Often times, when you use a relationship-oriented approach to buy a property from an off-market Seller with Seller Financing, there’s a good chance that Seller may own more properties they might consider selling you in the future. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Nate and Kylie, clients of The DEALS Workshop, who recently did just that: they bought a second batch of three properties with Seller Financing from their previous Seller! Check out the client case study interview in this episode!
Have you ever heard the expression “Tired Landlord?” This is a common phrase we use to describe what we think are “Motivated Sellers” who own rental properties. These “Tired Landlords” can make excellent Seller candidates for us to buy properties from, but there’s one big risk: we can accidentally make inaccurate assumptions about them and what drives them. In this episode, Jeff breaks down the topic of “Tired Landlords” into three distinctly different sub-classifications of “Tired Landlords,” so that you can be sure you understand exactly which type you’re negotiating with, and can ultimately be far more successful in your negotiations.
Ever wondered if there are different ways—beyond rentals—to generate passive income in real estate, and ultimately achieve financial independence? If so, then this episode is for you! In this episode, Jeff interviews Brent Bowers of The Land Sharks, who explains the land investing business model and explains the beautiful, powerful synergies between the cash flow from land investing and the wealth-building power of building a rental portfolio. You’ll learn how Brent and other land investors buy land (sometimes with Seller Financing) and sell land (often with Seller Financing) to create a cash flow machine!
New Seller Financing real estate investors often ask, “what is your acceptance rate of getting Seller Financing proposals accepted and approved by Sellers?” It’s a good question, and the answer involves a critical strategic point: the acceptance rate is entirely dependent on how the prospective buyer approaches the Seller and handles the negotiation. In this episode, Jeff explains the strategy for “diagnosing before you prescribe,” which drastically increases the overall acceptance rate of Seller Financing proposals.
In this case study interview episode, Jeff sits down with Steven, who recently closed on the purchase of a great off-market duplex with incredible Seller Financing terms! Steven tells the story of how the lead was generated, how the negotiations went and ultimately how the final deal came together.

As real estate investors, we often talk about the differences between the different types of loans we can get to buy our properties. But one thing we don’t often do is look beyond the loans themselves, and consider the lenders of those loans and their psychology. There are huge differences in the psychology between seller financing lenders and other types of traditional or private money lenders. In this episode, Jeff breaks down three key differences in the psychological dynamics of seller financing lenders and other types of lenders, and discusses how to navigate those psychological differences for the best possible borrower outcome.
