From Engineer to $2.1B in Real Estate: The Wealth Elevator with Lane Kawaoka
Description
In this episode of 9–5 Exit Plan, I sit down with real estate investor, author, and former engineer Lane Kawaoka.
Lane’s journey began with a traditional engineering career and his first rental property investment in 2009. Over time, he transitioned from individual rental properties into larger real estate syndications and alternative investments, eventually becoming involved with more than 10,000 rental units representing over $2.1 billion in real estate.

We discuss passive real estate investing, cash-flow investing, tax strategies, infinite banking, 401(k) strategy, evaluating real estate opportunities, and why Lane believes investors should think beyond the traditional Wall Street approach.
Most importantly, we explore the difference between earning money and actually building wealth — and how professionals can begin turning their income into assets that create greater freedom over time.
If you’re interested in real estate, passive income, investing, or escaping the cycle of trading your time for money, this conversation is packed with practical insights.
