30 Years. 10,000+ Units. 27 Markets. Still Closing Deals.
I started with a beat up Ford, an empty bank account and a desire to create a better life for myself and my family. Earl Nightingale and Tony Robbins showed me how to change my mind and from there I was able to change the projection of my life.
Knocking on doors that had high grass started a lawn mowing business. Adding a foreclosed house clean out business during that first winter in Boston made sense.
This led to a real estate investing business. Then a real estate brokerage opportunity came my way as well as an investing education company, a coaching business, a software business….
I've written five books on investing in multi family and commercial properties. The first four each made it to number one best seller status upon release.
Then I retired from my teaching company.
That should have been the end of the story. But you don't spend thirty years reading markets and then just stop reading them. And I didn't like what I was seeing.
AI isn't going to knock on your door. It shows up on an earnings call three states away, where a company decides it doesn't need as many analysts, or paralegals, or people in the seats as it used to.
Those are tenants. That's your rent roll.
Most owners won't notice until it's already in their numbers.
I've taught thousands of students over the years. A lot of them bought their first building because of something they heard me say in a room. Some of them are just getting started right now, with everything they've got riding on one deal.
I wasn't going to sit on what I could see coming and say nothing.
So I came out of retirement and wrote The AI Manifesto for Real Estate Investors. For them, and for anybody just starting out. It comes with the tools to actually do the work — a market analyzer scored across 393 markets, a portfolio stress test, an underwriting engine. All free.
That's the only reason the book exists.
Always looking for the next opportunity and always looking for ways to improve myself with the help of the universal field.
My primary interest, aside from my children, include longevity, self improvement, AI and investing.

Four things that compound over time — in your portfolio and in your life.
Multifamily investing — finding deals, running numbers, building wealth one building at a time. It's what I've done for 30 years and what I'll keep doing.
I use AI to analyze 20+ deals a day. The tools that used to cost institutions millions are now $20/month. The playing field has never been more level.
You are the asset. Morning routines, discipline, mental toughness — a sharp investor with a B+ deal beats a mediocre investor with an A+ deal every time.
Cold plunges, sauna, training, nutrition. I want to be closing deals at 80. That requires taking care of the machine right now.
A recovered addict who was living on the street. A woman who came here from Venezuela and was afraid of her own English. A music teacher from an Oklahoma farm. A mother who left a violent marriage and lived in her car with two small children.
All ten of them ended up in apartments. I had them interviewed by someone else, and stayed out of the editing.
