RPM Partnership System · Disposition Partner Elevation Pathway
RE
Co-Collaborator
$750,000 in Deployable Capital. Mid-Six-Figure Wealth —
Without Investing a Dollar of Your Own Capital.
The RE Co-Collaborator is an elevated designation within the RPM Partnership System — a joint venture position held by a Disposition Partner who has built and activated a network of one or more RPM Landlord Partners (RLPs) representing a combined minimum of $750,000 in deployable capital or lines of credit. This is not simply a title. It is a recognized operating role with real deal access, real equity participation, and a documented wealth model that produces mid-six-figure results over a 36-month period.
The Core Distinction: Every other entry vehicle in the RPM system starts with either capital or time. The RE Co-Collaborator pathway starts with network — the rare and undervalued ability to attract, qualify, and activate high-trust capital relationships. The true threshold is not a headcount of partners — it is $750,000 in combined deployable capital. That amount can come from a single Landlord Partner or from many. Once assembled, it unlocks a wealth position most investors never access without spending their own money.
The pathway begins at the RPM Disposition Partner role — the time-and-network based entry vehicle that requires no personal capital and has a gateway standard of two orchestrated strategy sessions between prospective RPM Partners and the Real Estate Collaborator. From that starting point, the Disposition Partner builds toward Co-Collaborator status through a graduated scale of milestones tied to the number of active Landlord Partners they have recruited, qualified, and deployed.
Standard Disposition Partner
Introduce & Orchestrate
Attracts capital partners, runs strategy sessions, connects prospective RPM Partners with the Real Estate Collaborator. 10–20% cash flow and equity participation in deals sourced. No personal capital required. Time and network entry.
RE Co-Collaborator
Build & Deploy
Actively constructs and manages a network of one or more RPM Landlord Partners (RLPs) representing combined $750K in deployable capital — whether that is one partner with substantial capital or five partners averaging $150K each. Participates in deal execution alongside the Real Estate Collaborator. Elevated equity position and direct deal access — not just a referral role.
Real Estate Collaborator
Execute at Scale
The central deal executor of the RPM system. Manages acquisitions, rehab, tenant placement, and portfolio scaling. Cannot be purchased or accelerated — earned through track record. The Co-Collaborator pathway is the direct on-ramp to this designation.
The Self-Dealing Rule — Resolved at Co-Collaborator: As a standard Disposition Partner, the self-dealing rule applies — a DP cannot serve as Disposition Partner for their own passive capital position in a deal. The RE Co-Collaborator designation resolves this entirely. The Co-Collaborator operates in the active deal role alongside the Real Estate Collaborator — they are the architect of the capital stack, not a passive participant within it. Their equity participation is earned through network contribution and deal facilitation, not passive capital deployment.
The Co-Collaborator's job is to identify, qualify, and activate RPM Landlord Partners (RLPs) — the passive capital partners who fund the deals. The search is not for the wealthiest person in the room. It is for a specific person at a specific moment in their life — someone who has worked hard, accumulated something, and is now facing an uncomfortable truth: what they've built is not going to get them where they wanted to go. Not at the pace they're on. Not with the vehicles they've been using. When the Co-Collaborator understands this person precisely, the conversation stops being a pitch and becomes a recognition.
The RPM Landlord Partner in One Sentence: The ideal RLP is likely over 45 — has accumulated some capital but is falling meaningfully short of their desired financial goals, is starting to feel like the window may be closing, believes real estate is the path forward, and has zero desire to learn the active side of investing or navigate the moving parts that come with it.
The Portrait — Who This Person Actually Is
They are probably in their late 40s or 50s. They have been working for two decades or more. They have a 401(k), maybe some savings, possibly home equity — assets that exist but feel insufficient when measured against where they imagined they'd be by now. The retirement timeline they once thought was comfortable now looks tight. They are not in crisis. But the quiet awareness that the math may not work is getting louder.
They believe real estate is the answer. They've seen it work for people they know. They've read about it, watched the videos, maybe even looked at properties. But every time they get close, the same wall appears — the contractors, the tenants, the financing, the market knowledge, the time, the learning curve. Active real estate investing is a second job, and they already have a demanding first one. They do not want to become a real estate operator. They want to benefit from real estate the way a stock investor benefits from a company — without running it.
What they have never found — until now — is a structured, trusted vehicle that lets them participate in real estate at a meaningful level with someone else handling all of the operational work. Not a crowdfunding app. Not a REIT. A real partner — a person they know — with a documented system, in a real deal they can track and understand.
The Entry Point — What "Some Capital" Actually Means: The RPM Landlord Partner does not need $750,000. That figure is the Co-Collaborator's network threshold — the combined total across all partners in the Co-Collaborator's portfolio. An individual Landlord Partner needs a minimum of $40,000 per deal position to cover down payment, rehab, and closing costs on a single-family fix-and-rent property. A typical partner range is $40,000–$150,000 — well within reach for someone who has spent 20+ years building toward financial independence and still has meaningful runway to make a real move.
Where This Person Shows Up — Common Profiles
The psychographic cuts across industries. This is not a single profession — it is a life stage and a mindset. The Co-Collaborator will find this person in many places:
🌅
Pre-Retiree (50s–Early 60s)
The urgency is clearest here. Has home equity, IRA/401(k) funds, or liquid savings — and a growing awareness that their current trajectory falls short of the retirement they planned. CDs and bonds won't close the gap. The stock market feels volatile and impersonal. Real estate, managed by someone they trust, is the move they've been wanting to make for years.
🏥
Healthcare Professional
Doctors, dentists, pharmacists, and nurses in their 40s and 50s with strong income, growing retirement accounts, and almost no free time. They've known for years they should be doing more with their capital. The active side of real estate has always felt out of reach. The RPM LP structure removes that barrier entirely.
💼
Corporate Mid-Career Professional
Managers, directors, and senior contributors who have spent 20+ years building a career and a 401(k) — and are now doing the math on whether it will actually be enough. Disciplined, financially literate, and ready to move capital into a real asset if the right vehicle and the right person appear together.
🏢
Business Owner
Has built a business and generated retained earnings, a business line of credit, or personal capital from their enterprise. Understands ROI and deal structure. Wants to diversify into a real asset — but has no bandwidth to operate another active venture. The passive LP position fits naturally alongside an existing business.
🎓
Attorney, Accountant, or Financial Professional
Analytically oriented, comfortable with contracts and risk, and well aware of what their money should be doing. Often has watched clients build wealth through real estate while wondering why they haven't made the same move. They ask the right questions — and once trust is established, they become long-term partners who refer others.
💻
Technology & Engineering Professional
Earns well, saves consistently, and wants a system they can understand and trust. Comfortable with data and documented return structures. Often has RSUs, brokerage accounts, or a growing cash position that is significantly underutilized. Wants substance, not hype — and wants to understand exactly how their money is working.
The Mindset — What the Right Person Is Thinking
The Fear
"I'm Behind — And I'm Running Out of Time to Fix It"
This is the quiet undercurrent driving the right candidate. They are not panicked — but they are aware. The retirement math doesn't add up the way it once seemed to. The window they thought was wide open is starting to narrow. This awareness is what makes them ready to act. The Co-Collaborator's job is to walk into that moment with a real vehicle, not a pitch.
The Conviction
"Real Estate Is the Answer — I Just Don't Want to Do It Myself"
They believe in real estate. They do not believe they can learn it, operate it, or manage it alongside everything else in their life. The active side — the deals, the contractors, the tenants, the financing complexity — is a full-time education they are not willing to pursue at this stage. They want to participate, not operate. That distinction is the entire RPM Landlord Partner value proposition.
The Frustration
Capital That Isn't Working Hard Enough
Savings accounts. CDs. Money market funds. A 401(k) the market moves more than they do. They know their capital is underperforming relative to what real estate can produce — but every path in has felt too risky, too complex, or too dependent on trusting people they don't know. The Co-Collaborator changes the last part. They are not a stranger.
The Requirement
Transparency — They Need to Know What's Happening
The right Landlord Partner is passive about the work — not about the information. Deal progress, rehab milestones, cash flow reports, tenant placement status — they want to know. They invest confidently when they are kept informed consistently. Proactive, honest communication from the Co-Collaborator is what turns a one-deal partner into a long-term one.
Who They Are NOT: The ideal RPM Landlord Partner is not someone who wants to manage the deal, control day-to-day property decisions, or shift the investment strategy mid-stream — that role belongs to the Real Estate Collaborator. They are not a speculator or someone chasing a quick return. And they are not in financial crisis — the ideal candidate has real capital capacity relative to their situation, a measured risk tolerance, and a long-term orientation. What they need is a trusted operator and a proven system. The Co-Collaborator is the trusted relationship. The RPM system is the proven structure.
The Co-Collaborator designation is not awarded in a single step. It is earned through a graduated four-tier milestone structure that begins the moment a Disposition Partner completes their gateway standard. Each tier unlocks a deeper level of deal participation, equity position, and Co-Collaborator recognition. The full designation is achieved at Tier 4 — when $750,000 in combined verified deployable capital is active. That threshold may be reached with as few as one RLP or as many as five or more — the driver is the capital, not the headcount.
Why Graduated? The graduated structure exists for two reasons. First, it creates early wins — a DP who has secured even one Landlord Partner is already generating equity participation and deal access, not waiting to hit a partner count. Second, it creates momentum. Every tier achieved makes the next one easier to recruit toward because the Co-Collaborator can point to active deals and real outcomes already in motion.
RPM Disposition Partner — Gateway
Complete the standard Disposition Partner gateway: 2 strategy sessions orchestrated between prospective RPM Partners and the Real Estate Collaborator. No capital required. Time and network only. This is the starting point for the Co-Collaborator journey.
Gateway
2 strategy sessions
1 RPM Landlord Partner Activated — $40K Minimum
First Landlord Partner enrolled, Proof of Funds verified, and deal strategy session completed. First deal participation unlocked. The Co-Collaborator begins earning their Disposition Partner payout (10–20%) on the first property acquired with this capital partner. Deal track record begins building.
Capital Gate
$40K verified
2 or More RPM Landlord Partners — $150K Combined
A second Landlord Partner is enrolled and the combined capital base reaches $150K. Portfolio begins compounding — multiple properties in motion, cash flow from earlier deals already active. The Co-Collaborator is now managing a real capital network, not just one relationship. Equity stake expands with each active partnership. Deal coordination responsibilities expand alongside it.
Capital Gate
$150K combined
4 RPM Landlord Partners Active — $600K Combined
The Co-Collaborator is now operating a meaningful capital portfolio alongside the Real Estate Collaborator. Phase I portfolio is substantially built. Phase II (apartment) planning begins. Monthly cash flow from the network is material and growing. At this milestone, Co-Collaborator designation is formally acknowledged and deal coordination role expands.
Capital Gate
$600K combined
$750K Combined Verified Capital — 5 or More RPM Landlord Partners
Full RE Co-Collaborator designation achieved. The $750K threshold — whether reached through 1 high-capacity partner, 5 partners averaging $150K each, or more — triggers the complete wealth model: Phase I single-family portfolio complete and generating cash flow, Phase II Leap Frog into small apartment complex underway via 1031 exchange. Mid-six-figure equity position active. Direct pathway to Real Estate Collaborator designation earned through demonstrated track record.
Full Designation
$750K combined
The 36-Month Window: The full Co-Collaborator wealth model is designed to complete its cycle — Phase I single-family portfolio built and generating cash flow, Phase II Leap Frog acquisition executed — within approximately 36 months from Tier 1 activation. This is not a guarantee of timing; it is the projection built into the RE Wealth model at default assumptions. The Disposition Partner who begins their journey today is looking at a fundamentally different financial position before the end of Year 3.
The RPM Strategic Partner Calculator's RE Wealth tab models the Leap Frog Method — the two-phase investment strategy that takes single-family rental properties in Phase I and rolls their accumulated equity into a small apartment complex in Phase II via a 1031 exchange. What the calculator reveals at five or more Landlord Partners and $750K in combined capital is not incremental improvement. It is a category shift in wealth position — for both the RPM Landlord Partners and the RE Co-Collaborator.
The 50/50 Split — How the Wealth Is Divided: In every RPM deal, the total wealth created — both monthly cash flow and accumulated equity — is split equally between the RPM Landlord Partner (RLP) and the Real Estate Collaborator (REC). Each party earns 50% — the same dollar amount. The stat blocks below show both the RLP's share and the REC's share side by side so the full picture is visible. The RE Co-Collaborator earns 10–20% of deal economics from their role sourcing and managing the capital partner network — paid from within the deal structure alongside REC participation.
The Leap Frog Method — In Brief: Phase I acquires single-family fix-and-rent properties — creating instant equity at closing through below-market purchase, generating monthly cash flow, and building the capital base for Phase II. Phase II rolls the accumulated equity from Phase I properties into a small apartment complex (20–40 doors) via a 1031 tax-deferred exchange, dramatically increasing both monthly cash flow and equity position. The leap is the multiplier — the apartment generates 13× more cash flow per capital dollar than the single-family did.

Real Estate Collaborator Execution
Identifies properties, manages acquisition and rehab, places tenants, and oversees the full portfolio. The central operating role. Works alongside the Co-Collaborator to manage capital partner relationships and reports regularly on portfolio performance. Provides the deal infrastructure the Co-Collaborator and Disposition Partner build their networks around.
Payout Structure
50% cash flow
50% equity share
The RE Co-Collaborator operates in two concurrent domains: network development (attracting, qualifying, and activating Landlord Partners) and deal facilitation (coordinating with the Real Estate Collaborator to ensure capital partners are positioned, informed, and engaged throughout the deal lifecycle). Neither domain ever stops — as Phase I properties are acquired, the Co-Collaborator is simultaneously advancing the next partner relationship toward deployment.
Network Development
-
Attract qualified Landlord Partner candidates through professional network, community relationships, and referrals from existing RPM Partners. Target profile: individuals with $20K–$150K deployable capital or LOC access who are actively seeking passive income opportunities.
-
Conduct initial qualification conversations with prospective Landlord Partners — assess capital availability, investment goals, risk tolerance, and timeline. Determine Proof of Funds eligibility before investing in a full strategy session.
-
Orchestrate strategy sessions between qualified prospective Landlord Partners and the Real Estate Collaborator. Present the Four Seasons of Wealth framework, the Leap Frog Method, and the specific wealth model the prospective partner would participate in.
-
Guide prospective partners through RPM enrollment — Proof of Funds verification, partner agreement execution, and program onboarding. Serve as the primary relationship contact through the process.
-
Maintain active partner pipeline — tracking prospective Landlord Partners across stages (awareness → conversation → strategy session → enrolled) using consistent follow-through cadence. The pipeline never stops moving.
Deal Coordination & Partner Management
-
Coordinate with the Real Estate Collaborator on deal pipeline status, acquisition timelines, and capital deployment sequencing. Ensure active Landlord Partners are matched with appropriate deal opportunities.
-
Maintain regular communication with active Landlord Partners — deal progress updates, rehab milestones, tenant placement status, and monthly cash flow reporting. The Co-Collaborator is the relationship layer between the capital partner and the deal execution team.
-
Present deal summaries and property overviews to prospective and active Landlord Partners. Use the Strategic Partner Calculator RE Wealth tab to demonstrate real projections based on specific deal parameters — purchase price, ARV, investment amount, and projected cash flow.
-
Support Phase II planning and partner re-enrollment — as Phase I properties mature, work with active Landlord Partners on Leap Frog (1031 exchange) readiness and the transition into apartment-scale acquisition. Maintain momentum through the wealth cycle.
-
Track and report network-level portfolio metrics — combined capital deployed, active units, monthly cash flow across all Landlord Partner positions, and overall network equity position. This data informs both partner retention and new partner recruitment conversations.
The One Non-Negotiable: Every activity in the Co-Collaborator role flows from consistent follow-through. The RPM system has the strategy sessions, the deal flow, the calculator, and the methodology. What the Co-Collaborator provides is the human layer — the relationship maintenance, the check-in calls, the proactive communication, the trust-building over time that turns a prospective partner into an active one and keeps an active partner engaged through the full wealth cycle. No tool replaces this. No automation substitutes for it.
The $750,000 combined capital threshold is the RE Co-Collaborator qualification standard — the total verified deployable capital a Disposition Partner must assemble across their RPM Landlord Partner network to earn the elevated Co-Collaborator designation. It is not the minimum required to execute the Leap Frog method. Any individual Landlord Partner can begin Phase I with as little as $40,000 per deal position. The $750K mark is the network-level milestone that demonstrates a Co-Collaborator has built a capital partnership operation of meaningful scale. This threshold can be reached by a single Landlord Partner with substantial capital, or by a network of partners — five at $150K average is the illustrative baseline, but the true driver is always the combined total, not the partner count.
What Counts as an RLP's Deployable Capital: Each Landlord Partner's contribution toward the combined $750K threshold does not have to be liquid savings. An RLP's Proof of Funds can be satisfied by liquid assets or verified lines of credit — a business LOC, a home equity line, or a portfolio-backed credit line all qualify at sufficient available balance. This matters to the Co-Collaborator because it significantly expands who is a viable RLP candidate. Someone with $80K in a HELOC is just as qualified as someone with $80K in a savings account.
| Qualifying Capital Type |
How It Works |
Verification Standard |
| Liquid Savings / Investment Account |
Bank or brokerage account statement showing available balance ready for deployment into a deal position. |
Bank statement — 30 days current |
| Business Line of Credit (BLOC) |
Established business credit line with available balance. Can be used for down payment and rehab costs on investment properties when structured correctly. |
LOC statement — available credit confirmed |
| Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) |
Available equity drawn from primary residence. Common among homeowners with built-up equity who want to put it to work in real estate without liquidating other assets. |
HELOC statement — available draw confirmed |
| Self-Directed IRA or Solo 401(k) |
Retirement funds deployed into real estate via a self-directed structure. Tax-deferred growth while participating in the RPM investment model. |
Account statement + custodian confirmation |
| Portfolio or Securities-Backed LOC |
Line of credit secured by an existing investment portfolio. Allows capital deployment without liquidating positions. Available from most major brokerage institutions. |
LOC statement — available credit confirmed |
For the Co-Collaborator: Knowing which capital types qualify changes the recruitment conversation entirely. The question is no longer "Do you have $40K–$150K in savings?" It becomes "Do you have $40K–$150K in accessible capital — in any form?" A HELOC, a business line, a self-directed IRA — all of it counts. Your job is to know the qualifying vehicles and recognize them in your candidates. The RPM system handles the verification.
The RE Co-Collaborator role delivers value across three dimensions: financial returns (equity and cash flow), professional development (deal education, track record, and direct mentorship from the Real Estate Collaborator), and trajectory (the Co-Collaborator pathway is the documented, structured on-ramp to the Real Estate Collaborator designation). No other role in the RPM system delivers all three simultaneously without personal capital.
Financial Benefit 1
Equity Without Capital
At the $750K capital threshold (five or more Landlord Partners at default assumptions), the LP network builds approximately $700,000 in equity collectively across Phase I and Phase II — and the RE Co-Collaborator participates in deal economics through their Disposition Partner payout structure, without deploying personal capital. The wealth is earned through network contribution: identifying, qualifying, and activating Landlord Partners who fund the deals.
Financial Benefit 2
Compounding Monthly Cash Flow
Cash flow begins at Tier 1 (first Landlord Partner activated) and scales with every property added to the network. At Phase II full deployment with $750K in combined capital and five or more Landlord Partners, the LP network collectively earns approximately $10,000 per month in cash flow — their 50% share of the apartment portfolio's net income, fully passive.
Professional Benefit
Deal Education & Track Record
Every deal the Co-Collaborator facilitates adds to their documented track record within the RPM system. They learn acquisition strategy, deal analysis, rehab oversight, and tenant economics by doing — alongside a Real Estate Collaborator who is executing live. This is the education that qualifies a future REC designation.
Trajectory Benefit
Direct On-Ramp to REC Designation
The Real Estate Collaborator designation cannot be purchased or fast-tracked — it is earned through verified track record. The Co-Collaborator pathway is the most direct, most documented route to that designation in the system. Five partners. Thirty-six months. A portfolio the system can point to. That is what earns a REC designation.
Relationship Benefit
Network of Active Investors
The five Landlord Partners the Co-Collaborator recruits don't disappear after Phase II. They are a recurring, re-deployable capital network — available for future deals, referrals to new partners, and Phase III growth beyond the initial 36-month model. The relationship asset compounds independently of the financial one.
Community Benefit
Wealth Creation for Your Network
The Co-Collaborator is not just building personal wealth — they are building it for every Landlord Partner in their network. Each partner builds $697,930+ in equity through the Leap Frog model (at default assumptions). The Co-Collaborator becomes the person in their community who delivered generational wealth to people they know. That reputation is irreplaceable.
The RPM Partnership Guarantee to Co-Collaborators: The RPM system provides the deal flow, the acquisition infrastructure, the rehab management, the tenant placement, and the reporting framework. The Co-Collaborator never has to find properties, manage contractors, or handle tenant calls. Their role is the capital partnership layer — the most relationship-intensive, most impactful, and highest-leverage position in the deal structure that requires no personal capital investment.

Partners 2–4 Enrolled — Portfolio Grows, Cash Flow Compounds
Leveraging the active deal as social proof, the Co-Collaborator recruits partners 2 through 4. Each new partner accelerates the next — the portfolio is visible, the cash flow is real, and the story is documented. Partners 1–4's properties are acquired, rehabbed, and tenanted. Monthly cash flow from the growing portfolio is actively building. Phase II planning begins with partners who are approaching full Phase I equity accumulation.

LP network combined cash flow: $375/month and growing. Phase II Leap Frog transition planning is now the primary focus.
Months 24–36 · Phase II · The Leap
1031 Exchange into Apartment Complex — The Full Wealth Model Activates
Phase I equity (accumulated across all partners) rolls into small apartment complex acquisition via 1031 exchange. The Leap Frog completes. Monthly cash flow multiplies from $375/mo to $10,000/mo. Total Co-Collaborator equity position reaches approximately $700,000. Annual passive income: $120,000. Co-Collaborator's track record — five enrolled partners, five Phase I acquisitions, one Phase II apartment complex, $750K capital deployed — is the documented foundation for the Real Estate Collaborator designation conversation with the founder.
The Destination: By the end of Month 36, the RE Co-Collaborator has built a wealth position that most people spend decades chasing — mid-six-figure equity, five figures in monthly passive income, and a documented track record that puts them in serious conversation for the Real Estate Collaborator designation. All of it built through relationships, follow-through, and a system that did the deal execution work. No personal capital required to start. No properties to manage. No tenants to call.
The RPM Partnership System's deal execution model depends on a steady, qualified capital partner pipeline. Without Landlord Partners, there are no Phase I acquisitions. Without Phase I acquisitions, there is no Phase II. Without Phase II, the Leap Frog remains a theory on a calculator instead of a wealth outcome for the people the program serves. The RE Co-Collaborator is the specific role in the system designed to solve this problem at scale.
The System's Need: One Real Estate Collaborator working alone can manage a limited number of capital partner relationships. The Co-Collaborator multiplies that capacity — bringing in five qualified partners, managing those relationships, and allowing the REC to stay focused on deal execution. This is not a supporting role. It is a force-multiplier for the entire investment infrastructure.
Value to the REC
Qualified Capital, Pre-Vetted
Every Landlord Partner the Co-Collaborator delivers has already been through qualification conversations, Proof of Funds verification, and a strategy session. The REC receives pre-qualified, motivated capital partners — not cold introductions. Deal execution quality and capital certainty both improve.
Value to Landlord Partners
A Trusted Relationship Layer
Capital partners are not writing checks to a system — they are writing checks to a person they trust. The Co-Collaborator is that person. Landlord Partner retention, satisfaction, and willingness to deploy additional capital in Phase II all depend on the quality of this relationship.
Value to the Program
Scalable Deal Flow Infrastructure
As the RPM system grows, Co-Collaborators become the distributed capital-sourcing network that allows the program to operate across multiple markets and deal types simultaneously. Each Co-Collaborator is a self-contained capital activation unit — operating independently, compounding collectively.

The RE Co-Collaborator offer is available exclusively to RPM Disposition Partners who are ready to move from standard Disposition Partner activity into a structured, milestone-based elevation pathway toward the full five-partner Co-Collaborator designation. The offer is not for everyone who completes the DP gateway — it is for the Disposition Partner who recognizes that their network is their unfair advantage and who is ready to build a structured wealth vehicle from it.
The Offer — In Full
RPM Disposition Partners are eligible for elevation to RE Co-Collaborator on a graduated four-tier scale — beginning at the activation of the first qualified Landlord Partner and completing when $750,000 in combined verified deployable capital is active. That threshold may be reached by one Landlord Partner, by five, or by more — the capital total is what triggers the designation, not a specific partner count.

Qualification Check
Are You Ready for This Conversation?
If you can answer yes to these three questions, the Co-Collaborator strategy session is the right next step:
1. Do you currently have at least 3 people in your network you believe have $20K–$150K available or accessible?
2. Are you willing to learn and present the Leap Frog wealth model with confidence?
3. Are you prepared to commit to consistent follow-through across a 12–36 month development timeline?
Next Step
Request a Co-Collaborator Strategy Session
The first step is a direct strategy session with the Real Estate Collaborator — not a pitch, a planning conversation. Together, you will:
→ Review your current network and identify your top 3–5 Landlord Partner candidates
→ Walk through the RE Wealth calculator together with real numbers
→ Map your personal 36-month graduated pathway to full designation
→ Establish your Tier 1 activation target and timeline
Contact [email protected] to request your session.
The Wealth Position That's Available: $750,000 in combined deployable capital — from one RPM Landlord Partner or five or more. Thirty-six months. The RE Wealth calculator is clear on what that produces for the LP network: mid-six-figure equity (their 50% share), five-figure monthly passive income, and a fully managed portfolio. And for the Co-Collaborator who built it: deal participation, a documented track record, and a direct pathway to Real Estate Collaborator designation — all without a single dollar of personal capital invested. The vehicle is here. The question is whether you have the network and the follow-through to drive it.
