About Earn With Homes
Full-time real estate investors helping families become homeowners while helping investors earn predictable income.
Our Mission
We buy affordable, livable homes in working-class neighborhoods and sell them to families on seller financing. The families get a fixed monthly payment that's often less than market rent and a real path to homeownership. Our lending partners get secured, predictable monthly income backed by the property itself.
Every deal we do improves a neighborhood, creates a homeowner, and generates income for an investor. That's the model.

Dan Wilson
Dan is a full-time real estate investor and former Air Force officer with 14 years of service. He grew up building homes with his dad and cleaning rental properties with his grandpa. He bought his first rental in his early twenties while still on active duty. Today he's been involved in over 100 real estate transactions and owns 24 rental properties focused on affordable housing in the Midwest.
Three years ago Dan shifted from wholesaling and flipping to a model built around structure and predictability: buying affordable homes, selling them on seller financing, and creating secured notes that produce steady monthly income. He runs the operation remotely from his home base while Jon manages day-to-day operations on the ground in Ohio.
