Carly Stagge left corporate finance at JP Morgan and did $1 million in assignment fees her first full year in Denver. She explains why her company double closes every deal now, and how transactional funding moved their average fee from $17,500 to $25,500 in a single month. She also covers what a double close does that an assignment cannot, including the ability to renegotiate price with the seller, and why assignment fee laws in states like Pennsylvania and Ohio are pushing wholesalers toward it.

Sellers give up real money all the time, and it is almost never because they are bad at math. Jiries Dawaher has closed roughly a thousand real estate transactions, and in this episode he lays out the five motivations that make a seller take a lower number, from speed of close to the certainty that the deal will not fall apart. He also runs the net proceeds math that turns a $100,000 listing into $80,000 in the seller's pocket, which is how a $90,000 cash offer wins. The back half covers how he gets invited to the kitchen table in the first place, including the exact way he asks for the appointment without putting a seller on the defensive.   KEY TALKING POINTS: 0:00 - Intro to Seller Motivations 5:56 - Kitchen Table Philosophy 6:57 - Building Your Call List 9:10 - Getting to the Kitchen Table 10:17 - Warm vs Cold Leads 11:42 - The Appointment Script 13:45 - Follow-Ups Where Deals Live 14:47 - Outro   LINKS: Instagram: Jiries Dawaher https://www.instagram.com/jiriesd   Website: WholeScaling (Free) https://www.skool.com/brrrr/   Instagram: David Lecko https://www.instagram.com/dlecko   Website: DealMachine https://www.dealmachine.com/pod   Instagram: Ryan Haywood https://www.instagram.com/heritage_home_investments   Website: Heritage Home Investments https://www.heritagehomeinvestments.com/

Helping People First Creates Better Deals Finding off market deals is not about using the latest marketing trick. Sharon Vornholt explains why understanding people's situations and building trust creates better opportunities over time.

She explains how probate works, why it provides a consistent source of motivated seller leads, and why investors should focus on helping families instead of rushing to get contracts signed. She also discusses lead stacking, direct mail campaigns, follow up strategies, and why most investors quit long before the best opportunities arrive. Key Topics How Sharon became an accidental wholesaler Why probate investing works in every market Understanding the probate process Building trust with motivated sellers Why direct mail still produces results Using lead stacking to find stronger opportunities Why consistent follow up matters more than quick wins Common mistakes investors make when contacting probate leads Guest Information Sharon Vornholt is a real estate investor, educator, and probate investing expert who has been investing since 1998.

Matt Faircloth interviews Justin Spillers and Brandon Virgallito, founders of Real Estate Alpha and winners of the Best Ever Conference 10 Pitch Slam. They share how they built their multifamily business over nearly a decade by focusing on disciplined acquisitions, in-house operations, standardized renovation systems, and scaling through repeatable processes rather than chasing trends. The conversation explores their approach to sourcing off-market opportunities, creating value through operational excellence, and launching a unique preferred equity fund structure designed around alignment and long-term portfolio growth. Justin and Brandon also preview how they plan to bring practical lessons on acquisitions, leasing, property management, renovations, and capital raising to their Best Ever podcast takeover.

Today, we're going to meet Matt, who tried to build a property portfolio the wrong way. Then he came to Progressive and learned how to do it right. He now uses none of his own money, works with private investors, and in this latest deal, the owner of the property is lending him the money to do the deal.

With the right architect and planning strategy, a single barn can be split into multiple smaller homes and even have floor space effectively doubled using mezzanines and smart design.   Joint ventures, with landowners and private investor funding projects, allow you to scale without risking your own money. Having multiple exit strategies is wise. It ensures the deal works almost regardless of how the market changes of what issues you face. Progressive teaches all of the exit strategies. It was a LinkedIn post that led directly to Matt's award‑winning joint venture deal. Put yourself out there and use Progressive´s techniques to leverage social media. BEST MOMENTS  "Property is literally one of the only investment vehicles I can think of where you can start, grow, and scale a business using none of your own money."  "Under class Q, permitted development, you can take a rundown old barn and convert it into high-yielding residential property without needing full planning permission … This is a property equivalent of turning dust into diamonds."  "Wherever you are there´s always opportunities… I make a point when I'm driving around here, though I've lived there all my life, of going down different roads to get to different places."  VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Sean Fitzpatrick is a property investor, educator, and the Face of Progressive Property. With a 6-figure portfolio and expertise in creative strategies, finance, and off-market deals, Sean shares success stories from the Progressive Property community, expert insights, and real-world strategies to help investors succeed.

A popular YouTuber bought a rental property in Plano, Texas, lost money on cash flow, and walked away calling it a regret. David and Ryan watched the video live and pushed back hard. The problem wasn't rentals. It was buying at retail, managing from 2,000 miles away, and skipping the upfront repair analysis. In this episode they break down what went wrong and what to do instead, from buying off market to tenant selection to building contractor relationships that actually scale.   KEY TALKING POINTS: 0:00 - Intro 0:18 - David & Ryan's Background 0:38 - Watching Biaheza's Video 4:48 - Ryan's Initial Reaction 7:58 - David's Reaction & Buying Right 12:17 - Tenant Selection 13:52 - How To Do It Better 16:40 - Closing Thoughts 18:12 - Outro   LINKS: Instagram: David Lecko https://www.instagram.com/dlecko   Website: DealMachine https://www.dealmachine.com/pod   Instagram: Ryan Haywood https://www.instagram.com/heritage_home_investments   Website: Heritage Home Investments https://www.heritagehomeinvestments.com/

Raphael Johnson has been in real estate for 20 years, and he says AI changed his business more than anything else in the last decade.

He also gets into his deal criteria, how he's doing 2-to-1 off-market versus on-market deals, and the hard-won lessons from two decades of direct-to-seller investing.

Email blasts are dying- here's what's replacing them in real estate deals. In this episode, I sat down with Bobby Suarez to break down how the off-market real estate game is changing- and what's actually working right now. We got into why outbound tactics like email blasts and cold outreach are becoming less effective, and how inbound marketing, brand, and buyer experience are taking over. Bobby is spending $50K–$70K a week on marketing and has built a business that runs without him day-to-day. But what stood out most wasn't the spend- it was how intentional he is about efficiency, culture, and building systems that compound over time. If you want to scale your deal flow and stop chasing every lead manually, this episode will shift how you think. --------------------- Instagram: Bobbysuarez and rezzieoffmarket --------------------- ➨Our Evergreen Marketing Podcast: https://plnk.to/Carrot ➨Our CEO, Trevor Mauch's Entrepreneur Freedom Formula Podcast: https://link.chtbl.com/EFF ➨ Facebook Group for Evergreen Marketing: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialcarrotcommunity ➨Subscribe to our YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GetCarrot ➨Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/getcarrot/ ➨Take a demo of Carrot.com: https://carrot.ly/GQ8I --------------------- Quotes from the Episode: “I wanted to build something big enough where it runs without me.” “Buyers are tired of getting spammed with deals that don't match what they want.” --------------------- About Us: At Carrot, our vision is to inspire & empower real estate professionals to gain true freedom and make a greater impact with their businesses.

The NYC Market Is Tighter Than the Numbers Show — Craig Roth Explains Why Noah and John sit down with Craig Roth, founder and principal of NextStop NY — a 22-year NYC real estate veteran who closes 150+ deals a year with over $2 billion in career sales. Craig specializes in Midtown East and Upper East Side, and he pulls no punches. Three of his listings went into contract this week before ever going back on the market. He breaks down why Upper East Side co-op prices are still below 2018 highs, why rents running 10% above last year are pushing buyers off the fence, and why right now feels a lot like 2012–13 — just before the market made a big move. Craig also gets into the craft: why he despises virtual staging, the co-op sublet policies and flip taxes that silently kill investment returns, and the one book every new agent should read. Topics in this episode: • Off-market deals and the tight inventory reality • Why the rent-vs-buy math is shifting for Upper East Side buyers • Parents buying for adult children — and why the numbers make sense • NYC resilience: ignoring political noise and trusting the long cycle • The "doctor of real estate" mindset and building-specific knowledge • Co-op sublet policies and flip taxes that destroy returns • Physical vs. virtual staging — Craig's strong take • Common listing agent mistakes: staging, pricing, confidence • CRM from day one — Craig's biggest early career regret • Network like crazy: seeds Craig planted without realizing it • "The Purple Cow" by Seth Godin — must-read for new agents • Why organic relationships beat cold calling every time ✅ NextStop NY: https://www.nextstopny.com ✅ Craig on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/realestatenewyork ✅ Craig on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nsnyrealestate =============== ✅ Stay Connected:
