Welcome to Building Passive Income with CREI Collin

Master the art of pacing your capital deployment. Learn the 3-phase strategy, diversification rules, and why dry powder matters for long-term success.

Episode Summary:

Timing isn’t everything in investing—but it’s close. In this episode, CREI Collin breaks down the Paced Deployment Strategy, a three-phase framework designed to help you invest intelligently over 18-36 months.
