About Tommy Harr

Tommy transformed from a home inspector to a financially free millionaire real estate investor by 27. Starting with nothing, he mastered real estate investment through fix and flips, wholesaling, and the BRRRR Method. With seven years in the industry, he initially boosted his father's home inspection business, inspecting over 5000 houses, and leveraged this experience to renovate over 150 properties and amass a 70-unit rental portfolio valued at $15 million, alongside managing 25 short-term rentals. He has also completed over 200 wholesaling deals. Featured twice in Business Insider in 2022, Tom has coached over 300 students nationwide and enabled his mother to retire in 2022 to oversee his Airbnb operations, sales, and renovations.
