In this episode of The How-To Show, Gino Barbaro—co-founder of Jake and Gino—dives deep into one of the most misunderstood tools in real estate investing: The Retrade. Whether you're a multifamily investor or just starting out, understanding how to ethically and strategically renegotiate deals can be the difference between massive ROI and massive regret.
Gino shares personal stories, market insights, and real-life retrade examples—from faulty breakers to low appraisals—and explains how to approach sellers and brokers the right way. He also references negotiation master Chris Voss, giving you actionable techniques to use today.
