episode How To Walk An Investment Property Before You Buy — What Most Investors Miss artwork

How To Walk An Investment Property Before You Buy — What Most Investors Miss

In this episode I walk you through an active renovation project and break down exactly what to look for when you’re scoping an investment property before you make an offer. From exterior to interior — roof, fascia, gutters, mechanicals, layout, bathrooms, insulation — these are the things most investors miss that cost them thousands. If you underestimate your renovation budget you lose money before you even start. This is how I think through it on every property. What do you think a full renovation on a 3 story, 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom house costs?

episode Why You’re Not Seeing Results Yet (The Truth About Success) artwork

Why You’re Not Seeing Results Yet (The Truth About Success)

Why does success take longer than we expect? In this episode, I talk about one of the biggest frustrations people face when building something — the feeling of being behind. Whether you're building a business, investing, improving your health, or chasing financial freedom, progress often feels invisible before it becomes obvious. We break down: • Why comparing yourself to visible results is dangerous • The invisible foundation behind every “overnight” success • Why consistency compounds • Why most people quit before progress shows • Why feeling behind is actually part of growth Success is not instant. It’s built through repetition, discipline, and patience. If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. And leave a review if you’re getting value from these conversations.

episode Is This a Good Deal? My Real Estate Checklist Before I Buy artwork

Is This a Good Deal? My Real Estate Checklist Before I Buy

Before buying any investment property, you need a system. In this episode, I break down exactly how I analyze real estate deals before making an offer. After handling 50+ deals in one year in the Pittsburgh market — including flips, rentals, and construction projects — I’ve learned what separates a profitable deal from an expensive mistake. Too many investors: • Overpay • Underestimate renovation costs • Ignore big-ticket items • Rush into emotional decisions • Skip inspections that cost thousands later In this episode, I walk through: * How I evaluate price and location * What I check before even leaving my house * Understanding ARV and renovation spread * What to look for during a walkthrough * Why time matters just as much as money * Sewer inspections and major deal killers * How I decide if a deal works for me Remember: You don’t need an investment property. You want one. And bad decisions cost thousands. If you’re serious about real estate investing, rentals, flipping houses, or building wealth through property — this episode is for you.

episode The Fear That’s Holding You Back (And How to Beat It) artwork

The Fear That’s Holding You Back (And How to Beat It)

Most people don’t fail because they lack ability. They fail because they’re afraid to make the decision. In this episode, I break down the real reason fear keeps people stuck — the fear of starting, the fear of making the wrong move, the fear of failing. It’s something I’ve faced personally. And it’s something I still face today. We talk about: * Why fear shows up right before growth * Why indecision is more dangerous than failure * How fear disguises itself as “logic” * The mindset shift that helped me move forward * Why success hides behind discomfort Fear doesn’t disappear. You just learn to act anyway. If this resonates with you, message or comment: FEAR Follow/subscribe for real conversations about business, mindset, and growth — no hype.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
