In this episode of the Get Creative podcast, host Jordan Whittenburg sits down with John Matland, a former healthcare professional turned real estate investor, to explore how resilience, creativity, and transparency became the foundation of his success. John shares his powerful story of leaving an 18-year healthcare career in New York during the pandemic, running for Congress, and ultimately discovering real estate through Pace Morby’s community. He breaks down a wholesale deal that nearly fell apart—revealing how emotional intelligence, honesty, and unique option contracts helped him close the deal against all odds.
