I was thrilled to chat with Dana Jenkins and Colin Davis of the Instagram account @un.flipping (who may have coined the phrase!) and have blown up online sharing their five-year journey to add the soul back into their thoroughly flipped mid-century home.In Today's Episode You'll Hear:How to see past a flip to what might be your dream home.

Episode 263 How Suzanne Built a Renovation Empire in Just One YearIntroduction
Did God really say you can't do this, or you can't do that? This kind of thought gets in our minds and then we nurture the thought. We cultivate the thought and so begins the process of eventually firing God and replacing him with me, ourselves, and off the rails we go to live happily ever after, or maybe not. So let me just bring this down to us again. I want to keep warning us to not let this stir up in us anger with finger pointed to some group out there, that is absolutely fruitless, if not outright uncchristian.The thing for us to do is draw this onto ourselves. So let me show you what I mean. I am at the center of futile thinking. At the center of futile thinking, in other words, is the me and everything the me wants. I want to do what I want to do. I know best. I think this is good. I think that is right. I want to do whatever I feel like doing. What's true for me is true for me, even if it's not actually true. If I think it's true or want it to be true or think it should be true, then it is true enough for me even if it is not objectively or actually true according to reality as established by God. And if all of this is starting to sound just a tad bit absurd, then I am communicating very clearly because it is.
GS#436&437 May 13, 2014. Robert Trent Jones Sr. is regarded as the most historically significant golf architect of the 20th century. The fabric of golf in America - possibly the world - is embodied in the extraordinary career of Robert Trent Jones Sr. in golf course design. In this conversation with New York Times bestselling author and internationally distinguished historian James R. Hansen, he shares the compelling life story of the man who designed or redesigned a staggering 400+ courses spread over 43 U.S. states and 27 other nations, including instantly recognizable names as Spyglass Hill in California, and Ballybunion in Ireland. James R. Hansen is a Professor of History at Auburn University in Alabama, a lifelong golfer, and his first book in 2005 "First Man" is the only authorized biography of astronaut Neil Armstrong.This episode is brought to you by BreakfastBalls.Golf.

Renovation or rebuild? That's the question many homeowners face when their current space no longer meets their needs. In this episode, Donnie and E break down the fundamentals of home renovation, sharing insider knowledge that helps you make informed decisions about transforming your living spaces.The kitchen remains renovation central for most homeowners, but approaches have evolved. Rather than gutting everything, strategic updates to cabinets, countertops, and backsplashes can deliver dramatic results without breaking the bank. Small changes like hardware upgrades or cabinet painting offer budget-friendly alternatives, though Donnie cautions that even seemingly minor updates can add up quickly when multiplied across an entire kitchen.Master bathroom renovations reveal fascinating shifts in homeowner preferences. The once-coveted soaker tub is rapidly losing popularity, with many choosing to replace these rarely-used fixtures with expansive walk-in showers. This transformation typically involves converting the tub area to a shower while repurposing the original shower space for additional storage – a perfect example of how renovations can improve both aesthetics and functionality.Perhaps most surprising is the dining room revolution. As formal dining becomes increasingly rare in busy households, these spaces often sit unused. Creative homeowners are converting dining rooms into valuable additions: extra bedrooms that boost home value, expanded kitchen areas with island seating, or oversized pantries that keep countertops clutter-free. These adaptations reflect evolving lifestyle needs while maximizing every square foot.For exterior updates, deck renovations deliver exceptional return on investment. Donnie shares a brilliant hack from a viral Instagram post: flipping weathered deck boards to expose the less-damaged underside, then sanding and sealing for several more years of life. It's this kind of practical, money-saving advice that makes renovation accessible to more homeowners.Whether you're considering minor updates or contemplating a complete rebuild, this episode provides the guidance you need to approach your project with confidence. Visit thecarolinacontractor.com to connect with Donnie and submit your home improvement questions for future episodes.

The politics of the world matters; right, left, Democrat, Republican, conservative, progressive. But the church is a community of those whose first identity is who they are in the Trinity and to the Trinity. So, our first passion and first agenda and first focus is not right, left, progressive, conservative, Democrat, Republican. It is kingdom. It is the way of Jesus. Ephesians 4 and verse 15, “Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.”
Target Market Insights: Multifamily Real Estate Marketing Tips
Ryan Sudeck is the CEO of Sage Investment Group, where he leads a team focused on addressing the affordable housing crisis through hotel-to-apartment conversions. With a background in mergers and acquisitions at Amazon, Samsung, and Redfin, Ryan has overseen more than 24 successful adaptive reuse projects nationwide. Under his leadership, Sage operates an evergreen fund with over 400 investors, creating high-quality, naturally affordable housing at scale. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Hotels are valued differently than apartments, creating a 40%+ value lift when converted to residential use. Sage Investment Group has completed 24 hotel-to-apartment conversions across six states, with 100–200 units per property. Units are typically 300-square-foot studios with full kitchens and modern amenities. Strong diligence on entitlements, construction, and lease-up is critical for success. Patience in acquisitions—sometimes two years per deal—is key to meeting return thresholds. Topics From M&A to Affordable Housing Ryan's career in corporate acquisitions prepared him to lead Sage. Joined as CEO to scale a mission-driven approach to solving the housing shortage. Why Hotel Conversions Work Hotels trade at higher cap rates than apartments, creating built-in arbitrage. Conversion costs average $100K per unit—about half the replacement cost of new builds. Final product: fully renovated studios with fitness centers, coworking, and community amenities. Execution Risks and Lessons Learned Entitlements: converting from commercial to residential requires local approvals. Construction: inspections, sewer scopes, and cutting open walls before purchase to avoid surprises. Lease-up: conservative rent assumptions and regional property managers ensure stabilized occupancy. Capital Stack and Returns Evergreen fund supplies 25–35% of equity alongside LPs. Senior debt from community banks or private debt funds covers 60–75%. Renovation costs run $35K–$45K per unit; recent refis have returned significant equity. Why Not Ground-Up or Value-Add? Ground-up costs 2x more per unit and faces supply delays. Value-add multifamily is overpriced with thin margins post-2021. Conversions provide stronger risk-adjusted returns.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Kent Ritter, CEO and founder of Hudson Investing. Kent's path into real estate began after selling his healthcare consulting business, which left him looking for ways to diversify his capital. Starting as a passive investor in multifamily syndications, he eventually transitioned into active investing, experimenting with house flipping and single-family rentals before fully committing to multifamily. In 2019, he launched Hudson Investing, a firm focused on building wealth through multifamily syndications with a strong presence in the Midwest. Jonathan and Kent explore the turning points in Kent's career, including his decision to bring property management in-house. Kent explains how frustration with third-party managers pushed him to create his own team, which improved operational control, reduced turnover costs, and allowed him to align company culture with resident experience. They also discuss renovation strategies, with Kent emphasizing the importance of investing in upgrades residents use every day, such as faucets, thermostats, and cabinet pulls, while balancing affordability and return on investment. The conversation also touches on the advantages of focusing on Midwest markets, where Hudson Investing has found consistent demand and steady fundamentals. Kent highlights the value of building a strong investor community, noting that transparency, education, and shared opportunities foster long-term success. For both passive and active investors, this episode shows how thoughtful leadership, strategic decisions, and multifamily real estate can create reliable, long-term growth. In this episode, you will hear: Kent's transition from healthcare consulting to real estate investing Lessons he gained as a passive investor before becoming an operator The benefits of bringing property management in-house Renovation strategies that balance affordability with meaningful upgrades How reducing turnover drives stronger property performance The value of curb appeal and amenities alongside interior finishes Opportunities found in Midwest multifamily markets The role of community and investor alignment in scaling a portfolio Tax strategies that can improve investment outcomes Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

For the past four weeks, we’ve been a series called Transformation, in which we’ve been looking at the ways God wants to change us from the caterpillars He found us as into the butterflies He wants us to be. It is not just a slight adjustment — it’s a radical transformation, a metamorphosis powered by the Holy Spirit. Maybe, the biggest takeaway so far is that the process starts on the inside and works its way to the outside. Nothing is more crucial to deep, lasting change than our thoughts and attitudes, and Romans 12:2 says they need to be renewed. The word renewed means renovated, and a key part of any renovation is demo day. That’s where you rip out the old and remove the stuff that just doesn’t fit the new design. That’s the name of the message and our focus this week: finding out what needs to be demolished from our thoughts and attitudes.
Immaturity is one of the glaring problems facing the church in our country right now. Immaturity. Christian immaturity. Christians acting immature. There are far too many who claim to be Christian, standing in their highchairs with nothing on but a diaper, demanding dessert right here and right now. Christians who have not and are not, allowing the gospel to penetrate their pathologies and transform them into a new person who increasingly thinks, feels, acts, reacts, chooses, and responds the way Jesus would if he were in their shoes and in their situation.
In this episode of the Neighborhood Ventures Podcast, Bart Diehl sits down with co-founder John Kobierski to share updates on several of our multifamily assets. We discuss how occupancy has improved at Venture on Coulter, the renovations boosting rents at Venture on 52nd, strategic upgrades underway at Venture on Country Club, and the continued strong performance of Venture on Route 66 in Flagstaff. Together, these updates highlight our focus on disciplined operations, thoughtful renovations, and long-term value creation for our investors.
City Manager Brian Johnson joins host Rico Figliolini on Peachtree Corners Life for a practical update on projects shaping the city's next few years. He walks through the newly developed Simpsonwood Park master plan—designed to keep the park passive and natural while adding ADA-friendly access, renovated bathrooms, an updated chapel, selective forestry management, and a modest river overlook. Johnson also explains why the city is outsourcing maintenance of the Peachtree Parkway median so residents finally see consistent, five-day-a-week care despite legacy design constraints.The episode dives into traffic and road fixes at East Jones Bridge and 141 (longer turn lanes, better alignment, and a right-turn slip lane), the ESPLOST renewal on the ballot, and the last phase of the Waterside development—now tracking at roughly half the density initially allowed and focused on equity (for-sale) housing. With candid context on what's been approved or denied since cityhood, plus how extended-stay conversions and the Housing Authority factor in, this conversation is a clear, chart-backed look at how Peachtree Corners balances growth with character.Key takeawaysSimpsonwood Park will remain a passive park—no ballfields, pickleball, mountain biking, or major programming.Plan includes ADA-accessible paved paths, renovated bathrooms (including one closer to the river), resurfaced parking, and a chapel renovation.Selective forestry and wildlife/erosion work will improve long-term health of the park.City is outsourcing median maintenance on Peachtree Parkway; crews will be dedicated five days a week for mowing, edging, litter removal, and plant adjustments.Median design differs from Johns Creek (at-grade vs. raised), which has made upkeep harder; outsourcing addresses consistency and appearance.East Jones Bridge & 141: entrance realignment, longer left-turn stacking, and a right-turn slip lane to move traffic more safely and quickly.No municipal election this cycle for three council seats (no challengers qualified), but ESPLOST renewal is on the county ballot.Waterside final phase moves forward with for-sale (equity) units; overall buildout drops from up to 916 approved units to ~450.Post-2012 housing approvals show a measured approach—some apartment proposals approved, many reduced to townhomes or denied.Extended-stay hotel issues are being addressed, including a supervised conversion to efficiency units via the Housing Authority.Timestamp:(00:03:29) Simpsonwood Park master plan details and community input.(00:09:55) Renovation of chapel, bathrooms, and forestry management plans.(00:15:27) Outsourcing median maintenance on Peachtree Parkway.(00:24:27) Election update and ESPLOST renewal.(00:27:03) Waterside development's final phase and reduced density.(00:30:12) East Jones Bridge road improvements and traffic flow changes.(00:36:37) Housing trends, multifamily approvals, and denials over time.(00:42:41) Extended stay hotel conversions and housing authority oversight.(00:45:47) Balancing growth, community resistance, and long-term city planning.

Ever dreamed of quitting your 9–5, moving somewhere tropical, and starting fresh as your second act?
In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Lindsay Davis, CEO of Spartan Invest, to explore the world of turn-key real estate. Lindsay shares her journey from college landlord to building one of the leading turn-key investment companies in the Southeast. Their discussion covers the advantages of passive investing, the realities of property management, and how Spartan's approach makes real estate accessible for investors nationwide. Lindsay began her investing journey as a college student in Alabama, renting rooms to reduce tuition costs. After a rocky start as a landlord and a stint in corporate America, she shifted to flipping houses before finding stability and scale in rental properties. This led her to co-found Spartan Invest, a full-service turn-key provider offering single-family homes in Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia. For investors hesitant about the headaches of being a landlord, Lindsay explains how Spartan handles property acquisition, renovation, tenant placement, and ongoing management. By focusing on durability, affordability, and transparency, Spartan delivers rental properties designed for long-term performance and reduced maintenance. Jonathan and Lindsay also discuss the profile of today's turn-key investors, from W-2 employees seeking diversification to high earners priced out of their own markets. They cover the importance of choosing landlord-friendly states, understanding pro forma numbers, and staying engaged with your property manager. With entry points averaging around $165,000 and financing options that include competitive rates, Spartan opens the door to investors ready to grow their portfolios without the grind of flipping or self-management. If you've ever wondered how to build a real estate legacy with minimal stress, this episode provides a clear look at how turn-key investing works and why it's an attractive strategy in today's housing market. In this episode, you will hear: Lindsay's first experience as a college landlord and the lessons it provided Spartan's shift from flipping to rental properties Advantages of a one-stop-shop turn-key model Renovation priorities designed for long-term durability Types of investors who benefit most from turn-key investing Key factors to evaluate when choosing property managers The role of consistency and early investing in building wealth Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
