Still chasing paperwork, writing every follow-up, and trying to remember a hundred little tasks? You might be doing work AI could already help take off your plate.

In Week 6 of our AI Series, Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner welcome back Neil Gallus of Build With Operators to discuss practical ways business owners and real estate investors can put AI to work.

From estimating rehab costs and organizing contractor updates to building marketing tools and catching forgotten utility cancellations, this conversation gets into the everyday tasks that eat up your time—and how to start getting that time back.

But there’s a catch: “Just automate it” isn’t a strategy. Neil explains why better instructions, the right business information, and clear guardrails need to come before the bots.

Five rental houses. Zero vacancy. Zero tenant turns. Michael Freed shares why his Oxford House rentals have become his favorite properties—and why he’d choose them over another Airbnb.

Our first-ever interview guest returns to The Kash and Dash Show to catch up with hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner on everything that’s changed since episode 2. After leaving a $170,000-a-year electrical career to pursue real estate, Michael went back to a W-2 job. His reason? Rebuild cash, let his portfolio mature, and make decisions that fit his family.

We dig into his experience renting homes to Oxford House sober living households, what makes a property a good fit, and why investors should contact their local outreach worker before buying or renovating. Michael shares how five of these rentals have operated without vacancy or tenant turns during his ownership, while providing a home for people rebuilding their lives.

This is an honest conversation about adjusting your plan, keeping your priorities straight, and building a business that supports the life you actually want.

A big real estate portfolio doesn’t mean you have cash to pay the next big repair bill. And another “great deal” might be the last thing your life needs.

On this Unscripted episode of The Kash and Dash Show, Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner get honest about the gap between building wealth and actually feeling financially secure.

Owen shares why he’s planning to pull nearly $200,000 in equity from seven rental properties—and why deciding whether to sell, refinance, or keep collecting cash flow is anything but simple. Ted brings back takeaways from BiggerPockets’ conference, including conversations about adapting to a tougher market and why someone’s online presence tells you very little about their actual portfolio.

Then the conversation gets personal: the stress business owners carry home, what they share with their spouses, and why having people who understand the pressure matters.

Owen also mentions a potential rehab opportunity for interested investors. Reach out to him through Owen Money Real Estate to ask whether it’s still available.
