Welcome back a returning guest-someone who’s made a huge impact in the passive investing world and continues to be aleading voice in the space, Jim Pfeifer. Jim, co-host of the Passive Pockets Podcast and when we last spoke a little over a year ago, he shared his journey transitioning from an active realestate investor to a full-time passive investor. Since then, he’s been busy growing his community, Left Field Investors, which recently merged with Bigger Pockets to create what is now Passive Pockets—a thriving network designed to empower limited partners through connection, education, and access to high-quality deals.
We’re catching up on everything Jim’s been working on and what’s new in his world!
