first property herself.

Since then, she has used the BRRR method – Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat – to grow her real estate portfolio. She hit her goal of $100k in passive income by age thirty-five years early. Cayetano shares her experience and wisdom across multiple social media platforms that include Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Facebook.

Somers says that an entrepreneur can learn all the strategies there are, but if you don’t learn how to lead people, you will not be able to scale a company. Somers also believes mindset is a huge factor in becoming an entrepreneur.

Taking his lessons from the bestselling book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Somers took action and implemented his plan. Shifting career goals and changing the way he thought changed his life. Somers is a CEO and founder in the real estate industry.

Financially free and in charge of his own time and when he works, Somers has set his sights on doubling his real estate investment. Somers shares his unique wisdom across social media platforms that include Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, X, YouTube, and The Rich Somers Report podcast.
