    Today’s episode introduces the fundamental, principle-based, philosophical approach that is the framework for our success and the success of our clients.

    • It isn’t just showing up one day and saying that you have won

  • Partnering With Inflation

    “As a real estate investor, inflation increases the value of your properties.” -Adam York

    In today’s episode, Kevin gets together with Adam York, Account Executive for DFY Real Estate, to discuss how you can put inflation to work for you.

    Most people view inflation through very negative lenses. That isn’t something new, and while we may not love the idea of inflation, the essential truth here is that if we can’t fix the fact that inflation is ever-present, we must change the way we view it and learn to use it to our benefit. 

    What if you could actually partner with inflation? What if it could help you achieve your income goals? We know there is a way you can do this and more. A method that will make you like inflation instead of despising it because it exists.

    So, if this sounds interesting enough, click the button and don’t miss this episode!

    Key Takeaways:

    • Introduction (0:00)
    • Real estate hedges inflation (8:02)
    • How many ounces of gold did a home cost in 1970 vs. 2021? (15:39)
    • The benefits of inflation (20:00)

    • Should I wait to buy because the prices are very high now? (31:16)

  • The Secrets of Finding Properties In Tight Markets

    “We aren’t just buying. We’re leveraging relationships and years of experience.” -Kevin Clayson

    Today’s episode talks about how we get properties to purchase and help our clients do the same.

    We discuss how we use our relationships with suppliers to get exceptional properties, which is probably the essential part of the equation. Also, be ready to listen about how those same contacts and relationships help us supply our clients with properties from:

    • New construction homes in prosperous markets
    • Existing construction homes we find on the MLS
    • Homes that never hit the open market 

    Those last resources are available because our contacts allow us to access inventory others cannot access. Isn’t that cool? You will learn about that and some more!

    Key Takeaways:

    • Introduction (0:00)

  • Property Values?...

    “If you’re a prepared buyer, it’s always a good time to buy.” -Kevin Clayson

    Today’s episode is about the difference between market value, asking price, and appraised value.

    In this unique and brand-new market situation, all three values may differ, but they would all align in a “normal” market. We discuss how to look at these various values and their impact on an individual’s purchasing power right now. 

    We are sure that this can make a difference in your life. If you understand the market, you can invest and make your moves without fear. In that lies the importance of going beyond the standard industry practices and following a more practical approach to real estate (one that gets you better results and more freedom).

    In principle and philosophically, real estate can help to replace one’s income bit by bit over time. It can work for you twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, even when you don’t think about it. 

    And so, the more you understand it, the more you can benefit from it.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Introduction (0:00)
    • There’s a need for more prepared buyers (4:50)
    • A property’s worth is whatever someone is willing to pay (7:35)
    • Some people are even paying above the asking price (15:14)
    • If you’re a prepared buyer, it’s always a good time to buy (24:13)
    • If you understand the market, you can invest without fear (25:41)

  • There’s Been A Death...

    In today’s episode, we talk about the death of the 1% Rule in real estate investing.

    “Rules of thumb aren’t bad, but they can get in the way of good investments.” -Kevin Clayson

    The 1% Rule is a rent to price rule that has dictated the “what makes a good investment property” conversation for a decade.

    This rule was the judging value of whether or not investors wanted to look at a specific property. Since it is just a simple metric (based on what the rent is and what the purchase price is), following it religiously led many people to overlook good deals and waste time where they could have been receiving cash flow.

    The unspoken part about the 1% rule is that only about 1% of the properties meet that criteria. That’s very few properties. The truth is that this rule does not work and is no longer a viable way to evaluate a property.

    Dive in to get all of the details.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Introduction (0:00)
    • The death of the 1% Rule (6:22)
    • The unspoken part about the 1% Rule (8:58)
    • The importance of calculating the opportunity cost (11:04)
    • Properties have multiple profit centers (14:25)
    • A sports analogy to deepen on these concepts (25:00)

  • How To Make The Most Out Of Your Property Manager

    In today’s episode, we discuss some of the thoughts and principles that will help investors make the most of their relationship with their property manager.

    “Property managers love our clients because we provide them with a high-quality product.” -Kevin Clayson

    The property management companies that we work with genuinely care about the property, our clients’ experience, and their goal is to make money on the property and that our clients are happy.

    However, not every real estate investor goes through the same experience. Many people go and try to find a property manager, somebody that can rent the home out. The issues start because they don’t interview that property manager and find out the best way to work with them or how they will communicate with you and you with them. 

    Just like communication, there are other things we can do to get the most out of our property management experience, and we want to talk a little bit about that today.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Good property management makes properties profitable (9:56)
    • Why good communication with your property manager is essential (14:34)
    • Every property management company has different personalities (19:41)
    • Understanding how economic incentivization drives property managers (25:48)
    • Develop a good relationship with your property manager (29:11)
    • Episode wrap-up (32:14)

About The Moneyball Real Estate Show

From the publisher's feed

This is where real estate meets real results. Each week, Kevin Clayson and Steve Earl, founders of DFY Real Estate, reveal how everyday Americans are quietly building retirement wealth by playing real-life Moneyball with real estate. This isn’t some “swing for the fences” gamble—this is a conservative, proven approach built on hitting real estate singles over and over again.
