Working a corporate job and finding time for passive investing. How to get started

Roman brings two decades of experience in corporate finance, global risk management, and international banking—most recently at Citibank. Despite long days, worldwide time zones, and a high-pressure workload, he learned how to carve out the time to educate himself, invest strategically, and build passive income through real estate.

In this conversation, Roman shares:
• What his journey looked like as a first-generation immigrant navigating a global career
• How he discovered passive real estate investing
• What resources helped him get started (including YouTube, podcasts, and local meetups)
• How he found his first operators and vetted investment opportunities
• Why tax advantages in the U.S. were a major eye-opener
• How he evaluates deals today and what he looks for in operators
• His honest take on the current real estate market, interest rates, and timelines
• Why he continues diversifying into both passive and active opportunities
