In this week’s episode of The Real Estate Rundown with Owen & Ted, things get real — and not just in real estate. Owen opens up about navigating the emotional rollercoaster of house hunting for his own family (spoiler: it’s way harder than investing), dealing with a lawn-obsessed neighbor, and nearly selling a property that’s printing money… until he crunched the numbers and realized maybe not.

Ted shares a raw look at the reality of short-term rentals, including a $7,000 booking gone sideways thanks to a frozen A/C and 3 a.m. guest messages. The guys dig into how tracking your business metrics (and your blind spots) can be the game-changer, not just for real estate, but for your life.

They also tee up the upcoming REIA Radio interview with business ninja Kirk Jaffe — a serial entrepreneur, coach to the stars, and fixer of broken businesses. If your books are a mess or you’re tired of pretending to understand your QuickBooks file, you need to hear this guy.

As always, the best takeaways come from their real-life screw-ups, wins, and those moments you don’t hear on stage. Whether you're a landlord, flipper, or just trying to figure out if your wife will actually move 13 minutes from the school — this one hits home.

If you’re digging the real talk, do us a solid — leave a 5-star review wherever you listen. It helps us keep the podcast alive and continue sharing the stuff real investors actually care about. Drop a written review and we might just read it on-air.
