In this raw Dropping Bombs episode, blue-collar builder turned real estate investor Brock Holyoak shares how he builds quality homes in 90 days—twice as fast as competitors—while turning investor money three times a year for 45-50% returns. After hitting rock bottom in 2008 and living in a storage unit, Brock rebuilt from zero into a construction powerhouse cranking 70-80 homes yearly under $400K.
Brock breaks down his debt-first investor structure (you get paid before he does), how he can crank 70-80 homes yearly with a 5-person team, and the relationship secrets that keep subcontractors loyal. If you want the real blueprint on building wealth through real estate without the fluff, this conversation delivers.
