Real Estate Investing Mastery Podcast

I’m still hanging out at the airport in Spain as I’m recording this episode. This is sort of an appendage from the previous episode — it was something I was going to say but then forgot. But it’s important, so I’m adding it here. It has to do with being distracted by other opportunities… Those […]

Alex and I are happy to welcome a longtime, real estate investor friend, Rob Swanson, to this podcast episode. Our interview with Rob focuses on the state of FreedomSoft, a software program that Rob purchased last year. If you’ve heard of FreedomSoft, or if you happened to be a user in the past, here’s a […]

Instead of “In the Car,” this is an “In the Airport” episode. I’m in the airport getting ready to come home from the Spain conference with Tom Wade, and I’m ruminating on all that’s happened. Interacting with other investors from other countries gave me so much to think about – in a good way. I […]

Being with a group of investors – as I am on this trip in Spain – always reminds me how important relationships are in this business. I learn as I teach and share. I learn from other investors’ ideas. And at the same time, they learn from me. That’s the subject of this episode – […]

Hey there, Joe here – still in Spain as I record this episode. (And missing my family.) Today, I want you to think about a couple questions… In what areas are you struggling right now? What’s slowing you down? That’s where I’m going in this episode. Years ago, I had a mentor who had two […]

This episode is coming to you from Spain! I’m conducting a 3-day workshop with my friend, Tom Wade. Tom has sunk his teeth into the virtual wholesaling concept and is actively doing deals from Europe. (In the UK they call it “flipping remotely.”) I give a great tip in this episode of how you can […]

In Part 1 of the interview that Alex and I conducted with Cody Hofhine, we learned some of the strategies that he was using in his investing business in Salt Lake City. We learned that Cody’s mantra is that this is a “people business.” “It’s crucial to focus on the people first,” Cody says, “and […]

I love when you use my podcast hotline to leave your questions. I have a question here from Laurel from New Jersey, who wants to know when she should hire an acquisitions manager. So, I’m using this episode to give Laurel several tips on not only when, but also why she might seriously look at […]

A while back, Victoria (my wife) and I invested the time to write out our “life design.” We wanted to create our own lifestyle. It included, among other things, the ability to travel as a family and see the world. Sometimes that meant going to other countries; sometimes it meant staying in the States and […]

What are your dreams and goals when it comes to being a real estate investor? How are you coming along on those goals? Are you moving toward becoming that successful investor, or are you still a wannabe? Well, you’re going to love this Real Estate Investors Creed that was written by my friend, Brian Gibbons. […]

I know we’ve been over this subject before in past episodes, but it seems to come up again and again… and that is making doubly-sure that you are careful about intent and disclosures. While it is legal to broker without a license, and it is legal to flip contracts without a license, still and yet […]

How about it? Does a 7-figure wholesaling business sound good to you? Or does it sound like a hyped-up, empty promise? Can it really be done? Well, in this episode, Alex and I grill Cody Hofhine to find out exactly what this new kid on the block is doing right in Salt Lake City, UT. […]

Realtors and the MLS can be a goldmine for deals that many investors may be overlooking. You can be the investor who’s different. As investors, we often think that there is conflict between us and Realtors, but it doesn’t have to be that way (and shouldn’t). As you’ll hear, I’m presented an interesting and different […]

If done correctly, outsourcing tasks is an incredible time-saver and can really boost your business growth. I started outsourcing almost right out of the gate when I began as an investor. However, I’m hearing a lot of investors complaining that they’re trying to use a virtual assistant (VA) and it just isn’t working. The root […]

Technology with all its programs and systems is supposed to simplify our lives, right? Good in theory, but sometimes totally lost in actual practice. I’ve been talking to some of my students and sensed that they’re getting bogged down in the very system that’s supposed to be freeing up their time. I’m referring to Podio […]
