Thomas Collins explains house hacking, multifamily investing, and how to make your assets pay for your lifestyle—starting with your first property.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Thomas Collins, founder of Shift Rich Academy, to break down one of the most powerful entry points into real estate investing: house hacking.

Thomas shares how a single conversation at his day job sparked a mindset shift that led him from renting at $1,400/month to owning a duplex where his tenants paid nearly the entire mortgage. He explains why multifamily properties (especially duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes) are the smartest first move for new investors—and how FHA loans make it possible with just 3.5% down.

The conversation goes deep into:

1. House hacking vs flips (and why HGTV gets it wrong)
2. Establishing your buy box when you plan to live in the property
3. Using short-term rentals to dramatically increase cash flow
4. Costly mistakes with tenants, licenses, and partnerships
5. Why systems, virtual assistants, and AI prevent real estate from becoming another job
6. How confidence explodes after the first deal
7. Why waiting for “perfect” kills momentum

This episode is packed with real-world lessons, beginner clarity, and systems thinking for anyone sitting on the sidelines.

Eddie Speed explains why note investing is outperforming rentals, how investors become the bank, and why seller financing is the next shift.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Eddie Speed, founder of NoteSchool, to break down why note investing and seller financing are rapidly outperforming traditional rental properties in today’s market.

Eddie explains why rising expenses, compressed cap rates, and stagnant rents are breaking the rental model—and how investors are pivoting by becoming the bank instead. He shares how landlords, realtors, and investors can transition from owning rentals that barely cash flow to holding performing notes generating double-digit returns with far fewer headaches.

The conversation dives deep into:

1. Why rentals are producing 4% while notes can produce 9–12%
2. How seller financing creates instant liquidity
3. Turning landlords into “mini mortgage banks”
4. Why rate cuts don’t fix rental math
5. How stress-testing strategies prevents catastrophic losses
6. Blockchain, automation, and the future of mortgage notes
7. Why mentorship compresses decades of learning into months

If you’re a real estate investor questioning your current strategy—or searching for safer, more scalable cash flow—this episode is a must-watch.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Mitchell Osmond, founder of Dad Nation and host of the Dad Nation Podcast, for a powerful conversation on marriage, masculinity, leadership, and emotional connection.

Mitchell works exclusively with high-performing, career-driven men who feel successful professionally—but disconnected, confused, or powerless at home.

2. The wiring differences between men and women (and why it matters)
3. Why 70–90% of divorces are initiated by women
4. How emotional disconnection—not money or cheating—ends marriages
5. The “Powerful at Work, Powerless at Home” identity crisis
6. Parkinson’s Law and a simple productivity system that restores focus
7. How clarity, community, and legacy thinking transform men
8. Why generational wealth is about behavior, not money

Giuseppe Grammatico explains franchising, AI automation, and how real estate investors use franchises to build predictable cash flow and scale smarter.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Giuseppe Grammatico, franchise consultant and founder of GG The Franchise Guide, to break down how franchising intersects with real estate investing, cash flow, and AI-powered operations.

Giuseppe shares his journey from Wall Street to entrepreneurship, why franchising is often misunderstood, and how “business-in-a-box” models help investors shortcut years of trial and error. He explains how real estate investors can leverage franchises for recession-resistant income, vendor consolidation, and even hybrid landlord-style models like salon suites and property services.

The conversation dives deep into franchise due diligence, why lines out the door don’t equal profitability, how to avoid shiny object syndrome, and what investors must look for inside Item 19 disclosures. Giuseppe also explains how AI is transforming franchising—from AI call agents handling 1,000 calls at once to backend automation that reduces staff costs without sacrificing human relationships.

If you’re a real estate investor looking to diversify income, stabilize cash flow, or integrate AI into operations, this episode delivers real-world clarity.

Jose Berlanga explains how he created his own real estate market, why focus beats growth, and the costly mistakes developers make chasing trends.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Jose Berlanga, a veteran real estate developer and entrepreneur, to break down how he created demand where none existed—and why focus, patience, and clarity matter more than chasing hot markets.

Jose shares how he started developing inner-city Houston neighborhoods when they were considered “unbuildable,” why fear actually guided his best decisions, and how saturating a small area with consistent product helped him establish pricing power and brand recognition long before the market caught up.

The conversation dives deep into developer psychology, long real estate cycles, why chasing higher price points almost derailed his business, and the hard-earned leadership lessons he learned building (and rebuilding) teams. Jose also delivers one of the clearest frameworks you’ve heard on hiring, focus, and avoiding shiny object syndrome as an entrepreneur.

This is a masterclass in long-term thinking for developers, investors, and business owners.

David Morgan explains gold, silver, real estate, and why the dollar is losing trust—plus how investors protect wealth when the monetary system breaks.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with David Morgan, founder of The Morgan Report and one of the most respected analysts in precious metals, to unpack what’s really happening inside the global monetary system.

David shares how his fascination with money started as a child noticing the difference between silver coins and debased currency, and how that curiosity led to more than four decades analyzing markets, banking systems, and hard assets.

The conversation dives deep into why gold and silver function as trust-based assets, how real estate behaves differently in inflationary vs high-rate environments, and why rising debt, stablecoins, and global de-dollarization matter to everyday investors. David also explains where crypto fits (and doesn’t), how to actually buy precious metals safely, common myths investors believe, and why unrealistic expectations hurt long-term returns.

You’ll also hear the story behind his documentary Silver Sunrise, lessons from building a long-running research business, and why critical thinking—not fear—is the most valuable investment skill today.

David C. Barnett breaks down buying small businesses vs real estate, the risks investors overlook, and how to build resilient, cash-flowing companies.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with David C. Barnett, author of The Business Fortress and one of the most respected voices in small business acquisition, to unpack the real differences between buying businesses and investing in real estate.

David shares his journey from business brokerage to banking to building a global advisory firm helping buyers and sellers avoid catastrophic mistakes. He explains why business brokerage is fundamentally broken, how leverage cuts both ways in small businesses, and why “absentee ownership” is one of the most dangerous myths investors believe.

You’ll learn why operational leverage can destroy profits overnight, how liquidity (not growth) determines survival, why balance sheets matter more than P&Ls, and how long-term content creation (YouTube, books, email) quietly outperforms flashy marketing tactics.

This episode is a must-watch for real estate investors considering business acquisitions—and for entrepreneurs who want to build a business fortress that survives downturns and exits cleanly.

Brent Kesler explains infinite banking, how he paid off nearly $1M in debt, and why the wealthy recycle money using the Money Multiplier method.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss welcomes back Brent Kesler, founder of The Money Multiplier, to break down one of the most misunderstood wealth strategies in real estate and investing: infinite banking.

Brent shares how he and his wife eliminated $984,711 of third-party debt in just 39 months—without changing cash flow, working harder, or taking on more risk. He explains how specially designed whole life policies allow investors to recycle and recapture money they’re already spending, turning expenses into long-term wealth.

The conversation covers the origins of the infinite banking concept (Nelson Nash), why many advisors misunderstand it, how real estate investors use it to fund deals repeatedly, and why mindset traps like Arrival Syndrome and Parkinson’s Law keep people broke.

If you want a proven system the wealthy have used for over 250 years—and a way to fund real estate without losing control of your money—this episode delivers clarity and conviction.

Paul do Campo explains why real estate investors lose deals in follow-up, how value-based messaging works, and why human connection beats automation alone.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Paul do Campo, founder of REI Omni Drip, to break down one of the most overlooked profit centers in real estate investing: follow-up.

Paul explains why most investors overspend on lead generation while leaving massive money trapped inside their CRM. He shares how value-based follow-up, storytelling, and multichannel communication (email, SMS, and direct mail) dramatically increase seller responses—without sounding salesy or spammy.

The conversation dives deep into:

• Why “Are you still interested in selling?” no longer works
• How stories outperform sales scripts
• Why email open rates are down—and what to do instead
• How multichannel follow-up revives cold and unresponsive leads
• Why AI tools are becoming commoditized—and how to stay human
• The real reason investors stop following up (hint: emotions)

This episode is a masterclass in follow-up psychology, systems, and long-term deal conversion for wholesalers, flippers, and real estate investors.

Jack shares how he discovered business credit seven years into entrepreneurship, why personal credit unlocks huge business limits, and how he used $500K in approvals to build multiple successful companies. He explains exactly how to structure applications, build banking relationships, avoid common mistakes, and leverage 0% cards safely for real estate, e-com, or any cash-flowing venture.

Jack also discusses partnership lessons, how to avoid giving up equity too early, how to use business lines of credit to extend your 0% period, and how automations + virtual assistants helped him scale.
