What if you could combine BRRRR + creative finance and turn one ugly single-family home into three cash-flowing rental units—without needing the seller to accept a traditional discount? In this episode of the Get Creative Podcast, host Keola Keala interviews Justin Tuminowski (aka @realestatejustin) — Sub2 leader, Owners Club member, and New England micro-multifamily operator — as he breaks down a real deal he calls the “Creative BRRRR Burrito.” Justin shares how a simple direct mail relationship (plus consistent follow-up and a $5 Dunkin’ gift card at the perfect time) led to a motivated seller giving him first right of refusal on a highly visible, distressed property in Southern New Hampshire.

In this episode of the Get Creative Podcast, host Justin Tuminowski sits down with Casey Roloff (Yuma, Arizona) — Army veteran, former Border Patrol agent, and Subto/Owners Club member — to break down a real-world seller financing deal on an 11-unit apartment complex that started with a cold door knock and turned into a wealth-building home run.

What happens when a luxury flip goes over budget, over timeline, and still makes six figures? In this episode of the Get Creative Podcast, host Jordan Whittenburg sits down with real estate investor Adam Colburn to break down a real-world creative finance luxury flip in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Adam walks through how he used a Subto + novation-style structure to acquire a dated home in a prestigious neighborhood, renovate it with minimal capital out of pocket, and still walk away with nearly $100,000 in profit — despite unexpected rehab overruns and a 14-month timeline.

California architect and longtime creative finance investor Robert Larivee joins host Keola Keala to share how he turned a Zillow listing that said “No Sub2” into a fully negotiated creative finance deal using skill, patience, and the power of his SubTo team. With decades of experience in architecture, construction, and seller-financed deals—even before joining Pace Morby’s community—Robert explains why teamwork, relationship-building, and perseverance dramatically shorten the path from lead to closing. He reveals how joining SubTo accelerated his deal flow, how his team handles acquisitions, closings, and dispo, and why community support is essential for anyone wanting to succeed in creative real estate. Packed with wisdom from a lifetime of creative problem-solving, this episode is a blueprint for new and seasoned investors alike. ➡️ Meet Pace on the Creative Nation Tour: https://bit.ly/GetCreativeNationTour ➡️ Download the Free SubTo A-Z e-book: https://subto.sjv.io/qzd0Vb  ➡️ Get the CRM that will take you further: https://www.gohighlevel.com/pace ➡️ Use Creative Listing for FREE to buy and sell creatively: https://bit.ly/CreativeListing ➡️ Join the SubTo Community: https://subto.sjv.io/RG6EDb ➡️ Become a Top Tier Transaction Coordinator: https://toptiertc.pxf.io/yqmoxW ➡️ Discover the Gator Method: https://gator.sjv.io/6yYWBG ➡️ Get to the SquadUp Summit Conference: https://bit.ly/GetToSquadUpSummit COMMUNITY MEMBERS! ➡️ Get Featured on the Get Creative Podcast: https://bit.ly/GetCreativeGuestForm Refer a Friend to SubTo: refer.nre.ai/subto Refer a Friend to TTTC: refer.nre.ai/tttc Refer a Friend to Gator: refer.nre.ai/gator PLUG IN & SUBSCRIBE Creative Real Estate Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/creativefinancewithpacemorby Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pacemorby/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PaceMorby TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pacemorby  X: https://x.com/PaceJordanMorby The Pace Morby Show: https://www.youtube.com/@thepacemorbyshow

Join host Keola Keala as he sits down with Macarena Garcia—CDC epidemiologist, professor, single mom, and powerhouse real estate investor known as the “PadSplit Queen”—who scaled from one traditional rental to 10 high-cash-flow co-living properties in just 18 months while generating over $45K/month in revenue. Macarena shares how she discovered co-living by accident, leveraged SubTo creative finance to secure deals like an 8-bedroom lakefront PadSplit with only a $13K entry fee, and built systems that allow her to thrive while working a full-time career.
