Are you sick of tenants, toilets, trash, and trauma? š½š« What if I told you thereās a way to become the bank, attract pre-vetted buyers with fat down payments, and sell your properties at a 10-20% premiumāwithout the usual selling costs?
In this essential episode, I sit down with my friend and real estate cycle veteran, Lou Brown, to dig into the strategies that have allowed him to survive and thrive through six different real estate cycles. Lou shares his "Buy, Hold, Sell" philosophy and the ingenious model of becoming a Certified Affordable Housing Provider.
Lou reveals how he's created a marketing machine to find non-bank-qualified buyers and why long-term financing (even 40-year mortgages) is actually a massive benefit for investors due to inflation.
š The People Business: Discover why having an inventory of people ready to buy is far more valuable than an inventory of houses. Lou explains his Path to Home Ownership membership that pre-qualifies customers for you.
š Finding Off-Market Buyers: Learn the top marketing avenuesābeyond the MLSāto poach buyers from apartment complexes, leverage employers, and even get matching funds for down payment assistance. (Hint: Facebook Marketplace is just the start!)
š¦ Becoming the Bank: Understand the structure of Rent-to-Own and Owner-Financing models, including using work-for-equity credits and credit restoration to ensure your customers eventually succeed in their path to homeownership.
𤯠Cycles Are Planned: Lou explains why recognizing the real estate cycle trends is key to surviving and why inflation is your ultimate advantage when you own assets.

In this powerhouse episode, I sit down with my friend and mentor, the legendary Robert G. Allen (author of Nothing Down and Multiple Streams of Income), to discuss the single most powerful asset an entrepreneur can build: A Bestselling Book.
Robert reveals the secret behind his $25 million coaching launch and why every real estate investor listening is holding back their business by not having a published book. This conversation isn't about writing a novelāit's about creating a strategic marketing tool designed to find both deals and capital.
Why Every Real Estate Investor Needs a Book:
Solve Your Biggest Problem: Robert warns, "You'll run out of money before you run out of good deals." A book is the ultimate mechanism to raise money by giving you the instant credibility needed to partner with passive investors.
The Credibility Multiplier: A published book automatically acts as a "Trojan Horse," multiplying your revenue by ten-times over five years by positioning you as the undeniable market expert.
Avoid the 3 Stupid Mistakes: Learn why writing a full autobiography, trying to "change the world," or using a clichƩ title will doom your book and waste all your advertising spend.
Focus on the Reader: Discover the "WIIFM" (What's In It For Me) principle and why the weakest word on the first page of your book is "I." Your content must be 100% focused on solving the readerās problem.
Robert believes anyone can become a bestselling author by dedicating just 30 minutes a day for 90 days. Get the full blueprint!

The Crash, the Comeback, and the Mindset Shift: How to Re-Engineer Your Real Estate Potential š
Can a catastrophic setback actually be your biggest advantage in real estate and entrepreneurship?
Ricardo Rosales dives deep with TJ Kozen, a long-time friend and fellow investor, who shares an incredible story of losing money in the 2008 crash, moving to Dallas, and enduring a catastrophic accident where doctors said he might not walk again. This isn't just about survivalāit's about the mindset that turns a crisis into a ceiling-raising opportunity. If you're wondering "How do I push past my perceived limits in property investment?" or "What is the single most important focus for entrepreneurial growth?", this episode has your answers. š§
Mindset is NOT Gospel: Learn why listening to the "experts" is only the first step. TJ reveals the powerful truth about setting your own path and not letting outside voicesāeven doctors or market analystsādefine your potential. Your ceiling should become your floor. š”
The Power of Incremental Focus: Instead of overwhelming yourself with $10 Million goals, find the "relatively simple" first step (e.g., $0 to $100k) and compress the timeline through laser-like focus. This is the key to achieving the seemingly impossible. šÆ
The Healing Energy of Effort: TJ shares the physical and mental intensity required to literally learn to walk again, showing how a fierce, singular dedication to one goal can create a transformational heat (and even "healing energy"). Apply this unwavering work ethic to your business. š„

In this episode, we reveal: Florida vs. Texas: The Tax Trap: Why the 1% Rule in multifamily doesn't apply equally in Tampa vs. San Antonio, and how local property taxes (and coastal insurance) can wipe out your NOI.

Life & Business from the Ring: The boxing analogy that defines August's approach to adversity and why accepting that you are responsible for your current position is the first step to scaling out of a crisis. Are you an accidental landlord or a scaling operator?
