Ep 83: How We're Unlocking Exclusive Real Estate Deals for Our Students

Episode Description

I've been quietly working on something behind the scenes that I'm finally ready to share with Budget Dog Academy students, exclusive access to private real estate deals that were previously only available to wealthy, accredited investors. This isn't just another investment opportunity; it's a game-changer that removes the traditional barriers that keep everyday people locked out of these high-return deals.

In this episode, I break down exactly what this new real estate business is, why I built it, and how it benefits Academy students. I'll explain what "accredited investor" status means, the typical barriers to entry (like $1 million net worth requirements and $50-100k minimums), and how I've negotiated with top syndicators across the country to bypass these old rules while actually getting students better terms than going direct.

This business venture was a natural evolution built on years of relationships, vetting, and leverage I've developed in the industry. I'm not just giving students access; I'm giving them vetted deal flow with shared incentives where everyone wins when the deals perform well.
