Spend the night with me in a haunted house!

Welcome to part 2 of our Halloween series on haunted houses, apparitions, paranormal experiences, and the roommates who don’t pay rent and can’t be evicted.

In part one (episode #251) you were introduced to a retired reverend who has been experiencing paranormal activity and communicating with the dead since his near-death experience at the age of 5. You also met several of his paranormal research assistants and heard their stories as well.

In this episode we take you on a ghost hunting adventure to a haunted house in the historic district of Bay City Michigan. You'll find out the strange reasons we were brought there in the first place, how the homeowner was almost pushed off a ladder by a ghost, and what happened that night after 2:00 am that is so strange, and so hard to explain, that I can't wait to share it with you.

If you're experiencing paranormal activity in your home, rental property, or place of business, you can contact Reverend Hunter through his publisher at https://thunderbaypressmichigan.com.

In continuation of our celebration of all things Halloween, it's time to bring back this incredible episode we recorded three years ago...

Welcome to our special Halloween edition with hair-raising stories about haunted houses, apparitions, paranormal experiences, and the roommates who don't pay rent, and can't be evicted. We did something similar 3 years ago on episode #94 and it was one of my favorite all-time episodes. Today we go even deeper into paranormal phenomenon and I know you're going to love this incredibly thrilling episode!

I recorded so many great stories that I had to break them up into two episodes: In part one you'll meet a group of paranormal researchers and the retired reverend who has brought them together. In part two you'll get to accompany me to a real-life haunted house in Bay City, Michigan.

I want to warn you that some of these stories will frighten you, and some may even terrify you. If you're easily scared or prone to nightmares, then this is not the episode for you. Aside from the sound effects I've added in, everything you're about to hear is the actual professed experiences of the people involved. These are real people, with real stories of paranormal events that can't be explained, and are even harder to understand.

If you own a home, rental property, or business that is haunted or experiencing paranormal activity, then Reverend Hunter would like to hear from you. You can contact him through his publisher at Thunder Bay Press:

My guest today left behind a promising career as a BMX freestyler to become a real estate investor. He built a portfolio of 50 residential properties prior to the great recession, and then pivoted to building a real estate tech company called Connected Investors that he sold for multigenerational wealth.

Ross Hamilton made his first million by the age of 20 through real estate, and he’s here today to share his story and secrets that he’s learned from other successful people like himself.

Ross will also share how he’s giving back with his new non-profit that is solving the affordable housing crisis. You can find out more about that by going to www.savinghomes.org.

Whether you believe in ghosts or not, sometimes strange and inexplicable things happen that make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Our guests today talk about the creaking doors, the footsteps, the feeling of being watched, and the sensation of seeing an apparition of someone long dead.

With stories from old and new guests: Ann Finkler, Gary Hall, Steve DeKoster, Brandon Krieg, John Potter, and Sue DeJong.

The BRRRR method is one of the most tried and true real estate investing plays. BRRRR stands for Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, and Repeat, and this strategy has helped countless investors build their real estate portfolios and achieve cash flow.

In today's economy, its very difficult to make new ground-up construction projects pencil out. With higher interest rates, labor and material costs, and a decrease in construction financing options, we need to come up with alternate solutions to fund our projects.

Your capital stack refers to all of the different sources of funds that you can bring into your project alongside your debt and equity. The more funding sources you can layer into your capital stack, the better the chance you'll have a viable investment opportunity.

On today's Next Level Thursday episode, developer Josh Canale from Great Lakes Development Group discusses the many sources of incentives that you can access for new construction. We'll talk about TIF and Brownfield, NEZ (neighborhood enterprise zone), federal dollars, and other state and municipal incentives.

We'll also discuss where you can go and who you can talk to in order to find all of the capital available for your project.

You can learn more about Josh Canale through his website:

There’s trouble on the horizon for commercial real estate. Some of that trouble is coming from the office sector, some of it is because of higher insurance costs, and some of it is a result of interest rates more than doubling from this time last year.

What kind of distress are we seeing in the commercial real estate market, and how can we understand it better, so that we can perhaps acquire properties at a discount?

My guest today believes a period of wealth transfer in CRE is upon us, bringing exceptional investment opportunities to both sponsors looking to buy discounted deals, and to individual accredited investors who want to invest in these opportunities.

Dr. Adam Gower is a 30+ year real estate veteran with over $1.5 billion in CRE investment who has taught over 4,800 people how to build wealth, preserve capital, and earn passive income from investing in real estate.

Today Dr. Gower shares his perspective on the economy, the Fed and interest rates, and how different real estate asset classes will respond to this distress.
