The 6 Secrets That Allowed A DACA Dreamer To Unlock Financial Independence | Diego Corzo

In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have a return guest, Diego Corzo who shares his entrepreneurial, investing, and wealth-building journey, the hurdles of being an undocumented citizen, appreciation of properties, reinvesting, and getting momentum, creating a money-machine, and mindset strategy on unlocking financial independence!

Diego Corzo is a 32-year-old DACA Recipient, Forbes-featured Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor and Realtor, and TEDx Speaker from Austin, TX. He was born in Lima, Peru and came to the US at the age of 9.

Diego is a humble man of action that creates a massive success. After college, Diego started working as a software developer in Corporate America and soon discovered that he was destined for more and pursued a career in Real Estate. Today, Diego attains success across real estate investing as well as in his realtor business. In fact, his team is ranked #16 in the US by the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals. He owns 61 properties and multiple million dollar companies.

Since the last interview with him in 2019, there has been lots of change and growth. Being undocumented still a challenge, but it never stops him to achieve great things. Resourcefulness, having strong WHYs, and work ethics have helped him figure it out. He is not just on creating a huge portfolio in real estate, but also elevates other people without any expectation of returns. Diego's goal is to continue to inspire others to reach their version of the American Dream and their true potential.
