Why Bigger Isn’t Better: Alex Pardo’s Wake-Up Call on Scaling Too Fast

In this episode of the Real Estate Ballers Show, Vee Le sits down with seasoned investor Alex Pardo—host of the Flip Empire Show—to unpack a raw and honest journey from building a high-overhead wholesaling operation to simplifying success through self-storage. Alex reveals why chasing "bigger is better" nearly broke his business, how he shifted focus to a leaner, higher-quality strategy in commercial real estate, and why he believes 2–3 solid storage deals can outperform dozens of house flips. If you’re an investor thinking about scale, freedom, or your next big pivot—this is your episode.

Vee, the founder of REBallers, is a franchise owner and a Developmental Agent of HomeVestors “We Buy Ugly Houses”. Today, Vee is actively buying and selling properties in Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and Corpus Christi, TX while growing her rental portfolio of long term and short-term rentals.
