From $0 to 7 Units in Chicago — Happy to Answer Questions or Share What I’ve Learned

Hey everyone —

I’ve been quietly investing and reading BP for years, but finally decided it’s time to give back and be more active here.

I’m Micah — a Chicago-based investor who started with zero experience, saved up working a W-2, and bought my first multifamily in Logan Square in 2024 Fast forward to today, and I’ve built a 7-unit portfolio, founded a real estate coaching business, and helped close over $175M in larger commercial deals through my work in acquisitions.

I work mostly with first-timeinvestors in their 20s and 30s who want to buy their first rental but are overwhelmed with where to start. Through my business (Brick by Brick Blueprint), I help them:

  • - Understand their numbers

  • - Build a plan

  • - Make confident offers

  • - Actually close

If you’re working toward your first or next deal — especially if you’re in a high-cost city or trying to do it without family connections or a ton of capital — I’m happy to answer questions, share resources, or just be someone you can bounce ideas off of.

Let me know how I can help!
