What if you could sell a business or a building and legally keep more of the upside? In this episode, David Wilson pulls back the curtain on practical, battle-tested strategies from donor-advised funds that front-load deductions to the often-missed QSBS play that can zero-out $10M–$15M of capital gains (per shareholder!) when structured right. No hype, just the frameworks sophisticated investors actually use.

Listen now to hear the exact sequencing David recommends for exits without a 1031.

What if you could do 10 commercial deals a year…

…without raising a dime from friends and family? …without building a single new structure? …without dealing with leaky roofs or clogged toilets?

In this episode, Blake from Steel Peak Properties reveals how he's quietly scaling a real estate empire in one of the least talked about niches in the industry: Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS).

We dig into:

• The little-known asset class that's hiding in plain sight

• How institutional equity partners fund 95% of the deal—and why they're okay with it

• Why the best money isn't in the equity… it's in the fees and the promote

• How he's leasing old contractor yards to national tenants like Sunbelt and United Rentals

• And how you can start playing in this space even if you've never raised capital before

If you've been looking for a way to scale fast, without being crushed by complexity, this is the blueprint.

🎧 Listen in—you may never look at real estate the same way again.

From Rock Bottom to $100K/Month: How Quentin West Hacked Airbnb Without Owning Real Estate

What do you do when your back's against the wall, you're broke, jobless, and facing foreclosure?

In this episode, you'll hear how Quentin stumbled into short-term rentals starting with one desperate move, a QuickBooks invoice, and a credit card. From sleeping at his parents' house to scaling a 47-unit Airbnb empire (without owning a single property), Quentin built his business fast and nearly lost it all just as quickly.

Sneak peek of this episode:

• The wild origin story that started with a pet cremation company renting his home

• How he scaled to $150K/month… and then burned it to the ground

• Creative tactics he used to crawl out of $73K/month in debt

• Why arbitrage nearly broke him—and how he reinvented the business with "fractional hosting"

• His game plan to sell his biz for $2M+ and jump into boutique hotels

• The dark side of scaling fast—and how he saved not just his portfolio, but other people's marriages

And if you've never heard of "fractional Airbnb hosting" before, you're not alone… Quentin may have just invented a whole new lane in the STR space.

Would you risk your last dollar on an idea you barely understand but believe in enough to go all in?

All before they had a factory… or a team to build them.

In this wild episode, Boxabl co-founder Galiano Tiramani reveals how they went from zero to mass production of foldable houses — a startup idea so disruptive it caught the attention of billionaires and government agencies alike. Think you know prefab housing? Think again.

We dive into:

• Why their houses literally fold up to fit on a standard truck

• How they ship cheaper than mobile homes and install in hours — no wide-load escorts needed

• The moment Elon Musk slid into their inbox asking to buy one (and why he only got one)

• The insane regulatory maze that's strangling innovation — and how Boxabl is fighting through it

• Why light gauge steel construction might kill traditional lumber for good

• How RV park owners and developers can flip vacant land into cash-flowing rentals almost instantly

This isn't a startup. It's a housing revolution. And it all started with an idea sitting on a shelf for 20 years. Let's dive in!
