From 50 to 270 Deals: How Virtual Assistants Did It

In this latest episode of the Lessons from Real Estate Investors Podcast with Jack Hoss, REVA Global CEO Bob Lachance shares a powerful discussion on scaling a real estate business through systems, accountability, and virtual assistants. Bob shares his journey from professional hockey player to successful real estate investor and founder of REVA Global.

Bob explains how his first fix-and-flip deal earned him $32,000 but also revealed the dangers of running a business without systems, processes, or a team. He discusses how burnout and inconsistent marketing became early challenges that pushed him to build a more scalable business model.

The episode also highlights the importance of accountability in real estate investing. While coaching students through Fortune Builders, Bob realized many aspiring investors struggled not because of lack of knowledge, but because they failed to take consistent action. This eventually led him to discover virtual assistants and launch REVA Global in 2014.
