Welcome back to another enlightening episode of The Physicians and Properties Podcast with your host, Dr. Alex Schloe.

💡 What if you could build long-term wealth and freedom through real estate—without sacrificing your calling as a physician or taking on another full-time job?

In today’s episode, Alex is joined by Clint Harris, professional real estate investor, capital raiser at Nomad Capital, founder of Going Coastal Property Management, and host of the Truly Passive Income podcast. Clint has raised over $150M in stabilized assets and brings a rare blend of experience from medical device sales, active real estate operations, and large-scale passive syndications.

Clint shares his journey from early real estate mistakes to scaling Airbnbs, building a property management company, and ultimately focusing on self-storage conversions—turning underutilized big-box buildings into high-performing, cash-flowing assets through forced appreciation. Throughout the conversation, Clint and Alex explore how physicians can use syndication and passive investing as powerful tools to regain time, clarity, and independence of purpose.

🔥 What you’ll learn:

• From Medical Sales to Real Estate Freedom: How Clint transitioned from a demanding medical sales career into full-time real estate investing while preserving relationships and purpose.
• The Golden Handcuffs Problem: Why lifestyle creep traps many high-income physicians—and how real estate can help break the cycle.
• The 3 Pillars of Real Estate Success: Why every deal requires time, experience, and money, and how physicians can win by partnering when they don’t have all three.
• Self-Storage Conversion Strategy: How buying $2–3M vacant buildings and investing another $2–3M can create stabilized assets worth $9–17M through NOI-based valuation.
• Syndications Explained for Physicians: Why most commercial real estate is owned through syndications—and how passive investing lets your capital work while you’re in the hospital.
• Operator Due Diligence: What to look for in sponsors, why communication matters most when things go wrong, and how recent market stress revealed who was truly prepared.
• Money as Stored Life Energy: A powerful reframe on capital, responsibility, and why investing should align with your family’s goals, values, and long-term vision.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Passive investing can be an ideal lane for physicians with capital but limited time.
• Lifestyle creep—not income—is often the biggest barrier to freedom.
• Self-storage conversions create value by changing how assets are valued, not just by improving buildings.
• In syndications, the operator matters more than the deal on paper.
• Define your life goals first—then choose investments that support them.
• Money is stored life energy and should be stewarded with intention and integrity.
• True wealth is about independence of purpose: going where you want, when you want, and doing what matters most.
