| 5/4/26 | JF 4232: Real Estate Debt Investing and Exploiting Inefficiencies in the Debt Markets ft. Fred Moskowitz | Richard interviews Fred Moskowitz, who breaks down how investing in real estate debt shifts you from making payments to receiving them.

The conversation highlights why note investing is a scalable, steady alternative to equity, with returns driven by yield, collateral position, and disciplined risk management. They also dig into how pricing inefficiencies, borrower behavior, and liquidity needs create opportunity in the secondary loan market.

| 5/1/26 | JF 4231: Economic trends, Market conditions, and Investment Opportunities in 2026 ft. John Chang | Matt Faircloth interviews John Chang, who breaks down April’s market volatility and what it means for commercial real estate investors. He explains how geopolitical uncertainty has already been priced into the market, with inflation pressures lingering but interest rates stabilizing rather than spiking further. John emphasizes that despite short-term noise, the broader real estate cycle is setting up a strong window for long-term investors. He also highlights where opportunity is emerging, pointing to office as a sleeper asset, continued value-add potential in retail, and softer outlooks for self-storage. The episode wraps with key markets to watch, including long-term growth cities, turnaround regions, and a few under-the-radar plays driven by economic and policy shifts.

| 4/29/26 | JF 4230: Ground Leases, Deal Discipline and CRE Longevity ft.

He explains why retail is far from dead, how supply constraints drive long-term value, and why he’s remained focused on a tight geographic niche instead of chasing scale. John also dives into ground lease strategies, the dangers of overleveraging, and why metrics like IRR can be misleading compared to focusing on what you actually earn. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes disciplined growth, sticking to your “weight class,” and building a sustainable real estate career that prioritizes longevity over hype.

| 4/22/26 | JF4227: RV Park Underwriting, Multiple Revenue Streams and Deal Analysis ft. Heather Blankenship | Amanda Cruise interviews Heather Blankenship, who shares how she built a diversified portfolio across RV parks, mobile home parks, and multifamily over 15 years, starting as an owner-operator before scaling with a team. She explains why RV parks offer strong cash flow but require heavy operations, leading her to add more stable assets to balance her portfolio. Heather breaks down how RV parks have remained stable post-COVID due to drive-to demand and supply constraints, while also explaining the complexity of underwriting assets with multiple revenue streams and higher operational costs. She highlights the importance of aligning your investment strategy with your goals, whether that’s cash flow, tax benefits, or long-term stability. She also walks through a hybrid RV and mobile home park acquisition, where she increased occupancy through workforce housing demand and repositioned the asset for stronger performance. Her key takeaway is that one RV park can still be life-changing, but only if the asset type matches your desired level of involvement and long-term vision.

Nicolas Lares | Matt Faircloth has a conversation with Nicolas Lares as he shares his journey from tech at Amazon to transforming insurance through captive-style structures that align your interests directly with your coverage.

| 3/27/26 | JF 4215: Transforming Lives Through Real Estate ft. Kevin “KAYR” Robinson | Matt Faircloth interviews Kevin “KAYR” Robinson as they break down actionable tactics like analyzing zip codes with a focus on local amenities and community trends, building relationships on the ground, and employing strategic financing options like the Homestead Loan methods that allow him to grow his portfolio without expensive bridge loans or hard money. You'll also learn why he avoids traditional LLC strategies in favor of a simple, practical approach perfect for most investors who are just starting out or owning a handful of properties. Why does this matter? Because most investors are playing a high-stakes game with little understanding of market fluctuations or risk, often chasing short-term home runs at the expense of consistent, long-term wealth.

His philosophy emphasizes that real estate is a tool to lift people and neighborhoods today, not decades from now.
