Episode 13 with Tory Sheffer “It was certainly a lot easier because that first deal that I did, I made more than I would have made in a year selling houses.

If I need to go make 20, 30, 50 grand, or whatever, absolutely need to, could I sell a house? Yeah, sure,...

Episode 12 with Damian Bergamaschi “Mobile home parks are a really special asset class within real estate for this one reason. They're kind of a walled garden.

You get really rewarded for making the properties beautiful.” Join Glenn as he int...

Episode 8 with Derek Vickers “And so, I would tell people to go all in on something that you know is right.
