This week we breakdown why real estate investing isn't about "winning a contest" against the other party, but about securing solid deals that build long-term wealth. We caution against ego-driven negotiating, analysis paralysis, and inexperience holding investors back. Instead, in this episode, we encourage good faith offers, leaning on a trusted team, and focusing on the bigger goal of financial freedom — because in real estate, losing small battles to win the war is often the smartest strategy.Have any questions?

The current market uncertainty is creating prime buying opportunities here in Memphis. In this week's episode we encourage you not to waste this buying opportunity. With global tensions and Federal Reserve changes causing hesitation among buyers, motivated sellers are pricing properties 15-20% below market value. We've got deals meeting or exceeding the 1% rental rule, making cash flow investing more attractive. Echoing Warren Buffett's philosophy of being "greedy when others are fearful," we encourage investors to stay active, submit offers, and take advantage of increased inventory before the window closes.Have any questions?

This week Dean and Douglas discuss mortgage interest rates and what investors should realistically expect.They agree that rates dropping back to historic lows of around 3% is unlikely, even with new Federal Reserve chair Kevin Warsh taking over. Dean shares his personal decision to refinance a large portion of his portfolio now rather than waiting. They advise investors with multiple properties to consider refinancing if it improves cash flow, while others should hold steady. Both emphasize adapting to today's higher rate environment and continuing to invest in Memphis's stable market.Have any questions?

Amanda Cruise interviews Steve Taylor, who shares how a costly office lease signed just before the COVID-19 lockdowns pushed him to rethink how commercial space is marketed and monetized. After struggling to fill vacant space in London, he developed SoCommercial, a platform designed to let anyone list and monetize any size of commercial real estate, from full buildings to fractional spaces like desks or storage shelves. He explains the challenges of building a two-sided marketplace, emphasizing the difficulty of balancing supply (listers) and demand (lookers) while bootstrapping growth without major funding. Steve also discusses his “free-to-list” model, his belief in removing barriers for smaller landlords, and his long-term vision of creating a more flexible, inclusive commercial real estate ecosystem.

Mayor Mark Shepherd Clearfield City, UT Mark Shepherd was born in Salt Lake City but grew up in Albuquerque, NM. He has lived in Clearfield for the past 23 years. Mark's ‘non-political' life includes being the Principal Broker for the Shepherd Real Estate Group, a local, independent real estate brokerage which he founded in 2018. His business focuses primarily on military relocation, both to and from Utah. Mark served nearly 9 years on the Clearfield Planning Commission before being elected to the City Council in 2007. After 6 years on the Council, Mark was elected as Clearfield City's Mayor in 2013 and is now in his second term in that position. Mark has served as an Honorary Commander for the 388th MXG for three years and is presently serving as the Honorary Commander for the 466th FS. He was appointed by Utah's Governor to serve on the Military Installation Development Authority (MIDA) which has responsibility for development of Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) properties throughout Utah. He serves on the Utah Defense Alliance and on the Board of Directors for the local Air Force Association chapter. He served for two years as the Chairman of the Military Communities Council for the National League of Cities, and now serves as the Vice-Chair for the Finance, Administration and Inter-governmental Affairs (FAIR) committee. Mark has been married to his wife Tammie for the past 31 years. They are the parents of seven children and three grandchildren. In his “spare” time, Mark will likely be found at a Real Salt Lake soccer game, searching for his ball at one of the local golf courses or at the gun range practicing his aim. Whichever activity that day might bring, you will almost always find one of his children by his side.
