Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Lee Patterson, a Georgia investor whose family lost their childhood home. Twenty years later, he bought it back for $50K and gave it to his mother on Mother's Day. In between, he built a seven-figure rental portfolio using credit instead of cash.

Lee explains how he turns a three-bedroom house into a four-bedroom moneymaker, why he only buys in college towns, how a 1031 exchange keeps taxes off his sales, and why he's now buying property in Dubai.

You've heard every excuse for waiting. Lee had all of them and started anyway. After this episode, yours won't hold up.
