A Few Paid Off Rentals Is All You Need For Financial Freedom With Jeremy Smith (Ep 559)

A Few Paid Off Rentals Is All You Need For Financial Freedom With Jeremy Smith (Ep 559)
On this episode, I’m joined by Jeremy Smith, an investor who proves you don’t need hundreds or thousands of rental properties to be successful. Jeremy owns just a few rentals, but they generate enough monthly cash flow to cover all of his living expenses. Jeremy still works a full-time job, but his rentals give him a powerful safety net. If his income dips in a slow month or an unexpected expense pops up, the extra cash flow from his properties helps absorb the hit and keeps stress low. We talk about why Jeremy focuses on low-maintenance, high-quality properties instead of chasing scale, and how that approach has allowed him to keep things simple. He shares how he paid off his rentals, how long it took, and why minimizing personal overhead has been just as important as optimizing his investments. We also discuss the constant temptation of lifestyle inflation and how he works to keep it in check. Jeremy opens the books and walks through his real numbers, including total rent collected, expenses, and cash flow. We also cover how much time he spends managing his rentals each month, how he collects rent, how he screens tenants, and the worst thing that’s happened to him as a rental property investor.

Easy Ways to Increase Your Income (Without Buying More Rentals) With Joel Miller (Ep 558)
Joel has been investing in rental properties for 48 years and has figured out how to increase rental income without buying more properties. On this episode, Joel shares practical strategies he uses to get more cash flow from the rentals he already owns. We talk about how he keeps up with rent increases to make sure his properties stay profitable, along with inexpensive upgrades that help units look better and command higher rent. Joel explains his approach to flooring, including LVP vs. carpet, and whether it makes sense to make tenants responsible for washer and dryer repairs. The conversation also covers how pets can be profitable, whether landlords should charge a pet fee or pet rent, and how to reduce vacancies during the slower winter months. Joel shares his thoughts on when an upgrade stops making financial sense, which improvements often fail to deliver a good return, and how to avoid over-improving rental properties.

How He Built His Rental Portfolio With No Money With Tim Delaney (Ep 557)

How He Built His Rental Portfolio With No Money With Tim Delaney (Ep 557)
Tim Delaney has built a diversified real estate portfolio that includes long-term rentals, a short-term rental, and a strip mall. What makes his story especially interesting is that his very first deal was the strip mall, and he bought it with zero money out of pocket. On this episode, Tim breaks down how that deal came together and how a simple conversation with his banker introduced him to the BRRRR strategy. Tim knew he wanted to rehab properties, but he also knew his limits. He wasn’t a contractor and didn’t have deep construction knowledge. Instead of forcing it, he partnered with a friend who was a contractor. That partnership became a key turning point, with his partner handling rehabs while Tim focused on management, financing, and the numbers. We also dig into the day-to-day reality of managing rentals. Tim shares how much time property management actually takes, and the software he uses to stay organized. Finally, we talk about Tim’s Airbnb and whether the higher returns are truly worth the extra time and effort that short-term rentals demand.

Why He Sold All Of His Rentals With Ron Faraci (Ep 556)
Ron took an unconventional path to financial freedom. He was living a comfortable life in California when he realized his money would go a whole lot farther buying rentals somewhere else. So he packed up, moved across the country to Connecticut, and got to work building a rental portfolio from the ground up. Over the next several years, he bought properties, self-managed tenants, handled maintenance, and slowly created the income stream he needed .But after plenty of tenant phone calls, turnovers, and years of being on duty 24/7, Ron felt the tug for something different. He was ready to step away from full-time landlord life and enjoy the freedom he’d earned. On this episode, Ron shares how he knew it was truly time to sell, and how he pulled it off without scaring tenants into leaving. He walks us through the logistics of marketing properties quietly, and dealing with a giant tax bill from both appreciation gains and depreciation recapture. We also dig into what comes next. Ron explains how he’s covering his living expenses today, the systems he has in place to keep his money working for him, and whether he ever worries about running out of money now that rent checks aren’t rolling in every month.

How to Make More Money by Buying Smaller, Simpler Rentals With Terry Kerr (Ep 555)
Terry Kerr didn’t get it right when he first started buying rental properties. In fact, he made just about every mistake you can make. He bought in the wrong areas, took on rehabs himself to “save money,” hired the wrong people, and bought properties that were either too big or too small to work as profitable rentals. Over time, Terry figured out what actually matters. He found the sweet spot for the ideal rental property and built a system around it. On this episode, Terry breaks down what he learned from those early missteps, what he looks for now when buying a rental, where he got the money to get started, and how he financed his purchases along the way.' Terry also believes tenant retention is the real name of the game. He shares exactly how he keeps good tenants long-term, how he prices and positions his rentals, and how he creates a massive pool of applicants whenever he has a vacancy.

He Builds Rentals Cheaper Than He Can Buy Them With Tyler Casey (Ep 536)
Most real estate investors assume buying existing rentals is the fastest path to cash flow. But what if you could build them cheaper, and end up with a property that performs better long-term? That’s exactly what Tyler Casey discovered. On this episode, Tyler breaks down the strategy that’s allowing him to out-build the market. He shares why the right floor plan can be a game-changer, how repeating the same blueprint cuts costs and saves time, and the small design details that dramatically reduce maintenance headaches down the road. We dive into the financing he’s using, walk through the actual numbers on one of his recent builds, and compare new construction to rehabs, and why building can actually be the easier, smarter move. Tyler also takes us back to his beginnings, buying his first rentals at just 18, and shows how his approach has evolved into something far more scalable. Along the way, we unpack the hidden advantages of building vs. buying: tax benefits, lower operating costs, higher rent potential, better tenant quality, and even cheaper insurance.

How He Retired Off Rentals At 46 With Jason Hull (Ep 535)
Jason Hull retired at just 46 years old and now spends most of the year traveling with his wife in search of the perfect climate. His lifestyle is funded by his rental income. But Jason didn’t get there overnight. He started out buying foreclosures, fixing them up, and renting them out.\ When COVID hit, everything changed—labor shortages, material shortages, and rising costs made his strategy nearly impossible. Instead of giving up, Jason made a bold move: he sold his entire portfolio and rebuilt it from scratch with new construction rentals. On this episode, you’ll hear how Jason pulled it off, why tenant screening is even more critical when you’re renting out brand-new homes, and the systems he uses to manage everything while traveling 8–9 months a year.
