From 3 Jobs to a Life in the Alps w/Alexio Barbara |TBN 017

Описание: This episode of the Builder Nation Podcast features San Diego investor, broker, builder, and operator Alexio Barbara, aka “Cashflow Alexio”, who owns and manages over 70 units, has built multiple ground‑up ADU projects, and recently launched Bridgepoint Realty, a multifamily-focused brokerage with nine agents in San Diego.

Alexio breaks down how real brokers actually find off‑market “diamonds in the rough,” why he shifted his focus from cash flow to aggressive equity growth, and how he’s using value‑add and construction financing to chase triple‑digit returns on San Diego ADU and multifamily deals.​

You’ll hear how he juggles three “full‑time jobs” (brokerage, 70‑unit management, and project management) while raising two kids, the systems he’s built with assistants, bookkeepers, and property management software, and the real numbers behind hiring help that 3x’d his income in a year.

He shares wild management stories from rough neighborhoods, costly lessons from garage-to-ADU conversions (floods, drainage, fire, trash, and sprinklers), and a candid look at new fire and code requirements that are reshaping San Diego ADU underwriting.​

The conversation then zooms out into lifestyle design: Alexio’s plan to build a 20M net worth by 2028, detach from day‑to‑day operations, and move his family to the European Alps while running his San Diego portfolio remotely.

You’ll get practical insights on leverage (people, AI, and systems) intentional travel with kids, homeschooling, and why regular nature trips are his non‑negotiable reset to avoid burnout as he designs a life that mixes serious wealth building with serious adventure.
