  • Investor Who Timed Market (3 Times!) Says Now May Be Bottom
    Jun 27 2025
    The housing market is already predicted to see price cuts by the end of the year, but is now the time to buy, or should you wait for further price movement? We brought on an investor who has successfully timed the housing market (three times) to give his thoughts on whether we’re at the bottom or we have a long way to go. If you’ve been holding out for lower home prices and less competition, should you take the risk and wait, knowing a rebound could be on the way? Through a combination of genius and a bit of luck, Brian Burke has sold, bought, and sold at the right times repeatedly. He exited the majority of his real estate portfolio in the early 2020s as prices hit all-time highs and competition was fierce. For the last three and a half years, he hadn’t bought anything, up until very recently. Is this a signal that now is the time to buy? Today, we’re asking Brian whether 2025 is the right time to buy (and for which assets), how to get in “position” to make a profit as home prices decline, the sellers most likely to give you concessions and further price cuts, and signs YOU should sell your headache rental and trade it for something better. The second half of 2025 could be when the scales tip—are you ready to make a move? In This Episode We Cover Buying near the bottom and how to capitalize on the steepest price cuts What Brian looks for in a rental property during a down market How to get even deeper discounts (and seller concessions) in 2025 Signs that you should sell your rental and redeploy the profits How much debt to take on during volatile times in the housing market And So Much More!

  • Change Your Financial Future with ONE Real Estate Deal
    Jun 25 2025
    All it takes is one (yes, ONE!) real estate deal to change your life and jumpstart your path to financial freedom. You could stop after just one, but more often than not, that first deal opens the door to even bigger opportunities, allowing you to build wealth, create more passive income streams, and finally reach financial independence. Every successful real estate investor has had that one deal that set off a domino effect, enabling them to build wealth. We’re sharing ours today so you can repeat them! Joining Dave are Garrett Brown and Matt Faircloth, two investors from different backgrounds, strategies, and parts of the country. But both had real estate deals that propelled them forward toward financial freedom. Dave also had a killer real estate deal (only his second deal ever!) that significantly increased his standard of living. We’ll share how Garrett made $50,000 (tax-free!) on a repeatable first real estate deal anyone in any area can try. Matt shares how he was able to scale up his portfolio fast when he realized he didn’t need to provide the money for his down payments and renovations. Finally, Dave shares the second deal he ever did that upgraded his life permanently and why he does not “sacrifice” to achieve financial freedom faster. In This Episode We Cover The real estate deals that defined our investing careers (and how they propelled us to financial freedom) The easiest real estate investment for beginners (make $50K+ tax-free!) Using other people’s money to invest in real estate? Why you don’t need to have the down payment How to live for free and speed up your timeline to financial independence like Dave Why you should tell everyone you know that you invest in real estate And So Much More!

  • Semi-Retired with a Small $6,000/Month Rental Portfolio
    Jun 23 2025
    This investor used his primary residence to build a $6,000/month rental property portfolio—helping him semi-retire, cut his workload in half, and generate a sizable income stream outside his job. And he did it with affordable, small multifamily rental properties that he still buys in today’s market, all while working a demanding schedule that required his attention 24/7, 40 weeks per year. Bill Price has worked as a sound engineer for some of the music industry’s biggest names. He’s toured with Justin Bieber, Weezer, and Third Eye Blind (among many more), working intensive hours on global tours. But, in the background, when he was off the road, Bill was building an intentional real estate portfolio to replace his income. Today, less than a decade after buying his first true rental, he’s working just 16 weeks per year instead of 40. Bill made some mistakes and some BIG bets that paid off. We’re talking terrible tenants, eviction notices, bird cages, dog droppings, and flooded basements. But, through it all, Bill says it was well worth it, as 90% of his rental property investing career has been buying deals and collecting checks. If Bill can manage a rental portfolio while touring in Japan and setting up an impromptu skate park for Justin Bieber, why can’t you? In This Episode We Cover How to cut your workload in HALF with a small, cash-flowing rental property portfolio Turning your primary residence into multiple rental properties so you can scale faster A big eviction mistake that cost Bill months of time with a bad tenant Doing a BRRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat)? Why you should run your numbers as a flip, too Why you should tell EVERYONE within your circle that you buy rental properties! And So Much More!
