Student Loans vs. Real Estate: What Doctors Should Do First


Should doctors pay off student loans before investing in real estate? If you're a physician carrying $200K+ in student debt, this question is probably on your mind constantly. In this episode of the Doctors Building Wealth Podcast, Leti and Kenji share why waiting five to ten years to start investing could actually cost you more than your loan interest ever will.
Both Leti and Kenji paid off their student loans before they started investing, and looking back, they'd do it differently. After reaching financial freedom in just three years of real estate investing, they break down the real math and mindset behind this decision.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

How stacking the six ways to earn in real estate can far outpace your student loan interest rate

Why your W-2 as your only income source is actually the riskier financial position

The tax strategy that could put six figures back in your pocket to invest or pay down debt faster

This isn't about being irresponsible with debt. It's about being strategic with your time and recognizing that building assets and managing student loans don't have to be an either/or decision.

The real question isn't "should I pay off my loans first?" It's "how do I start building assets while managing this debt responsibly?"
