Real Estate Rookie - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Absolutely love the succinct content and breaking things down so that no one assumes you know everything. They really do a phenomenal job with sequential information that is very pertinent to the topics on hand!

This podcast should be required listening for all new investors. I have learned so much from the hosts, their guests and the viewer questions that are submitted.

They keep the content super simple which makes it helpful for new or newish investors trying to learn the basics and just get started. Thank you for all you do!

I needed a place to start getting educated when I decided I wanted to get into real estate investing and I’m so glad I found this show. I have yet to buy my first property, but in the year I’ve been listening I’ve started working on the steps I’ll need to be “bankable.” I’ve nearly paid off all my debt, have squirreled away about $20k and have identified the market I would like to start in. Using their tools I’ve started running numbers to identify deals and am hoping to pull the trigger on my first multi-family in the next 12 months. These two are the real deal and cover SO many important topics. I made the conscious decision last year to start spending my “down time” listening to something educational (instead of true crime) and am so happy I found this show. Tony and Ashley are well versed in real estate while also being super relatable. I can’t wait to start my investing journey!

I started out watching/listening to your YouTube channel while I worked as a home hospice nurse. I’d drive between patients just listening and pondering my next move. Unfortunately, my wife did not share my vision of passive income through real estate. However, when the opportunity came for her to leave her W2 and for me to work 100% remotely from home I pounced on it.

Using the knowledge I gained from your pod cast and You tube channel we kept our home and rented it out for Mid-terms through Airbnb. I chose this strategy to get my wife comfortable with the idea of renting out our property. During that time we rented a small apartment in another state, and the money from the rentals covered the mortgage, expenses of running an Airbnb, and most of our rent.

We have now purchased our second home, and have pivoted from mid term rentals to long term rentals for the comfort of steady income (and reduced stress from potential long vacancies). The info I gathered from listening to your show was critical to enhancing our learning and understanding as we pivoted strategies, avoided pitfalls, and now seek our third home (which will likely be another SFH used for midterm rentals).

Please keep the info flowing so I keep growing!

—-editing my original review to add to it —-
This podcast has become disappointing that there’s basically no rookies interviewed anymore. With show titles including how people made millions and whatnot, it’s unrealistic for most of us to relate to. Now it’s like the original podcast that just went off the deep end.

I listened to the original BP podcast for a few years and love it. I knew I could do real estate but felt like I didn’t know where to start. When I found the Rookie podcast I was so excited. It felt like y’all were more on my level and I’ve enjoyed hearing the stories of rookies getting started. I look forward to every new episode and I hope one day I can be a guest on your show!
