Patrick Donley talks with Donovan Adesoro about how his start in house hacking fueled the desire to do larger deals which led to him developing 16 duplexes in the Houston area with an additional 30 currently under construction. 

Donovan is a 26-year-old real estate developer and also Investor Relations Director for Fund That Flip. He is originally from St. Paul, MN, and graduated with a petroleum engineering degree in 2019. After moving to Houston, TX, for a job in the oil industry, he got his start in real estate with a house hack of a duplex during the middle of the pandemic. 
Noticing a lack of duplex inventory throughout the city, Donovan decided to raise outside capital and build them himself, which he has done several times and intends to get into even larger-scale projects in 2023.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN:
- How Donovan got his start in house hacking- What the pros and cons of house hacking are
