Scaling from Houses to Apartments: Playing Real Estate Like Monopoly

How do you go from flipping houses to owning over 1,000+ units across multiple states? At this month’s meetup, we’re bringing in Todd Dexheimer to share exactly how he did it.

Todd went from being a Minnesota schoolteacher to becoming a full-time real estate investor, syndicator, and educator. He started with single-family flips and steadily scaled into large multifamily and commercial real estate. Today, as the founder of Venture D Properties, he focuses on value-add multifamily, commercial, and impact-driven investing.

In this session, Todd will break down:

• How to transition from small properties into apartments and commercial real estate.
• Syndication strategies and building partnerships that fuel scale.
• Finding deals in competitive markets (even out of state).
• The mindset shifts required to grow like Monopoly — trading up from houses into hotels.
• Lessons learned from scaling to over 1,000 units while staying true to impact-focused investing.

This is more than a presentation — it’s a chance to connect with other active and aspiring investors in the Twin Cities. Bring your questions, share your experiences, and expand your network with people serious about building wealth through real estate.

Whether you’re just getting started or already own rentals, you’ll walk away with actionable strategies to move toward apartments, syndication, and scaling your portfolio like Monopoly.
