In this episode of The Success in Motion Podcast, guest host Michael Bishop sits down with John Wijtenburg, a seasoned real estate consultant and asset manager who made a major pivot from hotel investing to helping real estate entrepreneurs scale smarter. John shares his evolution from a Fannie Mae economist to building multi-million dollar hotel portfolios, and ultimately to launching his own consulting venture designed to solve a growing gap in the industry: scaling systems.

John unpacks the hidden bottlenecks that real estate operators face when trying to grow—from becoming the ceiling of their own business to making emotionally driven deal decisions. He introduces his proprietary framework, the CRE Growth Operating System, and reveals how execution and self-selected accountability are game changers for scaling any real estate business.

Listeners will learn:

• The most common systems failures holding back real estate entrepreneurs

• How to shift from being “in the weeds” to visionary leadership

• Why remote teams and fractional roles can fuel growth

• The importance of clarity, execution, and structured accountability in real estate operations

• What to consider before jumping into "passive income" ventures
