Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! In this solo episode, we're digging into a topic I get asked about all the time—incorporating your business. Should you do it? When does it actually make sense? We’ll explore the real reasons why someone—whether you're a business owner, real estate investor, or a registered professional—might consider incorporating.

We’ll also break down how incorporation stacks up against personal tax strategies like RRSPs and TFSAs, and the actual benefits you can expect—from tax deferrals to potential asset protection.

It’s a numbers-heavy episode, but if you stick with me, I promise it’ll be worth it. Got questions? I’m always open to chat more and hear your thoughts.

Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! I’m your host, Cody Krauss—real estate broker, owner, and someone who's been obsessed with all things real estate since I was 18. From investing and building to developing and even farming land, I’ve seen it all—and I love sharing the journey with you.

Today, I’m joined by Adam Nadler, a realtor from York, Ontario and founder of Vision Real Estate. We dive into Adam’s career path and tackle a wide range of topics—from real estate and economic trends to central bank policies in both Canada and the U.S., inflation, and where the market might be headed.

We also venture into the world of digital currency—specifically Bitcoin. I learned a ton during this conversation and realized how much more there is to understand. Whether you're a real estate investor or just curious about how macroeconomics and crypto intersect with the housing market, this episode’s packed with insight.

Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! Today’s episode is a rollercoaster ride through nearly six decades of investing, entrepreneurship, and real estate hustle with my good friend Ed Keck.

Buckle up — because Ed’s story is anything but ordinary. He started trading precious metals at age 12, bought his first property at 16, got his real estate license at 18, and then… became an industrial engineer, a flipper, a private lender, a landlord, a tree seller, and eventually pivoted into the world of dividend investing.

This conversation is packed with insights — from Ed’s unique perspective on using other people’s money to the power of understanding negative real interest rates, and how to make smart decisions by comparing the cost of borrowing versus the potential returns from income-generating assets.

⚠️ Important note: This is not financial advice. Please consult with a licensed professional before making any investment decisions. What you’ll hear is one man’s experience, his evolving strategy, and how he’s built a portfolio over 59 years of smart (and sometimes wild) moves.

Get ready for some gold nuggets — and as always, we cover everything real estate along the way.

Let's go.

Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! We’re celebrating a major milestone — our one-year anniversary and 52nd episode — and we’ve got two powerhouse guests joining us: Jaimie Robbins and Richard Robbins from RRI (Richard Robbins International).

In this special episode, we dive deep into what it really means to go narrow and go deep in your business, why getting back to basics is more important than ever, and how to stay accountable in both your career and your life. Jaimie and Richard bring a ton of value, offering timeless advice for realtors navigating today’s market—or any market.

Whether you’re a seasoned agent or just starting out, this episode is packed with insights, inspiration, and some real talk about what it takes to succeed in real estate and beyond.

Let’s get to it — hit play and enjoy the show!

Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! In this episode, we're joined by Travis Sartori — a seasoned realtor and certified home appraiser from Windsor. Travis dives into his journey into real estate, what keeps him passionate about the business, and why he added appraising to his toolkit.

We also explore life beyond the listings — from coaching kids' football and managing a bustling household to renovation tips (what’s worth it and what’s not) and the nearly forgotten art of in-person offer presentations.

It's an honest, insightful, and at times hilarious conversation you won't want to miss. Give it a listen, and if you enjoy it, drop us some feedback — we’d love to hear what you think.

Thanks for tuning in to another episode of The Everything Real Estate Show. Today’s conversation takes a different tone—but it’s one we all eventually face.

We discuss what phone calls to make first, the changing funeral industry, and how real estate and estate planning play a role in end-of-life transitions.

Welcome back to The Everything Real Estate Show! I'm Cody Kraus — a real estate broker, investor, and someone who's been immersed in real estate since I was 18 years old. This show is where I share everything I’ve learned through years of trial and error, and bring on some of the most interesting people I’ve met in the business to talk about all things real estate.

In today’s solo episode, I’m diving into a question I get asked all the time: why should you own a home? I’ll be talking about the real benefits of owning versus renting, what makes owning rental property so appealing, and how to actually get started if you’re thinking about buying your first home or investment property. Whether it’s a place to live or your first step toward building a real estate portfolio, this episode is all about helping you understand the value of ownership and how to make it happen. 

Let’s get into it.
