What if you could build a successful real estate career without ever cold calling, and instead, rely on your instincts, network, and out-of-the-box thinking?

In this episode of the Investor Agent Synergy Podcast, hosts Jeremy and Shelly Beland sit down with Eddie Ahearn, a Massachusetts-based investor and top-producing agent at Lamacchia Realty. Eddie’s journey from spinning tracks as a DJ to building a portfolio of long-term rentals, short-term Airbnbs, and flips is anything but traditional—but that’s exactly what makes it so inspiring.

Eddie got his start in real estate back in 1999, purchasing a multi-family property that launched him into the world of investing. After years of success in rentals and flips, he finally got licensed as an agent in 2019, quickly becoming a regional leader—all without traditional prospecting methods. Instead, Eddie leverages street smarts, strategic lending, and powerful networking to grow his business and help both buyers and sellers win.

This episode is packed with creative solutions, market-savvy advice, and fresh ideas for agents looking to expand into investing, or investors wanting to work smarter with agents who truly get it.
