Richie started simple: just a lot in North Carolina to build a single family rental on. It didn't turn into a world-beating deal, but it did start his journey. Since then Richie has scaled his real estate portfolio into something that includes single family, multifamily, and commercial properties. All while spending very little time actively managing them. Listen in as Adam and Richie discuss his journey, what's allowed him to be so successful, and how he's preparing his kids for their journey as well.

Construction slowed down considerably at the start of the pandemic, and builders were wary about ramping up their operations as supply chain bottlenecks continued and commodity prices skyrocketed. But now we're seeing growing confidence among builders. Plus, rents are on the rise! With so many people being kept out of the home ownership role due to inventory crunches, landlords are reaping the rewards. Zach Lemaster and Adam Schroeder break down what this means for the investor and how it should impact your strategy.

Throughout the pandemic we've heard that Florida is the place to be. People all across the country, especially those in the Northeast, flocked there and have caused rents and prices to quickly rise. After all that's happened, is there still upside to be found in the market? Believe it or not, that answer is a resounding yes. IF, and that's a big if, you buy right.

If you've looked into real estate investing, you've heard of Section 8 housing. Many people have slightly negative feelings toward the program/residents. But that attitude is what leaves the door open for investors to make returns that are, essentially, guaranteed. Adam Schroeder talks with Jack, an expert on Section 8 rentals in Ohio, about what exactly the program is, how it works for residents and landlords, what type of investment properties do (and don't) work, and the comfort of knowing that rent check is going to hit your bank account even if there's a pandemic.

The pandemic accelerated a trend that was happening before of people moving to more accomodating states and cities. But even though things are opening up more and economies are on the rebound, people haven't stopped their plans to move.

Adam Schroeder and Zach Lemaster look at where people are going, if the trend is likely to continue, and why Florida is both a place people have been flooding into AND a place where investment properties still make sense.
