#202: Tucker Pinyan: How to Scale Fast Without a Trust Fund

How does a kid from Peru, Nebraska go from mowing lawns at his dad’s six-plex to building a real estate portfolio with over 100 units—all before turning 25?

In this episode, Tucker Pinyan lays it all out. From his days in the National Guard and trade school to creatively structuring zero-down deals and owning a dumpster rental company (with a killer domain name), Tucker is proof that hustle trumps experience. He shares how he:

Bought his first property at 18 and pulled off a cash-out refi right away
Used direct mail and a mentor (shoutout to Josh Nix) to do 10 deals in 6 months
Closed a $2M+ 24-unit multifamily deal and walked away with $50K at closing
Added storage units and a roll-off dumpster biz to diversify income streams
Stays lean, scrappy, and always focused on the next opportunity
Whether you’re 18 or 58, this episode is packed with gold nuggets on how to get started, how to scale, and how to do it all without a trust fund or a fancy suit.
