  • Robert Howell: Affordable Housing, Mobile Home Parks & Building a Legacy Through Real Estate
    Mar 26 2026
    Robert Howell is a South Carolina-based real estate investor, entrepreneur, and founder of Howell & Sons—a family-driven company focused on honest, values-based real estate. With a background in land acquisitions, mobile home parks, and affordable land-home development, Robert builds opportunities that serve both investors and local communities. Rooted in faith, family, and long-term thinking, Robert believes real estate should be simple, transparent, and built to last. His mission goes beyond buying and selling property—he’s committed to helping families secure affordable housing, supporting landowners with win-win solutions, and creating generational impact through ethical investing. When he’s not building projects across the Southeast, Robert is a husband and father of two boys, dedicated to raising his family with the same values he brings to business: honesty, legacy, and community. In this episode, Dante and Robert discuss:How Robert transitioned from event marketing into intentional real estate investingWhy affordable housing, mobile home parks, and land home packages became his primary focusThe strategy behind buying and improving mobile home parksHow investors can structure win-win deals that benefit both communities and investorsThe role of faith, honesty, and long-term thinking in building a real estate businessKey Takeaways: Affordable housing presents both a financial opportunity and a meaningful mission. Investors can create profitable deals while also addressing a growing housing need in communities.Real estate investing often requires balancing two strategies at once. Short-term deals generate the cash flow needed today, while long-term assets like mobile home parks build wealth for the future.Simplicity can still be effective in real estate analysis. A straightforward approach; reviewing rent rolls, estimating expenses, and evaluating cash flow can quickly reveal whether a deal is viable.Many misconceptions exist about mobile home parks. In reality, most residents are hardworking individuals and families simply seeking a safe and affordable place to live.Patience and consistency are essential for success in real estate investing. The investors who continue to show up, learn, and execute over time are the ones who ultimately build lasting results. “If you can do that and you can go to sleep at night knowing that you operate honestly, that you made a reasonable profit, then I think that's a good path to go.” - Robert HowellConnect with Robert Howell:Website: https://howellandsons.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-howell-b706ba368/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bobbyquatro Connect with Dante Royster:Website: https://www.danteroyster.com/Epic Mortgage Website: Epic Mortgage, Inc.

  • Justin Lund: Breaking the Capacity Ceiling & Designing Founder Freedom
    Mar 19 2026
    Justin Lund is an entrepreneur and mentor who has built and exited multiple companies. His journey includes overcoming addiction recovery and navigating a legal battle that cost him tens of millions, experiences that shaped his approach to business and life. Today, he helps founders break through their capacity ceiling—the point where hustle stops working—by teaching mindset shifts, implementing smart systems, and mastering delegation, enabling business owners to step back without losing control.In this episode, Dante and Justin discuss:How addiction recovery shaped Justin’s leadership philosophy and framework-driven thinkingThe concept of the “capacity ceiling” and why most founders get stuck thereWhy hiring out of order derails scale and increases burnoutThe power of quick wins to create momentum and reclaim timeBuilding culture first—and why you must “hire for the soul, train for the role.”Key Takeaways: Systems are built for your worst days, not your best ones. If your structure only works when you’re at peak performance, it will eventually collapse under pressure.Most founders don’t lack effort—they lack sequencing. Hiring the wrong role at the wrong time often creates more complexity, payroll strain, and frustration instead of relief.The capacity ceiling shows up as a revenue “thermostat.” You grow to a certain level, hit burnout, pull back, then hustle again—never breaking through to the next stage.Culture must be intentional before scale is possible. Without clearly defined values and vision, even talented hires will drift and weaken the foundation.Freedom starts with reclaiming time. When founders recover even five to ten hours per week through delegation and optimization, clarity and better decision-making follow. “If you had the answers to get to the next level and they were in the six inches between your ears, you would have already reached the next level.” - Justin LundConnect with Justin Lund:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-lund-propel/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/justin.lund.propel/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsjustinlund/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itsjustinlund Connect with Dante Royster:Website: https://www.danteroyster.com/Epic Mortgage Website: Epic Mortgage, Inc.

  • Ari Rastegar: The Gift of Failure, Meditation, and Building Billions with Discipline
    Mar 12 2026
    Ari Rastegar is a multifaceted entrepreneur, real estate innovator, biohacker, and author. Born in Austin, Texas, Ari began his real estate journey in law school with just $3,000 — a leap that grew into Rastegar Property Company, a powerhouse firm with over 3.5 million square feet of developments across 38 U.S. cities. Dubbed the “Oracle of Austin” by Forbes, Ari is now leading a bold new vision in Dallas, which he calls “Wall Street to Y’all Street,” bridging elite finance with Main Street opportunity. Beyond real estate, Ari is deeply committed to health and performance, incorporating cutting-edge biohacking practices into his life — from stem-cell therapy to hyperbaric oxygen treatments — insights that have earned him features in The Wall Street Journal, GQ, and The New York Post. He is also the author of The Gift of Failure, where he shares powerful lessons on resilience, mindset, and turning setbacks into success.In this episode, Dante and Ari discuss:Meditation as a non-negotiable investment in mental clarity and leadershipHow to filter advice in a world “drowning in information but starved for wisdom.”Planning for the unplannable: lessons from early business failuresThe future of real estate development, AI, robotics, and global opportunityWhat “winning” really means at different stages of life and businessKey Takeaways: Confidence is built, not inherited. When you consistently keep the promises you make to yourself, you develop personal integrity, and that integrity becomes self-trust over time.Meditation is not passive relaxation; it is preparation for performance. Investing 20 minutes a day in mental clarity can directly impact decision-making, leadership, and emotional regulation.Not all advice is created equal. Seeking wisdom from those who have achieved what you want filters noise and accelerates meaningful progress.True leadership requires planning for what could go wrong. Stress-testing decisions and preparing for unforeseen risks creates resilience in both business and life.Innovation in real estate will be driven by technology, automation, AI, and faster construction methods. The next 10–20 years will redefine development, infrastructure, and global expansion opportunities. “The promises you keep to yourself are what's called personal integrity.” - Ari RastegarConnect with Ari Rastegar:Website: https://rastegarcapital.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arirastegar/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rastegar Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@arirastegar Connect with Dante Royster:Website: https://www.danteroyster.com/Epic Mortgage Website: Epic Mortgage, Inc.
