  • The Tax Playbook for Real Estate Investors | Ep 70

    Tax pain? Meet the fix. In this episode, Alfonso sits down with CPA Gerry Hogenhout—a real estate investor and tax strategist—to unpack practical, legal ways investors can keep more of what they make. They cover when to use corporations and holding companies, how to stop filing “after the fact,” active vs. passive income, capital gains myths, dividend planning, and why your accountant must understand real estate.

    Gerry also shares his unlikely origin story—from drummer in a KISS tribute band (!) to 40 years saving Canadians serious tax dollars—plus the mindset investors need to thrive no matter who’s in power.

    What you’ll learn:

    The simple structure shift that can cut your tax rate from ~50% to ~12%

    How (and when) to do proactive tax planning (hint: not in April)

    Active income vs. capital gains: when business income beats “cap gains”

    Smart ways to pull money out of your corp (salary, dividends, mgmt fees & more)

    Integrating tax + investing so you stop the “financial leakage”

    Investor-first habits your CPA should already be using

  • Coffee, Dreams & Big Goals: A Candid Conversation with Alfonso Cuadra | Ep 69

    In this special takeover episode, Alfonso trades seats and lets his wife Helene run the show. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like living with the “Godfather of Real Estate,” this is your backstage pass. They unpack Alfonso’s honest (and very human) morning routine, why he guards home as a work-free sanctuary, how a Reader’s Digest feature nudged him from private to public, and the philosophy that still gets him out of bed when he doesn’t have to.

    You’ll hear about conquering a fear of heights with one monumental leap, why he’d consider orbit (but not the first ticket to Mars), the five places on his travel bucket list, the superpower he’d choose (and why it beats every other one), parenting wins, building a marriage that multiplies momentum, and—yes—his guilty-pleasure TV universe. It’s vulnerable, practical, funny, and full of takeaways on designing a life that keeps expanding.

    What you’ll learn

    A realistic, no-hype morning routine that still powers high output

    The path from private upbringing to public mission—and how audience = impact

    Using fear as a compass (and why action beats anxiety)

    The “expansion” mindset: grow or die—and how to keep creating after “enough”

    Partner dynamics: dividing roles at home to multiply results in business

    Alfonso’s mantra: “Success is what you attract by the person you become.”

  • Multifamily Nightmares: How to Stop Bed Bugs, Roaches & Mice (For Real) | Ep 67

    Bed bugs, roaches, mice… and cash flow. In this Wealth Genius episode, Alfonso sits down with Christian Gilbert, an exterminator and real estate investor, to unpack the true cost of pest infestations in multifamily buildings and the fastest, most reliable ways to fix them.


    Christian shares how a 2012 bed bug crisis pushed him to launch his own pest-control operations and a specialty “last-resort” service (888 SOS BUGS) that treats entire units, and even whole buildings, using high-temperature thermal remediation. We dig into why chemicals often fail (egg survival and resistance), how re-introductions happen even after a “successful” treatment, and why owner control (including enforcing prep, sealing building penetrations, and, when necessary, evictions) is critical to protect NOI.


    Contact: 888-SOS-BUGS (888sosbugs.com)


    If you own or manage rentals, this episode can save you tens of thousands…and a lot of sleepless nights.

From Alberta’s booming economy to the rising demand for care homes, this conversation explores how investors can position themselves to win in the next decade.

  • Industrial Real Estate: The Overlooked Goldmine with Chad Griffiths | Ep 64

    In this episode of the Wealth Genius Podcast, host Alonso Cuadra sits down with Chad Griffiths, author of Industrialize and host of The Industrial Real Estate Show, to break down the opportunities, challenges, and future trends in industrial real estate.


    From managing $25K/month vacancy risks to leveraging triple-net leases, Chad explains why this niche is both rewarding and risky - and why the shift toward e-commerce, ghost kitchens, and direct-to-consumer models could make industrial the most important asset class of the next decade.


    Chad shares the story of how he went from knowing nothing about warehouses to owning over 160,000 sq. ft. of industrial space, and why location, market understanding, and tenant quality are critical for long-term success.
