Before Bud Evans ever closed a real estate deal, he spent nearly five decades serving his country and community. A retired Police Officer and US Air Force military officer with a combined 48 years of service, Bud also served as the Mayor of Cinnaminson, New Jersey. His dedication to public service was evident from the start, but retirement didn’t signal the end of his mission. Instead, it marked the beginning of a new chapter rooted in helping others build financial security through real estate.
A Fast Pivot to Real Estate Success
Bud entered the world of real estate in 2019 with a single flip. What began as an experiment quickly turned into a full-fledged career. Realizing the long-term potential of buy-and-hold investing, he shifted strategies and began acquiring rental properties. In just a few years, Bud has accumulated over 50 rental units, completed more than 100 flips, and built a personal portfolio worth over $10 million. He now invests primarily in single-family and small multi-family properties across New Jersey and in the suburbs of Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
Helping Veterans and First Responders Build Wealth
Bud’s journey isn’t just about personal success; it’s about lifting others up along the way. As a seasoned investment coach, he has mentored over 300 individuals, most of whom are veterans and first responders. Drawing from his own experiences and training, Bud teaches financial strategies like the BRRRR method, Commercial Multifamily Analysis, and Infinite Banking. His approach blends practical wisdom with real-world application, making wealth-building accessible to those who’ve served their country and communities.
From Student to Coach
Bud has worked alongside real estate leaders like Tarek El Moussa and David Pere, founder of Military to Millionaire. These collaborations have deepened his knowledge and strengthened his commitment to education. Bud takes pride in simplifying complex financial tools and turning them into repeatable systems that his students can use to generate long-term growth.
A Business Built on Values
At the heart of Bud’s work is a commitment to discipline, frugality, and consistency. Inspired by financial mentors like Dave Ramsey and Robert Kiyosaki, he runs his life and business with a systemized approach. Every part of Bud’s operation reflects his core values, from checklists to standard operating procedures.
He previously served as President of Aim High Properties, LLC, which managed eight diverse companies under its umbrella. Today, Bud continues to grow his low-cost property management firm with a goal of managing over 100 rental units. His focus remains on providing high-quality service at a reasonable price, empowering more people to become successful property owners.
The Man Behind the Mission
Outside of real estate, Bud has been married for 35 years and is a proud father. His personal life reflects the same stability and intention he brings to his work. Looking ahead, his goals are clear: expand his footprint in Ohio, scale his property management operations, eliminate personal debt, and pay off his properties to accelerate equity growth.
Creating a Legacy
Bud Evans is more than a real estate investor. He’s a mentor, a leader, and someone focused on building opportunities for others. From wearing the uniform to managing units, Bud has made it his life’s work to serve others. Through real estate, he continues that mission: one property, one family, and one future at a time.
