Podcasts about fixer uppers

In this episode of the Note Closer Show, host Scott Carson sits down with real estate veteran Felipe Soares to dissect the realities of the 2026 fix-and-flip market. With over 18 years of experience and more than 400 rehabs under his belt, Soares provides a masterclass in transitioning from wholesaling to high-volume rehabbing without using your own capital.The Anatomy of a Successful FlipSoares emphasizes that while the business is simple, it is far from easy. He argues that the biggest mistake investors make is failing to truly dial in their After Repair Value (ARV). In a market where values can fluctuate by 10% or more, Soares suggests that if you cannot accurately predict the ARV, you shouldn't touch the deal. He also stresses the importance of the 78% rule; paying more than 78 cents on the dollar (including repairs and holding costs) often leads to negative returns for short-term projects.Efficiency is the name of the game in 2026. Soares reveals his "rule of thumb" for timelines: every $10,000 in scope requires two weeks of work. To maintain this pace, he operates his own licensed construction umbrella, managing four dedicated general contracting crews that work exclusively for him. By purchasing materials directly and leveraging "Pro" relationships at major retailers, he maximizes margins while earning millions of travel points to fund a first-class lifestyle.Key Topics Covered:The Power of Persistence: Soares shared how it took him 18 months to close his first $3,000 wholesale deal, proving that "putting in the reps" is the only way to reach $60 million in transactional volume.Precision Underwriting: Why the ARV is the ultimate "deal killer" and why investors must account for the 90-day FHA anti-flip seasoning rule when projecting exit timelines.Leveraging Technology: The use of AI tools like CubiCasa for instant floor plans and Richer Values for AI-driven appraisal data even in non-disclosure states like Texas.Relationship-Based Contracting: Why treating contractors "like family" and keeping them busy year-round is better than always chasing the lowest bid.High-Impact Aesthetics: Focusing budget on "Say Yes to the Dress" moments—specifically kitchens and master suites—using quartz counters, heated floors, and strategic lighting to trigger emotional buys.Felipe Soares' journey from an underage investor trying to sneak into networking events to a "Stud Muffin-aire" educator proves that success in real estate isn't about luck—it's about systems. By combining conservative underwriting with modern AI tools and a "boots on the ground" approach to project management, investors can navigate even the toughest market cycles. As Scott Carson notes, the only way to reach the top is to take these tactics and move into action.Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Here is a list of websites and tools mentioned in this episode:CubiCasa: A free mobile app used to scan a house and generate a blueprint with actual measurements, CAD upgrades, and floor plans within minutes.Richer Values: An AI-powered tool that provides accurate After Repair Value (ARV) data and appraisal-level documentation, even in non-disclosure states like Texas.Real.Vision: A professional photography service used for high-end property marketing, providing interactive virtual tours, drone shots, and dedicated property mini-sites.Home Depot Pro & Managed Elite Account: Felipe leverages high-level "Pro" relationships and the "ProDesk" to get bulk discounts, special pricing on paint, and managed deliveries.Floor & Decor Pro: Used for interior design coordination and logistical management of flooring materials across multiple stores.REOLink: An LTE-based security camera system that runs on SIM cards and battery power, allowing for remote monitoring of job sites without Wi-Fi.Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!

This week the lads are pondering the benefits of taking on a bit of fixer upper when dating; the return on investment is tenfold, girls! They also discuss PJ's grooming habits, and Kevin sings “boots, that's my ego boost” approximately 704 times. Then for the theme, the boys are covering something near and dear to their hearts: the TV talent show. They reminisce on everything from Cher Lloyd's iconic Halloween cover of Stay, to Ireland's best talent show, You're A Star. They also make some pretty big claims, including that Girls Aloud's discography is better than the Spice Girls. Fight amongst yourselves in the comments, girlies.

Faux Fixer Upper: A Tik-Tok Couple's 5 Million Dollar FraudChristopher and Raquelle Judge were a seemingly glamorous North Texas Tik-Tok influencer couple who on August 11th 2025 were charged with turning dream homes into nightmares.Posing as expert home builders and renovators, the Judges swindled over 40 families out of nearly $5 million through a sophisticated wire fraud scheme, leaving behind half-finished houses, shattered trusts, and mountains of debt. From their TikTok-fueled facade of luxury living to the courtroom confessions that could land them decades behind bars, Jim breaks down the red flags, the victims' harrowing stories, and the federal investigation that brought their empire crumbling down.For commercial free early releases, bonus episodes and more! https://www.patreon.com/exposedpodcastfiles Links to Follow Crime Wire Weekly https://linktr.ee/crimewireweekly  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/exposed-scandalous-files-of-the-elite--6073723/support.

Every generation makes its share of real estate mistakes. Boomers often overpay for upgrades they could easily add. Gen X gets stuck chasing the “perfect” down payment. Millennials keep waiting for a 2008-style crash that never comes. And Gen Z? They fall in love with fixer-uppers they can't actually fix. This episode breaks down those common traps, what they cost, and how to avoid them—plus shares insights from a recent discussion with Congressman William Timmons on the ongoing government shutdown and its potential impact on housing.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! It was just another house. Or so Michelle McClane Woods thought when she and her husband purchased a fixer-upper in 2015. With dreams of turning the dated property into a warm, modern home, they began making changes—repairs, renovations, and fresh touches to give it new life. But as they worked, strange feelings began creeping in. It didn't take long before Michelle realized they weren't alone. The previous owner of the home—long since passed—seemed to still be there. And she wasn't exactly pleased with the young couple's vision for the property. From slamming doors to a heavy, oppressive atmosphere, it became clear that this spirit wasn't ready to give up her territory. Michelle began to sense that the ghost wanted things “her way”—the way they had always been, before anyone dared to alter the space she once called her own. Each change Michelle and her husband made seemed to stir up more unrest, as if the entity was fighting them every step of the way. Was this simply residual energy echoing through the walls? Or was it something more personal—a spirit still attached, unwilling to let go, and determined to keep the house exactly as she left it? This is more than a haunted house tale—it's a story about clashing wills, one of flesh and blood, the other from beyond the grave. #HauntedHouse #TrueGhostStories #RealHauntings #GhostPodcast #HauntedHome #RealGhostStories #Hauntings #TheGraveTalks #ParanormalStories #FixerUpperGoneWrong Love real ghost stories?

Queen, let's talk about the mindfuck breakup that's been keeping you stuck—the one with Mr. "Perfect on Paper" who left your soul starved despite checking every box society told you mattered. You know the type: well-dressed, well-traveled, well-paid, and wildly unavailable emotionally. This episode is your permission slip to finally name what you've been feeling and stop gaslighting yourself into believing something was wrong with you. It's time to get the closure you didn't get and claim the healing you absolutely deserve. Because when perfection masks a project, high-achieving Black women like you end up performing emotional triage instead of experiencing real partnership—and that ends today. What You'll Learn • Discover why your nervous system was screaming "something's off" even when everyone else thought you hit the jackpot. • Reclaim your reality by learning to identify "high presentation, low intimacy" men who look like prizes but function like emotional projects • Transform the cognitive dissonance that keeps you ruminating by naming the real problem: you weren't dating a high-value man, you were managing an undercover emotional fixer-upper. • Shift from self-blame to self-empowerment. • Notice how societal programming taught you to override your instincts and perform "low maintenance" just to keep the peace. • Repair what got damaged in the process: your trust in yourself, your joy, your hope, and your ability to love without shrinking.   This isn't just about one relationship—it's about breaking the cycle of self-abandonment that keeps high-achieving Black women trapped in situations that look good on paper but leave us emotionally starved. When you've been conditioned to prove your worthiness of love, your nervous system starts mistaking anxiety for attraction.    Take Action Take my free quiz to discover how your nervous system and survival patterns may be blocking your clarity:

Halle deals with the fallout surrounding Chip and Joanna Gaines while Gray talks about "Rodeo and Juliet."

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the recent controversy surrounding former HGTV stars Chip and Joanna Gaines who rose to fame from their home renovation show called Fixer Upper, which aired back in 2013. In 2019, they announced their departure from HGTV and the launch of a new network called the Magnolia Network, which finally debuted in 2022. But just last month, many of their fans turned on them after they featured a same-sex couple on their show, Back to the Frontier. Same-sex couples on TV shows are hardly uncommon nowadays, so why have the Gaines received so much backlash and from whom? Episode Links Christie D'Zurilla wrote an article in the Los Angeles Times titled, “Chip and Joanna Gaines' new show features a same-sex married couple. Some Christians are ‘disappointed.'” If you're interested in reading the full article you can find it HERE. Some people who question the Christian community's response to their decision are seemingly misunderstanding the difference between acceptance and affirmation, between making a value judgment and being judgmental. Dr. White gave a series at Mecklenburg Community Church that might be helpful to listen to. It's called “Unchristian,” and its installments are a response to people who say that Christians are judgmental, hypocritical and homophobic. You can find that series HERE. There are two additional series that we think would be helpful for a deeper look at what the Bible has to say about judgmentalism, the true meaning of grace, and the significance of Jesus bringing both grace AND truth to bear on people's lives. Those series are “Judged” and “Getting Grace Right,” both available in .mp3 or .pdf formats at Church & Culture. Finally, there were two authors Dr. White mentioned during today's discussion. The first was John Stott and his book Sermon on the Mount, which includes an exploration of what true judgmentalism is like, and how it can lead to setting yourself up as God. And the second was Dr. Henry Cloud and his book Changes That Heal for more of the discussion on grace and truth.

(Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims slaughtered 27 Christians including 3-year-old girl At 3:00 a.m. on July 15th, the Christian village of Bindi near Jos in the Plateau State in Nigeria, was plunged into a nightmare. Twenty-seven Christians were slaughtered, including a 3-year-old girl and nine members of Pastor Davou Musa's family, burned alive in their home, reports TruthNigeria.com. These attacks are not isolated incidents. They are part of a coordinated, radical Islamic campaign carried out by Fulani terrorists, with a mission to eradicate Christians from Nigeria and establish a Muslim caliphate. The perpetrators shouted “Allahu Akbar” as they hacked, shot, and burned families alive. One pastor shed light on what that Arabic phrase means. PASTOR: “Allah Akbar. Some will translate that as ‘God is great.' ‘ Perhaps a better translation of that Arabic phrase is, ‘Our God is greater.' This is a declaration that the demon and demons working through these people consider themselves to be greater than Jesus Christ, the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. “Ephesians 6:[12] says that our war is not just ‘against flesh and blood, but powers, principalities and spirits.' Practically, what this means is, when you see conflict in the seen realm, there is far greater conflict in the unseen realm. And when you hear, ‘Our God is greater,' that is a declaration of spiritual warfare from a demon against Jesus Christ, the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob.” And where was the military? Just two miles away, but they arrived two hours late, a disturbing pattern of complicity that Christians have endured over and over again. Equipping The Persecuted is mobilizing immediately to assist survivors, providing emergency aid, trauma care, food, and security. But they urgently need your help. They are the only organization on the ground whose mission is to stop the persecution, not just clean up after it. This is not just a humanitarian crisis. It is genocide. And the world is ignoring it. Make a donation to Equipping the Persecuted through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Huckabee rebukes attackers of Christian church in Palestinian town U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee condemned recent attacks on a Christian village and its historic church in the West Bank, calling them “a crime against humanity and God,” reports The Christian Post. His statement came after visiting the site of the arson and ongoing harassment. Huckabee travelled Saturday to Taybeh, a Christian Palestinian town that residents say has endured a wave of assaults by Israeli settlers in recent weeks, according to The Times of Israel.  The attacks include a fire set near the ruins of the Church of St. George, which church leaders described as among the most severe incidents to date. Huckabee, a longtime Evangelical supporter of Israel, said during his visit that the desecration of religious sites represented “an act of terror” and that such actions should carry “harsh consequences.” Trump diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency after leg swelling Last Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt gave the press an update on President Donald Trump's health. She told reporters that he has experienced mild swelling in his lower legs, according to a memo from Dr. Sean Barbarella, the physician to the president. LEAVITT: “The president underwent a comprehensive examination, including diagnostic vascular studies. Bilateral lower extremity veinous doppler ultrasounds were performed and revealed chronic venous insufficiency, a benign, common condition, particularly in individuals over the age of 70.” Leavitt also talked about photos showing some minor bruising on the back of the President's hand. She explained the bruising is a minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, reports CBN News. Intercessors for America featured this prayer.  Pray with me now, if you would. “Father, we lift President Trump before You. We ask You would heal him and strengthen his body as he continues to serve our great nation. Amen.” Why Republicans defunded NPR and PBS The U.S. Congress voted to defund the Public Broadcasting Corporation by $1.1 billion, reports The Epoch Times. Republican Congressman Brandon Gill of Texas spoke from the floor of the House. GILL: “Tonight is the culmination of months of work from House Republicans to defund left wing state sponsored media outlets like NPR. “During that process, we got to bring in leadership from these outlets, like the CEO of NPR, Katherine Maher to testify before the House Oversight Committee she's written extensively about every single major woke buzz word that you could think of, including, ‘the ravages of late stage capitalism,' ‘structural privilege,' her own ‘cis white mobility privilege.'  Most Americans, including myself, didn't know what that meant until reading this. “She's written about how ‘I do wish Hillary, [meaning Hillary Clinton], wouldn't use the language of ‘boy and girl.' It's erasing language for non-binary people. “This is the person running the outlet the other side of the aisle wants our tax dollars to subsidize non-partisan news outlets are not run by lunatics like this. Republicans are done using the power that voters give us to fund Democrat media machines. We're playing to win now.” Chip and Joanna Gaines promote homosexuality on new TV show And finally, Christians across America are objecting to the moral compromise of self-proclaimed Christians Chip and Joanna Gaines known for their home renovation show Fixer Upper and the Magnolia Network, reports the New York Post. As producers of a new reality show “Back to the Frontier” which premiered on July 10th, they sparked backlash for casting a homosexual male couple. A source close to Chip and Joanna – who cast a faux-married couple Jason Hanna and Joe Riggs and their 10-year-old twin sons through surrogacy – says they have long affirmed perversion. Conservative Christian leaders like Reverend Franklin Graham and podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey both slammed their decision, with Graham calling the casting “very disappointing.”  Graham was clear in his stance, writing: “His Word is absolute truth. God loves us, and His design for marriage is between one man and one woman.” This prompted Chip to pour gasoline on the controversy by tweeting: “The way of ‘modern American Christian culture' is ‘Judge 1st, understand later/never.' ”  Christian author Matt Walsh replied, “Maybe you should endeavor to understand the basic moral teachings of your own alleged religion before you give lectures to other people about their lack of understanding.” And Robby Starbuck, another Christian influencer, said, “Promoting this show means cash is greater than Christianity. When you reduce it to that simple truth, it's eye opening. I hope you correct course Chip. ‘For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?'” (Matthew 16:26) The TV couple – parents to five children ranging between 20 and seven in age – are active members of the traditionally conservative Antioch Community Church of Waco, Texas. On its website, the church proclaims, “God commissions each of us to go into our spheres of influence and represent Jesus so that His Kingdom would come and His will would be done.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, July 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Ready to trade your sledgehammer for some holy water? That's what happens when a family's dream of restoring a grand old plantation house morphs into a nightly showdown with noisy footsteps, ghostly whispers, and the creepiest water feature imaginable (hint: it's definitely not a decorative fountain). As they navigate everything from ear-haunting apparitions to the epic final straw of water pouring from ceiling fans, you'll wonder if that “fixer-upper special” was actually a secret handshake with the undead.
