From Oil & Gas to 300+ Real Estate Deals ft Aaron Bihl EP 21

In this episode of Real Talk with REsimpli, Don Carlson and Chenay Jordan sit down with real estate investor and No Name REI Podcast host Aaron Bihl for a raw, funny, and practical conversation about what real estate investing actually looks like behind the scenes. Aaron shares how he went from working in oil and gas to building a successful off-market real estate investing business, what he learned from a major business partnership breakup, and why he’s now focused heavily on mobile homes, land-home packages, and direct-to-seller marketing. They also get into the reality of coaching and masterminds, why so many real estate “gurus” miss the mark, what newer investors misunderstand about creative finance, and why not every deal should be forced just because the structure sounds clever. Plus, Aaron shares some unforgettable stories from the field — including gross houses, surprise trailers, flea infestations, and one very questionable suitcase. In this episode, we cover: - Aaron’s transition from oil and gas into real estate investing - How masterminds and coaching helped accelerate his growth - Lessons from rebuilding after a business partnership split - Why doing more deals doesn’t always mean making more money - The truth about real estate gurus and coaching programs - Lead generation strategies that still work today - Why Aaron is focused on mobile homes and land-home packages - The risks newer investors overlook with creative finance - Gross house stories from 300+ real estate deals REsimpli is an intuitive, all-in-one real estate software built for real estate investors that require little to no customization, so you can have your CRM up and running in minutes.
