    The Titanium Vault hosted by RJ Bates III

    RJ Bates III, affectionately referred to as the Viking Wizard by his students, started his real estate investing career in 2014 after attending a real estate education program that put him $65,000 in debt. RJ contracted his first deal he found on the MLS and wholesaled it for a $7,500 assignment fee. That was the end of his former life and the beginning of his venture into becoming a real estate investor.  Since that moment, RJ has become an influential figurehead in the real estate investing industry. He has successfully purchased and sold over 2,000 properties all across the USA including wholesale deals, rehabs, rentals, owner finances and short term rentals.  One of his passions is being the host of The Titanium Vault Podcast where he interviews the top real estate investors and finally, RJ has won back to back Closers Olympics earning him the reputation as the King Closer!

    The Best of 2023 | Pardon The Disruption

    The Best of 2023 | Pardon The Disruption

    Embark on a year-end voyage with us as we reflect on the memorable times and hilarious moments on Pardon the Disruption in 2023. Let's toast to the wisdom gleaned from our special guest, Pace Morby, and navigate the high seas of NFT investing, where we've learned to weigh anchor with caution and sail toward calculated risk. Eric Brewer's rib-tickling roasts and the deep dives into real estate dynamics, like the Closers Olympics, have left us not just with chuckles but with a trove of knowledge to treasure.

    The debate heats up when we tackle the thorny issue of realtor commissions and their sway over home values. Is ditching the realtor a savvy move for homebuyers, or a siren call leading to rocky shores? We dissect the necessity of realtors in the intricate dance of home inspections and repairs and weigh anchor on whether they're indispensable or an added expense. As our discussion sails through these turbulent waters, differing viewpoints emerge like dueling compasses—pointing us toward a horizon of rich conversation and contemplation.

    In our final stretch, we hoist the unsung heroes of the real estate industry to the crow's nest for some much-deserved recognition. From the gritty Disposition manager to the steadfast integrator, we salute the roles that keep our ship on course. We also shine a signal lantern on the smoggy advice that clouds the industry, clarifying the true cost of setting sail in real estate wholesaling. As we dock this journey, we map out the traits that make a captain great—authenticity, personal growth, and a compass set firmly on accountability. Join us for a full-spectrum view of the real estate realm, where we promise you'll leave not just entertained but with a chest full of insightful doubloons.

    Nick Aalerud: Shut Up & Do It

    A former banker turned best selling author, speaker, a mindset and real estate coach, Nick Aalerud has 18 years of experience – in both UP and DOWN markets – across all strategies and asset classes.  Having run a multi-state wholesale, fix & flip and rental operation where the team would do 100+ deals a year in seven states, his firms have syndicated, bought and sold over $100M in real estate, and currently has $20M in assets under management through RV Parks, Multifamily Portfolios and Self Storage portfolios up and down the East Coast. 
    A vertically integrated operation, they have an in-house Property Management firm Peak Performance Property Management that works to add significant value to the portfolios, a Short Sale Firm Short Sale Mitigation that helps agents get homeowners out from their heavy debt, a licensed real estate broker under REAL and licensed educator for continuing education for both agents and attorneys, a host of the “Shut Up And Do It” Real Estate Podcast where he shares stories of other business owners who overcame their own challenges, and a coaching division (REI Ignition and REI Accelerated) with weekly coachings and live “evolution-based” events where the focus is to create 100 Financially Free Families each year, while showing them how to HAVE IT ALL in their finances, in their relationships, and in their LIFE.   
    Having been through his own short sales, a foreclosure, crawling back from $400K in bad debt, losing hundreds of thousands in rehab lessons, and even a brush with the SEC when he aligned with the wrong people on large multifamily syndications… and two divorces which left him homeless and even in the hospital…
    He’s learned what ultimately is the key to success.
    His new mission is to profoundly IMPACT as many people as he can through his business ventures, through his coaching programs, through his charity and service work, and through his efforts at being the best Dad, soulmate, creator, leader, mindset rebuilder and team leader he can be.

    What Is The Longest Real Estate Transaction You've Ever Had? | Pardon The Disruption

    Welcome to Pardon The Disruption hosted by Matthew Potter with special guests Steve Trang, Leon G. Barnes, Stratton Brown and Rafael Cortez. Are you contemplating your longest transaction time or how to overcome delays? We've got you covered. Strap in as we unearth the role of follow-ups, lead managers, and the effects of inflation and inventory on prices and interest rates. We delve into the nitty-gritty of price influencers, from supply and demand, location, and the role of virtual assistants, wholesalers, to fix and flippers in determining property values. We even navigate you through the tough terrain of real estate entrepreneurship - the potential for lawsuits, compliance with rules, and the value of mentorship.

    As we stir the pot, we confront conflicts of interest, disclosure norms, and the unique tendency of real estate professionals to share information. We draw on our experiences with lawsuits and how we prepared for them. Sharing insights on standing out in real estate, we talk about leveraging social media, understanding and avoiding conflicts of interest, and much more. We'll sign off by letting you in on how to bring value through hunting for deals, effective communication, and the persuasive power of coffee meetings. So, come aboard, it's time to shake things up!
