Real Estate Fund Manager | Simplifying Hands-Free Returns with Risk-Mitigated Real Estate Investments | Champion of Lifestyle Freedom for High-Income Professionals 🌴 Costa Rica

You’re successful on paper, but you want your capital working harder than your calendar.

You’re drawn to real estate for its stability and wealth-building power, but you have zero interest in tenants, toilets, or time-intensive management.

You value:
• Capital preservation
• Predictable cash flow
• Smarter diversification beyond public markets
• A clear path to work-optionality - not just more income

That’s where I come in.

I’ve spent 20+ years across multifamily real estate, private lending, and limited partnerships, first as an operator, then as an LP, and now as a fund manager.

After scaling my own income and managing a family multifamily portfolio, I learned a defining lesson:

Wealth isn’t about how much you earn.
It’s about how efficiently your capital works (and how well the downside is protected).

I founded Hylee Capital, a private investment firm helping high-income professionals access vetted, institutionally-backed real estate and alternative investments designed for:

• Hands-free cash flow
• Risk-mitigated growth
• Long-term capital preservation
• Strategic diversification outside the public markets

I review dozens of private investments each year and only advance a small handful that meet my underwriting standards.

I focus on stacking durable, well-underwritten deals over time (not chasing yield or headlines).

Today, my family and I live in coastal Costa Rica, prioritizing time, flexibility, and presence with our three young children.


What I Offer

• Access to top-tier private real estate and alternative investments in prime U.S. markets
• A clear, transparent framework for building hands-off income and long-term wealth
• Direct insight from my experience as both an LP and a fund manager

If you’re a high-income professional who wants your money working harder (without taking on unnecessary risk or another job) we should connect.

I flew 1,800 miles to meet our partners in person.
(We've already invested $2M+ with them)

When I first connected with this team, I knew we'd found something special.

Fast forward to today - we're doubling down on our investment because the fundamentals are just that strong.

→ 200+ unit apartment buildings 
→ Bought below what previous owners paid 
→ Strong cash flow with clear operational upside

And the best part? Our investors don't have to lift a finger.

1. We target distressed or lender-driven deals with downside protection built in.
2. Our partners handle everything in-house: property management and renovations.
3. Investors get 21%+ projected IRR with 8% preferred returns in 3 years - completely hands-off.

This is how high-income professionals build real wealth in real estate.

Grateful to partner with top-tier operators and help investors access institutional-grade deals without the complexity.

Comment "ACCESS" below, and I'll send you the link to my private masterclass on LP investing.

I built a $400K/year career by 29.
1 years later, I walked away from it. 

used to work seven days a week.
5 espressos a day. 

Skipping meals because eating felt "unproductive." 
Drinking at night just to take the edge off.

I was making over $400,000 a year.
And I felt empty.

3 years ago, we left.
Walked away from the career, the status, the security. 

Moved our family to Costa Rica.

Not because it was trendy. 

Because I wanted my kids to grow up outside. 
(My daughter literally went to school barefoot this week)

I wanted them to experience the beauty of another culture. Eating fresh food. Watching sunsets instead of screens.

I lost my dad when I was 16.

I promised myself something back then: One day, I'll make sure to have enough time for my kids - I refuse to miss it. 

I'll make my work fit into my family (..and imperfectly excel at both!)

So we took a bet.
I gave up the awards, the income, the certainty. Went from closing deals to cutting blueberries in half for three kids. 

Then slowly built something new and highly successful that fit the dream lifestyle, not because we had to do what was available in the city.

Here's what most people miss: I didn't burn everything down.

We built leverage first.
1. Rental income helped cover essentials. 
2. Equity from assets helped us buy a new home. 
3. Cash from asset sales sustained the transition.

Creating a life that revolves around freedom isn't reckless: it's engineered.

If you're already successful, you don't need to escape your life.

You just need better options.


If you want to learn how to generate consistent cash flow from commercial real estate without the headaches of property management, comment FREEDOM and I'll send you the masterclass.

Most LPs never see the properties they invest in.
I just visited 5 of ours in 48 hours.

Here's why that matters to your money.

I left my small surf town in Costa Rica 4 days ago.

Three flights later, I was on the ground in Dallas, then Salt Lake City - walking properties, meeting operators, reviewing renovation timelines, digging into property management systems.

From the outside, being an LP in a real estate deal is completely hands-off.
And it is (for you).

But someone still needs to be on the ground.

When I walk units under renovation, sit across from asset managers, and review occupancy trends in real time, the deal becomes very tangible.

That's where risk gets evaluated and execution gets verified. It's where your $200K–$500K investment stops being a spreadsheet and becomes a living, breathing asset.

You're busy building companies, leading teams, performing surgeries, closing enterprise deals.

You don't have time to fly across the country and audit operations.
That's my job.

Because this isn't just money. It's your future retirement, path to work-optionality, peace of mind, and your family's security. 

And I don't take that lightly.

Hands-off for you doesn't mean hands-off for me.
It means I go deeper so you can stay focused on what you do best.

Day 2 at the Best Ever Conference in Salt Lake City. If you're here, let's connect - comment BEC or DM me.

Before you invest another $100K in 2026, read this.

If you're earning $300K–$800K a year and still feel like your money isn't pulling its weight, this is for you.

I call it the 3-Step Hands-Off Real Estate System. 
(not for beginners - for professionals who are done leaving returns on the table)

Step 1: stop being the operator. Start being the owner. 
Step 2: prioritize cash flow and appreciation over speculation. 
Step 3: demand risk mitigation before you ever chase upside.

Here's the cycle that actually builds wealth:

Your income funds the deal → the deal funds your lifestyle → your lifestyle buys back your time.

Simple. 

But most high-income professionals never get there because they're stuck in the same trap: 

too much in stocks, too much idle cash earning 4–5%, and not nearly enough in tax-advantaged, cash-flowing assets.

That gap is costing them years, not just dollars.

The shift I'm seeing among the smartest investors right now looks like this:
- make money work harder
- trust operators who eat, sleep, and breathe this stuff
- focus on assets that pay you while they grow, and stop taking on risk you don't need to take.

This is how you build multiple income streams without managing tenants, fielding midnight calls, or dealing with a single toilet.

This is how you protect $200K–$500K allocations with disciplined underwriting and real due diligence.

This is how income becomes long-term security, not just a number on a pay stub.

A year from now, you'll look back at 2026 as the year you stopped playing defense with your money.

Raise $10,000,000 in real estate… for my dad.

He always wanted me to be a doctor or a lawyer. 

Something stable, respectable, secure. 
(the first-gen immigrant dream for their kids)

Instead, I chose entrepreneurship and real estate like him. 
Thanks, Dad.

I've been in the industry for over 20 years, but 3 years ago, I decided to build something of my own.

(I'll be honest, it was probably crazy)

Three kids under five. A newborn waking up at 1 a.m., taking investor calls between school runs.

And a vision to build a business that allowed us to live and work abroad on our terms.

No institutional brand, just experience, 
and the work ethic my dad drilled into me.

Months later, I was having serious conversations with investors. Then one person I met online said yes.

That first yes became momentum. And momentum (when you protect it) becomes trust.

Trust turned into over $10M placed into vetted, hands-off real estate opportunities.

Not because I chased the hottest deal, but because I stayed boring.

1. Proper diligence. 
2. Strong operator relationships. 
3. And an obsession with risk-mitigating capital.

Here's what I've learned about the people I work with:

They don't need more risk... they want better access, smarter filtering, real diversification, and their weekends back.

Busy executives, business owners, and professionals with serious capital to deploy definitely don't need another job...

They need someone who already did the work.

That's what I built.

Start before you feel ready. 
Build before it's convenient. 
Do the work when no one's watching.

Make your people proud. 

PS: If you're a busy executive or business owner looking to diversify into hands-off, tax-efficient real estate, I'm hosting a live webinar this Friday.

I'll break down exactly how sophisticated investors are accessing institutional-quality deals without managing properties themselves.

Comment "WEBINAR" or DM me and I'll send the link.

Projected IRR is the last thing I look at in a private deal.

Structure is the first.

Not the marketing deck.
Not the polished underwriting model.
Not the headline returns.

Structure determines:

1. Who gets paid first
2. How risk is shared
3. What happens when things don’t go perfectly
4. How cash flow is distributed
5. How upside is split

Returns matter.

But structure determines whether those returns are actually achievable.

Most high-income professionals focus on returns; the disciplined ones focus on mechanics.

Passive real estate can be a powerful tool, and it can also be misunderstood.
(And it’s not for everyone)

That’s why on February 27 at 1 PM CST, I’m hosting a live session:

How Passive Real Estate Investing Works

Literally no deal pitch.

Just a clear breakdown of how these investments are actually structured and what I review before committing capital.

If you’re evaluating private opportunities, you should understand this first.
