  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Some of us followed the traditional path to success. We put in the work. We got the education, the job, the good salary. But generational wealth still feels out of reach. This is not about buying Lamborghinis. It’s not another zero money down, get rich quick scheme. This show teaches high earning professionals how to make their careers optional by turning a little bit of savings into a real estate portfolio worth millions. Hosts Palak and Niti did it themselves. They’re sharing the blueprint that let them replace their six figure salaries with passive income, achieve financial freedom, and build an investment portfolio that will change their children’s lives. They’ve already taught hundreds of others to do the same. If you have a little bit of money to invest, and a few hours per week you’re willing to dedicate to your future, this is the place to start.

    Balancing Real Estate with Motherhood, Business, and A W-2: Rosa’s Investor Journey

    In this week’s episode of The Wealth Blueprint Podcast, we sit down with Rosa, a powerhouse mom, entrepreneur, and investor from Queens who turned financial stress into a thriving real estate empire.
 Rosa did everything "right": degrees, career, marriage, and a home in New York. But when she and her husband realized their mortgage was swallowing their paychecks, they knew something had to change. That moment of "this can’t be it" sparked a journey that led Rosa from a single home to building a $2.5M portfolio with 13 doors in Philadelphia. Today, she balances a W2 job, her own company, motherhood, and real estate investing. She shows that with systems, support, and the right mindset, you don’t need to choose between stability and freedom. She shares how she went from feeling mortgage-strapped to owning multi-family properties, the role of systems, community, and mentorship in scaling quickly and lessons she has learned from triplex rehabs, building a reliable team from afar, and managing time across career, business, parenting, and real estate. If you have ever wondered how to juggle it all or felt like the rules you were taught about money and success were not enough, Rosa’s story will inspire you to think bigger, act bolder, and start building wealth on your terms. In this Episode * 00:41 – Introduction to Rosa’s story and background * 02:01 – Why Real Estate? * 03:54 – The importance of systems, processes, and community support * 04:30 – Navigating contractor challenges and building the right team * 05:30 – Mindset shifts: overcoming fear, comparison, and taking action * 07:08 – Managing Time Across A W-2, A Business and Real Estate * 11:12 – Why she joined ICONS and how it helped her scale beyond single families * 16:55 – Rosa’s Vision for the future * 52:45 – Advice to her children (and all new investors) Resources: - Get a copy of Accelerate Your Real Estate - https://a.co/d/bdW6j7K - Book a call - http://www.openspaceswomen.com/bookacall - 5-Day Real Estate Investor Accelerator - https://www.theinvestoraccelerator.com Connect with Palak and Niti - Website: https://www.openspaceswomen.com/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/openspaceswomen/ https://www.instagram.com/openspacesacademy/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/openspaceswomen - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/openspacescapital/ - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@openspaces1251 - TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy https://www.tiktok.com/@openspacesacademy
