I’m talking to you today after going through my Facebook feed. There’s a lot on Facebook about the direction of the real estate market. Some investors are saying we’re headed for disaster. Others think it will be a mild dip, not a crash. Mortgage rates have hit a 7-year high, but they’re still very low. Prices […]

I’m sharing something exciting with you today. I spoke at an investing event in the Raleigh area over the weekend… taught the attendees about lease options. One guy in the audience started texting landlords from Craigslist while I was talking, and got 2 appointments for the next day. That’s an inspiration to me, and I […]

I want to tell you about some cool things that have been happening. Today and yesterday we had another Implementation Workshop in St. Louis.

Hi everybody. We just ended another 2-day Implementation Workshop with a few clients. During the workshop, everything these new investors need to get started is set up for them.

Hi everybody. I’ve been thinking lately about the phrase, “people in hell want ice water.” It applies to a lot of sellers we come across. In general, sellers think their house is worth more than it is. Or, they have liens on the property and want the selling price to get them out of trouble […]

I’m driving home from spending the day with a coaching client. We had a really good time working on setting up systems and exchanging marketing ideas.

Hey, what’s going on? I’m enjoying a beautiful sunset right now as I’m driving to pick up my son at his tumbling class. We’re talking again about Win Win Win Deals. These are ideal because the seller, the buyer and you (the investor) all feel like they’ve won when the deal is complete. Aim for […]

So, I’ve got a short episode today. I’m driving home from a couple of real estate classes that are required to keep my real estate license active. I’m sharing an acronym with you that may help when you encounter objections… CRIAC. It stands for Cushion, Restate, Isolate, Answer and Close. I’ll explain what each of […]

So, I’m excited about this… I’m recording this episode in a rented Suburban. My family’s going to Florida in a couple of weeks, and I wanted to rent instead of taking one of our cars. Anyway, I have a cool marketing tip that came from one of my coaching calls. A student named Dustin shared […]

She lives in Birmingham, Alabama, and has been our boots on the ground in small markets in Alabama and Mississippi, where we’ve been having great success lately. My partner Gavin and I have been working on perfecting the auto-dialer cold […]

So, I’m keeping this ep short and sweet… Recently, I’ve been getting a ton of work done. How? By making my to-do list shorter. A to-do list doesn’t need to catalog every bit of minutia that pops into your head. Just list the important task(s) you want to complete. I changed my to-do list to […]

651_Transcript So, I’m driving to The Original Pancake House to have breakfast with one of my coaching clients. You’ve probably heard me talk about how some of my clients come to St. Louis and spend time with me. That’s what’s happening today. I’ve been thinking about this and want to share it with you… If […]

I’m here today with Jackie Jackson who has a TV show that airs in Orlando and Miami. She started by interviewing established and new entrepreneurs in different fields. Lately, it’s morphed into being more about real estate. Her show can also be seen online. She’s still doing real estate investing, and her advice is that […]

So, I’m driving around St. Louis, and I want to tell you what we’re doing… In the past 4 months, we’ve made 21 deals and grossed about $100,000. Some deals made only $300. You’ve had those, right? Sometimes we see this coming, but generally don’t renegotiate. My business partner, Gavin, is involved. He started in […]

So, I want to talk to you today about handling overwhelm. It’s easy to get overwhelmed. There’s just so much information. We can access podcasts and YouTube videos and courses on real estate investing, and many of them are quite good. You buy a new course and tell yourself you’ll follow it through to the […]

So, my guest today is Patrick Precourt, who runs what is probably the best real estate Mastermind in the country: Collective Genius. He’s now gotten into working with people on personal development.

I have a special guest today: Larry Goins. I’m excited about having Larry here—I’ve been learning from him since I started in this business. And I’m still learning from him through our Mastermind group. Larry got started in real estate more than 30 years ago. He actually started based on an infomercial by a guy […]

So, I’ve got to ask you to do something for me today… I want you to pause this episode and go to iTunes and review my shows. Even if it’s a negative review, I need the input. I used to get a lot of reviews, but I’ve gotten nothing in several months. What’s going on? […]

So, I’m working with students who’ve come to St. Louis for the day. I really enjoy spending time with students who are getting started in this business. But, let me tell you… it makes me think about my own start. Wow, I made so many mistakes. But did making mistakes stop me from becoming a […]

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again… if you don’t know your numbers, you may not have a business. I am returning home from a Mastermind, so the numbers thing is fresh in my mind. I’m not saying I’ve always been good at knowing my own numbers; it’s something we need to master […]

Today’s question: Is it not working or are you not working? And the ‘it’ we’re talking about is coaching. Is what you’re learning not working or are you not implementing what you’re learning? I know because I’ve done it. When I first started, I paid $13,000 for a coaching series. Then I didn’t make any […]

This is the second of 2 connected episodes… the first was 5 things I used to say yes to, but now say no. This ep will cover 5 things I used to say no to, but now say yes to. Let me get right to it—it’s important to use a CRM to manage your leads.

Today’s episode is possibly the shortest ever. Even has a short title. What I have to share with you is cool AND important. I am reading a couple of paragraphs to you from my new book about wholesaling lease options. My main point today is that you have to make a decision… are you really […]

Some of the Don’ts are about being different from your competition and answering your dang phone. Direct mail does work. […]

This is the first of 2 connected episodes… The first is about 5 things I used to say ‘yes’ to, but now say ‘no’ to. The second will cover 5 things I used to say ‘no’ to, but now say ‘yes’ to. They’re sort of mirror image episodes. You’ve heard me say to concentrate on […]

So in this episode, I’m driving to meet a coaching client for breakfast. We’ll spend most of the rest of the day in my office. And, fair warning: today’s episode may sound like a rant, but I tried to stay calm… See, we have got to stop complaining. All of us do it, including me, […]
