Brandon Elliott is a real estate investor, entrepreneur, and real estate podcast host based in San Diego, California. He is the host of the Ready. Set. Go. Real Estate Investing Podcast — known simply as Ready — a weekly show launched in May 2018 that is designed to educate, motivate, and prepare listeners to take action on their first or next real estate investment.
Brandon's path to real estate was anything but conventional. After overcoming serious personal setbacks, including house arrest and surviving an explosion that burned 40% of his body, he channeled his experiences into building a real estate portfolio. He immersed himself in self-education, studying real estate investing for hours each day before purchasing his first rental property in Ohio in July 2015. Within months he had acquired a triplex, and by May 2016 he owned 10 income-producing properties, allowing him to leave his restaurant jobs behind.
Brandon's signature approach centers on creative financing — specifically leveraging 0% interest credit cards to fund small multifamily acquisitions and property remodels, a strategy he refined into the BRRRR method. He grew his portfolio to $8.5 million in assets and was recognized as part of the "Top 100 Yahoo Finance." He also founded Credit Counsel Elite (CCE), a platform that teaches business owners and real estate investors how to access up to $500,000 every six months at 0% interest.
Through the Ready podcast, Brandon brings in industry experts and shares hard-earned lessons on small multifamily investing, credit stacking, and building generational wealth.
Brandon Elliott is looking for real estate funding experts and investment vehicle operators to share actionable strategies with their listeners.
