3. Dave Clabeaux, a seasoned real estate investor, is now flipping houses
in Northern Kentucky.
Having recently relocated with his wife and son to Northern Kentucky,
Dave Clabeaux has just started his first rehab project in the area.
A former high school English teacher, Dave got into rehabbing houses as
a way to make extra money on the side. He soon learned that he loved
taking ugly houses and making them beautiful again. “To me, this isn’t
work,” said Clabeaux. “You get to see tangible results for your
efforts. When you rehab houses you are improving your own
community, while making a decent living for yourself. And nothing
beats the feeling of handing over the keys to the beautiful house you just
created to a new family.”

“Real estate investing helped me become financially
independent, which feels amazing. And I love sharing that with
others and helping them to become financially independent as
well’” said Clabeaux. “The cool thing about rehabbing houses
is that once you’ve done it once successfully, you can do it
again and again in any city in the United States. While it is not
rocket science, there are a lot of moving parts, and you really
have to know what you are doing.”
