Welcome to the Real Estate Investing School Podcast! In this episode, host Joe Jensen interviews Dave Seymour, a former firefighter turned real estate mogul who got his start in the industry during the 2008 crash. Dave shares how financial hardship and an exhausting 120-hour work week led him to invest $27,000 in real estate education—despite being in pre-foreclosure. That investment marked a turning point, igniting a transformation fueled by mindset and implementation. He recounts his first wholesale deal that earned him $5,000 and how it validated his new path, ultimately leading to a successful career in flipping, wholesaling, and multifamily investing. Dave emphasizes that implementation and accountability are more valuable than inspiration alone, reflecting on how few of his peers followed through after the same training. As the conversation evolves, Dave discusses the strategic progression from small real estate deals to larger multifamily acquisitions and eventually into capital management and lending. He attributes his success to building the right team, leveraging partnerships, and continuously expanding his toolset. He stresses the importance of personal growth, faith over fear, and staying grounded through values rather than ego. Dave also critiques the over-saturation of so-called "experts" online and urges aspiring investors to live a life worthy of storytelling. He closes by explaining how today's market requires wealth protection over quick returns, and that long-term success comes from steady, intentional investing—especially in multifamily real estate.

This was a fun chat with someone I met through another coaching group for entrprenuers. Erin and I can appreciate each others' sense of humor... and being able to laugh is high value! We got caught here in the beginning laughing over Charmander... anyone have kids that used to play Pokemon?? We discuss the challenges and opportunities surrounding homeownership in today's market, specifically focusing on owner financing as a powerful, yet often overlooked strategy. The conversation addresses the difficulties faced by younger generations in buying homes due to soaring prices and high-interest rates, and how traditional bank financing may no longer be the only or best option. Instead, owner financing—where the seller acts as the lender—can unlock trillions in home equity held mostly by baby boomers, creating a win-win scenario for both sellers and buyers. We cover how government policies and monetary interventions during and after COVID-19 have distorted housing markets, driving up prices and making homeownership inaccessible for many. They emphasize that many boomers own homes free and clear, holding substantial equity that can be leveraged through owner financing to provide flexible, lower-interest loans to younger buyers. This method bypasses traditional bank loans, reduces transaction costs, and can offer better terms for both parties. The discussion also dives into practical advice on how to approach owner financing deals, including how buyers can find sellers willing to finance, the importance of having at least a 10% down payment, and how owner financing documents work similarly to bank loans but without the middleman. The conversation highlights the tax advantages and income stability for sellers who carry the loan, and the benefit to buyers who can secure better interest rates and terms. The value of fostering personal relationships and trust between parties is stressed, along with the need for proper legal guidance. They also touch on common misconceptions about owner financing, the risks of poorly structured notes, and the secondary market for selling these loans. The interview concludes with encouragement for people to explore owner financing as a strategic alternative to conventional home buying, especially amid current market volatility and economic uncertainty, offering hope and actionable insights for those feeling priced out or stuck.

Jason has a conversation with Julian Domanico, sales associate with BHHS Fox & Roach's office The Harper in Rittenhouse Square about the pyschology of a real estate transaction. We'll touch upon Julian's background in psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, how the use of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) relates to his own real estate business driving successful transactions, and how modulating and controling your own behavior to stressful situations may lead to the desired behavioral outcomes with your clients and co-op agents. Fascinating!

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens sits down with Joel Perso for a forward-looking conversation about the 2030 Real Estate Team. Together, they unpack the five business models available to real estate agents and team leaders, how to align those models with your vision and season of life, and what it really takes to build freedom, profitability, and sustainability into your business. From the “ATM Cash Machine” model to traditional teams and hybrid mega-organizations, Joel and John break down the pros, cons, and exit strategies of each. They also preview how AI, fractional leadership, and new business structures will reshape what winning real estate teams look like in the years ahead. Whether you're an agent trying to scale, a team leader considering your next evolution, or simply curious about the future of the industry, this episode provides a roadmap for thinking bigger about your business model. What You'll Learn in This Episode The Five Real Estate Business Models The ATM Model: high profit, low freedom—and why the only exit strategy is asset acquisition Leverage Models: adding licensed support to create time for a “plus one” revenue stream Traditional Teams: the in-production vs. out-of-production dilemma Team Ridge: scaling with headcount, leadership, and agent as your customer Hybrid Models: why mixing leads teams with traditional teams may define the next five years Freedom vs. Profitability How each model fits on the freedom/profitability quadrant Why lifestyle creep can kill your exit strategy The mindset shifts required to move from one model to the next Exit Strategies & Long-Term Growth How to avoid the trap of selling yourself until you retire Why joint ventures in mortgage, title, or home services open new doors The path to creating scalable, acquirable businesses in real estate Vision & Alignment Choosing the right vehicle based on your strengths, season of life, and vision Why leadership—not just systems—determines scalability The importance of aligning goals with values and family support Resources & Mentions Agent to CEO 2025 (Cleveland) – Business Model Canvas Framework John Kitchens Executive Coaching → Final Takeaway There's no “one-size-fits-all” for building a real estate business. Each model—from solo ATM producers to large-scale teamridges—comes with tradeoffs in profit, freedom, and leadership requirements. The key is aligning your vision, strengths, and season of life with the right vehicle to get you where you want to go. “These are business models. These are not ways to be an agent—these are ways to build a real estate business.” – Joel Perso Connect with Us: Instagram:  LinkedIn:  Facebook:    If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to subscribe and leave a review.

Nick Price, Florida-based real estate investor, broker, and founder of First Lending Network. With over a decade of experience flipping houses, house hacking, and leading $30M+ in real estate transactions, Nick shares how he built businesses, scaled investments, and now helps investors unlock smarter financing solutions. Through his brokerage, Price Properties, Nick has guided buyers, sellers, and investors across everything from rental properties to mid-sized development projects.
