From Bedroom Startup to $75M Portfolio | Trevor Howard & Dane McKinney (Deal Junkies) E360
Sat Feb 07 2026
In this episode, we sit down with two operators who feel like our West Coast twins. Same mindset. Same approach. Same belief that sharing the process matters just as much as the outcome. What began in an apartment bedroom grew into a highly successful real estate business by documenting the journey in real time, staying transparent through both the wins and the mistakes, and allowing relationships to compound over years.
We talk about how building in public created trust before scale, why podcasting and content became a force multiplier for their network and deal flow, and how visibility turned into a real competitive advantage in a crowded industry. This conversation is not about hype. It is about consistency, credibility, and doing the work while people are watching.
If you are building a business or growing a portfolio and wondering whether to share your journey before it feels ready, this episode will change how you think about visibility, leverage, and what it really takes to build something that lasts.
