Kevin breaks down the mobile home investment opportunity for newer investors, explains when and how to diversify within your chosen niche, and reveals how a small $695K parking lot now generates $110K annually in net cash flow.
Whether you're just starting out or looking to scale, Kevin's insights on avoiding shiny object syndrome and building sustainable systems will help you create lasting wealth through real estate."I think focus is the most important part. I think it's very difficult to chase multiple shiny objects. Just pick one thing and then go deep in it for a number of years - that's where you're really going to find success." - Kevin Bupp.

On this episode of Deal Nation we're joined by Bobby Triplett, Senior Vice President of Renovations at OfferPad, who reveals how wholesalers can diversify into fix-and-flips, and scale their equity portfolios by leveraging institutional-grade renovation services. Bobby shares his REI journey and how he ended up managing thousands of property renovations annually across 26 markets in 16 states. Discover how Bobby's team delivers renovations at a rate of one day per $1,000 spent, helping investors eliminate the common pain points of finding reliable contractors, managing timelines, and controlling costs. Learn about OfferPad's strategic partnerships with wholesalers, hard money lenders, and private investors who want to take down deals without building their own renovation teams. Bobby explains how his 40 project managers, 30 W2 employees, and 1,500 subcontractors nationwide can help you expand into new markets without boots on the ground. From timeline management to vendor relationships, this episode covers the systems that allow investors to focus on acquisitions while maximizing ROI through efficient renovations.
"I'm a huge believer in strategic partnerships because then I don't have to be the smartest guy in the room. I've just got to be the smartest at what I'm doing." - Bobby Triplett

On this episode of Deal Nation we're joined by Rafael Cortez, organizational psychologist and successful real estate entrepreneur running multiple businesses including a nationwide wholesaling operation, fix-and-flip business, and real estate brokerage. Rafael shares his journey from firefighter to full-time investor, revealing how he transitioned from working 60+ hour weeks to closing 10-15 deals monthly while investing just 4-6 hours per week in his distressed property business. Learn his six-stage framework for systematizing any real estate operation, why he advocates against outsourcing too early, and how proper delegation transforms your business from a job into a wealth-building machine. Whether you're struggling with burnout or ready to scale, Rafael's insights on building effective teams and reclaiming your time are invaluable for any real estate entrepreneur.
"If you're looking down at operations, it's hard to look up at the possibilities. As the CEO, creating vision and identifying opportunity becomes your responsibility." - Rafael Cortez
