Podcast appearances and mentions of Chris Larsen

In this episode, I sit down with Chris Larsen, founder of Next-Level Income and someone with over 20 years and nearly three decades in real estate. What I love about Chris's story is where it started: he bought his first rental property at age 21, while he was still a college student at Virginia Tech studying biomechanical engineering. From there he has been involved in around $2 billion in acquisitions across development, private lending, distressed debt, commercial offices, and multifamily syndication. Before real estate, Chris was chasing a very different dream. He was a competitive cyclist with hopes of going pro, until the sudden loss of his best friend at a bike race forced him to ask what he was really doing it all for. That moment set him on a search for financial freedom, and after five years of reading everything he could get his hands on, he landed on real estate as his path. He walks us through the mindset shift from day trading and stress to building something with control, leverage, income, and long term certainty. We get practical about why now is a great time for W-2 earners to move off the sidelines. Chris shares the story of his very first deal, $3,000 down on a townhouse that he house hacked with two roommates, and how a 1031 exchange years later turned that tiny investment into a seven figure return. He is a big believer that real estate is a get rich slow game, and he makes the case for doing even one creative deal a year and letting time, rents, and inflation do the heavy lifting. We also dig into where we are in the real estate cycle. Chris breaks down the roughly 18.5 year cycle, why he thinks we are in the second half where it pays to be the bank, and why keeping some dry powder on the sidelines makes sense right now. Toward the end he shares the two free tools his team built, an interactive book and a Chris Larsen AI coaching assistant, for anyone who wants to go deeper. If you have been waiting for a sign to start building passive income, this conversation is it.   Key Talking Points of the Episode 00:00  Introduction and the three paydays philosophy 00:23  Meet Chris Larsen: 20+ years and roughly $2 billion in acquisitions 00:52  Buying his first rental at 21 as a college student 02:32  Why he wrote his latest book to help people engineer freedom 03:04  Starting a nonprofit after Hurricane Helene hit Asheville 03:52  The cyclist dream and why pro cycling rarely pays 04:51  Losing his best friend at a bike race and the emptiness that followed 06:35  The discipline and structure cycling taught him 06:51  Deciding he wanted to live life on his own terms 07:48  From day trading stress to realizing that is not investing 08:46  Why real estate: control, leverage, income, and depreciation 09:37  The 15 year plan to reach ten grand a month in income 09:52  Why creative deals beat the old way of getting paid once 12:05  What Chris is working on now and his latest book 12:48  Moving from residential to commercial and multifamily 14:13  Why now is a great time for W-2 earners to get in 15:20  Real estate as a get rich slow game and the one deal a year approach 16:02  The $3,000 first deal that became a seven figure return through a 1031 17:55  The 18.5 year real estate cycle explained 20:09  Why it is a good time to be the bank 20:31  Keeping cash on the sidelines and staying selective 21:43  The two free tools: the interactive book and Chris Larsen AI 22:42  How high income earners can start investing passively 23:20  Why finding someone who made the mistake first shortens your curve   Quotables "Real estate is a get rich slow game."

On Episode 284 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, host Chris Larsen sits down with three respected Lake Ontario captains during the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo: Bob Songin from Reel Excitement Charters, Brian Garrett from Tall Tails Sportfishing, and Nick Glosser from Synergy Sportfishing. The three captains were instructors at the renowned LOTSA Salmon School and discuss what anglers can realistically expect to learn from advanced salmon trolling education, how each captain approaches fishing differently, and why understanding why fish bite matters more than simply copying tackle setups. This episode dives deep into: Fighting boat traffic on the Niagara Bar Understanding water movement and current changes Why presentation matters more than specific lures Electronics advancements and how technology has changed salmon fishing Decision-making during tournaments and charter trips Spring vs staging salmon behavior across Lake Ontario ports Simplifying trolling spreads for more consistent bites Teaching new anglers and introducing kids to the fishery The importance of LOTSA, ELOSTA, and supporting Great Lakes fishing organizations You'll also hear memorable charter stories, tournament strategy discussions, and practical advice on adapting to changing conditions on Lake Ontario. Whether you troll the western basin, fish the Salmon River staging run, or are just getting started in Great Lakes salmon fishing, this conversation is packed with insights from captains who spend hundreds of days on the water every season.

On Episode 208 of the Fish House Nation Podcast presented by Catch Cover, co-hosts Chris Larsen and Al Escobedo break down what to do when the fish just aren't biting in your wheelhouse. From making subtle location adjustments to changing presentations, lure profiles, colors, noise, and bait positioning, the guys share practical strategies to turn a slow day on the ice into a productive one. Chris and Al discuss how electronics, underwater cameras, tip-ups, and sonar can help you confirm whether you're actually on fish, while also explaining when too much technology—or even too much light and noise inside the fish house—might actually hurt your bite. They also dive into the importance of scouting, hole placement, generator noise, live sonar pressure, and how small changes like getting baits higher in the water column can trigger more strikes. If you've ever set up on what looked like the perfect spot only to struggle getting bites, this episode is packed with real-world ice fishing adjustments that can help salvage your next trip and put more fish on the ice.

In Episode 283 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast presented by Fish Hawk Electronics, host Chris Larsen talks with Chip Cartwright and CJ Baker of Silver Streak Spoons about what really makes trolling spoons effective for salmon and trout across the Great Lakes. Recorded at the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo, this conversation covers real-world insights from Lake Michigan fishing out of Ludington, including how changing water clarity, bait size, and modern electronics are shaping today's salmon programs. Chip and CJ explain why profile often matters more than color, how spoon size should change throughout the season, and what anglers should know about the growing popularity of salmon jigging with live sonar. They also break down practical trolling speeds, lead lengths behind the ball, and how anglers can confidently choose productive spoon patterns without overcomplicating their spread. You'll also hear behind-the-scenes stories about how classic Silver Streak colors get their names, how new patterns are tested on the water, and why matching your presentation to your goals—numbers vs. trophy fish—changes everything. If you troll for salmon or trout on Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, or any Great Lakes port, this episode will help you fine-tune your spoon program and make smarter lure choices all season long.

In this episode of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast presented by Fish Hawk Electronics, host Chris Larsen sits down at the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo with Chris Legard from the New York DEC and Captain Rob Westcott of Legacy Sportfishing for an in-depth conversation about the current state—and future—of Lake Ontario salmon fishing. They break down what anglers are seeing on the water right now and how it connects to the science behind the fishery. Topics include the rebound of the alewife population, what recent die-offs really mean, and how bait availability continues to shape salmon growth and catch rates across the lake. Chris Legard explains the ongoing genetic parentage-based tagging program that helps determine how many Chinook salmon are naturally reproduced versus hatchery-stocked fish—and why that information matters when balancing predator and prey populations in Lake Ontario. The discussion also covers how anglers are contributing to this effort through citizen-science sampling programs across the lake. The conversation dives into the growing role of Atlantic salmon, which are native to Lake Ontario and seeing improved returns after changes to stocking strategy and locations. Meanwhile, anglers are also noticing stronger coho salmon fishing, especially in the western basin—and the DEC shares why natural reproduction may be playing a bigger role than many people realize. Chris and Rob also address a question many anglers have been asking: Where are the 30-pound Chinook salmon? Learn how salmon abundance, prey availability, and long-term management decisions influence fish size trends—and why today's fishery still ranks among the strongest in decades. Additional topics include: Chinook salmon catch-rate trends since 2017 How Atlantic salmon stocking changes are improving returns The role of pen-rearing programs in boosting survival Brown trout strain improvements and survival expectations Cormorant control efforts near stocking sites How anglers help shape DEC management decisions through advisory panels Whether you fish the Niagara Bar, the Salmon River, Oak Orchard, or anywhere else on Lake Ontario, this episode offers valuable insight into the science behind the fishery—and what it means for your next season on the water.

In Episode 281 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, host Chris Larsen talks with Jim and Diane Steel of Dream Catcher Sportfishing about targeting walleyes in the Eastern Basin of Lake Erie out of Dunkirk, New York. Jim and Diane break down their trolling program step-by-step, including how they run leadcore on planer boards, dipsy divers, and downriggers, and why stickbaits and spoons have largely replaced worm harnesses in their spread. They also explain how paying attention to downspeed and temperature at the probe helps anglers stay consistent when fishing deep open water structure. The conversation covers: Why Dunkirk is one of the most versatile ports on Lake Erie Typical rod spreads for Eastern Basin walleye trolling Stickbait and spoon size selection Speed control strategies (including their 2.2 mph starting point) How turns trigger bites when fish are following Seasonal timing from spring through fall Why the current Lake Erie walleye fishery is among the best in decades Common mistakes new trollers make—and how to fix them If you're planning a trip to the Eastern Basin of Lake Erie or looking to improve your trolling success on walleyes anywhere on the Great Lakes, this episode is packed with practical advice you can use right away.

In Episode 279 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, host Chris Larsen sits down with Trevor Sumption, Steve Stelter, and Mario Perzichilli from Fish Hawk Electronics for a relaxed after-hours conversation recorded at the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo in Niagara Falls, New York. This episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at the people who support Fish Hawk customers every day—from answering calls and troubleshooting systems to helping anglers get the most out of their electronics on the water. One of the biggest themes of this conversation is Fish Hawk's commitment to real customer service from real anglers. While many companies are moving toward automated chat systems and outsourced support, Fish Hawk continues investing in knowledgeable staff who understand the products and the challenges anglers face on the water. The discussion also touches on the excitement surrounding Fish Hawk ONE, the company's new modular and future-ready platform, along with growing interest in TD Connect and what these technologies mean for the future of fishing electronics. You'll also hear stories from the show floor at Niagara Falls, reactions from longtime Fish Hawk users still running legacy systems, and insights into how the company approaches product development, backwards compatibility, and long-term support for anglers across the Great Lakes and beyond.

In Episode 278 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, Chris Larsen shares another conversation from the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo featuring three experienced Lake Ontario captains: Captain Vince Pierleoni of Thrillseeker Sportfishing, Captain Matt Yablonsky of Wet Net Charters, and Captain Anthony Ellis of Redemption Charters. This wide-ranging discussion covers what these captains saw on the western end of Lake Ontario last season, including the surprising coho bite, strong king salmon fishing, brown trout trends, steelhead size, and what a huge alewife population could mean for the year ahead. They also break down practical trolling topics that matter to everyday anglers, including leader lengths, diver setups, spoon sizes, knot choices, rod and reel recommendations, and how to simplify your spread to catch more fish. The conversation also dives into spring instability on Lake Ontario, how wind and temperature shifts reposition bait and salmon, when Olcott fishing is most stable, and how to adapt when conditions change fast. Anthony also talks about his Broken Rod Tackle artificial meat products and offers advice for anglers looking to add a meat program without overcomplicating things.

On this episode of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, host Chris Larsen sits down with Tyson Colby, founder and engineer behind AccuTroll, to dive deep into one of the most talked-about innovations in trolling speed control. Tyson shares his engineering background and explains how AccuTroll was built using modern IoT technology to solve a problem every troller faces—maintaining precise, consistent speed in changing conditions. From closed-loop “cruise control” trolling that automatically adjusts throttle based on speed feedback, to ultra-compact under-cowling installation, AccuTroll brings a fresh, modern approach to kicker motor control. The conversation covers how AccuTroll integrates with NMEA 2000 networks, paddle wheel sensors, and GPS speed, why it excels in current-driven waters like the Great Lakes and Puget Sound, and how anglers can retrofit it to existing throttle systems with minimal effort. Tyson also explains the smartphone-based control system, Bluetooth remote with programmable macros, and how over-the-air updates allow the platform to grow with new features and integrations. Whether you're a charter captain or a weekend troller looking to simplify your spread and focus more on fishing, this episode breaks down why automated speed control is one of those tools you “didn't know you needed until you used it.”

On Episode 206 of the Fish House Nation Podcast, presented by Catch Cover, hosts Chris Larsen and Al Escobedo dive deep into one of the most talked-about—and debated—topics in ice fishing: color selection. Whether you're walking the aisles of the St. Paul Ice Show or stocking up at your favorite retailer, it's easy to get overwhelmed by the wall of plastics, jigs, glow baits, metallic finishes, and UV patterns. So what colors actually matter? And when? Chris and Al break it all down with a mix of practical strategy and real-world experience. They discuss how factors like water clarity, sunlight, depth, and fish behavior dictate color choice—and why confidence colors still play a massive role.

What happens when a former medical device professional takes his precision, risk management skills, and analytical mindset into the world of real estate investing?   You get Chris Larsen, the founder of Next-Level Income and this week's podcast/YouTube show guest, who has placed $120M+ in equity across $2B in acquisitions as a capital allocator.   Mastering the Capital Allocator Model Chris started as an active investor, acquiring multifamily, self-storage, and mobile home parks directly. As his network and experience grew, so did his role, evolving into a capital allocator who partners with sponsors to raise capital for them. By negotiating preferential terms and structuring his investments through funds, he helps investors access deals with higher returns than they would be able to investing directly with the sponsor.   Navigating Risk, Reward, and Market Challenges With interest rate volatility and shifting market conditions, Chris has seen both wins and losses. Some deals have outperformed, while others have faced capital calls and suspended distributions - a reality many sponsors are dealing with today.   His approach? Absolute transparency and strong relationships, the same principles that guided his career in the world of medical devices.   The Power of Investor Relationships Chris has built a 300+ investor network largely through referrals, podcasts, and his book funnel. His ability to bridge his expertise from one high-risk industry to another makes his insights invaluable for anyone looking to navigate real estate investing like a seasoned pro.   *** Explore the world of real estate capital allocators—a fresh approach to financing that's reshaping the industry.   In this series, I talk with allocators, investors, sponsors, and service providers to give you an inside look at this fast-growing space.   PLUS, subscribe to my free newsletter for real estate investors and gain access to: * Introductions to sponsors, allocators, and investment opportunities. * Insights drawn from my 30+ years of experience in real estate investing. * Hacks and tactics for raising capital to help you scale your real estate portfolio.   Visit GowerCrowd.com/subscribe
