In this episode, I sat down with Peter Sack, CEO of Chicago Atlantic, a private credit powerhouse specializing in high-yield, alternative investments that most traditional institutions avoid. We went deep into the cannabis industry, why it's misunderstood, and how Peter's firm uses strategic lending to achieve equity-like returns while minimizing risk. He also broke down what real “downside protection” looks like and why being a focused expert in a niche beats dabbling in saturated markets. Whether you're an operator seeking growth capital or an investor looking for alpha, this episode is a masterclass in unconventional wealth building. -- Peter Sack is a Managing Partner at Chicago Atlantic and serves as CEO of Chicago Atlantic BDC, Inc., as well as Co-CEO of Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance, Inc. (NASDAQ: REFI). With a robust background in credit investing and portfolio management across various capital structures, Peter has a keen focus on alternative investments, particularly in underserved sectors like the U.S. cannabis industry. Prior to his tenure at Chicago Atlantic, he was a Principal at BC Partners Credit, where he founded the firm's cannabis vertical and managed a portfolio exceeding $100 million in middle-market private loans. Peter also held the position of Associate at Atlas Holdings LLC, concentrating on distressed manufacturing and distribution companies globally. He holds an MBA from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and a BA from Yale University. Additionally, Peter is multilingual, fluent in Mandarin Chinese and Spanish.

In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I share powerful insights from a panel I recently joined at the IMN conference, where we tackled one of the hottest topics in the industry right now: AI in real estate. From hedge fund managers to mom-and-pop investors, everyone's asking the same thing—will AI take over our space? My answer: no, but it will play a massive role. I break down the areas where AI is helping (like underwriting and tenant screening), and the places where it simply can't replace human judgment—like negotiation, construction, and title. I also share a personal story about buying my home that underscores why human interaction will always matter. If you're a real estate pro, this episode is your wake-up call to use AI as a tool—not a replacement. --   Thank you to Mando for supporting today's podcast! Stay Fresh, Stay Confident with Mando!

In this episode, I sit down with Logan Forsyth — co-founder of Media Scaling — whose team has generated over 5 BILLION views and 24 million followers for top personal and consumer brands. If you're trying to grow your personal brand, dominate Instagram, or figure out why your content isn't converting, this is the episode you need. We talk about: Why personal brand is your #1 asset The sub-account strategy that's changing the game Why 2 short-form videos per day is the sweet spot What metrics actually matter (it's not just likes) How to use ChatGPT to craft your entire content strategy Why organic reach is STILL alive and how to use it If you're an entrepreneur, content creator, coach, investor, or just someone who wants to build digital leverage — this one is for you.

In this solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I really view marketing after nearly two decades in the real estate investing game. I've spent tens of millions of dollars on marketing, and let me tell you—most people get it wrong. They treat marketing like a cost, not an investment. In this episode, I share what's actually worked for me, how I think about branding vs. marketing, and why it's critical to set proper expectations for ROI. I break down different marketing verticals—from cold calling and direct mail to Facebook ads and TV—and explain which ones build brand recognition and which are better for quick lead generation. Whether you've got a small or large budget, I'll help you figure out how to spend smarter and build something that lasts. This is everything I wish someone told me when I got started.   --   -- Thank you to Mando for supporting today's podcast! Stay Fresh, Stay Confident with Mando! Tired of body odor?

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest myths in real estate investing — that bigger is always better. After 18 years in the game, I've learned that chasing more leads, building bigger teams, and spending more on marketing doesn't automatically mean more profit. In fact, it can crush your margins. I share how focusing on lead conversion, leveraging tech like LeadDetector.io, Rocketly CRM, and AI-driven data, and running a lean, efficient operation can make you way more money with fewer people. My goal is to show you that you don't need a massive team or huge overhead to hit $100K months — you just need the right systems, the right mindset, and the discipline to focus on profit over vanity metrics. -- Resources & Tools Mentioned: ✅ LeadDetector.io — Capture 20-30% more leads that never opt in: https://leaddetector.io✅ Rocket Sites — Done-for-you investor websites that convert: https://rocketsites.com✅ Rocketly CRM — AI-driven CRM with lead nurturing automation: https://rocketlycrm.com✅ REI Lead Machine — Pull high-quality, AI-enhanced seller lists: https://reileadmachine.com -- Thank you to our partners for supporting today's episode!

In this episode, Mark Stubler, founder of Joe Home Buyer, shares how he and his partner scaled their real estate business to 80 franchises by leveraging the right people, systems, and strategies. He breaks down the visionary-integrator dynamic, the power of hiring a COO to handle operations, and why franchising offers a proven roadmap for success. Mark also reveals the three core marketing strategies that drive real estate deals—cold calling, direct mail, and web marketing—and explains why managing leads effectively is more important than just generating more of them.

In this episode, I break down the four key pillars that have shaped my success—Mind, Body, Connections, and Business—and why most people stay stuck because they ignore one (or all) of them.

If you're feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like you're not reaching your full potential, this is the wake-up call you need.

FREE Training: To Learn how to acquire properties for as little as $4,000, Go to: FreeCrashCourse.com Visit the U.S. Tax Lien Association Website: USTaxLienAssociation.com -- In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I sit down with Tony Martinez, a 33-year veteran in tax lien investing and founder of the U.S. Tax Lien Association. Tony reveals how he acquires properties for as little as $4,000–$20,000—free and clear, with no mortgage or liens—using Over-the-Counter (OTC) Tax Deed Acquisitions, a strategy that bypasses competitive tax auctions. He explains how counties hold thousands of tax-defaulted properties, why most investors overlook these opportunities, and how his 14-point research system ensures he only buys profitable properties. Tony debunks common myths about tax liens, warns against bad information in the industry, and shares real-life case studies of deals where he and his students have turned small investments into huge profits. If you're struggling to find off-market deals, this episode is a must-listen—and Tony's FreeCrashCourse.com is the perfect place to start.

An undergraduate from Georgia State University, Brandon gained his degree in Operations Management from the Krannert School of Management at Purdue University, where he also earned his Entrepreneur Certificate.

Brandon joins me today to discuss his journey into real estate that began in 2016 when he abruptly fell off the corporate ladder and needed a solution to provide for his new wife and baby. He shares his early cold calling strategies and why the first 'NO' is not the final 'NO," and why you shouldn't be burning through your cold call list too quickly.

We really started to see some really strong results." – Brandon Barnes "A cold caller needs to have their own set of follow-ups of people that immediately said 'No Not Interested' but they're going to come back to them because that is going to even out the amount of leads that they're generating over time." – Brandon Barnes "Sending 50 offers is one thing but being able to follow up on all the offers that you sent is the other piece." – Brandon Barnes "Literally, I hired acquisition manager in November - it was around Thanksgiving when I did the interview.

In today's episode of Passion for Real Estate Investments, Founder of Send More Offers, Brandon Barnes, talks about wholesaling. Prior to investing in real estate, Brandon worked as a production supervisor. After being fired from his job, Brandon made the decision to start investing in real estate through wholesaling. A year after founding his real estate company, Brandon stepped away from his day-to-day duties, and now focuses on building the business and leading his team. Brandon gives back through the Send More Offers Coaching Program, where he teaches others to make money in real estate. Brandon is also the owner of REI Live! Atlanta, a monthly meetup group. How is Brandon able to continuously find the right deals for wholesaling? He tells us about dealing with competition, how he's pivoted his business to weather the Covid-19 pandemic, and how he determines the value of a property virtually. Brandon also talks about his favorite tools, his educational initiatives, and hiring VAs. If you're interested in becoming a wholesaler, or you want to learn about the advantages of wholesaling, or you're looking for a way to get into real estate investing, this episode is for you.   Highlights from the interview Wholesaling is “the art of finding off-market properties at a discount.” “Timing is everything. If you can get in front of the right person at the right time, just when they need you, you're in the best shot to be able to make that homeowner a client and, ultimately, a customer of yours.” “We deliver an offer to absolutely everybody that we speak to.” “We're truth-tellers, and we're looking for truth-seekers.” Brandon's Virtual Assistants generate at least 20 leads every week.

A year after founding his real estate company, Brandon stepped away from his day-to-day duties, and now focuses on building the business and leading his team. Brandon gives back through the Send More Offers Coaching Program, where he teaches others to make money in real estate. Brandon is also the owner of REI Live! Atlanta, a monthly meetup group. How is Brandon able to continuously find the right deals for wholesaling? He tells us about dealing with competition, how he's pivoted his business to weather the Covid-19 pandemic, and how he determines the value of a property virtually. Brandon also talks about his favorite tools, his educational initiatives, and hiring VAs. If you're interested in becoming a wholesaler, or you want to learn about the advantages of wholesaling, or you're looking for a way to get into real estate investing, this episode is for you. Highlights from the interview Wholesaling is “the art of finding off-market properties at a discount.” “Timing is everything. If you can get in front of the right person at the right time, just when they need you, you're in the best shot to be able to make that homeowner a client and, ultimately, a customer of yours.” “We deliver an offer to absolutely everybody that we speak to.” “We're truth-tellers, and we're looking for truth-seekers.” Brandon's Virtual Assistants generate at least 20 leads every week.

Brandon Barnes is a real estate investor and owner of REI Live! Atlanta, a monthly meetup group. After being fired from his job as a production supervisor, he made an immediate pivot and chose to become a real estate investor and master a strategy called wholesaling. Many times, Brandon was faced with a difficult choice, get another job and spend years trapped in a cubicle or work toward becoming a successful entrepreneur; with his back against the wall, he chose to keep his eyes on the prize as an entrepreneur. He quickly scaled his real estate company within 1 year and then got fired, but this time was different: he fired himself. This gave Brandon the flexibility to focus on building the business and leading his team. His team now operates his company successfully without his day-to-day involvement. He is passionate about sharing his expertise and coaching students to take action and make money in real estate with his Send More Offers Coaching Program.

Welcome back to the Cashflow 2 Freedom everybody! On today's episode I have the pleasure of sitting down with real estate investor Brian Trippe. We focus in heavily on the concept and critical importance of building your network. Your network is everything - deal flow, financing, investors all come from your network. This solidifies the common theme we've talked about several times on the Cashflow 2 Freedom podcast, and that is that success cannot and does not happen on an island. You absolutely have to build and maintain these relationships. Everything is built on people, and we have to be able to attract the right people for your network with common core values? So how do you do this? What's the key? It's a great question and one that we answer in several ways in today's podcast. These fundamentals will either make or break you, no matter what direction you choose for your life or your goals. We'll cover these fundamentals in depth and how you can set yourself and your endeavors up for success. We also talk about the technical aspects of real estate. Brian shares what he believes will happen in the real estate market and in markets across the world in the near future with the elections coming up. Brian also shares how he is preparing for those potential events. Brain also shares his advice for those who are just starting or looking to start investing in real estate. Where should you look? What should you look for? Who should you talk to? Brian covers all of these topics and more. Be sure to check out REI Live, an online community that helps to connect like minded real estate professionals. https://rei.live/ Thanks for listening everybody, AJ
