Not every investment has to be shiny, fix-and-flips or wholesales because the true generational wealth creator is residential rentals.
The title of this episode comes from an impactful presentation I saw a years ago from Terry Paranych. Terry is a one of North America's top Realtors© located in Edmonton. On top of being a top producing Real Estate team, Terry is a powerhouse Real Estate investor.

We talk about what the real estate landscape was like then and now, the importance of putting yourself out there, and how you can play the infinite game. We also weigh in on personal development, my 4M framework for raising capital, and my 3 pillars of real estate.
Here are some of the key takeaways:
Gain some sales skills especially if you want to get into real estate
The pros and cons of having a lot of information at our fingertips
Find a strategy that you like and focus on that one
How to raise capital when you’re just starting out
Mistakes are better teachers than wins
Find out what’s missing in the marketplace and then provide that
Alignment is key but you need to take action first
And so much more...

If you’re just starting out in real estate, ask yourself this...
Are you investing for the long term?
Or are you just building a portfolio for your ego?
Once you’ve envisioned what you want to achieve, surround yourself with the right people, build a team, and eventually, find your own voice.
In this episode, I chat with Bradley Watson of Watson Estates about the insights I’ve gained over the years I’ve spent in real estate and podcasting. I then share some actionable steps so that you can level up and make an impact. I also weigh in on what I consider to be my best investment and break down my “trade in-trade out” strategy.
Here are some key takeaways from today’s show:
The difference between knowledge and wisdom
How to turn things around when you fall out of love with real estate
Study the growth curve of your market
How to sell yourself and your message
Why I’m into new construction houses
How to attract investors with high net worths
And so much more...
Bradley Watson started out as a financial advisor around the same time he got into the real estate space. He is also the host of Toronto's #1 real estate podcast and a pretty cool dad.

People with substantial wealth are always looking for places/things to invest in
How to sell your services (or a deal) to investors
Consistent daily action over a long period of time
Be realistic with your numbers
Treat raising capital like a business within a business
And so much more...
