Customer Reviews
Spreading knowledge and making waves
Mayu & Austin are great podcast hosts. They are engaging and knowledgeable. I always look forward to listening to their new episodes.
Great Podcast!
Mayu and Austin are great hosts who bring a lot of expertise and knowledge to the podcast. They bring on really diverse guests with different backgrounds and areas of investing so you learn something totally new and unique each episode. I highly recommend this show! It’s one of my favorites!
Phenomenal hosts
I listened to your most recent episode and love the energy you bring to it.
I totally agree with what Jeremy Ivany has said about buying properties that are close to each other. This would be a big advantage and will lessen a few things such as gasoline especially now that oil prices have skyrocketed, time to travel from one place to another- not to mention money you spend along the way!
You combined the right amount of information and humor in such a way that anyone tuning in can get something they can take away. Keep up the good work!
