In this episode of the Rent To Retirement Podcast, host Matthew Seyoum sits down with Rent To Retirement investor Colin to discuss how he went from exploring Airbnb investments to owning two long-term rental properties—and preparing for his next acquisition. Colin explains why the operational demands of short-term rentals did not fit his lifestyle, how turnkey real estate helped him invest outside his local market, and why having an experienced team made his second purchase dramatically easier than his first.

In this episode, Chris Benedict shares his extensive experience in real estate investment, management, and fund creation. He discusses the importance of operational excellence, long-term investing, and building trust in the industry.   Professional Real Estate Investors - How we can help you: Investor Fuel Mastermind:  Learn more about the Investor Fuel Mastermind, including 100% deal financing, massive discounts from vendors and sponsors you're already using, our world class community of over 150 members, and SO much more here: http://www.investorfuel.com/apply   Investor Machine Marketing Partnership:  Are you looking for consistent, high quality lead generation?

Every PCS is a chance to buy an investment property with zero or near-zero out of pocket, and most service members let it pass. I walk through the exact strategy I used three times across three duty stations: buy a multi-unit or house-hack-able property using the VA loan, live for free while you're there, then turn it into a cash-flowing rental when orders come through again. I cover the full step-by-step, the common objections (deployments, market drops, not knowing where to start), and the real math behind why pocketing your BAH instead of spending it changes everything.

Most people did not deliberately choose the life they are currently living. They finished school, found the first reasonable opportunity available, started working, accumulated responsibilities, and continued moving in the same direction because that was what everyone around them appeared to be doing. Years later, they may have a career, a mortgage, children, bills, and an income they cannot afford to lose. Yet they still feel like something is missing. In today's episode, Wayne and Gabby examine how people fall into careers and lifestyles they never consciously selected, why changing direction becomes harder as responsibilities increase, and why so many nurses, tradespeople, oil and gas workers, and other professionals turn to real estate investing. The goal is not necessarily to quit your job tomorrow. The goal is to begin making small decisions that gradually change the trajectory of your life. Wayne explains how he reached a point where he made one clear decision: he was not going to continue following the same path as everyone else. That decision did not create freedom overnight. It led to years of small businesses, experiments, side hustles, uncomfortable choices, and eventually real estate investing. Those small decisions compounded until Wayne and Gabby had built a life that allowed them to spend more time with their daughter, create businesses, help other investors, and choose how they spend their days. Gabby explains why they would rather help thousands of ordinary Canadians purchase one solid rental property than only help a few people build enormous portfolios. One property may not change everything immediately, but it can improve retirement, provide additional income, create equity, and give the next generation a stronger starting point. The first property is not about becoming a billionaire. It is about proving to yourself that another path is possible.

Brian Wiley and Jeremiah Bates open the show with a discussion on concentrated stock positions, portfolio rebalancing, and the challenges investors face after large gains. Using examples ranging from Micron stock to broader market opportunities, they explore diversification, risk management, investor psychology, and the ongoing battle between fear and greed. The conversation also examines what it really means to be wealthy, how to think about financial independence, and why having a plan matters more than chasing the next investment opportunity. The second hour focuses on retirement income planning and highly appreciated assets, particularly rental properties. They discuss capital gains concerns, 1031 exchanges, Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs), step-up in basis rules, and strategies for investors who want to simplify their lives without creating unnecessary tax consequences. They also cover Treasury bills, retirement withdrawal planning, income-focused investing, and how to evaluate whether your assets are positioned to support your long-term goals.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Jeremiah Bates & Brian Wiley ————— Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

That one myth has kept more people stuck on the sidelines than bad credit ever has, and it cost me years and deals I will never get back. In this episode of Wealth Within Reach, I am breaking down four real ways to buy your first or next rental property without draining your savings or putting 20% down. I started with a $3,000 down payment on my very first property, and 10 years later that one decision turned into 30-plus doors and multiple millions in equity. So if you have been waiting until you "save up enough," this is the episode that shows you a faster way in. Here is what we get into: The vacation home loan that lets you buy with just 10% down at primary-home interest rates, the same strategy we used to buy our North Georgia cabin at a 3% rate and rent it out when we are not using it. The step-up strategy, my favorite low-barrier move where you buy a home to live in with 3% to 5% down, live there a year, then turn it into a rental, plus how to stack house hacking on top of it even if you have a family, kids, and pets like I did. The family opportunity mortgage almost nobody talks about, the one that let one of my clients buy a home for her aging mom with 5% down and save $58,000 in the process. The bonus equity play for people who do not want to move at all and want to use the equity already sitting in their home through a HELOC to fund the next deal. If you are smart, ambitious, and done treating real estate like a hobby, this one is for you. Watch to the end because the bonus strategy is the one most people can actually use right now in 2026.

Should landlords allow pets in rental properties? That is the question Wayne and Gabby tackle in today's episode. Pets are a huge part of people's lives. Dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and other animals are not just "extras" for many tenants. They are part of the family. But for landlords and real estate investors, pets also create real concerns. What if the dog damages the floors? What if the cat scratches the walls? What if the yard gets destroyed? What if the smell becomes a problem? What if the tenant moves out and the security deposit is not enough to cover the damage? In this episode, Wayne and Gabby break down the real risks of allowing pets in rental properties and explain why they still believe landlords should strongly consider being pet friendly. Gabby explains why a large portion of rental applicants have pets and why saying "no pets" can dramatically reduce your tenant pool. If most tenants are applying with a pet, then refusing pets may leave you with fewer applicants, fewer good options, and a harder time filling vacancies. Wayne and Gabby also discuss the difference between pet damage and increased wear and tear. A pet chewing carpet, scratching walls, or damaging doors may be considered damage. But a dog running up and down the stairs, wearing down carpet faster, creating lawn spots, or adding more hair into the furnace and duct system may create long-term wear and tear that landlords need to plan for. They also explain the difference between pet deposits, pet fees, and monthly pet rent. In Alberta, landlords cannot collect a security deposit higher than one month's rent, even if they try to call the extra amount a pet deposit. However, landlords can structure pet fees or monthly pet rent to help account for the increased wear and tear that pets may create. Wayne and Gabby also talk about why tenant screening matters more than the pet itself. The real question is not only, "What kind of pet do they have?" The better question is, "Is this tenant a responsible pet owner?" A strong tenant who takes responsibility for their pet, communicates well, has good references, and respects the property is much lower risk than a tenant who avoids responsibility, ignores problems, or does not take care of the home. They also discuss condos, bylaws, dog breed restrictions, pet size restrictions, and why investors need to review condominium documents carefully before promising a tenant that their pet will be approved. If you own rental properties or are buying your first one, this episode will help you understand how to think about pets, pet fees, pet risk, inspections, tenant screening, and why being pet friendly may actually help your rental property business. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why pets are such an important part of many tenants' lives Why landlords are often nervous about allowing pets Why saying "no pets" can reduce your tenant pool Why Wayne and Gabby generally recommend considering pet-friendly rentals Why cats and dogs create different types of risk Why dogs may create more wear and tear on flooring and yards Why cats can create odor and scratching concerns Why yard damage from dogs can be expensive and difficult to fix Why pet damage and normal wear and tear are not the same thing Why landlords need to plan for increased replacement costs Why pets can shorten the lifespan of carpet, flooring, and other finishes Why furnace filters, ducts, and HVAC systems may need more attention with pets Why quarterly inspections are important when allowing pets Why tenant screening matters more than the pet itself Why responsible pet owners are lower-risk tenants Why pet fees and pet rent can help offset increased wear and tear Why Alberta landlords need to understand the rules around security deposits Why "pet deposit" language can create problems Why condo bylaws may restrict pets, breeds, size, or number of animals Why investors need to review condo documents before approving pets Why pet-friendly properties can stand out in a competitive rental market Why the best landlords build systems instead of avoiding risk completely Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 July 24, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Show Notes In this episode of Be a Smarter Homeowner, host Beth Dodson talks with Christopher Seman from N-Hance, a company helping homeowners rethink kitchen and cabinet updates. Instead of assuming every outdated kitchen requires a full demolition, Chris explains how cabinet renewal, refinishing, resurfacing, and replacement door fronts can create a dramatic transformation with less cost, less disruption, and a much faster turnaround. Beth and Chris discuss why cabinets are often the first thing people notice in a kitchen, how open floor plans have made kitchen style even more important, and why homeowners should think carefully about whether they are updating for themselves or preparing a home for resale. They also cover current cabinet trends, including the return of natural wood, warmer creams and beiges, bold colors like deep blues and charcoal, and even retro-inspired tones like avocado green and buttery yellow. Chris explains how N-Hance can help homeowners refresh cabinets in as little as three to five days once the project begins, compared to the eight to twelve weeks often required for a full kitchen remodel. They also discuss how cabinet updates can be a smart option for new homeowners, rental property owners, senior living communities, and anyone who wants a high-impact update without committing to a major renovation. Episode Summary Updating a kitchen does not always mean tearing everything out and starting from scratch. In this episode, Beth Dodson speaks with Christopher Seman of N-Hance about smarter, faster, and more affordable ways to update cabinets and transform the look of a kitchen. Chris explains that many homeowners already have functional cabinet boxes and layouts, which means they may not need a full remodel. Instead, changing cabinet color, renewing wood, updating door fronts, replacing hardware, or adding soft-close hinges can create the feeling of a new kitchen without the cost and disruption of a complete renovation. The conversation explores how kitchen trends are shifting away from all-white spaces and toward more personality, natural wood, warmer neutrals, and bold colors. Beth and Chris also talk about the emotional and practical side of remodeling, including how disruption affects family life and why speed matters. For homeowners planning to sell, Chris explains that smaller cabinet updates may offer stronger return-on-investment potential than large luxury remodels. For those planning to stay, he encourages people to have fun, personalize their kitchen, and make choices that fit how they actually want to live. Key Takeaways Cabinet updates can dramatically change the look of a kitchen without requiring a full remodel. A full kitchen remodel may take eight to twelve weeks, while many cabinet renewal projects can be completed in three to five days. Cabinets matter because they take up a large visual portion of the kitchen and often define the style of the space. Homeowners should first decide whether they are updating for personal enjoyment or resale value. Natural wood, creams, beiges, deep blues, charcoal, and retro-inspired colors are gaining popularity. Lighter cabinet colors can help make a kitchen feel larger. Cabinet renewal can be especially helpful for new homeowners trying to prioritize multiple projects. Rental property owners may benefit from fast cabinet refreshes because speed reduces vacancy time. Senior living communities and high-use spaces may also benefit from durable cabinet coatings. A kitchen update does not have to be permanent; cabinet colors can be changed again later at a lower cost than a full remodel.  Chapters 00:40 Introduction to Kitchen Upgrades 03:40 The Importance of Cabinets in Kitchen Design 06:25 Speed and Efficiency of Cabinet Resurfacing 09:32 Current Trends in Kitchen Cabinet Design 12:35 Cost Comparison: Resurfacing vs. Full Remodel 15:32 Return on Investment for Kitchen Updates 18:43 Enhance's Solutions for Rental Properties 21:40 Personalization and Flexibility in Kitchen Design 24:40 Conclusion and Resources for Homeowners

Real estate bookkeeping might not be the most thrilling part of owning a rental property, but it's often the difference between bleeding money each month and earning cash flow you can count on. Today's guest will show you exactly how to get your books in check so you can make your properties even more profitable! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Grace Wills is a CPA, a homeschooling mom, and a self-described “risk-averse” investor. So, when her husband suggested they buy an investment property back in 2018, she was skeptical. However, it didn't take long for that first property to start generating plenty of cash flow, at which point Grace saw that real estate investing was far less “risky” than many other investments. Fast forward to today, and Grace owns a real estate portfolio that's creating long-term wealth for her family, despite losing money on three different house flips. In this episode, she shares the importance of having a mentor to help you navigate the ebbs and flows of real estate, why bookkeeping is one of the most underrated skills, and some of her favorite tools and software for new investors! In This Episode We Cover Why Grace never gave up on real estate (even after three “failed” house flips) The four people every real estate investor needs in their corner The two-part software “stack” every new investor should have The biggest challenges when going into real estate investing with family What to know before putting your rental property in an S corporation Why you should always speak to multiple lenders before getting financing And So Much More!

This is one of the most important episodes Wayne and Gabby have ever recorded. In this episode, Wayne opens with a serious announcement about a rental property, a major loss, and a lesson that every real estate investor needs to hear. But the real lesson is much deeper than the headline. Wayne and Gabby explain how real estate investors lose money, why so many people disappear from the industry after three to five years, and why most failures come from ignoring the fundamentals. This episode is about what actually protects a rental property portfolio: cash flow, reserves, market selection, buying right, sustainable financing, proper systems, and knowing how to survive when the market shifts. Wayne explains why real estate investing is not about looking flashy, collecting doors, chasing gimmicks, or impressing people online. It is about buying the right properties, in the right markets, with strong cash flow and systems that allow the business to survive interest rate spikes, falling rents, rising expenses, bad tenants, insurance increases, property tax changes, and unexpected storms. Wayne and Gabby also discuss the 5% Rule™, why cash flow is the life raft of a rental property business, and why investors should never rely on hope, appreciation, or inflated rents to make a deal work. If you are buying rental properties, thinking about investing, or wondering how to avoid becoming one of the investors who gets wiped out, this episode is worth listening to all the way through. What You'll Learn in This Episode How real estate investors lose money Why most investors fail after three to five years Why cash flow is the life raft of a rental property business Why the 5% Rule™ helps investors avoid dangerous deals Why a property can drop in value without creating a real loss Why you only lock in a loss when you are forced to sell Why strong cash flow helps investors avoid being forced to sell Why interest rate spikes can destroy weak portfolios Why falling rents can expose bad investments Why property taxes and insurance costs need to be planned for Why investors need reserve funds and backup plans Why flashy strategies often come with more risk than people admit Why BRRRRs, flips, multifamily, short-term rentals, developments, and rent-to-own require proper systems Why most residential real estate does not work as a rental property Why investors need to find the small percentage of properties that actually make sense Why buying right matters from day one Why boring rental properties can produce exceptional returns Why systems, fundamentals, market selection, and cash flow matter more than hype Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 June 12, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca/edmontongardensuites101 REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

In this episode of the WIIRE podcast, we're getting personal about the mindset behind building a real estate portfolio as women, beyond the constant “hustle harder” messaging. Using Amelia's journey from taking almost a year off buying to closing on another 11‑unit, we unpack: How we define seasons of scaling and stabilizing in our businesses Why nonstop growth without a stabilizing season leads to burnout, chaos, and risky over‑leverage How we've used pruning (selling what no longer serves us) to create space and capital for better deals The role of divine timing, preparation, and working capital in landing the right opportunities How each property has been a building block, not a home run—and how those reps built our confidence We also share candidly about: Choosing to be the bigger person with tenants, contractors, and lenders Letting go of the need to “win” every conflict to protect our peace How masterminds and community helped us think bigger, invest in coaching, and normalize 7‑figure goals Why being in rooms with ambitious women investors completely changed our trajectory If you're a woman trying to decide when to push, when to rest, and how to think bigger in real estate, we recorded this episode for you.     Resources: Book your spot at WIIRE Summer Camp before it fills up Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant Make sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Leave us a review on Spotify Join our private Facebook Community Connect with us on Instagram

Discover the real differences between flipping and rentals, the biggest mistakes to avoid, and how to choose (or combine) both strategies for maximum income and long‑term ROI.

If you are just getting started in real estate investing, your first move matters. In this episode, Wayne and Gabby answer a listener question from a 28-year-old new investor in Edmonton who recently moved to Canada, works in IT, earns about $80,000 per year, has saved $40,000, and wants to start building long-term wealth through real estate. Wayne breaks down what he would do in this situation and explains why many new investors make mistakes by trying to figure everything out on their own before getting proper education. He also explains why your first property should be chosen based on future rental potential, not just personal preference. Wayne discusses the strategy of buying a property as a primary residence with 5% down, living in it, improving it, and eventually turning it into a rental property. He also explains why this strategy can help new investors stretch limited capital further, why Edmonton townhouses may be one of the best starting points right now, and why investors need to understand cash flow, risk, mortgage paydown, and long-term appreciation before they buy. Wayne and Gabby also talk about the 5% Rule™, why cash flow protects investors during storms like interest rate increases, why cash flow should be saved instead of spent, and why reserves matter. Later in the episode, Wayne explains why raising capital and joint ventures eventually become unavoidable for investors who want to scale beyond their own savings and mortgage capacity. If you are a new investor wondering how to buy your first rental property, this episode will help you think through your first move with more clarity, strategy, and confidence. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why new investors should ask better questions before buying Why your first property can shape your future portfolio Why education matters before making your first move Why many investors regret buying the wrong first property Why Wayne recommends buying with the future tenant in mind Why your first home can become your first rental property How 5% down can help new investors get started Why Edmonton townhouses may be a strong starting point Why buying one property with 20% down is not always the best use of capital How mortgage paydown builds equity over time Why appreciation across multiple properties can accelerate wealth building Why cash flow matters as a risk mitigator Why Wayne does not recommend spending your cash flow too early Why the 5% Rule™ helps investors prepare for storms Why interest rate increases do not have to destroy your portfolio Why scaling eventually requires access to other people's capital Why joint ventures are inevitable for serious investors Why building trust, credibility, and education matters before raising capital Why opportunities do not last forever Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 June 12, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca/edmontongardensuites101 REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

You don't need a big market, huge salary, or even a college degree to invest in real estate. Today's guest had a very simple goal when he started: replace his $12/hour construction job. He's already achieved that, and today, he owns seven rental properties…and counting! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Nathan Shelby has dabbled in several investing strategies, from mobile home lots to fixer uppers. But he's recently landed on a strategy that allows him to use the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) on new construction homes—just without the renovations. Despite investing in a relatively small town, one of these properties appraises for roughly twice the cost to build it, allowing Nathan to pull 100% of his cash out for the next one! Nathan has found his groove in the last couple of years, but it wasn't always smooth sailing. In this episode, he shares some of the biggest mistakes he made early on—pitfalls you can easily avoid. Stay tuned to learn about the systems and tools you should implement on day one, how to dial in your tenant screening process, and why new construction is often easier than renovating! In This Episode We Cover How Nathan scaled to 10 rental units without a big salary or college degree How to find highly profitable real estate deals outside of the MLS Why new construction is often easier than rental renovations Must-have systems and tools to build and scale your real estate portfolio Three of the biggest mistakes new investors make (and how to avoid them) And So Much More!

Blake Yarborough started acquiring rentals in 2009 when everyone else was running from the market, and built his way to 100+ properties and $40 million in real estate. In this episode, he breaks down the leveraged financing strategy he used to scale fast, how he structured 15-year notes to protect himself against rate resets, and why he self-manages instead of handing things off to third-party property managers. He also shares a hard lesson about embezzlement that cost him $5 million and what he missed on the balance sheet that let it happen. If you're building a rental portfolio or thinking about getting back into acquisitions, this one is worth your time.   KEY TALKING POINTS: 0:00 - Intro 0:34 - Blake Yarborough's Journey In Real Estate 11:08 - Losing Money & His Faith 13:31 - Financing Rental Properties 17:27 - His Deer Breeding Business 18:40 - The Real Estate He's Doing Now 21:24 - The Market Right Now & Property Managers 26:09 - Protecting Your Business 30:14 - Closing Thoughts 31:10 - Outro   LINKS: Facebook: Blake Yarborough https://www.facebook.com/blake.yarborough   Website: Capital Concepts https://www.4smartmoney.com/   Instagram: David Lecko https://www.instagram.com/dlecko   Website: DealMachine https://www.dealmachine.com/pod   Instagram: Ryan Haywood https://www.instagram.com/heritage_home_investments   Website: Heritage Home Investments https://www.heritagehomeinvestments.com/

Did you know that you could get a 3% mortgage rate on your next rental property? With rates hovering around 6%-7%, this would shave hundreds of dollars off your monthly mortgage payment and save you a few hundred thousand dollars in total interest. That alone could flip a deal with negative cash flow into a profitable one. But rates don't appear to be coming down any time soon. So, how is this possible? Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Today, we're talking about assumable mortgages—existing loans that have rates as low as 3%. These aren't “goldilocks” properties that only the luckiest investors find. There are millions of them all across the U.S., and we'll show you exactly how to find them. Stay tuned to learn everything you need to know about these loans, like how to cover the “equity gap” that many of these properties have, a six-step process for taking over an existing mortgage, and the biggest pitfalls to avoid along the way. If you're struggling to find properties that cash flow, this investing strategy could be the answer you've been looking for! In This Episode We Cover Everything you need to know about assumable mortgages before you buy The main difference between assumable and subject-to deals The three main types of government-backed, assumable loans Six steps to find, buy, and close on an assumable mortgage The “equity gap” explained, and how to find “sweet spot” properties The best places to find assumable properties for sale online And So Much More!

Should you pay off your mortgage early or buy more rental properties? The first option gives you peace of mind, while the other allows you to build wealth much faster. In this episode, we're fleshing out both strategies so you can make the right choice!   Welcome back to another Rookie Reply! What's better—a debt-free property or a larger real estate portfolio? The answer depends entirely on the investor, but we'll help you determine the best path for you. As a new landlord, it's only a matter of time before you'll need to make repairs to your property. But what if that “repair” is something major, like replacing an HVAC unit? We'll show you how to prepare for the worst before you buy!   Finally, how do you know if you're analyzing a rental property correctly? It might look like a good deal on the surface, but what if you're overlooking some major red flags? Follow our tips, and you might just dodge a mistake you could regret later! Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question here! In This Episode We Cover Paying off your mortgage early versus buying more rental properties Using your home equity to scale your rental portfolio faster How to budget for major rental property repairs and maintenance How much every rookie investor should have in reserves (per property) Common red flags you can't afford to miss when analyzing real estate deals And So Much More!

You're looking online and seeing properties priced at $300K, $400K, $500K, or more. As a real estate investor, that won't cut it. What if you could get a deeper discount—we're talking $150K rental properties. Don't think it's possible? Henry has been getting deals just like this in 2026, buying them, making upgrades, and walking into serious equity with way less money in.  How does he find them? Today, we're sharing the exact methods. This is how to find off-market properties priced well below your area's average, even in 2026, even with methods people have written off as dead. This is the quick guide to getting your first off-market real estate deal. Henry goes over how to spot the “situations” that lead to lower prices, the list he builds to target the best potential investment properties, the methods he uses to contact sellers (it's not just cold-calling), and the tool he recommends every beginner to use to choose their deal-finding method.  Plus, if you don't have time to search for deals, we'll share an easier method to get them sent to you.  In This Episode We Cover How to find investment properties for around $150K even in 2026  The off-market deal-finding methods beginners can use to get their first discounted property  The two things Henry needs on his off-market list before he starts contacting sellers  Got no time to look for deals? This method gets deals sent straight to your inbox  How to use AI to speed up your deal-finding method and get in the game faster  And So Much More!
