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.

You've experienced life at the highest level: private planes, exclusive circles, red carpet events, and the luxury that money can buy. But beyond the accolades and access, have you ever found yourself asking, 'Is this all there is?' There's a silent struggle that often shadows success. Behind the velvet ropes and curated lifestyles, many high-profile individuals wrestle with an inner void—an ache that no amount of wealth, recognition, or adrenaline can truly silence. When the applause quiets and the entourage leaves, the stillness can feel suffocating. For some, that emptiness is numbed by alcohol or distraction. The result? A slow unraveling. What once felt like a dream life begins to lose its shape, and the future becomes harder to see. But there is another way forward. Sometimes, it takes losing everything you thought mattered to discover what truly does.  That was David Christensen's journey. Once immersed in the Hollywood elite and high-adrenaline adventures, yes, even Titanic exploration, David found himself at a crossroads as the lifestyle he built began to unravel.  In this episode, he shares how reconnecting with purpose led him to an unexpected but deeply fulfilling new path in real estate.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Keep your eyes on the prize Staying connected to your purpose keeps you motivated through challenges. What's the bigger goal that drives you to keep going when things get tough? -Figuring out your “why” Clarity on your “why” is the foundation for lasting fulfillment and purpose.

This year he made global headlines representing the sale of the iconic ‘Breaking Bad' house, featured in The New York Times, Robb Report, and The Wall Street Journal, among others.  Prior to his career in real estate, David managed music artists and projects as an entertainment executive in Los Angeles. He also served as Media Director for a renowned TITANIC expedition, diving 12,800 feet to the wreck site; an experience shared by fewer than 200 people worldwide.  David's life is a powerful story of resilience and reinvention: from Hollywood success to personal collapse, and ultimately to successful entrepreneur and purpose-driven leader. As a speaker, he shares on real estate, transformation, resilience, and turning your "comeback into a calling".

If you've ever felt overwhelmed trying to figure out what a piece of land is really worth, I get it. I used to spend hours digging through listings, comparing sold prices, calculating averages, and second-guessing my numbers. Then I built a tool that lets me comp land in under 60 seconds, and it has completely changed the way I make offers.In this episode, I walk you through my exact process for finding accurate comps quickly, so you can make solid offers without relying too much on pricing algorithms. I share why those tools can be helpful but will only get you about 50 to 75 percent of the way there. You still need to do your own research. We'll go step-by-step using free resources like Zillow, plus my new Chrome extension that scrapes and calculates comps in seconds.We'll cover how to avoid overpaying, make conservative offers that still get accepted, and position your properties to sell faster than the competition. I also show you how to negotiate with sellers, follow up for more deals, and use active and sold comps to make confident decisions. By the end, you'll see how easy it is to turn this into a repeatable process that works anywhere.What's Inside:—Why pricing tools alone are not enough for accurate land comps—Step-by-step method to comp properties using Zillow and my free Chrome extension—How to decide your offer price using active and sold comps—Negotiation tips and follow-up strategies to close more deals

Property management may not be flashy, but it's essential to successful real estate investing. In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Derek Morton, founder and owner-broker of Netgain Property Management in Utah. Since 2016, Derek has built his company around balancing landlords' expectations with tenants' needs. With over 14 years of real estate experience, he shares stories, lessons, and practical strategies that show why effective property management is about more than just collecting rent. Derek explains that many landlords underestimate what it takes to own rental property. Too often, investors assume hiring a property manager means they can step away entirely. Instead, he stresses the importance of staying engaged and managing the manager. He discusses how becoming more selective with clients improved both his business and his quality of life, and why setting expectations early with both tenants and owners prevents conflict later. Technology is central to Derek's approach. From maintenance platforms to financial reporting tools, automation helps his team streamline processes and reduce repetitive tasks. This frees up time for meaningful conversations and allows them to “people better” when human connection really matters. With these systems in place, Derek has scaled his business across Utah while maintaining a strong focus on service. Jonathan and Derek also touch on the realities landlords rarely anticipate—emergency repairs, tenant job loss, and unexpected life events. Derek highlights the importance of financial reserves and has redesigned his onboarding process to include an owner's manual, welcome box, and annual reviews. These steps educate landlords and align expectations from the start, reducing long-term issues. Looking ahead, Derek sees rental payments shifting to match how tenants manage money. Flexible or weekly payment options, along with security deposit alternatives, are becoming more common. He believes these changes reflect economic realities and can ease pressure on tenants while ensuring landlords get paid. Jonathan underscores that property management isn't a set-it-and-forget-it function. Investors who hire managers still need to stay involved, ask questions, and build trust. Derek's philosophy of preparation, transparency, and accountability shows how effective property management strengthens portfolios, reduces stress, and creates long-term net gains. Whether you're new to rentals or scaling a portfolio, this episode highlights the systems and mindset that turn property management into a true asset for long-term success. In this episode, you will hear: Common mistakes landlords make when hiring property managers Why clear expectations with owners and tenants are essential How technology streamlines communication and operations The role of owner onboarding, education, and reviews Derek's take on the future of rental payments and landlord-tenant relationships Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

This segment discusses the Trump administration's plan for a significant increase in deportations, with a goal of deporting up to 500,000 people per month. The hosts then transition to a discussion about a "California exodus," citing several examples of businesses and wealth leaving the state. They highlight the decision by the CEO of Bed Bath & Beyond to not reopen any physical stores in California, a move he attributed to the state's "unfriendly business environment." They also mention In-N-Out Burger's decision to move its corporate headquarters from California to Tennessee. The hosts use data from Zillow and a demographer's analysis to show that seven of the ten most expensive neighborhoods in the U.S. are now in Florida, while only three remain in California, reflecting a major shift of wealth from the West Coast to the Sunshine State. The hosts argue that these trends are a result of California's policies and that even some legal and illegal immigrants are leaving the state. They conclude by asserting that Democrats are now relying on "criminals" to remain in California to boost census numbers and voter rolls.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Mike Zane, a real estate fund administrator at Lexcraft Advisors who specializes in supporting fund managers through the complexities of launching, managing, and scaling investment funds. With a background in accounting and years of experience working inside and alongside real estate funds, Mike offers a clear look at how fund administration works and why it's critical to an investor's long-term success. Mike explains that many investors underestimate the operational and compliance demands of running a fund. From regulatory filings and investor communication to accurate financial reporting, fund administration is more than bookkeeping. It's a system that keeps funds running smoothly and legally. He and Jonathan discuss the differences between starting a fund as a new manager versus transitioning from syndications, the importance of building strong investor relationships through transparency, and the role of a fund administrator in protecting both the manager and the investors. They also cover why newer managers often underestimate the time and resources needed to manage a fund, how to streamline back-office operations without sacrificing accuracy, and the potential pitfalls of trying to handle everything yourself. Mike shares advice for setting up a fund correctly from the start, including knowing when to bring in outside help, the technology tools that make administration more efficient, and how proactive reporting can boost investor confidence. For anyone considering starting a real estate fund or enhancing the one they already manage, this episode breaks down the process into manageable parts. It highlights the support systems that make the difference between chaos and control. In this episode, you will hear: The core responsibilities of a real estate fund administrator The differences between launching a fund and running syndications How proactive communication builds trust with investors Common mistakes new fund managers make in operations and compliance Why streamlined processes are crucial for scaling successfully Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Many real estate agents believe YouTube is a missed opportunity. They moved on it too late, the ship has sailed, and only the early adopters or viral sensations can turn videos into closings.  The agents who are investing in YouTube are approaching it the wrong way. They try to be the whole country's Realtor, chasing broad topics and national views, instead of being hyperlocal.  Far too many believe they need tens of thousands of views to see results, when in reality, a few dozen of the right eyeballs can change the trajectory of their business. Ken Pozek is living proof that all these assumptions are dead wrong. When he moved to Orlando, knowing no one, he didn't buy leads or flood social media with generic content; he doubled down on hyper-local YouTube videos.  Today, that channel drives leads daily, powers a team, and pulls in steady referrals from agents across the country… all without spending a dime on ads. How do you turn YouTube videos into local leads and closings? What makes a YouTube lead so much better than a Zillow lead?  In his return to the show, Ken dismantles the biggest myths holding agents back from YouTube success and reveals the exact strategies that turn a small, targeted audience into a 24/7 lead engine.  Agents screw up when they try to talk about all real estate everywhere, and be the economist of choice for the whole country, instead of being their local Realtor. -Ken Pozek   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The YouTube gold rush isn't over Some people think it's too late to invest in YouTube. Can an agent start now and still carve out a profitable channel? YouTube leads vs. paid internet leads  How does YouTube transform you from a commodity to a sought-after advisor?  The power of staying local The biggest mistake agents make is trying to be everyone's Realtor. How does focusing on hyper-local content generate leads that national-style videos never will? Turning videos into evergreen lead machines Some people think YouTube can only generate buyer leads. What simple structuring trick keeps videos producing sellers and referrals?   Guest Bio Ken Pozek is a Realtor, digital content creator, and founder of The Orlando Real.  The Pozek Group is a specialized group of real estate agents, led by Ken Pozek, in Orlando, Florida.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Kirby Atwell, an Army veteran, real estate investor, and host of the Living Off Rentals podcast. Kirby's journey from military service to financial freedom offers a practical roadmap for investors seeking a sustainable, high-cash-flow strategy. Kirby's interest in real estate began in 2006 while stationed in El Paso, Texas, after reading “Rich Dad Poor Dad.” His first purchase, a turnkey property across the street, sparked a career that would include multiple rental acquisitions before leaving the Army in 2011. Initially, Kirby built a high-volume house-flipping business, completing around 75 projects in five years. While the operation looked successful from the outside, the overhead, contractor management, and constant pressure to “feed the machine” made it an unsustainable treadmill. Recognizing that his initial goal was freedom, not endless hustle, Kirby pivoted. After a short return to corporate work, he began acquiring long-term rentals in Northwest Indiana. A chance experiment, turning a basement apartment into an Airbnb, netted $22,000 in one summer, far exceeding the annual income from some of his long-term units. This discovery led him to transition entirely to short-term rentals, focusing on modestly priced multi-unit properties that could also work as long-term rentals if needed. Kirby now manages 39 short-term rental listings, primarily clustered near Michigan City and Valparaiso, Indiana, with additional properties in southwest Florida. By concentrating on one region before expanding, he built economies of scale in operations, supply management, and cleaning services. His strategy centers on risk-averse investing—buying affordable properties in areas with steady demand drivers, from national parks to local universities—while maintaining the flexibility to pivot between rental strategies. Jonathan and Kirby discuss the power of “reps” in real estate, why clustering investments boosts efficiency, and how to vet short-term rental opportunities by analyzing local competition. Kirby also shares his process for furnishing units cost-effectively, his rule of thumb for net returns (1% of purchase price monthly), and the importance of avoiding over-leverage. Today, through his Living Off Rentals platform, Kirby coaches other investors to build similar portfolios. His philosophy combines conservative acquisition criteria with creative income strategies, allowing investors to create both cash flow and long-term equity without the burnout of high-volume flipping. In this episode, you will hear: The importance of taking action before having everything figured out Why scaling a flipping business often leads to burnout and thin margins How an experimental basement Airbnb reshaped Kirby's investing approach The advantages of clustering short-term rentals in one market Identifying risk-averse properties with strong cash flow potential Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

In this timely episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady is joined by Mr. Tech himself—Tony Self, Broker Associate at Harcourts Hunter Mason Realty—to unpack the seismic shifts happening across real estate portals. With Rocket Mortgage acquiring Redfin, Zillow clashing with Compass, and Homes.com pouring billions into growth, the battle for consumer attention (and agent relevance) has never been louder.Tony brings a unique lens from his corporate background, having previously consulted for CoStar and other major players who once explored replacing real estate agents with technology. He shares why those efforts ultimately failed, how today's platforms are repositioning themselves, and what agents must understand about syndication, lead flow, and platform control to stay competitive.From Redfin's vertically integrated model with Rocket, to Compass's private listing network, to Zillow's war over MLS syndication rights, Ben and Tony break down the implications for everyday agents. They also discuss why Homes.com is attempting to replicate Australia's seller-paid marketing culture, and why it may (or may not) work in the U.S. residential landscape.Whether you're skeptical of portals or fully reliant on them for lead generation, this episode will give you clarity on the current battles, the hidden agendas, and the practical steps agents need to take to stay ahead in a marketplace being reshaped by tech, banks, and billion-dollar acquisitions.Timestamps & Key Topics[00:00:00] – Why Portals Are Dominating the Headlines in Real Estate[00:01:23] – Rocket Mortgage Acquires Redfin: What It Really Means[00:04:20] – Can Banks Finally Break Into Real Estate?[00:06:26] – Zillow vs. Compass: The Syndication Feud Explained[00:10:06] – Homes.com's Billion-Dollar Play & the “Australian Model”[00:13:25] – Why Agents Still Can't Be Replaced by Technology[00:17:42] – The Future of Portals, Brokerages, and Agent Relevance

Confidence can make or break your career as a speaker, professional, or entrepreneur. Today, I sit down with Juan Bendana, one of the most sought-after keynote speakers in the corporate circuit, to discuss how to build unshakeable confidence from the ground up. Juan shares his proven system for developing confidence in any area of life. Juan's journey to becoming a world-class speaker is remarkable. He went from bombing his first speech at a Rotary Club breakfast (literally wanting to run out of the restaurant) to becoming a bestselling author and speaking for companies like American Express, Zillow, and AT&T.

In this candid episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady welcomes back Chris Cochran, Director of Marketing at Harcourts Auctions, to tackle one of the most overused—and misunderstood—words in the real estate industry: marketing. With a formal marketing degree and years of experience, Chris breaks down the Four P's of Marketing (Product, Price, Place, Promotion) and why most agents only focus on one—and often get it wrong.Ben and Chris dissect how agents misuse “marketing” as a catch-all term with clients, the dangerous assumptions that come from hiding behind it, and why understanding the Four P's is essential to positioning any listing in today's market. From the myth that “more exposure” solves everything, to the truth about MLS syndication, this episode will reframe how you present and execute your marketing strategy.You'll hear real examples of properties that had the right price but the wrong product, the illusion of “different” listing portals, and how small tweaks in promotion can drastically change results. Whether you're a seasoned agent or brand new to the business, this conversation will arm you with the clarity—and the language—you need to talk marketing with sellers in a way that builds trust and sets realistic expectations.Timestamps & Key Topics:[00:00:00] – Why “Marketing” Is the Most Misused Word in Real Estate[00:02:44] – The Four P's: Product, Price, Place, Promotion[00:06:07] – Product Control: How Much Can Agents Really Influence?[00:10:05] – The MLS, Zillow, and the Myth of “Other Places”[00:13:25] – Price vs. Perceived Value: Why They're Not the Same Thing[00:17:57] – The Fifth Variable Agents Forget: The Market Itself[00:21:24] – How to Use the Four P's in a Listing Presentation

Turning into your parents might be your worst fear, or your biggest marketing opportunity.That's the brilliance of Progressive's Dr. Rick campaign. It's hilarious, deeply relatable, and sneakily strategic. In this episode, we explore the marketing lessons behind it with special guest Keri McGhee, Chief Marketing Officer at Attentive.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from character-driven storytelling, embracing creative risk, and using humor and relatability to create campaigns that people actually want to talk about.About our guest, Keri McGheeKeri McGhee is the CMO at Attentive, the AI marketing platform for leading brands. She leads strategic global marketing to further build the Attentive brand, overseeing product marketing, revenue marketing, events, partner marketing, communications and content, and brand creative. Keri's past experiences include leading marketing at various start-ups and as a senior director at Zillow, where she led the B2B marketing team of 60+ people, responsible for strengthening partner loyalty and experience for 60,000+ real estate partners. She got her start in tech at Expedia, leading both consumer and corporate travel marketing teams.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Progressive's Dr. Rick Campaign:Take creative risks. Keri's central message is clear: great brand moments come from taking chances. “We take ourselves way too seriously in B2B.  So I think my advice is to step outside of the comfort zone of what the CFO, and the COO, and the CEO say yes to. And do the work to get the customer validation to pitch in some new idea..” B2B marketers often play it safe, focusing on product features, ROI charts, or thought leadership. But real differentiation happens when you create something unexpected, emotional, or funny. The Dr. Rick campaign could've flopped. Instead, it became a cultural reference point.Make your audience feel seen. The best ads are mirrors, not megaphones. Progressive tapped into a deep, relatable insecurity, “Am I becoming my parents?” Keri shares, “It's incredibly memorable, which I think is the most important thing in marketing right now.” For B2B, this could mean identifying moments of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or job-related stress and playfully reflecting those back to the buyer.Build a fictional persona. A single viral hit is fleeting. A character-driven series builds long-term brand equity. Dr. Rick works because he's a consistent, evolving character. He became a franchise. Most B2B brands invest in one-off videos or campaigns. But serialization keeps audiences coming back, like a show you binge-watch. Keri states, “  I can't think of any B2B that actually has been able to do that…Most of the true B2B play companies are not investing in brand in that way.”Quotes“What we find with B2B buyers is they make decisions as people, not as the companies for which they're spending money for. We undervalue that a lot in B2B marketing…And the reality is, the things that are impossible to measure are where we are starting to place bigger bets because it's the only way to drive differentiation.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Keri McGhee, Chief Marketing Officer at Katalon[01:06] Why Dr. Rick?[02:45] The Psychology of Being Seen[04:02] Who Is Dr. Rick?[11:26] Branding in a Commoditized Industry[13:59] Flow vs. Dr. Rick: A Franchise Strategy[15:26] Why B2B Doesn't Do This[22:14] Parents vs. Homeowners[26:35] Keri's Top B2B Takeaway[28:30] Creating Content Around Insecurity[31:20] Why Brands Don't Take Risks[40:56] Final Thoughts & TakeawaysLinksConnect with Keri on LinkedInLearn more about AttentiveAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Three simple questions plague every American seeking healthcare: Where should I go? When can I be seen? And how much will it cost me?

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Scott Trench, former CEO of BiggerPockets, co-host of the BiggerPockets Money podcast, and author of “Set for Life.” Their conversation dives into how Scott achieved financial independence through real estate and frugality, and how new investors can build the confidence and skills to invest from a position of strength. Scott shares how his own path began with house hacking and strict expense management while working as a financial analyst. These early habits laid the foundation for his first duplex purchase and ultimately his real estate success. He explains that the core pursuit behind investing for most people isn't financial wealth. It's time freedom. Real estate offers one of the most accessible paths to achieve that, especially for everyday Americans with median incomes. The conversation highlights the importance of personal accountability and developing an in-person community. While online education has its place, Scott emphasizes the lasting value of learning from real people, joining masterminds, and taking action on knowledge, not just theory. He also explains how engaging directly with tenants, even when difficult, builds the playbook necessary for long-term success. Jonathan and Scott discuss why now might actually be an excellent time to buy, especially in smaller multifamily sectors. While high interest rates have sidelined many investors, price adjustments in certain markets have created new windows of opportunity. Scott reflects on his experience with both direct ownership and passive investing in syndications, candidly sharing why he prefers the control and reliability of local real estate over national trends. They also touch on the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement and what early retirement actually means. For Scott, financial freedom isn't about never working again. It's about creating more choices. He encourages listeners to ignore the noise, avoid overpriced guru programs, and focus instead on sustainable investing strategies that fit their lives. Throughout the episode, Scott keeps the advice actionable. He urges new investors to think critically, avoid fads, and build a strong foundation through frugality, education, and reps in the field. Whether you're house hacking, looking at syndications, or considering commercial opportunities, the key is to approach each decision with discipline and awareness. The ultimate goal? Gaining control over your time, finances, and future. In this episode, you will hear: The mindset shift that turned Scott Trench from employee to investor Why house hacking creates a low-risk way to build skills and equity Where many new investors get stuck and how to get unstuck The importance of being a transparent and human landlord Strategies Scott uses to handle difficult tenants without evictions The hidden value of investor forums and local meetups Why it's smart to stay skeptical of real estate fads The case for small multifamily in today's market Scott's view on FIRE and time freedom as the real end goal Ways to assess college vs. trade school from an ROI perspective Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Home insurance premiums are rising much faster than homeowner incomes—and climate risk is driving the spike. In today's episode, we dig into new Zillow data showing premiums have jumped 38% nationally since 2019, compared to just a 22% rise in homeowner income. The fastest increases are hitting places like Miami, Sacramento, and Jacksonville, where wind and wildfire risks are high.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Daniel Angel-Mejia, managing partner at Apex Investments, for a conversation about sustainable real estate growth, building solid operations, and finding your way into development the smart way. Daniel brings international experience and a background in finance to his work in residential real estate, combining strategic planning with on-the-ground execution to drive long-term returns. Daniel's investing career began in Colombia, working with institutional clients before moving to the U.S. and landing in Atlanta. Initially focused on single-family fix-and-flips, he gradually shifted toward building portfolios, multifamily acquisitions, and now, ground-up residential development. He explains how this progression unfolded, the importance of starting where you are, and why consistency beats shortcuts when trying to scale. One of the key themes of this episode is building vertically integrated operations for long-term efficiency. Daniel shares why his team is transitioning property management in-house, even before hitting massive scale, and how that decision aligns with their larger strategy. He also breaks down how he and his partner approach market selection, development planning, and build-to-rent (BTR) versus for-sale projects. Jonathan and Daniel discuss how communication with tenants and communities plays a role in stabilizing properties, particularly when repositioning mom-and-pop multifamily assets. Daniel explains how they've created win-win situations by being transparent, planning thoughtfully, and offering quality upgrades that residents appreciate. Whether you're early in your investing journey or ready to shift into development and management, Daniel's experience offers a clear-eyed look at what it takes to build durable, profitable systems that adapt to changing market conditions. In this episode, you will hear: How Daniel Angel-Mejia shifted from international investing to U.S. residential development What his early single-family flips taught him about scaling responsibly Why his team is moving toward full vertical integration with property management Ways tenant communication affects long-term occupancy and turnover How Apex Investments is growing its build-to-rent portfolio in the Atlanta market Lessons learned from working with both institutional and mom-and-pop sellers Operational changes that make small-scale developments more efficient The importance of staying specialized while remaining open to future opportunities Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Send us a textThe real estate industry stands at a crossroads where technology and traditional practices collide. Matt Miller, founder of Fairtrade Real Estate, joins us to reveal how his company has carved a unique niche as a local iBuyer with actual boots on the ground – a critical distinction that has allowed them to succeed where tech giants like Zillow have stumbled.Matt explains Fairtrade's powerful three-sided marketplace connecting agents, distressed property sellers, and real estate investors. Unlike algorithm-driven platforms, Fairtrade agents physically inspect properties, understand neighborhood dynamics, and comprehend local economic factors to make accurate offers that benefit everyone involved. This human-centered approach proves especially valuable as market conditions continue to flatten across the country.As we explore the broader economic impact of distressed property investments, Matt highlights how these transactions create numerous jobs – from contractors to landscapers – while transforming previously uninhabitable homes into opportunities for families. For agents seeking to thrive in challenging markets, the message is clear: develop expertise in "higher-hanging fruit" by mastering specialized transaction types rather than competing for diminishing easy deals. Those who expand their problem-solving toolkits will find themselves equipped to provide value regardless of market conditions.Whether you're an agent looking to better serve distressed property sellers, an investor seeking reliable inventory sources, or simply interested in understanding how local expertise continues to matter in an increasingly digital world, this conversation offers valuable insights into the future of real estate. Ready to elevate your approach to challenging properties? Listen now and discover why real estate remains fundamentally "a people business that's very personal and very local."

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Gian Pazzia, chairman and chief strategy officer of KBKG and a pioneer in the cost segregation field. With more than 25 years of experience, Gian has worked on everything from casinos to single-family rentals. He breaks down how real estate investors can legally and strategically use tax incentives, especially cost segregation and bonus depreciation, to significantly reduce taxable income and increase buying power. Gian explains how cost segregation allows real estate investors to accelerate depreciation, what types of assets qualify, and why even single-family rentals can benefit from the strategy. He also highlights the importance of working with credentialed cost segregation professionals, not just general CPAs, to avoid errors and IRS scrutiny. The conversation moves beyond cost segregation into estate planning, bonus depreciation, short-term rental strategies, and how real estate professional status can shift an investor's entire tax position. Gian shares how he and his wife use these strategies in their own 40-unit portfolio, where she handles active management to qualify for real estate professional tax benefits. From legacy wealth to smarter tax planning, Gian outlines the tax tools that real estate investors often overlook, whether due to skepticism, lack of awareness, or misinformation. His deep expertise makes this a must-listen for anyone serious about optimizing real estate returns through better tax strategy. In this episode, you will hear: Ways cost segregation accelerates depreciation to maximize early returns How paper losses can offset income while keeping cash flow intact Benefits tied to the return of 100% bonus depreciation in 2025 The strategic tax edge of owning and managing short-term rentals Property types that yield the strongest cost segregation outcomes The link between estate planning and the timing of depreciation What to consider when selecting a qualified cost seg partner How real estate professional status transforms tax exposure Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with experienced investor and author Joel Miller, who has spent nearly five decades building wealth through rental properties. Joel walks through his early days as a mobile DJ, his accidental path into real estate, and how he grew a portfolio of rentals, flipped over 100 houses, and became a trusted hard money lender in his community. Joel shares his unique perspective on incorporating real estate into an existing career without sacrificing a passion or day job. He emphasizes that real estate doesn't have to be all or nothing. It can be a powerful supplement to whatever you're already doing. He also breaks down the value of education, long-term thinking, and community involvement through local investor associations. The episode dives into Joel's practical framework for sustainable investing, highlighting the critical role of tenant selection, relationship-driven lending, and maintaining high property standards. As an educator and leader in his regional landlord association, Joel also explains how building trust with fellow investors and tenants creates long-term results. His book, “Build Real Estate Wealth: Enjoy the Journey of Rental Property Investment,” is a comprehensive guide that combines mindset, math, strategy, and best practices for anyone interested in rentals, whether part-time, full-time, or somewhere in between. From managing expectations to preparing personal financial statements and structuring deals, Joel's approach is rooted in decades of firsthand experience. Whether you're just getting started or trying to avoid the mistakes new landlords often make, Joel offers clarity, candor, and the tools to build a long-lasting business through real estate.
