The David Greene Show

Ryan Weimer is considered one of the best RE investors, and overall good people, in the off market space. In today’s episode he shares what you won’t hear anywhere else. A development project he took on that nearly broke him. Ryan shares how the bank pulled his financing, how a trusted coach bailed on him, and how his builder forgot to build to fire code. During this period he felt massive anxiety and lost tons of money. Ryan shares how this changed him, what he learned about himself, and exactly what adjustments he made in his business to help survive. Ryan covers how he acquires property, why rehab bids come in so high, and how he limits how many flips he buys in specific months. If you’re craving an authentic conversation, you’ll love today’s episode. Please consider sharing with someone you love who may be going through a similar tough circumstance.

Michael Miller jumped into RE in a way very few have. Buying a huge portfolio, knowing almost nothing, with big dreams and small experience. The show covers what was happening in the market at the time, how he acquired these properties off market, which ones worked, and which ones didn’t. Mike shares why he focused on appreciation and value add early in his career, and why he’s switching to cash flow plays today. He graciously shares which asset class he’s moving to, where he’s buying, and more importantly, how the money today is in the operations, not the acquisition-as well as why he’s going big into sober living. If you’ve been frustrated or discouraged with RE as of late, this show will remind you why you fell in love with it in the first place.
