Success Measured in Lives Changed, Not Deals Closed | Augie Byllott (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Augie Byllott has completed more than 600 real estate transactions using traditional bank financing only twice, built five businesses, and authored four books, but this conversation with Jason Seward centers on something else entirely: what he calls real estate's role as a "wheelchair," a vehicle that carries you toward a deeper purpose rather than an end in itself. Augie traces that idea back to a chance conversation with a colleague at Chase Manhattan Bank in 1982, and forward through a corpor
The Hidden Costs of Self-Managing Your Properties Nobody Calculates | Stephen Glover (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Stephen Glover didn't grow up dreaming about property management, he fell into the industry in 2018 through a business partnership and had to learn the entire field from scratch.

In this conversation with Jason Seward, Isabelle breaks down exactly how the model works: a large single f
The Co-Lending Model Behind a $50 Million Portfolio | Jason Balin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jason Balin has been in the private lending business for nearly two decades, co-founding Hard Money Bankers with his business partner Chris Haddon back in 2007, when there was almost no organized competition in the space. In this conversation with Jason Seward, he steps back from loan mechanics to talk about private lending as an actual business, the kind of decisions that separate a sustainable operation from one that quietly implodes years down the road. Jason walks through the origin story: h
