Quality Over Quantity: Rethinking Leads in the BRRRR Method

Calling in Healthy: Why We Need “Healthy Days” in the Workplace
Have you ever thought about the importance of taking a day off just to focus on yourself? What if your job actually allowed you to call in healthy? What if calling in healthy was as accepted as calling in sick? In this episode, we dive into the concept of "healthy days"—the need for breaks that prioritize our mental and physical well-being. While traditional jobs offer sick days, the idea of taking time off simply to recharge often feels taboo. I share my thoughts on how real estate investing has granted me the flexibility to take those days, allowing me to spend quality time with my family and focus on what truly matters. Join me as we explore the importance of prioritizing health in our busy lives and why employers should consider offering healthy days for all. Links Mentioned in this Episode: Connect with Jay:

It's Time That We All Time The Market
As landlords, we’re caught in a tug-of-war. We want property values to rise for better net worth, but as investors still in acquisition mode, we’re hoping for prices to dip so we can find cash-flowing deals despite high interest rates. So which is it? In this episode, I break down the dilemma landlords face with rising property values, market stability, and the impact of the Fed’s rate cuts. I also explore how the BRRRR strategy could be the answer to eating your cake and having it too. Tune in and join the conversation—are you team rising values or team price dip?

Fed Rate Cuts and Mortgage Rates: Why They’re Not Linked Like You Think
Think the Fed’s rate cut means your mortgage rate will drop? Not so fast. While many real estate "gurus" celebrated last week’s rate cut announcement, the reality is different. Most lenders had already anticipated the cut, meaning there’s little change in mortgage rates now. In this episode, I’ll break down how the Federal Reserve's decisions truly affect mortgage rates, why banks don’t just follow the Fed's lead, and what you should be paying attention to instead. Plus, I’ll share a personal story about how lenders prepare for rate changes well before announcements hit the headlines. Links Mentioned in this Episode: Connect with Jay:

Is FICO Really the Problem, or Do We Not Know How to Play the Game?
Many of us weren’t taught how credit scores work or how to manage credit effectively—we often learn the hard way. As both a landlord and hard money lender, I rely on the FICO system to evaluate potential residents and applicants. But as a borrower, it can feel like this system is designed to punish rather than help. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with your credit score, you’re not alone. It’s easy to believe the system is unfair, especially when a few mistakes can cause a significant drop. But the truth is, FICO isn’t out to get you—it just operates by a set of rules that most of us weren’t taught. This episode explores the realities of the FICO system, breaking down how it works and how you can use that knowledge to your advantage. By understanding the factors that influence your credit score—like payment history, debt burden, and credit utilization—you can make informed decisions that positively impact your financial health. It’s not about fighting the system; it’s about learning how to make it work for you. If you’re ready to take control of your credit journey and stop feeling at the mercy of a number, this episode offers insights that could change the way you approach your finances.

Where Did FICO Come From? The Origins of Your Credit Score
Have you ever wondered where the FICO credit score system came from? It’s easy to assume it’s always been a part of the financial world, but the reality is far more interesting. In this episode, we journey back to 1956, when two engineers, Bill Fair and Earl Isaac, saw a flawed system where credit decisions were based on personal judgments, biases, and inconsistent practices. Determined to change the game, they founded Fair, Isaac, and Company—now known as FICO—on the principle that data, not opinions, should drive financial decisions. We’ll explore how their vision took over three decades to fully materialize, leading to the creation of the FICO score in 1989. By standardizing creditworthiness evaluations, Fair and Isaac’s system brought transparency and consistency to the credit world—benefiting both lenders and consumers. But like any system, FICO isn’t perfect. While it has leveled the playing field for many, it also encourages certain behaviors and can feel like a complex puzzle. Join me as we uncover the history of FICO, its impact on lending and borrowing, and how understanding its roots can help you use it to your advantage—especially when pursuing those low rates for your next BRRRR deal. Stick around for a sneak peek at upcoming episodes where I’ll share tips on how to master the credit game. What part of FICO’s history surprised you the most?
