In this episode of Property & Paper Live, Dawn Rickabaugh discusses why many landlords feel trapped in their rental properties—not because of the real estate itself, but because of the tax consequences of selling. She explains how seller financing and installment sales can help property owners defer taxes, create retirement income, and often achieve better financial outcomes than a traditional cash sale. Dawn also shares new educational and marketing resources designed to help investors and landlords understand these strategies and communicate them more effectively. The discussion continues with audience questions covering opportunities in upstate New York, zombie foreclosures, tax liens, manufactured homes in 55+ communities, and practical considerations for structuring creative financing deals.

Dawn Rickabaugh welcomes Tim Street of Foolproof FSBO for a wide-ranging conversation about real estate, entrepreneurship, financial uncertainty, and personal freedom. Tim shares exciting news about purchasing a luxury property in Panama to expand his Airbnb portfolio internationally. They discuss current housing market trends, economic instability, seller financing, and the growing desire for people to take control of their finances and lifestyles outside traditional systems. The discussion also explores spirituality, self-sufficiency, media influence, and the future of real estate as more people embrace creative financing and for-sale-by-owner strategies.

In this episode, Dawn Rickabaugh interviews veteran real estate investor Jay Davis about his decades of experience using seller financing to acquire and reposition investment properties. Jay shares how creative financing helped him buy commercial buildings with little to no money down, and explains a recent deal where he acquired three duplexes through seller financing by building trust with the seller and honoring her family legacy. The conversation highlights how owner financing can create win-win solutions for buyers, sellers, and agents alike—especially in today's challenging market. Dawn and Jay also discuss relationship-based investing, revitalizing properties, tax advantages, and how seller financing can preserve long-term income for retiring landlords.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo coaches Dan Wentzel moments before a live call with a self-storage owner who may be open to selling a 53,000-square-foot facility through seller financing. But instead of obsessing over the numbers or trying to "close the deal," Alex shifts the focus toward something far more important: understanding the seller.   As they prepare for the conversation, Alex reinforces a foundational principle that separates average investors from great ones: focus on the seller, not the storage facility. By uncovering the owner's real motivations, goals, and timeline, Dan can structure a deal around what actually matters to them—not just what looks good on paper.   The episode also dives deep into creative financing strategy, including how to think about down payments, amortization, no-payment periods, private lenders vs equity partners, and long-term cash flow. Through real-time underwriting and deal analysis, Alex walks through how this opportunity could potentially generate six figures in annual cash flow while requiring little or no money out of pocket.   But the real breakthrough in this conversation isn't the deal structure—it's how Dan shows up. Following the previous episode's mindset reset, Alex challenges him to communicate with confidence, ask better questions, and stop approaching seller conversations from a place of need.   This episode is a masterclass in seller psychology, creative deal structuring, and the mindset required to lead conversations with confidence and clarity.   ⸻   You'll Learn How To:   Focus on seller motivation instead of getting distracted by the deal Ask better questions that uncover what sellers actually want Structure seller financing deals with stronger terms and flexibility Evaluate long-term cash flow opportunities through simple underwriting Think through equity partners vs private lender structures Show up to seller conversations with confidence and authority   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [0:55] Why seller conversations matter more than spreadsheets [2:33] The background of the 53,000 sq ft seller-financed opportunity [4:12] Spotting opportunity in unsophisticated storage markets [5:32] The power of three years of consistent follow-up [6:26] Why understanding seller timeline is critical [8:10] Framing questions around what the seller actually wants [9:49] Why seller financing creates major opportunity [11:20] What 100% occupancy usually signals about upside potential [12:58] Breaking down the facility revenue and asking price [14:16] Evaluating seller financing terms: down payment, interest, and amortization [16:08] Structuring no-payment periods to maximize cash flow [17:49] Calculating NOI and projected cash flow step by step [19:58] Using private lenders vs equity partners to fund deals [22:14] Why this is more of a cash flow play than an equity play [24:05] Breaking down projected cash flow over the first three years [25:58] Understanding long-term upside and exit strategy [27:05] "50% of the watermelon is better than 100% of the grape" [27:27] Preparing mentally and physically before seller conversations [27:52] Why confidence and focus matter more than perfect notes   ⸻   Who This Episode Is For:   Investors preparing for real seller conversations Listeners trying to structure creative financing deals Anyone learning how to evaluate cash flow opportunities Entrepreneurs struggling with confidence in negotiations People interested in seller financing and low-money-down acquisitions ⸻   Why You Should Listen:   Most investors spend too much time analyzing deals and not enough time understanding sellers.   This episode shows how the best opportunities come from uncovering what the seller actually wants—and then structuring a deal around it. From creative financing to confidence in communication, this conversation breaks down both the tactical and psychological side of getting deals done.   If you've ever wondered how experienced investors approach seller calls, structure financing creatively, and think through cash flow opportunities in real time, this episode gives you a front-row seat.   ⸻   Follow Alex Pardo here:   Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

Seller financing has historically been the default way to buy real estate long before modern banks existed - and remains a powerful, underutilized strategy in today's market. This lighthearted and value-packed episode focuses on how tired landlords can use installment sales (seller financing) to potentially double their income, eliminate management headaches, and create steady retirement cash flow while deferring taxes. What makes this kind of situation a success is understanding a seller's needs, building rapport, and structuring win-win deals (such as converting rental income into a “real estate annuity”) while also considering the secondary market for notes to ensure long-term flexibility and value.

On the AZREIA Show in Arizona, hosts Marcus Maloney and Michael Del Prete sit down with investor Greg Slaughter to unpack his journey from building a large rental portfolio and completing over 1,500 real estate transactions across multiple states to ultimately redefining what success means on his own terms. Greg shares how 19 years at McDonald's gave him a strong foundation in systems, processes, and operational discipline, which he later applied to property management and high-volume flipping. Instead of continuing to scale indefinitely, he eventually made a strategic shift away from operational overload and toward designing a life centered on freedom. He explains how he sold his portfolio to a hedge fund using creative seller financing, including a 30-year term, 8 percent interest, and a prepayment penalty, allowing him to maintain consistent cash flow while removing the stress of travel, tenants, and day-to-day management. Greg also introduces his book The Entrepreneur Success Formula: How the Top 10% Escape the Achievement Trap and Build a Life They Actually Want, where he breaks down concepts like ROF (Return on Freedom), the "you first life," and a five part framework for building a business that supports the life you actually want, emphasizing intentional design, spouse alignment, and starting the freedom conversation early. 00:56 Greg Real Estate Origin Story 02:04 Hedge Fund Offer and Seller Financing 03:33 Living on Cashflow and Freedom 05:50 Systems Mindset from McDonalds 06:44 Book on Freedom Over Success 08:31 Two Races Freedom vs Success 09:58 Scaling Myth and Freedom First 11:40 Cashflow Freedom Mindset 12:27 Return On Freedom Test 14:12 Five Keys Formula 15:10 Book And Diagnostic Tool 18:08 You First Life Principle 20:42 Achievements Versus Success 21:19 Travel Stories And Food 22:56 Spouse Alignment Matters -- Contact Alden of Silver Crest Opportunity Fund at http://silvercrestopportunityfund.com "AZREIA does not endorse specific investments.

Last week, we heard why teachers are leaving the system. This week, meet one who did — and what she built instead.Jen Delle Fave spent 8 years as a public school English teacher in upstate New York before walking away to raise her kids, homeschool, and build a real estate portfolio — without ever going to a bank. Now living in Florida with her husband and two kids (11 and 13), Jen runs multiple businesses, travels constantly, and fits homeschooling right into the middle of all of it.Cheryl and Jen get into the real stuff: the mom guilt, the chaotic seasons, the creative finance deals, and why letting your 13-year-old message sellers counts as school.This one's for the homeschool moms who are also building something — and the ones wondering if they even can.In this episode:How COVID pushed Jen from virtual school to full homeschoolWhat homeschooling looks like in Florida vs. New York (spoiler: way less paperwork)How Jen buys real estate without bank loans — and what that actually meansUnit studies, Teaching Textbooks, and letting learning stay fluidWhy your kids calling restaurants and understanding credit matters more than memorizing formulasHow to work, invest, and homeschool without burning out"Hustle should be a season, not a lifestyle."Find Jen: Instagram: @jenDelleFave Website: CreativeFinancePlaybook.com

STOP! If you think you need a massive bank account or a perfect credit score to scale your real estate portfolio, you've been lied to. In this explosive episode of Get Diversified, Jacqueline Landry sits down with Alex Kononov, a real estate titan who went from a W2 job to a 30-unit empire in just 24 months.  But it wasn't easy. Alex reveals the raw, "in-the-trenches" truth about how he closed a 7-unit commercial deal while being completely tapped out of cash and having his credit cards maxed out from previous renovations. What You'll Learn in This Episode:The "Shadow" Strategy: How Alex bypassed skeptical brokers to pitch Seller Financing directly to the owner—securing a deal with only 10% down at a 5% interest rate. The Hoarder House Blueprint: The exact steps Alex took to turn a "smelliest house on the block" into an infinite return cash cow using the BRRRR method. Renovating Through Hell: How to manage a gut-reno during COVID while losing contractors, losing deposits, and paying $30/day just in New Jersey road tolls. The Future of Deal Making: Why traditional underwriting is "slow and fragmented" and how Alex is using AI-native tech to analyze deals 10x faster. The banks said "No." The brokers said "No." Alex found a way to say "YES." If you're tired of "waiting for the right time" or "saving up more money," this is your wake-up call. The difference between a struggling landlord and a real estate mogul isn't capital—it's leverage and persistence. #RealEstateInvesting #SellerFinancing #BRRRR #FinancialFreedom #PassiveIncome #RealEstateHacks #CommercialRealEstate #EntrepreneurGrowth #GetDiversified #PropertyInvesting #AIInRealEstate #MultifamilyInvesting #WealthBuilding #RealEstateInvestor #NoMoneyDown

In this episode, Dawn shares her passion for owner financing and note investing as a way to create financial freedom outside traditional banks and Wall Street. She emphasizes that a private secondary market for mortgage notes allows sellers to offer financing and still access liquidity, creating a parallel real estate system that keeps more money within communities. One of the case discussions highlights how investors can structure deals without banks, benefiting buyers, sellers, and investors through flexible, win-win arrangements. One investor (Ken) shares his strategy of selling properties via owner financing to reduce management responsibilities while generating steady income, even offering favorable terms to help buyers succeed. The conversation reinforces that many real estate deals can be done creatively without traditional lending, and that fairness, flexibility, and real-life circumstances often drive why people choose owner financing.Listen to the rest of the episode over at CitizensOfTheRealm.com

Homeownership is one of the most powerful ways to build wealth, yet many people still feel locked out. In this episode, we bring the conversation back to the fundamentals and break down what it really takes to get into your first property.We unpack the biggest misconceptions—like needing 20% down—and explore how down payment assistance programs are helping buyers get in with far less. We also dive into why income matters more than credit, and how entrepreneurs can strategically position themselves to qualify without sacrificing long-term tax benefits.From house hacking with multi-family properties to creative financing options like seller financing and subject-to-deals, we walk through practical pathways that make ownership more accessible than most people think.At the core, this conversation is about mindset. We don't need the perfect house or perfect timing—we just need to start. Because the real goal isn't the dream home today, it's building the foundation for long-term wealth.We Talk About:[00:00] Why Is Homeownership the Foundation of Wealth[02:57] Tactic 1: Down Payment Assistance[04:05] Tactic 2: Housing Counseling Resources[10:15] Tactic 3: Strategic Tax Planning[12:27] Tactic 4: Flexible Tax Return Programs[20:27] Tactic 5: House Hacking with Multi-Family[32:24] Tactic 6: Seller Financing[33:45] Tactic 7: Creative Financing OptionsResources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyThe Color of Real Estate by Julia LashayBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

This podcast episode focuses on how real estate agents and buyers can use owner (seller) financing as a powerful alternative to traditional bank loans, especially in a slower market where deals are falling through. Dawn emphasizes that agents can close more transactions (and avoid price reductions!) by introducing seller financing as an option, particularly for higher-end listings and buyers with strong profiles--for example, self-employed individuals with 20% down who can refinance later. She explains that sellers can benefit by receiving their full asking price, earning ongoing income, and potentially reducing tax burdens, while buyers gain access to properties they might not qualify for through banks. Overall, the discussion highlights seller financing as an underutilized strategy that creates win-win solutions, unlocks deals, and opens new income opportunities for both agents and investors.

Marti Jo Watts shares a raw, emotional turning point: before COVID she was a high-earning medical consultant managing large territories in Indiana and Kentucky, until her company terminated hundreds of consultants during the vaccine-era mandate period. As a single mom already carrying years of stress around her son's long medical journey (18 head surgeries from infancy to adulthood), losing her job collapsed her finances and stability—house gone, car gone, cramped apartment life, and the humbling moment of her kids helping pay bills. A defining scene hits when she nearly takes the vaccine out of fear of losing everything, but a traffic accident makes her miss the appointment; her son's quiet disappointment (“I thought you would fight harder”) becomes the catalyst that anchors her back to her principles and faith. At her lowest, Marty stumbles into a coaching program on YouTube and realizes real estate isn't reserved for the wealthy—then invests her last resources to join the community and learn creative finance. Momentum follows: a first deal flipping 40 acres with an easement issue (moving fast before competitors), then a “relationship deal” where her best friend asks her to sell a medical clinic in exchange for a Hawaii trip—leading to a partnership purchase and plans to open a medical spa instead of flipping. The conversation turns practical: Marty emphasizes telling people what you do, solving the seller's “pain,” keeping deals win-win, and using creative terms (seller financing / payment structures) to benefit sellers—especially with tax and “mailbox money” advantages. She closes with a motivational call: regardless of where you're starting, have conversations, don't fear big numbers, and build your path deal by deal.

How do you buy a commercial property when the original business plan falls apart — and still turn it into a winning deal? In this episode of the Get Creative Podcast, host Kyle Karges sits down with real estate entrepreneur Manish Pushye and capital raiser Ingryd Hernandez to unpack a creative commercial real estate deal in Avondale, Arizona involving a shopping center, a failed liquor store plan, seller financing, private lending, and a 1031 exchange investor. Manish shares how he went from signing a lease on a retail space to negotiating ownership of the parcel after city restrictions blocked his original business model. From there, he creatively structured the acquisition using a mix of private money, seller finance, and tenant-in-common financing.

March 11, 2026 In this week's NARPM podcast episode, host Pete Neubig talks with acquisition strategist Stacey Salyer about how to grow a property management business through strategic acquisition, not the "door-by-door grind." Salyer, founder of Salyer's Built to Acquire™, dispels common myths, shares strategic ways to acquire a business without millions of dollars, and explains why "boomer sellers" often prefer seller financing due to the tax benefits, creating a "win-win" for both parties.

In this episode of Property & Paper Live, Dawn Rickabaugh discusses current shifts in the real estate market and why seller financing and private note investing are becoming increasingly important as traditional lending tightens. The conversation covers real-world scenarios from investors, including a burned property tied to a reverse mortgage and how lenders may claim insurance proceeds. Dawn also shares insights on reverse mortgage timelines, distressed assets, and opportunities that arise when institutional lenders offload problems. As market uncertainty grows, she explains why investors who understand both property and paper (especially the secondary market for notes) are uniquely positioned to create solutions and profitable deals outside the traditional banking system.

*Previously aired episode* Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel talk with Casey Mericle about his innovative approach to commercial real estate investing through creative financing. Mericle shares his strategy of acquiring properties at higher prices in exchange for favorable seller financing terms, which he then leverages by moving the mortgages to other value-add properties. He explains how he structures deals to solve multiple parties' problems simultaneously, particularly in helping 1031 exchange investors find temporary parking spots for their capital. The conversation provides detailed insights into using options, navigating seller financing, and creating win-win scenarios in today's high-interest-rate environment.
