Comfort To Courage


Mar 9, 2026

Feeling overwhelmed in your real estate business? If your deals are slowing down, your inbox is overflowing, and you feel like the bottleneck in your own company… you’re not alone. In this episode, Jen Josey sits down with real estate entrepreneur and outsourcing expert Bob Lachance to reveal how smart investors eliminate bottlenecks, reclaim their time, and scale their businesses using virtual assistants and automation.

Bob Lachance has completed 1,500+ real estate transactions and built multiple companies—including REVA Global, a virtual assistant service designed specifically for real estate investors. In this conversation, he shares the exact systems investors use to delegate marketing, lead generation, transaction coordination, and operations so they can focus on what actually drives revenue. From working phones and door knocking to building automated marketing systems and trained VA teams, Bob breaks down how outsourcing can transform a stressed-out solopreneur into a scalable real estate business owner.

If you're a real estate investor, wholesaler, landlord, fix-and-flipper, or short-term rental host who feels stuck doing everything yourself, this episode will show you how to break free. You’ll learn what tasks to outsource first, how virtual assistants actually work in real estate businesses, and why automation + delegation is the key to building a business that grows without burning you out.
