In this video: ✔️ How professional sports prepare you for entrepreneurship ✔️ The importance of accountability and discipline ✔️ Why resilience is the ultimate competitive advantage ✔️ The habits that drive long-term business success ✔️ How elite performers think differently ✔️ Building wealth through real estate investing ✔️ Why relationships matter more than transactions ✔️ The daily routines of top performers Athena also discusses the current real estate market, relationship-based business, building passive income, and why the lessons learned through sports may be the best business education anyone can receive.

The peace deal between the U.S. and Iran has been agreed to (at least for now). The Strait of Hormuz, the chokehold on 20% of the world's oil, is starting to open back up, and trade can, at least temporarily, continue. The question is, will inflation begin to fall if oil flows (more) freely through the Middle East? And if inflation falls, could mortgage rates be right behind them? Today, we're talking about what could actually happen from here on out. We've seen a lot of opinions recently saying this deal could boost the economy and the housing market, or bring mortgage rates back down to earth. The question is, will any of that actually happen? As real estate investors, knowing what's coming down the pipeline can give you a huge advantage, but believing the wrong narrative can cost you. So today, I'm giving you my honest, data-backed take on what happens next. Will inflation and mortgage rates retreat? When could we begin to see the effects of the open Strait? Will the housing market bounce back as the supply chain heals? And what should a real estate investor be on the lookout for before the changes hit our economy? In This Episode We Cover What really happens to mortgage rates when oil begins to flow and inflationary pressures ease? Why economists are saying we could be “warm for a while” in this economy Does Dave think rates will fall below 6% any time in 2026 (and if not, where will they be)? The two things that could lead us to lower mortgage rates (one is good, one is…not) The real effects the housing market will feel once the Strait is fully opened again And So Much More!

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan Greene welcomes back Whitney Elkins-Hutten to explore one of the most overlooked, but most important, concepts in building long-term wealth: creating an investor thesis. Whitney, Director of Investor Education at PassiveInvesting.com and founder of Ash Wealth, shares how investors can stop collecting random deals and start building portfolios that actually align with how they want to live their lives. Whitney explains that an investor thesis is essentially a set of decisions made before ever evaluating a deal. Rather than reacting emotionally to opportunities, investors can define their goals, timeline, risk capacity, preferred asset classes, geographic exposure, liquidity needs, and lifestyle objectives ahead of time. The result is a portfolio designed intentionally rather than assembled accidentally. The conversation dives into why passive investing has become increasingly attractive for busy professionals and experienced investors alike. Whitney and Jonathan discuss the difference between serving your portfolio versus having your portfolio serve your life, and why many high-income earners may benefit from leveraging experienced operators instead of building active real estate businesses from scratch. Whitney also breaks down the growing role of debt funds in modern portfolios, explaining how they differ from equity investments and why they can create stability during uncertain market cycles. She shares practical due diligence questions investors should ask, how liquidity really works in passive investments, and why understanding risk capacity, not just risk tolerance, can dramatically improve decision-making. Throughout the conversation, Whitney emphasizes the importance of maintaining reserves, reviewing portfolio allocation regularly, and conducting postmortems not only on investments that fail, but also on the ones that succeed. The episode offers a thoughtful framework for building wealth intentionally while maintaining flexibility through changing market conditions. In this episode, you will hear: • What an investor thesis is and why every investor should create one before evaluating deals • How passive investing can support lifestyle goals and long-term wealth creation • Why diversification should extend across operators, strategies, timelines, and capital structures • The role debt funds can play in balancing cash flow and portfolio flexibility • How understanding risk capacity can improve investment decisions • Why successful investors review both winning and losing investments to refine their strategy Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

The new Federal Reserve Chair is already making news, signaling a major change to rates—and not in the way Americans were hoping for. With inflation up, the Fed has eyed raising, not cutting, the Federal Funds rate, all while changing key language on price stability at its most recent meeting. The question is, will they do it, or is this simply a bluff to stop the market from getting out of control? We're back to break down this week's top housing market headlines, from the Fed's recent meeting to a surprising comeback in a few markets most believed were dead, and the massive HELOC pull that is taking billions more out of the housing market and into owners' hands. First, we're touching on the Fed. Will they really raise rates by this fall, defying the exact hopes of President Trump, or is this just a bluff to cool an already hot economy? Why is office, of all things, seeing a major comeback, and why are America's most divisive housing markets leading the charge? Finally, homeowners pull out a massive $47B (with a b) in home equity. Is this a cry for help from struggling homeowners? We're getting into it all!  In This Episode We Cover The Fed's latest announcement on inflation, rate movements, and their next moves What investors are doing now before rate hikes make their way back One commercial real estate asset class seeing a surprising comeback Is America's boom-then-bust market (Austin, Texas) finally seeing its turnaround? $47B in equity pulled: Are homeowners in trouble, and using equity to save themselves?

In this episode, Michael Blank sits down with Dwight Dunton, founder of Bonaventure and a multifamily veteran with more than 25 years of experience managing nearly $3 billion in assets. From buying his first 378-unit apartment complex at age 25 to navigating the Great Financial Crisis, COVID, and today's interest rate environment, Dwight shares the strategies that have helped him not only survive market downturns but thrive through them. The conversation explores why supply—not interest rates—is the biggest factor driving multifamily performance, how to structure debt and equity to withstand market volatility, and why “boring” markets often deliver the best long-term results. Dwight also breaks down creative tax strategies, including the lesser-known 721 exchange, and explains why preserving capital is the foundation of achieving financial freedom.Key TakeawaysFocus on Protecting Downside Risk First Long-term success in real estate isn't about maximizing returns—it's about avoiding catastrophic losses and staying in the game through every market cycle.Supply Matters More Than Interest Rates While rising rates grab headlines, oversupply is often the real driver of declining rents and compressed NOI in multifamily markets.Match Your Debt Strategy to Your Business Plan Aligning asset type, financing structure, investor expectations, and hold periods reduces risk and creates more resilient investments."Boring" Markets Often Produce Better Returns Markets with limited new supply and steady demand can outperform high-growth markets that attract excessive development.Value-Add Creates Growth You Can Control Investing in properties where you can improve operations and increase cash flow provides more stability than relying solely on market appreciation.Tax Strategy Can Significantly Increase Wealth Creation Tools like 1031 exchanges, Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs), and 721 exchanges can help investors defer taxes, diversify holdings, and transition from active ownership to passive investing.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael BlankFor full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session529/

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down the latest short report targeting Gildan Activewear and the major allegations around channel stuffing, receivables factoring, and whether the company’s recent growth may be less durable than it appears. They also look back at some of the most notable short reports in Canadian market history, including Shopify, Dollarama, Canadian Tire, Home Capital Group, Exchange Income Corp, FaceDrive, goeasy, and others. Some short sellers were completely wrong, some were early, and a few ended up being surprisingly accurate. To wrap things up, Simon shares a stock on his radar: Intuitive Surgical. He explains why the company’s robotic surgery platform, recurring revenue model, large installed base, and potential AI advantage make it an interesting name to watch after a pullback.

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan Greene sits down with Scott Carson, known throughout the industry as "The Note Guy", to explore one of real estate's most misunderstood investment strategies: non-performing notes. Scott shares how his own experience with overleveraging into rental properties and facing financial hardship became the foundation for building a business around distressed debt, helping homeowners stay in their homes while creating profitable opportunities for investors. Scott explains what note investing actually is and why so many people misunderstand the asset class. Instead of owning and managing property directly, note investors purchase the debt secured by real estate, often at a discount, and step into the lender's position. That opens the door to restructuring loans, modifying payments, negotiating exits, and in many cases keeping borrowers in their homes while generating strong returns. The conversation dives into where note investors fit in the foreclosure process and how they work with distressed homeowners. Scott walks through how lenders decide to sell non-performing loans, why flexibility matters once notes are acquired, and how loan modifications can create better outcomes for everyone involved, including homeowners, neighborhoods, and investors. Jonathan and Scott also discuss the realities of foreclosure, borrower psychology, and why empathy and business discipline both matter when navigating financial hardship. Scott also shares practical advice for investors interested in entering the note space, including where to find opportunities, how to think about evaluating deals, and why building relationships matters more than chasing flashy opportunities online. They explore why many investors migrate into notes after difficult experiences with other real estate strategies and how note investing can offer a more scalable and operationally efficient approach for those willing to learn the process. In this episode, you will hear: • How Scott's experience facing foreclosure led him into note investing • Why buying debt creates different opportunities than buying real estate directly • How loan modifications can help homeowners while improving investor returns • Where investors can find note opportunities and build relationships with lenders • Why successful note investing requires process, patience, and long-term thinking Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

This week on Canadian Macro Investor, Simon and Dan break down a packed macro backdrop: global central banks turning more hawkish, Kevin Warsh’s push to rethink how the Fed communicates and uses data, and why markets may be too relaxed about inflation risks. They also discuss the Canadian dollar, oil prices, the fragile Iran memorandum of understanding, and whether geopolitical risk is being ignored because investors are so focused on the AI trade. From there, they dig into OSFI lowering the Domestic Stability Buffer for Canadian banks, what it could mean for credit creation, and whether Ottawa is quietly trying to stimulate the economy through the banking system. The episode wraps with Canada’s population decline, falling rents, purpose-built rental supply, and why the housing market could remain under pressure even if construction slows.

What if building generational wealth wasn't about where you started—but about the decisions you make today? In this episode, Wendy Yee and Evon Mattison share how they grew from single-family investing into a multifamily portfolio of more than 600 doors valued at over $100 million. Drawing from over 40 years of combined real estate experience, they discuss their transition from LPs to GPs, the lessons learned from market downturns, the importance of transparency and credibility when raising capital, and why consistency, discipline, and taking action matter more than waiting until you're ready. They also reveal how they attract investors, build lasting relationships, leverage social media and education, and use multifamily investing as a vehicle to create freedom, stability, and a legacy that outlives them. If you're an investor or entrepreneur looking to scale your impact, strengthen your mindset, and build wealth with purpose, this conversation delivers practical insights you can apply immediately.5 Key takeaways from this episode1. Wealth Building Starts with Intention and Action Wendy and Evon emphasize that building generational wealth isn't about coming from wealth—it's about taking consistent action, staying disciplined, and committing to a long-term vision. 2. Credibility Is Earned Through Transparency Investors trust operators who openly share both wins and losses. The couple explains how honesty, transparency, and investing their own capital helped establish trust with investors. 3. Capital Raising Is a Skill That Can Be Learned Despite years of real estate experience, they initially felt uncomfortable raising capital. Through education, mentorship, and consistent practice, they learned how to confidently present opportunities and build investor relationships. 4. Strong Fundamentals Matter More Than Chasing Deals Their investing philosophy is rooted in conservative underwriting, risk management, and letting the asset speak for itself rather than pursuing deals simply to increase unit counts or transaction volume. 5. Relationships Drive Long-Term Success Whether with investors, partners, or tenants, genuine relationships are at the center of their business. Personal connection, consistent communication, and serving others create trust that compounds over time.About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

Neal Bawa - Grocapitus and MultifamilyU On Using the Right Tools to Make Good Decisions: "I said, I'm going to mine as much data as possible and try to get insights from that data." Many investors use real estate investing as an investment vehicle in their portfolio.  Most of those investors are looking at their local real estate market and trying to find deals that can pump out the returns they want. But the world is smaller now, and real estate investing in your backyard is no longer necessary.  You can invest hundreds of miles away and possibly turn over a stronger margin.  The way to find the best place to invest, starts with gathering data and comparing places. Neal Bawa, known widely as the "mad scientist of multifamily," is the engineer turned real estate investor that combines his knowledge of real estate, data science, and artificial intelligence. Neal shares his unconventional journey from running a successful tech company to revolutionizing real estate investing through data-driven decisions and AI-powered tools. Neal weathered the housing crash of 2008, built a thriving syndication business and a free educational community at MultifamilyU. Listen as Neal teaches us how to be fascinated by real estate, curious about the AI revolution, and to seek new ways to scale and automate your business. Enjoy!

Greater than the invention of the wheel, greater than the invention of fire, greater than the invention of the personal computer and the Internet put together. We have never seen anything of this Type. The smartphone wasn't even 1% of the AI revolution. And we think of the smartphone as the greatest invention of our times. It's nothing compared to AI.

And today we're welcoming, preparing to learn from Neil Bawa of Growcapitus. I'm told, Neil, you are the mad scientist of multifamily. Is that true? Neal Bawa [00:01:10]: It's a moniker I present at many conferences. So I presented at over 101 of the times when I was walking up to the stage, they were announcing and talking about me. The announcer said, the mad scientists of multifamily. And that got a nice gasp out of the audience and I was like, I like this. And so the next year I went to the conference, he introduced me as a mad scientist. And then eventually I was like, people like this concept because it helps them understand that I'm data driven. I'm very AI focused. And so it's an interesting moniker. Neal Bawa [00:01:41]: I don't have the dark brown hair, but I mean that's how I roll. So I let it be and eventually it became part of our story. James [00:01:51]: That is incredible. So tell me the story. How did you end up with the moniker of the mad scientist of multifamily? That's not something people throw randomly around. Neal Bawa [00:02:00]: Yeah, so look, I'm not a real estate guy, not a real estate royalty. No one in my family is in real estate. I'm a technologist. I'm from India, came here as a computer scientist. Data science is my area of interest. I'm an amateur data scientist, but my degree is in computer science and I ran a tech company from 1999 to 2013. Very successful, not a start up, you know, hundreds of employees. And we sold it in 2013. Neal Bawa [00:02:28]: And my interest in real estate started when the senior partner in the firm, I was a junior partner, basically said in 2003, we are not going to rent, we are going to build our own campus. And this wasn't a multifamily campus at that time. It was an office campus for a business. And, you know, we had 150 employees, and we were renting from somebody. And he didn't like that. So he, under his guidance and his expert advice, I built the first campus in 2003. We took 12 months to build it. We had no investors. Neal Bawa [00:03:00]: We had no bank. It was just all cash. We built it ourselves because the business was quite profitable. At the end of that process, I realized just the extraordinary, shockingly high benefits that you get when you use depreciation, Right? Cause this big campus, 27,000 square feet, and I just all of a sudden was making. Taking a lot more money home. I wasn't making more money. I was just taking a lot more money home because the depreciation of that building was phenomenal. And that got me hooked into real estate. Neal Bawa [00:03:30]: Because at one time, I remember after that building was done, James, I remember saying to my wife, I think real estate is the best authorized tax scam in America. Now, obviously, I didn't know depreciation back then. I didn't understand accounting. Now I understand that there's nothing scammy about it. You know, depreciation is a legitimate right. And you take it for real estate. You can also take it for other things. But for real estate, it's. Neal Bawa [00:03:56]: It's extremely beneficial compared to any other form of depreciation, any other business. And so I realized that I, you know, I had the big fat tax salary, and I was living in Taxifornia, so I was basically working for the man. 50% of my salary was going to state and federal. And so I said, I need to find a way around this, because I read a book by Robert Kiyosaki, and I remember the statement, it's not what you make, it's what you keep. Right? And I was like, I ain't keeping much of my salary. So I was like, okay, I need to get into real estate. So I went back to my boss and said, you know, what we did with this campus was really great. Let's do it again. Neal Bawa [00:04:31]: And so we built a bunch more campuses. I think four or five campuses were built and improved coming up to 2008. And so each year, what would happen is I was keeping more and more of my income because of all the depreciation that I was getting. And so I was saving and saving and saving. And so I'd ended up with, you know, pretty large amount of money by the time 2008 hit. And then when that happened, all of a sudden, property values plummeted. They went down. And so I would go to, you know, my family events and everyone would just bash real estate. Neal Bawa [00:04:58]: Everyone's like, this is horrible. Don't buy real estate. It's horrible, horrible. It's going to crash. You know, it's worth nothing, blah, blah, blah. And you can imagine everyone was saying that because, you know, all the television, on the tv you're just hearing bad news, bad news. Every day it's bad news. It can only go down further. Neal Bawa [00:05:11]: You know, millions and millions of homes are in foreclos. And I'm like, I don't understand this. I don't understand. I mean, I'm from the Warren Buffett school of investing, which is, you know, when things are cheap, you buy them. So I'm like, but I don't want to make a mistake. You know, I have this money, this, that I've saved up over the last five or six years. I want to go out and buy as many single family homes as I can. But I don't want to make a mistake. Neal Bawa [00:05:34]: What if I'm just an idiot that knows nothing? So I decided that I would basically educate myself. And I did that in the typical way that, you know, technologists and engineers do. I said, I'm going to mine as much data as possible and try to get insights from that data. So I started mining websites like Bureau of Labor Statistics and Zillow and Trulia and Redfin and you know, all these other sites that realtor.com that you've heard about in the real estate area. And I'm mining gigabytes of data and putting them into a statistical analysis software called R. The software is R and statisticians know it. And you know what R does? It makes it easy for you to take huge amounts of data that you know nothing about and give you insights, right? These days, AI does it and it even does it better than the software. But back then there was no AI. Neal Bawa [00:06:23]: So the software would give you insights, it would give you correlation. So you could say something like, show me real estate profits that are made in this city and this city and this city and correlate that real estate profit with these various things that I'm looking at. What is the highest correlation? Is the correlation of profits highest to population growth or job growth or income growth or home price growth or crime reduction or schools. Where's the correlation? The connection? The biggest, right? And then based on that correlation,...

Wall Street is quietly monopolizing the housing market—and we're not talking about them buying homes. It's something more far-reaching, something that will affect every investor in every market on every single deal.  Your local HVAC, pest control, drywall, and plumbing companies are seemingly raising prices in tandem, and each year it gets more expensive. Your material costs are jumping, sometimes 100% higher than they were just a few years ago, and every single brand seems to be owned by the same parent company. Now, your real estate agent is telling you that you're unable to view listings from another brokerage. Slowly, piece by piece, you're being locked or priced out of the housing market, or you're paying exorbitant amounts of money just to stay in the game. Why? Two words—corporate consolidation—the final play from Wall Street to make as much money as possible on every single thing you do for your home and real estate portfolio.  There are only a few ways to escape it. Today, I'm explaining how.  In This Episode We Cover The “corporate consolidation” machine gobbling up small businesses and raising prices on everything Why your material costs are rising so much more than the inflation rate The brokerage that's trying to lock you out of the market unless you work with them How the American housing market became a corporate profit playground Three things you can do today to keep your costs down and stay in the loop on real estate deals And So Much More!

On today’s episode, we cover a packed week across private markets, U.S. dealmaking, and Canadian earnings. We start with SpaceX and the growing anticipation around a potential IPO. We break down why the valuation, limited public float, and upcoming share unlocks could make this one of the most closely watched public listings whenever it eventually happens. We also look at a busy start to the week for acquisitions, including Fox’s investment in Roku, Salesforce’s latest deal, and American Express making a move of its own. Then we turn to earnings, with Dollarama posting a strong rebound quarter, Groupe Dynamite selling off sharply despite impressive growth numbers, and Adobe delivering solid results on the surface while investors focused on what may be ahead. Plus, a quick preview of Monday’s episode, where we’ll be diving deeper into the recent short report on Gildan.

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan Greene welcomes back Lauren Saidel-Baker, economist at ITR Economics, for a wide-ranging conversation about where the economy stands today and how investors should think about the years ahead. Returning after her earlier appearance discussing unbiased and apolitical forecasting, Lauren brings an updated perspective on inflation, interest rates, real estate, AI, demographic shifts, and why long-term planning matters more than reacting to headlines. Lauren explains how economists approach uncertainty by relying on historical precedent instead of daily news cycles. While current events—from geopolitical conflict to inflation concerns—create volatility and attention-grabbing narratives, she shares why forecasting requires stepping back and focusing on long-term indicators rather than constant reactions. The conversation explores how factors like energy prices, wage pressure, consumer sentiment, and affordability continue shaping the economy even when individual headlines dominate public attention. Jonathan and Lauren also dive into what these trends mean specifically for real estate investors. They discuss why housing affordability remains strained, how builders may still be creating the wrong types of homes for today's buyers, and why demographic and migration trends matter more than broad national narratives. Lauren explains how investors should think about interest rates, local market dynamics, and positioning themselves for long-term opportunity instead of waiting for perfect market conditions. The episode also revisits one of Lauren's most discussed forecasts: the economic challenges projected around 2030. She outlines why demographic shifts, government spending obligations, and debt pressures remain central themes in ITR's long-term outlook and explains why preparation—not fear—is the right response. Rather than viewing downturns as disasters, Lauren emphasizes that periods of disruption often create extraordinary opportunities for investors who remain disciplined, stay informed, and maintain flexibility in their financial decisions. In this episode, you will hear: • Why economists rely on historical precedent instead of reacting to daily headlines • How inflation, energy prices, and interest rates continue shaping real estate markets • Why affordability challenges and migration trends are changing housing demand • What investors should understand about AI, productivity, and long-term economic growth • Why Lauren continues to emphasize planning ahead for the economic shifts expected around 2030 Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

Amanda Cruise interviews Jonathan Greene, broker, investor, and host of the Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing podcast. Jonathan shares how growing up around commercial real estate shaped his investing philosophy and why he has shifted from active ownership into passive syndication investments as he focuses on lifestyle, capital preservation, and long-term wealth creation. The conversation explores how to evaluate syndication opportunities, the importance of operator quality and debt structure, lessons learned from failed acquisitions and mistimed exits, and why Jonathan prefers tangible assets that align with his personal interests. He also discusses mixed-use properties, generational wealth, and how investors can avoid chasing trendy asset classes in favor of disciplined decision-making.   Jonathan Greene Host of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Owner and Broker of Record of Streamline Based in: Mendham, New Jersey Where to find them: Jonathan's Hub Site - ⁠www.trustgreene.com⁠ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-greene-re/ Podcast - www.zenandtheartofrealestateinvesting.com YouTube - www.youtube.com/JonathanGreenere Instagram - www.instagram.com/zenrealestateinvesting Instagram-  www.instagram.com/trustgreene Book your free demo today at bill.com/bestever and get a $100 Amazon gift card.

In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Dwan Bent-Twyford, known as the Queen of Short Sales, for a raw, funny, and powerful conversation about real estate, survival, faith, family, and betting on yourself.Dwan shares how she went from growing up in small-town Ohio, working factory and restaurant jobs, becoming a single mom, and facing a major life setback, to knocking on foreclosure doors with a baby on her hip and making $22,000 on her very first real estate deal.From there, her story gets even crazier.She talks about learning rehabs the hard way, using a Home Depot credit card to get started, building a real estate career with no fancy background, doing more than 2,000 deals, writing books, becoming nationally known in the short sale space, and eventually helping revitalize downtown Clinton, Iowa with her husband Bill Twyford.Dwan also opens up about Bill's serious health battle, the decision their family had to make, and how that experience shaped their outlook on risk, faith, family, and taking action before it's too late.This episode is blunt, emotional, hilarious, and full of real lessons for anyone trying to build something bigger than where they started.Listen now to hear Dwan's story and why sometimes the best move is betting on yourself before anyone else does.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

Energy prices affect far more than the cost of gas—they influence inflation, interest rates, construction costs, and ultimately real estate values. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse breaks down the recent Middle East ceasefire framework and why investors should be paying attention to its impact on energy markets. He explains how oil prices ripple through the economy, affecting everything from construction materials and renovation budgets to consumer spending and multifamily operations. Dan also discusses the relationship between energy prices, inflation, and interest rates, along with what investors should watch as policymakers navigate economic uncertainty. From labor market trends to refinancing opportunities, he shares how shifting macroeconomic conditions can create both risks and opportunities in commercial real estate. If you want to understand how global events influence local real estate markets—and how experienced investors position themselves during periods of uncertainty—this episode lays it out clearly.

This is exactly what we're buying, selling, and trading in Summer 2026. It's a strange time for real estate—multifamily prices are crashing hard, single-family is staying stable, rents aren't moving much, mortgage rates are back up—what do you do? Today, we're sharing exactly what we're doing with our real estate portfolios to make the most of a market many are too scared to buy (or sell) in. The not-so-obvious news—a couple of us are actively selling rentals. Why? Because deals are getting almost irresistible in one sector of the market. Prices are crashing hard, sellers have almost no negotiating power, and you can pick up profitable, cash-flowing properties for a fraction of what they were worth just a couple of years ago. The best part? Most investors are completely skipping over these deals. For those looking to make money a little quicker, Henry and James are sharing the flip criteria that's helping them make even more cash with less effort and way less risk in 2026. Want proof? Henry is making $70,000 on a deal he barely had to even sweep out to get ready to sell. If you're looking for lower-risk, lower-expense returns, this may be exactly what to do this season.  In This Episode We Cover How to take advantage of the multifamily crash without buying 100+ unit properties We're selling our rentals!

In this episode, Michael Blank sits down with investor and capital raiser Robyn Thompson to explore the mindset, systems, and strategies behind raising capital for multifamily deals. After transitioning from residential real estate and fix-and-flips, Robyn realized that her true strength wasn't finding deals—it was building relationships and connecting investors with opportunities. She shares her journey from raising her first $400,000 to helping secure more than $3 million across multiple deals, revealing the lessons she learned about overcoming fear, building credibility, leveraging CRMs, and creating a repeatable capital-raising process. If you've ever felt intimidated by raising money or unsure whether you're a deal finder or a capital raiser, this episode provides a practical roadmap for taking action and building confidence.Key TakeawaysYour First Capital Raise Will Feel Uncomfortable—Do It Anyway The hardest part of raising capital is starting the conversation. Confidence comes through repetition, and each conversation gets easier than the last.Play to Your Strengths Instead of Doing Everything Yourself Successful syndicators focus on their unique abilities, whether that's finding deals or raising capital, and partner with others who complement their skill sets.Lead with Education, Not the Deal Investors respond better when you focus on understanding their goals and educating them about their options instead of immediately pitching an opportunity.Systems and CRMs Create a Scalable Capital-Raising Business Organizing contacts, segmenting audiences, and consistently nurturing relationships through email, text, and social media turns capital raising into a repeatable process.Trust and Credibility Matter More Than Perfect Pitch Decks Investors want to work with someone who communicates clearly, understands their needs, and guides them confidently through the investment process.Scarcity and Clear Next Steps Drive Action Asking for allocation amounts, scheduling follow-up conversations, and communicating limited availability can significantly improve investor commitment.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael BlankFor full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session528/

Father’s Day can stir up a lot for dads. For some, it’s breakfast in bed and handmade cards. For others, it’s a quiet moment of reflection: Am I really the dad I want to be? In this special Father’s Day episode, guest host and Director of Development, Chad Hayenga, sits down with Connected Families Certified Parent Coaches David Cervenka and Joe Dewey for an honest, encouraging conversation about what it looks like to stay calm as dads, especially when things get challenging at home. Together, they share real stories from their own parenting journeys, and share the kind of wisdom that comes from walking the same journey many of you may be on. If you’re a dad who sometimes wonders if you’re getting it right, this episode is for you. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to keep showing up, and our loving God, who redeems the lives of His servants (Psalm 34:22), is in the business of redeeming our parenting moments, too.
