Ep 148 - Investing in Tokenized Real Estate | with Eric Martel
Tokens are the new hot thing in investing…and potentially the future of investing. You hear about new coins being started constantly, and many of them are just fads that have no value
behind them. Securitized tokens, however, are a different story.
Eric Martel joins Adam Schroeder and Zach Lemaster to discuss his new securitized token, MartelInvest. Eric explains how it works, what it’s backed by (surprise, it’s real estate!), how people can invest, and what entry and exit plans investors can have with the investment.
Eric also shares his unique story of how he got started in investing, what mindset investors need to have, and how his journey has led him to where he is today.

Ep 144 - What Is Rent Ready & Where's the Inventory?
There’s a difference between rent ready and retail ready, and knowing it will go a long way to making sure that you’re buying a rental property that’s going to make sense. Going overboard on finishes and materials will eat into your profits and could very well turn it into a deal that gets negative cash flow. Remember, there’s a difference between the two.
