Have you ever wondered what buying your first business at 16 is like? In this episode of the Invest2Fi podcast, I have Sam Wegert, The CoLiving Guy and Founder and CEO of UpLevel Martial Arts. Sam is a coach, investor, and entrepreneur who shares his story of buying his first business, a martial arts school, at just 16 years old. He talks about growing and scaling that business to a seven-figure exit and the transformation he underwent after exiting a business that had been his whole life. Now, he has transitioned his identity into a real estate co-living investor.

Throughout his career, Sam taught martial arts for a decade and began investing in real estate through short-term rentals and co-living properties. Now, he owns eight short-term rentals and 115 co-living beds.

Curious about how he did it? Don’t miss this exciting episode on co-living real estate investing! Tune in to hear Sam Wegert's incredible journey from martial arts to real estate and learn valuable insights on how to succeed in the co-living and short-term rental markets.
