Tribe Builders
From the day I left my 9 to 5 job and created financial freedom through real estate, my life has transformed for the better. I owe it all to the community that I became a part of and continued to build. The relationships, information, and resources provided changed my life and I want to do the same for you. Each week I will provide tools and tips and stories on how to achieve freedom.

49: Real Estate the Adrian Way: Community, Curiosity & a Bold Yellow Uniform
This Week on Tribe Builders: Adrian Smude—The Guy in Yellow I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Adrian Smude for this week's episode of Tribe Builders, and let me tell you—this guy is the epitome of having a vibe. Even the way I first heard about him was unforgettable… it involved a snowmobile and a yellow Speedo. Yes, really. And once I got him on the phone? The vibe continued. Adrian has carved out a niche in real estate that I didn’t even know existed. He’s spent the last 22+ years in the game, building deep relationships and leaning on those connections to navigate the ever-evolving real estate landscape. He’s built a name for himself as “the guy in yellow”—and I mean that literally. He only wears yellow when he leaves the house. Steve Jobs had his black turtleneck… Adrian’s got a full-on sunshine uniform. In this episode, we cover: His journey from single-family homes to land and mobile homes Why he only buys within a 30-minute radius of one town How he leans into asking for help and building a strong community His thoughts on 80 hours vs. 40 hours of work The way he markets, networks, and shares what he’s learned If you’re looking for a fresh perspective, some solid real estate insight, and a whole lot of vibe—this episode’s for you.
