Stop Being a Crybaby: Are You Working the Deal or Waiting for a Miracle?The year is 2026, and the real estate market isn't what it was last year, let alone five years ago. If you find yourself struggling to close deals or complaining about a lack of funding, it’s time for a serious reality check. In this episode, Scott Carson dives deep into the "mental side" of the business, stripping away the excuses that keep investors paralyzed. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a new realtor looking for distressed opportunities, the message is clear: Your success is directly tied to your marketing volume.Scott takes us back to his darkest days in 2009—living in a $400-a-month room, eating canned beans, and facing foreclosure himself. He didn’t wait for a bailout or a "funding Jesus" to descend from the clouds. He hustled, expanded his market, and turned a desperate situation into a $35,000 wholesale win. If you’re tired of being "sick and tired," this is the wake-up call you need to get off the sidelines and back into the game.Key Takeaways for the 2026 Market HustleExpand Your Horizons: Stop looking for deals in one tiny backyard. If your local area is dry, use the internet to market across multiple states where the inventory is actually moving.Fire Your "Old" Money Partners: If your previous investors refuse to fund distressed assets, sub-two deals, or non-performing notes, they aren't your partners anymore. You must go out and create new funding sources through aggressive networking.The 80% Rule of Sales: Most success happens after the fifth contact. Sending one email blast and giving up isn't marketing; it's laziness. You have to "carpet bomb" your message across Facebook, LinkedIn, and email databases.Leverage Case Studies: Even if you’ve only done a few deals, use them as proof of concept. Share your wins and your "near-foreclosures" as case studies to attract new investors.Show Up Where the Money Is: Stop avoiding the "scary" places. Go to local foreclosure auctions and REIA club meetings. The people bidding there have the cash you need; you are just one connection away from your next deal.Stop the Political Blame Game: Your bank account doesn't care who is in the White House. If you spend more time complaining about politics than you do skip-tracing leads, you are the reason you aren't succeeding.Dumbify the Deal: When presenting to new partners who don’t understand the note business, break it down on a whiteboard. Show the numbers, the BPO, and the potential yield in simple terms.Conclusion: No Free LunchesAt the end of the day, you are where you are because of the decisions you've made. There is no "free lunch" in real estate. You have to be willing to make sacrifices—maybe that means stepping back from coaching soccer for a season so you can spend those two hours marketing your business.Remember Scott's $35K win: he didn't have the money to buy the note, but he had the "hustle jacket" on. He got the contract, marketed it everywhere, and closed the gap. Stop feeding yourself the "bullshit" that you aren't smart enough or good enough. Get beyond your comfort zone, take massive action, and remember: Chimichangas are for winners.Ready to get to work?
