In this week’s REIA Radio Rundown, Ted and Owen get real about one of the most brutal realities in real estate: contractors who don’t finish what they start. From broken promises and busted timelines to blue tape nightmares and punch list purgatory, they lay out the chaos that happens when the last 10% of a project becomes a never-ending saga.

They unpack what really grinds their gears—like watching a deal stall because someone flaked on a faucet or vanished before painting the last coat. Owen shares personal horror stories (including four vacant rentals and a contractor time warp), while Ted drops a golden nugget about why saving money is often better than making more. They even float a business idea: a final-10%-only contracting company. (No joke, there’s money in that.)

If you’ve ever lived the flip life, managed a turn, or just want to hear two investors let loose on the grind behind the growth, this episode hits home.

🎧 Listen in and laugh (or cry) with us, and don’t miss the teaser for Wednesday’s episode featuring San Diego’s own Nikki Klugh—interior designer turned investor with over 40 units under her belt and big insight into staging, subconscious buyer behavior, and making homes irresistible in 7 seconds.
