Today we’re bringing on a guest who proves that numbers don’t just tell a story — they build empires. Please welcome Ian Hogan — full-time engineer, licensed real estate agent, data-driven investor, and the mastermind behind Engineer Real Estate.
Ian carved his path at the intersection of renovation, analytics, and long-term wealth building. His journey began with a bold first move most beginners would never dare attempt — purchasing and gut-renovating a 4-unit property in Worcester, MA using a 203k loan. 💪🔨 That project launched a full-blown strategy of sweat equity and value-add investing that today powers a growing, self-managed portfolio of 10 rental units.
But here’s where Ian really sets himself apart: when traditional real estate data fell short, he built his own solution. 🚀 Using his engineering mindset, he created a custom software platform to collect, reformat, and visualize market trends — giving him and other investors the clarity needed for smarter, faster decisions.
On this episode, Ian unpacks:
🏗️ Lessons learned from gut-renovations and value-add investing
📊 How data and analytics can supercharge real estate strategy
💡 DIY investing hacks for cash flow and long-term flexibility
🔑 His vision of creating financial freedom through systems, not guesswork
Ian has already been featured on top shows like KCreatingwealth, Invest2FI, and Froggy Five Podcast — and now he’s here on the WHY NOT? Real Estate Podcast to share his blueprint for combining brains, grit, and data to accelerate financial freedom.
When he’s not crunching numbers or renovating rentals, you might just find him wrenching under the hood of his classic 1988 Volvo 240 🚗🔧 — proving that whether it’s engines or empires, Ian builds from the ground up.
This is an episode packed with insights for anyone ready to level up their investing game through data, discipline, and determination. Don’t miss it!
