My First Deal

In this episode of My First Deal, Which Ultimately Led to Millions, Phillip Warrick sits down with private money expert Jay Conner to talk about the deal that started it all—and the setback that changed everything. Jay shares how losing access to bank financing pushed him to discover private money, eventually helping him fund hundreds of real estate deals without relying on traditional lenders. They also discuss raising private capital, finding lenders in your existing network, lease options, creative selling, and why having the right mentors can accelerate your success. If you want to learn how relationships, creative financing, and the right mindset can help you scale your real estate business, this episode is for you.

In this episode of My First Deal Which Ultimately Led to Millions, host Phillip Warrick sits down with Gina Weibel, a seasoned entrepreneur and Owners Club member who helped close 52 wrap-style real estate deals in a single year using a unique LLC share-based structure.

Gina shares how she transitioned from private money lending and multifamily investing into a scalable SubTo + wrap model designed to protect investors, preserve the underlying mortgage, and create real paths to homeownership. She breaks down the importance of reserves (“the war chest”), why funds exist, and the red flags she learned—sometimes the hard way—when vetting operators and deals.

This conversation is packed with real-world lessons on underwriting, capital raising, partnership alignment, and building systems that scale without sacrificing integrity.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

- How Gina’s team closed 52 wrap-style deals in one year
- Why an LLC + share structure can reduce wrap risk
- The role of reserves and missed-payment buffers
- When investment clubs work—and when a fund makes more sense
- Red flags to watch for when lending or partnering
- Why values, structure, and systems matter as much as returns

If you’re investing in creative finance, raising capital, or looking to scale safely, this episode delivers insight you can use immediately.

Real estate investor, RV park specialist, and AI enthusiast who has flipped, developed, or acquired 250+ units. Jordan focuses on creating cash-flowing RV parks through creative finance and strong operations—on a mission to help 5,000 people build a solid financial foundation.

In this episode:

How a well-drilling business led Jordan into new construction and then commercial deals

Why RV parks are a “last frontier” with under-the-radar upside

Cap rates in plain English (and why terms often matter more than price)

Packaging deals, negotiating seller finance, and structuring low-down, low-rate debt

The turning point: choosing collaboration over competition (and partnering with Pace)

Building the team: ops director, asset manager, marketing, and on-site managers

Lifestyle vs. corporate investors in RV parks—and which path fits you

Taking imperfect action, getting in the right rooms, and earning instant credibility

Key Takeaways:

You can “create a deal” with the right terms even when the cap rate looks tight.

People > Numbers: credibility opens doors and better conversations with sellers.

Partnerships accelerate scale—borrow the team, then build your own.

Don’t over-study. Imperfect action beats endless research.
