Episode 9: How a 22 Year Old Investor Built a $100M Real Estate Career with Bryiana Davis

Real Estate of the Union: Special Guest: Jason Madiedo

America is approaching a historic turning point. Within the next two decades, the majority of Americans will be people of color. At the same time, the dream that built the middle class — homeownership — is becoming harder for families to reach.  In this powerful conversation, Nation of Homeowners founder Nick J. Gouché sits down with Jason Madiedo, co-founder and CEO of Panorama Mortgage Group, to discuss what the future of homeownership looks like in a rapidly changing America. They explore the forces shaping the housing market, the policies that could restore affordability, and the role business leaders must play in helping families build stability and wealth through owning a home. The discussion moves beyond politics and focuses on solutions — from simplifying the mortgage process to finding ways the free market can help expand access to ownership.  Because for millions of families, a home is more than an address. It represents financial independence, opportunity, and the feeling of walking through a door that belongs to you.  And the question this episode asks is simple but urgent: What happens to America if that opportunity disappears?

Episode 10: The Power of a Mother’s Vision: From the Living Room to Legacy with Jamial Clark

Did you know the fastest way to lose generational wealth is when a family receives an inheritance and sells the asset for cash?  In this episode of the NOH USA Podcast, we sit down with Jamial Clark, an entrepreneur, restaurateur, author, and the developer of The Clark on 54th, a $24 million mixed-use project with 48 units built to change the landscape of Los Angeles. The story starts with his mother’s vision on 54th and Crenshaw, and a family decision to treat ownership like legacy, not a payout.   A bold, honest, and grounded conversation about: * • Why inherited assets often get sold, and what that destroys over time  * • How his mother built legacy from a living-room business into a real commercial footprint on 54th & Crenshaw  * • How a partnership made the first ownership move possible  * • What the project is and why it matters to LA (The Clark on 54th, $24M, 48 units)  * • Why “capital” becomes the barrier once the vision is clear  * • What happens when banks say no, and how he found a path through community relationships and bridge financing  If you care about keeping assets in the family, turning inheritance into ownership, and building something your community can stand on, this episode is for you.  -------------------  JOIN OUR MOVEMENT: https://www.nationofhomeowners.com/ APPLY FOR A HOME LOAN: https://bit.ly/NOHApply SCHEDULE HOMEBUYING CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHBuyers SCHEDULE REFINANCE CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHReFi GROW WITH US: https://bit.ly/NOHConnect PRE-ORDER OUR BEST-SELLING BOOK NATION OF HOMEOWNERS https://bit.ly/NOHBook SUPPORT THE GOUCHE FOUNDATION: https://bit.ly/GoucheFoundation TEXT US: Text (424) 479-9980 to to get the latest updates in real-time!  -------------------  ABOUT US (NOH USA PODCAST) Nick J.

Episode 8: From an Attic to the Top of the Mortgage World, One Obsessive Step at a Time with Fernando Espino

Did you know one of the clearest perspectives on homeownership comes from someone who has lived instability, served in the military, and worked his way up from the inside of the mortgage business? In this episode of the NOH USA Podcast, Fernando Ospina, President of Alterra Home Loans, shares openly about his early years, including military service and a season of living in an attic, and how those experiences shaped the way he works, leads, and thinks about responsibility. His perspective is grounded in having lived both struggle and scale. He also explains how obsession played a role early in his career, what it takes to succeed at a high level, and how staying close to the work through the Great Recession and beyond shaped what he notices about homeownership today. He speaks from what he has seen repeatedly over time, and how to learn from it. A grounded NOH conversation about: • Fernando’s background and path into leadership • How military service shaped discipline and responsibility • What early struggle taught him about work and commitment • Why obsession shows up in building something meaningful • What he observed during and after the housing crash • How long-term behavior matters after the purchase ------------------- JOIN OUR MOVEMENT: https://www.nationofhomeowners.com/ [https://www.nationofhomeowners.com/] APPLY FOR A HOME LOAN: https://bit.ly/NOHApply [https://bit.ly/NOHApply] SCHEDULE HOMEBUYING CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHBuyers [https://bit.ly/NOHBuyers] SCHEDULE REFINANCE CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHReFi [https://bit.ly/NOHReFi] GROW WITH US: https://bit.ly/NOHConnect [https://bit.ly/NOHConnect] PRE-ORDER OUR BEST-SELLING BOOK NATION OF HOMEOWNERS https://bit.ly/NOHBook [https://bit.ly/NOHBook] SUPPORT THE GOUCHE FOUNDATION: https://bit.ly/GoucheFoundation [https://bit.ly/GoucheFoundation] TEXT US: Text (424) 479-9980 to to get the latest updates in real-time! ------------------- ABOUT US (NOH USA PODCAST) Nick J.

Episode 7: The Access Gap and the Early Fix That Changes Outcomes with Ryan Sims & Marc Henderson

Did you know the wealth gap is driven less by income and more by who gets access to the right information early enough to act on it? In this episode of the NOH USA Podcast, features Marc Henderson and Ryan Sims from Thirvent Financial and introduces the Future Homeowner Fund concept and explains how small, disciplined investments made early in a child’s life can compound into real ownership opportunities later on. It highlights the role of financial literacy, trusted partnerships, and community-based leadership in breaking cycles that have persisted for generations. The message is clear. The gap is not caused by lack of ability or ambition, but by lack of exposure and access, and that can be changed with intention and structure. A grounded and forward-looking conversation about: * Why capital and access remain the biggest barriers to wealth building * How starting early changes long-term outcomes for families * The role of churches, nonprofits, and partnerships in closing the gap * Why financial education must meet people where they are * How small, consistent actions compound into future ownership * What it takes to move from awareness to real generational impact ------------------- JOIN OUR MOVEMENT: https://www.nationofhomeowners.com/ [https://www.nationofhomeowners.com/] APPLY FOR A HOME LOAN: https://bit.ly/NOHApply [https://bit.ly/NOHApply] SCHEDULE HOMEBUYING CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHBuyers [https://bit.ly/NOHBuyers] SCHEDULE REFINANCE CONSULTATION: https://bit.ly/NOHReFi [https://bit.ly/NOHReFi] GROW WITH US: https://bit.ly/NOHConnect [https://bit.ly/NOHConnect] PRE-ORDER OUR BEST-SELLING BOOK NATION OF HOMEOWNERS https://bit.ly/NOHBook [https://bit.ly/NOHBook] SUPPORT THE GOUCHE FOUNDATION: https://bit.ly/GoucheFoundation [https://bit.ly/GoucheFoundation] TEXT US: Text (424) 479-9980 to to get the latest updates in real-time! ------------------- ABOUT US (NOH USA PODCAST) Nick J.
