Storage Wins
Alex Pardo
What if you could finally escape the grind, quit your job, and build real wealth?
Not by flipping more houses or managing tenants, but by owning a self-storage business that creates real freedom. Imagine waking up knowing you're in control: your business is running, your income is steady, and your time is finally yours. That's what Storage Wins is all about.
If you're tired of trading dollars for hours, being burnt out from chasing deals that create more work, and are ready for a step-by-step system to buy your first self-storage facility, even if you don't have tons of time, money, or years of experience...this podcast is for you.
Most real estate investors and employees feel stuck. Maybe you're grinding away at a nine-to-five that drains you or hustling in a single-family real estate business that leaves you stressed and overwhelmed. You dream of passive income and cash flow, but every solution you try just adds more chaos to your life. The truth is, you don't need to manage dozens of properties, fix broken toilets, or put up with nightmare tenants. There is a smarter, more scalable way.
The problem isn't that self-storage is out of reach. Most people are overwhelmed by conflicting advice, all the moving pieces, and the myth that you need a ton of money or years of experience to get started. You end up overthinking, burning out, or worst of all, doing nothing and watching your dreams slip away. Other people are making it work and you wonder, why not me? What am I missing?
The answer is clarity, a proven plan, and a supportive community.
Imagine this: You have a clear roadmap to buy your first self-storage facility in the next six to twelve months, even if you've never done a real estate deal before. You know what to look for, how to find off-market deals, raise capital, and structure acquisitions that build wealth. You're part of a group that values simplicity, automation, and systems that make business more profitable. You are making progress, building cash flow, and finally owning your time.
Hosted by Alex Pardo, real estate investor, coach, and former host of The Flip Empire Show, Storage Wins is your weekly guide to building a self-storage business that serves your life. Each episode brings you practical insights from Alex and top experts, as well as real stories from students and everyday investors. We go deep on what works: choosing the right market, negotiating deals, automating operations, avoiding rookie mistakes, and scaling up for real financial freedom.
This show is about reclaiming your time and building a business that works for you. If you're sick of the rat race, exhausted by the endless hustle, and are ready to create freedom, wealth, and legacy, this is your show. You don't have to sacrifice your family, faith, or sanity to succeed. You just need a plan, one good deal, and the belief that freedom is closer than you think.

Brian Trippe is back with a second guest appearance on the Flip Empire Show! Brian has made excellent strides in his career and he all credits it down to networking and being a giver. On today's episode, Brian shares his tips on how to network the right way, how to provide enormous value and ways you can become a better people connector too!

How can someone position themselves as an authority if they're shy or don't know anybody? By the way, you're going to mess up. Just embrace it. The only way you're going to get better is by doing it. If you want to do more volume, then you have to start a group or even a podcast. Brian would love to give you a free book! Just DM him on Instagram (see below)!

EP253: Here's a Simple Tip You Can Implement Quickly To Get More "Juice" From Your Leads
As the year winds down, Alex takes this time to reflect on his business and see the progress it has made. Lately, he's implemented a weekly lead audit that has given him a deeper insight as to where his team is lacking and some opportunities that might have been missed. Find out more in this week's episode! Key Takeaways: The year is winding down, remember to take a break and take some time to reflect! Free up your mind so you can think clearly and dream for the future. Alex has been doing a weekly lead audit to see how 'good' the leads are and how his team has been processing them. The most expensive leads to generate are the leads you don't have. If you're consistent with your lead review, you're going to find opportunities right under your nose! This year, Alex and his team overqualified people too aggressively. TIP: Loosen up your front-end qualifying process. If you can get in front of the seller, you will be better off than just talking to them on the phone. Mentioned in This Episode: Feel free to connect with Alex about doing a JV!

EP252: Mike Jake Reveals How To Become Recession-Proof Through Rental Properties and Creative Financing
Mike Jake has been in real estate since 2003 and he typically does around 70-90 deals per year. Mike has been able to grow his rental portfolio to slightly over 100 doors with the use of creative financing and an eye for asset growth. On today's show, Mike shares the strategies he's used to achieve the lifestyle he's always wanted, how you can build a rental portfolio without having a large stack of cash sitting around, and so much more! Key Takeaways: How do you become recession-proof? Mike does about 70-90 deals per year. However, he's also focusing on other strategies to put him in the best position possible — no matter what state the market is in. Who is Mike and how did he get started? Mike shares what kind of deals he does and how he builds his rental portfolio. What does Mike's marketing process look like? How does Mike reduce his tax liabilities and fully leverage the IRS? Mike right now has just a little over 100 rental properties with a total asset value of $20 million. A big portion of Mike's portfolio is from creative financing. What was a typical house Mike bought during the recession? Mike likes investing in assets that go up! He'll forgo cash flow if he knows the property has growth potential. You have to think long-term when it comes to real estate. Mike recommends a couple of the ways you can build a rental portfolio. Mike sat down and determined what he wanted his ideal lifestyle to look like and he planned it out! Remember, sometimes, you'll just end up buying the wrong house and you won't know until years later. The longer you do this, the more experience you'll get, and the more chances you'll have to get it right. Where does Mike see the market going in the next few years? Position yourself so you don't have to say 'yes' if you don't want to. There's a lot of peace of mind that comes with knowing you'll be okay when the market turns. Just start! Get out there and buy your first rental property! It's important to pick and choose all the good things your mentors have to offer, but be aware we're all human and everyone has flaws, too. It's not that complicated: Buy a good asset, manage it well, and keep living! You have to have thick skin and realize you are going to make bad decisions, but the good news is, you'll learn from them!

EP251: How To Close More Deals When Sellers Reject Your All Cash Offer
Alex discusses how to close on those tough deals that all investors face. What do you do when the seller doesn't like your cash offer? There are other ways to structure deals and to help your homeowners than just a straight up "as is" cash offer. Alex dives into it in detail on this episode! Key Takeaways: Do your sellers trust you? Need help with deal structuring? Check out episode 92. You can't help every seller that walks through your door. If you can't meet a seller eye-to-eye, maybe offering seller financing can help you get over that hump. Sometimes your cash offer just isn't the solution. What else can you do? Ask your seller more in-depth questions to understand the reasons why they're selling. It's important to go into an appointment with a little bit of an open mind. You want to craft a customized solution for your seller. It's not always a one-size-fits-all approach. Always ask yourself, "How can I help these people?" Get your sellers to do 'reverse math.' The tools are out there! Leverage them! Mentioned in This Episode: Feel free to connect with Alex about doing a JV!

EP250: The Sales Process That Uncovers Your Prospects Pain and Motivation — Explained!
Alex is a little under the weather and is losing his voice, so please bear with him during this big milestone 250th episode! In this solo episode, Alex explains the sales process to help uncover pain and motivation from your sellers. If there is no pain, then it's very hard to find a solution for your customers! Key Takeaways: Alex can't believe he's 250 episodes in! Alex loves John Martinez's sales training course and has taken his team through it. It's so important to focus on the seller and build rapport with them. Remember, without pain, there is no sale! Ask the seller why they decided to reach out to you. Sometimes the solution you bring to the table isn't something the seller will need right now. What are some examples of impact questions? You then want to ask picture-perfect questions. Alex shares some examples! Are you using the sales process consciously or are you just winging it? You don't want to beat your sellers into 'submission.' That's a big 'no-no' and there's a better way to approach it.

EP249: The 4 Phases of the Real Estate Cycle (and How To Position Yourself To Take Advantage)
Alex shares why he is building up his cash reserves and getting smarter with his money. As everyone knows, real estate has cycles and the last thing you want to do is be thrown in with the sharks when the market turns. Key Takeaways: Where are we in the real estate cycle right now? Don't try to time the market. Get smart with your cash and build up reserves, so that you don't get hurt when the market turns. The market will correct itself, it's just a matter of 'when.' Always build relationships with lenders and potential JV partners. Know your market and be careful with the types of rehabs you're getting into. Make sure you're paying yourself first. Amazon keeps 3% of their market cap in cash reserves. NVR Inc. keeps about 20% of their worth in cash. If you have a risky business model, you should have more cash reserves on hand.

EP248: How To Increase Your Sales Conversions (and Get The Most Out of Your Appointments with Sellers) - Part 2
Alex is back with another solo episode to wrap up Part 2 of how you can make a long-lasting impression and close that deal with your sellers. Building rapport during the face-to-face appointment is critical. People do business with people they know, like, and trust! So, spend some time building that trust. Key Takeaways: When you first walk into the seller's house, don't talk about the house! Sellers aren't going to work with you if they don't feel comfortable. Try to connect with the seller on a personal level. Get the seller to say in their own words how much it would cost to fix the house to retail condition. How much does the seller think their property is worth? You always want to get your seller to say a number first, and then 'price anchor' them. People are more likely to believe something they came up with as opposed to your 'influencing' them or selling them on that belief/idea. Be aware of how you price anchor people. Do you always jump up in even numbers? Give them more odd (smaller) increments. Please consider leaving a review on iTunes.

Alex recently got back from a trip to Disneyworld with his family. Wow! What an experience.

The customer experience is so important and it's one of the main reasons why your customers turn into raving fans. Key Takeaways: How can you create raving fans?

EP246: How To Increase Your Sales Conversions (and Get The Most Out of Your Appointments with Sellers) - Part 1
Alex does a two-part solo episode about making a long-lasting impression with your sellers while you or your acquisition team are on appointments. If you don't know how your team is treating them on the phone or even at appointments, you're going in blind and not bringing the best service you can to your customers. Alex offers tips on how to better improve your process and get that deal. Key Takeaways: How do you get the most out of your appointments with sellers? Have you noticed that most people are really awful listeners? How are you treating people on the phone? Are you engaged? Are you listening? If your state allows it, get your calls recorded for internal training purposes. When you listen to a recording, you really pick up on some of the subtleties that you missed in the beginning. Might sound obvious, but prepare, prepare, prepare before your appointment! It's never one-size-fits-all with sellers. Have you ever shaken someone's hand only for it to get crushed by Godzilla? The more info you have, the better equipped you are to offer customized solutions for them. Focus on them first! Sellers always receive a text and email confirmation with info about the company once an appointment has been set. Bring a printed package with you so that sellers have something physical to hold onto and to see physically. Stay tuned for Part 2!

EP245: Before Getting into a Deal, Calculate the Headache Factor
Alex was presented with a really good money-making opportunity, but he had to stop himself before he could take it on. Why? Because money isn't everything and it shouldn't distract you from your bigger picture, from your vision. Alex shares examples of why you need to slow down, practice patience, and really — THINK — things through before jumping on the money. Key Takeaways: Do you make decisions based on how much money you're going to make? Alex shares an example of choosing your opportunities based on the amount of money you think it might generate. Today, Alex filters his opportunities through a different decision-making process. What's the headache factor going to look like? Are you going in a million different directions? Alex found himself almost making a bad decision based on seeing a new 'opportunity' come up on his horizon. Bad idea! We want the microwave result, but what we really need is patience. There are some cases where you need to go slow. Jogging or running isn't the ideal pace to handle certain things. Mentioned in This Episode: Feel free to connect with Alex about doing a JV!
