Founder of First Check Boot Camp
Brandon Jarvela
US Navy Vet to Real Estate Entrepreneur
I went from serving in the US Navy to living out of my car—no degree, no real estate experience, and barely any money. My first real estate check? $12,000. Within six months, I quit my full-time engineering job working 60–70 hours a week. By year one, we cleared $300K. Year two, $500K. Now, in 2025, we’re building toward our first $4 million year.
Over $20.2M in real estate transactions completed since 2021
Over a decade of entrepreneurial experience
worked with over 600+ students
About Brandon Jarvela
I’m a U.S. Navy Veteran turned 8-figure real estate investor with over a decade of entrepreneurial experience. After leaving the Navy, I found myself broke, living out of my car, and with no degree, license, or clear direction. Everything changed when I closed my first real estate deal and earned a $12,000 check.
In just six months, I quit my job. Within a year, I built a $300K real estate business. By year two, I hit $500K, and today, my company is on track for over $4M annually.
I created the First Check Boot Camp to help others fast track their own success, teaching them how to earn $20K to $50K a month in just 8 weeks, without quitting their jobs, taking on huge risks, or wasting years trying to figure it out alone.
Since 2021, I’ve completed over $20.2M in real estate transactions and helped more than 600 students across the U.S. and internationally land their first checks and build consistent monthly income. I’m known for a no excuses coaching style that delivers real results and simplifies complex strategies into clear, actionable steps.

What Makes First Check Boot Camp Different?
Most "real estate courses" overwhelm you with theory, outdated tactics, or endless videos. First Check Boot Camp is different:
- Built for busy people: Designed for individuals with jobs, families, and zero free time. No 3-hour webinars or 300-page manuals. Every step is broken into simple, bite-sized actions you can execute nights & weekends.
- Designed to get you PAID—fast: No months of "warming you up." By Week 2, you'll be talking to sellers and making offers, positioning you to collect your first check.
- Works without money, credit, or a license: You don’t need to risk savings or get a real estate license. The program provides plug-and-play contracts, scripts, and strategies that work without these hurdles.
- More than just content—it's coaching: With 2 live Zoom calls every week (Q&A + call reviews), Brandon and his team guide you through every challenge in real time. You’re not just buying a course—you’re getting a coach in your corner.
- It’s proven: Hundreds of students—from full-time nurses to truck drivers to stay-at-home parents—have already used this system to achieve $20K–$50K months.
