In this clip, Rob Rowsell talks about his former rehab roommate Jake Garcia’s real estate journey. Like Rob, Jake is also a former drug addict. Years after achieving sobriety, Jake reached out to Rob for advice, in order to advance his new career. Today, Jake and Nicki own over 60 rental homes in the state of Arizona. They are a true real estate success story.
Real Estate Success Story
When Rob Rowsell first befriended Jake Garcia, they were both recovering drug addicts. They roomed together on their road to wellness. As Rob documented in his book Addicted To Life, he was done with life on the streets, in an endless cycle of addiction to heroin and crack cocaine. Once each of these friends overcame their vices, they went their separate ways, but kept in touch. Rob’s fortunes grew as he advanced in the auto repair ownership field. Later, he sold his automotive shop businesses in order to concentrate full time on real estate. Jake took notice, and phoned his old roommate for tips on getting into property investing himself.
With Rob’s guidance, Jake and his wife Nicki dove into the real estate field. Before too long, the Garcias had become a real estate success story, investing in dozens of rental homes, 60 of which are in Arizona. To this day, Jake and Rob are good friends, and Jake attends our ATL Inner Circle Community meetings. These two share vast property investment knowledge with other ATL members every month.
