About Me

Hey there! I’m Brandon Turner.

Most know me through being the past host of The BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast, the #1 real estate investing podcast with over 100 million downloads. I left that show some time ago and started a new one (The Better Life Podcast with Brandon Turner) - as well as The BetterLife Tribe, Open Door Capital, and More.

But there’s more to know than that! 

  • I’m “awkward tall” (6’5”)

  • I have an amazing wife Heather, a beautiful daughter Rosie, and a wild man Wilder

  • I read 50-75 books a year, about half physical, 1/4 kindle, and 1/4 audible

  • I am self-conscious of my voice and weight. Ironically - I use my voice and image to talk to millions every month. God clearly has a sense of humor!

  • I love Jesus and try to live my life in such a way to hear Him someday say, “Well done, good and faithful servant”

And, of course, I LOVE real estate. More importantly, I love the freedom that investing in real estate brings. 

Growing up, I used to lay awake in bed waiting for my dad to come home from work and kiss me goodnight. Don’t get me wrong - I loved my dad and he worked hard so I could have a great life. But I swore that I would be around for my kids and wouldn’t miss out on the valuable time with them because I was tied to a desk.

Real estate brought me that freedom. My goal is to help others find that freedom - through real estate investing education and providing passive investment opportunities with Open Door Capital.

Oh, and every week I send out a free text-letter, a newsletter via text. It contains lessons I’m learning, discussion around books I’m reading, upcoming events, and more. You should probably be on that list.
