He hunted deals, swung hammers, managed tenants, and even camped out in his properties during renovations. The hands-on hustle taught him a ton—but it also burned him out. By 2010, Kirk had sold off his portfolio and hit pause on real estate. Fast forward a few years… Kirk discovered Vreeland Capital and turnkey investing. That’s when everything changed. Today, as a Vreeland Capital client, Kirk owns 19 rental properties and has turned an initial $451K into $1.2M in returns—a 276% gain—all while focusing on his CPA career and his family.
