    Work with Jimmy & the Vreeland Capital Team to build a 20-Unit Portfolio that will get you the equivalent of a retirement account 3X faster with a third of the capital. Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot... - - - - - - In this solo episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass Podcast, Jimmy Vreeland tackles one of the biggest investor misconceptions: “If the Fed cuts rates, shouldn’t mortgage rates go down?” Jimmy breaks down why that logic doesn’t hold up—and how the real driver of mortgage rates has more to do with market trust, inflation expectations, and the 10-Year Treasury bond than with the Fed’s headline moves. Pulling from research and insights at the Collective Genius Mastermind and financial strategist Jim LaCamp, Jimmy explains why waiting for the “perfect rate” can cost investors years of appreciation, tax benefits, and compounded growth. 💡 What You’ll Learn - Why a Fed rate cut doesn’t automatically lower 30-year mortgage rates -The 10-Year Treasury yield is the real north star for mortgage pricing - How inflation fears keep mortgage rates high even when the Fed moves down - Why “average” interest rates today are historically normal—not high - How to think like an investor instead of a headline-reader - The true cost of waiting—and why the best investors marry the house, date the rate About Jimmy Vreeland Jimmy graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, spent 5 years as an Army Ranger, and deployed three times twice to Iraq and once to Afghanistan. On his last deployment, he read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki which led him down the path of real estate investing. As his own portfolio grew, eventually he started a real estate investing business. Since 2018 his team at Vreeland Capital has supplied over 100 houses a year to high performing, passive investors who want to work with his team and his team is now managing over 800 houses.

He hunted deals, swung hammers, managed tenants, and even camped out in his properties during renovations. The hands-on hustle taught him a ton—but it also burned him out.

In this episode of The Real Estate Fastpass Podcast, you’ll hear: - Kirk’s early “do-it-all” investing days—and why they weren’t sustainable - How burnout led him to a 5-year plus break from real estate - The mindset shift that allowed him to grow without doing the work himself - How turnkey investing with Vreeland Capital helped him re-scale all the way to 19 doors - Why make-readies and repairs should be seen as investments, not expenses - The four pillars of rental wealth—and how they compound over time If you’ve ever felt the grind of self-managing or wondered how to scale without sacrificing your career, Kirk’s story is proof that you can build a thriving portfolio and keep your sanity.
