Episode #127 – In this interview, the Charm City Buyers (Khalil Uqdah and Kyara Gray) share how they created enough rental income in Baltimore, Maryland to be financially independent before 30 years old. BUT they didn’t stop there. They’re also on a mission to positively transform the community and neighborhoods where they invest, and they’re bringing other investors along with them. This instantly became one of Chad’s favorite interviews. Enjoy!

Kyara & Khalil – what a powerful couple! I am impressed and will be following up with you. Thanks for taking the lead. You are making history. You have accomplished so much. I am proud of you. Thanks
Thank you for listening and for commenting, Eliza. I was honored to have Kyara and Khalil on the show. I learned a lot and was inspired.
Thanks so much for this episode. It found me at the just the right time.
I’m totally interested in real estate investing, but couldn’t help feeling that there was something missing for me in the idea of buying properties just for money.
I felt like I needed a deeper purpose to it for it to really get me motivated.
I had just written about this exact idea in my journal and later that day saw this podcast.
It was serendipitous to say the least. I really want to continue to explore this.
After listening to the podcast, in an effort to expand the conversation,
I made a post on BP (Revitalization and Empowerment as a REI Mission) to see if there were others who are motivated by this and to share ideas, information and inspiration.
I also have been binge-watching all of the videos on the Charm City Buyers YouTube channel. I like their style. I’m so glad you had them on the podcast or I might never have found them. Look forward to more on this! Thank you!!!
That’s wonderful to hear, Heather! I’m really glad their example sparked an idea and more motivation with you. The real estate investing (or any business) path is a long one, so it does require some deep motivation and alignment with what you’re interested in. And Kyara and Khalil are awesome investors to follow and emulate.
