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/

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:
