In this episode, I sit down with Rob Wilson, a seasoned real estate investor, developer, and lending professional with over 30 years of experience navigating multiple market cycles.

Rob has seen it all booms, busts, stalled projects, rising interest rates, and deals that only worked because they were structured the right way. We go beyond spreadsheets and pro formas to talk about what actually determines success in real estate: resilience, smart financing, strong partnerships, and understanding risk before it shows up.

We dive into:

• How real estate cycles really work and how to invest through them
• Common mistakes investors and developers make when structuring deals
• The developer-lender mindset and why financing strategy matters more than ever
• Lessons learned the hard way that can save you time, money, and stress
• How to think long-term in an uncertain market

Whether you’re investing in ADUs, multifamily, development, or value-add projects, this episode is packed with real-world insight you won’t find in a textbook.
