Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast

In this episode, I’m driving home from hanging out with a group of investors at a late dinner. They had gathered in St. Louis to attend an event hosted by Shaun McCloskey. I wanted to use this episode to announce that Shaun and I will be doing another coaching training at the end of July. […]

Sometimes a child can impart sound wisdom… I’m on my way to take my daughter out to eat in this episode, and I wanted to share with you her insights regarding the rules of business. This episode may be short, but it’s profound. Listen and Enjoy: What’s inside: 9-year-old Lydia shares her thoughts about the rules […]

I trust you’ve been following this series of how I got started in real estate investing and have listened to the 4 previous episodes. They all lead up to this final episode. I started this series because I was thinking about all those who helped me along the way. I can’t name them all, but […]

We’re at Part 4 in my backstory of how I got started in this business of real estate investing, and this is—believe me—the lowest, darkest time. It’s stressful to even remember it now. If you haven’t done so already, please go back and listen to the first 3 episodes so this one will make sense. […]

Alex and I have the privilege, in this episode, of learning about Phil Pustejovsky’s story and about his current successful business. Phil is one of the leading mentors in the industry today, but it was a long road to success. He had a college education, but he quit a good job to go into real […]

Here we are in Part 3 of me telling the backstory of how I got started in real estate investing. This episode is probably the most telling, the most embarrassing and the most painful. I really thought I was doing well. Everything looked good on paper. I owned about 14 homes at this time, but […]

I started this series of episodes as I was driving to the dentist. When I got there, the dentist wasn’t there and my appointment had been cancelled. Yeah, I was a little upset. But, upset at me. Because I looked on my phone and there was the call where I had been notified a few […]

I’m on my way to the dentist as I record this In Your Car episode. I didn’t really want to go, but I have to set a good example for my kids. But I’m not talking about the dentist – at least not totally. I’ve been doing a little reminiscing about the early days when […]

In this episode, we have Christina Krause back with us, and Alex and I fire off a bevy of questions to learn more about probates. Christina’s been in this business since 1999, and she’s done about every type of deal there is, but now she works only with probates. If you’re not clear on what […]

Your business is located in the Midwest, yet you live in beautiful San Diego, California. Can that be possible? How can your business operate with you so far away? That’s exactly how Tony Javier operates his real estate investing business. His company, Professional Home Buyers, is located in Wichita, Kansas, where Tony was born and […]

The day has finally arrived. I’m driving to the arena for the graduation ceremonies; I’m finally graduating with my MBA. Those of you who follow my podcast know that I started this program many years ago, and had only one class to finish. Well, I finished that class and now am graduating! But that’s not […]

You’ll notice I’m a bit out of sorts in this episode, as I have a very annoying case of poison ivy. Nasty stuff. Went to urgent care and got a shot. Ouch! Headed to fill a prescription as I’m recording. But on to other things… I’ve heard this Patton quote before, but just had someone […]

When I first started out in the real estate investing business, I listened to podcasts by Rick Otton from Australia. Now, years later, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with Rick, and hopefully very soon I’ll be interviewing him for one of my Real Estate Mastery Podcast episodes. It will be fascinating because Rick is […]

I was digging around in some of my old stuff the other day and came upon a set of notes that I had made while taking a real estate investing course. (One of many, I hasten to add.) We had group coaching calls during the course just like I do for my students now. These […]

You can tell I’m pretty pumped in this episode. It’s because I’m launching a brand-new one-on-one coaching plan. It will help you hit the ground running and take shortcuts to get your business off the ground. I’ve been remembering back to when I first started out. I paid a coach to let me come to […]
