The work

How Casey helps

Casey works with people who earn well and want that income working as hard as they do.

01

Turn a paycheck into property

Your W-2 is the best collateral most Americans will ever have. Almost nobody is taught how to use it. Casey teaches you how, without quitting the job first.

02

Keep more of what you earn

High earners hand over a big share of their income every year. Owning real estate changes that math. Casey shows you the door. Your CPA walks you through it.

03

Build owners, not inheritors

Casey isn’t building a portfolio for his kids. He’s building owners. That changes what you buy and how you teach it.

The story

I watched my son get smaller in the mirror.

I spent more than a decade on Shell drilling rigs. Two weeks on, two weeks off. Northern Alberta to the deepwater Gulf. Master’s in petroleum engineering, good paycheck, the whole thing I was supposed to want.

One Sunday night I was driving from Houston to a hotel in Houma, Louisiana, headed offshore for three or four weeks. We had just been through layoffs. The company cut 40 percent. I felt lucky to still have a job. That night I felt anything but lucky.

Two hours into the drive my wife Annie called. She asked how the drive was going, and then she told me what I had missed. When I pulled out, my six year old, Kolt, had chased the car. Two blocks. She caught up to him crying in the street. He was going to do anything to keep me home.

I gripped that steering wheel and I have never forgotten it. Nothing in my life was broken. From the outside everything looked fine. But I was driving away from the thing I was supposedly doing all of it for, over and over, every time I went to work.

The bigger paycheck had not made me free. It had just made me more comfortable inside the same cage.

cassey with family

I did not quit the next morning. That is the part most people get wrong about this.

In 2010 my parents co-signed my first house in Laramie and let me use $10,000 of what was left of my college savings. In 2015 I read Rich Dad Poor Dad. In 2016 Annie talked me into buying a Pure Barre studio in the middle of West Texas, which turned into seven franchises and an MBA on steroids.

In under five years we bought and sold more than 50 properties and 7 franchises. All of it while I was still clocking in at Shell.

I walked out in October 2022, a month before our fourth son was born.

Today we run acquisitions, construction, management, and capital across Wyoming and Montana. None of that is the point. The point is I coach my kids’ teams now. I am at the Tuesday game. That is what the portfolio bought.

Owners, not inheritors

I'm not building a portfolio for my kids. I'm building owners.

cassey
Most parents save for college and hope it covers it. I would rather my boys understand how the thing actually works.
Last winter Kolt’s team was down 19. They clawed all the way back and forced overtime. Somebody missed a free throw, the rebound came out to Kolt, and he caught it and banked it in with about eight seconds left. The gym was electric.
Nine years ago I would have heard about that in a phone call from a hotel room in Louisiana.

Speaking and media

Casey speaks to rooms of working professionals, operators, and families about building something that outlasts the job that funded it.

What he speaks on

Your W-2 is not your prison. The paycheck and banking relationship you already have are the best collateral most Americans get. Almost nobody is taught to use them.
Secure is not the same as safe. Secure is what a W-2 makes you. Safe is what a W-2 plus a portfolio makes you.
Architected risk. He won’t teach you to avoid risk. He’ll teach you to engineer it. Risk you didn’t engineer is the risk that takes you out.
Leaving the patch. Volatility, rotations, and time away from home. Building something that doesn’t depend on the next cycle, from someone who spent more than a decade out there.
The most important investor. The person across the dinner table. You’re not pitching your spouse a deal, you’re inviting them into a life.

The system

The Revive Method

We buy the houses most investors drive past. An investor funds the renovation, our own crew does the work, and the house hits the market finished instead of half done. Investors get paid back first, then we split what is left.

We buy at around half of what the place is worth finished. The market can move against us and the deal still works.

This is Not for everybody.

There are no magic buttons here. If you came looking for one, this is the wrong room.
Every guru online is telling you to quit your job. I am telling you the opposite. Your W-2 is the best collateral most Americans will ever have, and almost nobody is taught how to use it. If your plan is to hand in your notice in ninety days, I am not your guy.
I am also going to tell you about the deal that nearly ended me before I tell you about any of the wins. I lost money in Dallas, and the worst part is the money I lost was not only mine. I had to call those lenders and tell them the truth. Annie and I sold another business we owned to make them whole. Hardest conversation I have ever had, and it is the reason we underwrite the way we do now.
Anybody can teach you from their wins. I would rather teach you from the scars.
