From Auction.com to $154K Profit: How Collaboration and Creative Finance Built a Six-Figure Deal

In this episode of the Get Creative Podcast, host Justin Tuminowski sits down with Ephrem Fuffa and Mike “Creative Mike” Molusco to reveal how two real estate investors turned a distressed property into a six-figure payday—all by answering a DM and choosing collaboration over competition.

Ephrem, a trucking-business owner turned investor, shares how he found a deal on Auction.com, while Mike explains the creative strategies, attorney relationships, and buyer connections that ultimately saved a homeowner from foreclosure and netted them each $77,000 in profit.

You’ll discover:

• Why answering your DMs could lead to your next big deal
  
  
• How to source free real estate leads without buying expensive lists
  
  
• The power of SubTo community collaboration and joint ventures
  
  
• Tips for navigating auctions, pre-foreclosures, and last-minute closing hurdles
  
  
• How creative finance and empathy can build wealth and relationships
  
  

If you’re a new or seasoned investor looking for proof that taking action and collaborating leads to massive results, this episode will inspire you.
