On this week’s episode of Best Ever Show, Ash and Amanda interview Ian Noble. Ian shares how fourteen years of running a family dry cleaning business led to burnout, a brutal COVID revenue collapse, and the realization that passion and systems matter more than social media hype about “boring businesses.” He explains his pivot to real estate as both an LP and fund-to-funds syndicator, why he favors low-risk private lending and mobile home parks, and how he structures deals so investors get equal or better terms than going direct. Ian and the hosts dig into operator due diligence, red flags like wild equity multiples, the realities of depreciation benefits, and why walking every property and backing only trusted teams is non-negotiable.
