In Part 2 of this series, I share 10 specific ways I'm using AI right now in my real estate investing business.

From analyzing markets and underwriting deals to automating follow-up with AI voice agents, these are practical tools and tactics you can start using today... even if you've never touched AI before.

Here's part 1 of this series: • Is AI About to Crash the Real Estate Market?

If you caught Part 1, you know the backstory: a viral Citron Research article predicting AI could crash the economy by 2028.

This episode is the action plan.

I walk through how I use ChatGPT to pick markets, build custom tools without writing code, generate personalized direct mail, automate lead follow-up, and spot motivated sellers before anyone else.

I also show you how to future-proof your income so you're not the one getting replaced.

Real estate investing isn’t complicated.

But it isn’t easy either.

Over the years, I’ve noticed the investors who succeed tend to follow the same basic rules, and the ones who struggle usually break them without even realizing it.

In this episode of REI In Your Car, I go through 10 rules for success in real estate investing. These aren’t theories. These come from real deals, real failures, and real experience.

We talk about why most people quit too early, why consistency matters more than strategy, and why you have to treat this like a business if you want real results.

If you’re serious about building a real estate investing business, these rules will save you a lot of time, frustration, and money.

What I Cover:

0:00 – Real Estate Is Hard (And That’s Normal)
0:12 – Why Most People Never Make Money
0:33 – Rule #1: Be Ready To Work
0:52 – Rule #2: Expect Failure
1:15 – Rule #3: Treat It Like A Business
1:47 – Rule #4: Consistency Wins
2:05 – Rule #5: Follow The Numbers
2:23 – Rule #6: Ignore The Drama
2:36 – Rule #7: Rejection Is Part Of The Game
2:42 – Rule #8: Believe Deals Exist
3:04 – Rule #9: Stop Blaming The Market
3:18 – Rule #10: Keep Going Longer Than Everyone Else

Real estate investing is hard.

And that’s actually the good news.

Because the reason most people fail isn’t the market, competition, the economy, or the tools they’re using.

It’s because they quit.

In this episode of REI In Your Car, I break down the honest truth about real estate investing — why it’s harder than most gurus say, why most people never make money, and why the solution isn’t finding a magic strategy.
It’s doing the work.

We’ll also talk about why data beats drama, why rejection is part of the process, and how the investors who succeed simply outlast everyone else.

If you’ve been feeling discouraged, blaming the market, or wondering why things aren’t working yet… this episode will reset your perspective.

Most people think they need money, marketing, or complicated systems to do their first land deal.
They don’t.

In this episode of REI In Your Car, I break down the fastest, cheapest, most ignored way to get a land deal — using the phone.

No direct mail.
No ads.
No excuses.

If you can have 15 real conversations a day for 10 days, you can lock up a deal. I’ll show you exactly who to call, what to say, and how to turn realtors into a deal pipeline.

This works for land.
It works for houses.
And almost nobody does it — which is why it works.

If you want to win in 2026, you can’t play the same pricing game you played before.

In this REI In Your Car episode, I break down exactly how I’m changing my strategy this year—why I’m pricing more aggressively, moving deals faster, and focusing on velocity instead of squeezing every last dollar out of a deal.

I walk you through my real numbers, my marketing plan, and what I’m seeing right now with motivated sellers, buyer demand, and competition. If you’re wholesaling land or houses and want to survive (and thrive) in a shifting market, this matters.

This is my public accountability for 2026—and I want you to ride along with me.

What you’ll learn:

► Why faster deals beat bigger profits in this market
► How I’m adjusting offers based on today’s prices (not last year’s)
► My exact deal targets and minimum profit goals
► Why aggressive pricing upfront beats price drops later
► How fewer competitors actually helps you right now

I used to say no to things that would have saved me years of frustration — and made me a lot more money.

In this REI episode, I break down five decisions I resisted for way too long… and exactly how saying yes to them changed my business, my income, and my sanity.

If you’re working hard but feel stuck, capped, or constantly busy without real progress, this is for you.

This came from a real conversation I’d normally have behind the scenes — no hype, no theory. Just what actually worked after doing this business the wrong way for years.

Here’s what I cover:

0:00 – The mindset shift that changed everything
1:05 – Hitting a ceiling despite working harder
2:18 – Why I hired a local US-based assistant
3:31 – The marketing fear holding most investors back
4:50 – Buying courses vs doing the real work
6:30 – Why this is actually a marketing business
7:40 – The cost of being stingy
9:25 – Being generous with your team
10:30 – Being generous with yourself
12:55 – The full recap: all five decisions
14:03 – The most important one of all

Most people don’t have a money problem — they have a focus problem.

In this REI In Your Car episode, I’m sharing five things I used to say yes to that were quietly draining my time, killing my momentum, and slowing down my income.

These aren’t tactics.
They’re decisions.

When I finally started saying no to the wrong things, everything changed — more focus, more time, and more money.

This is Part 1 of a two-part series.
In Part 2, I’ll share the five things I used to say no to… but now say yes to.

If you feel busy but not productive, this episode will hit home.
