The Best CRE Show!

Aviva is such a good host, always keeping the energy alive and bringing on the best experts in our industry. Tactical advice you can use immediately to get better.

The best episode is with “Dad”! Gotta give that one a listen. Sooo many gems.
Paraphrasing but my favorite was “don’t follow the crowd of low returns”. Don’t chase the 4-5 caps

TheEbayGod1000 ,

So much value being given in this podcast

I am so happy you decided to make a podcast so many golden nuggets here

Just some constructive feedback to help improve the podcast
I would suggest getting someone to help with the audio it is a bit choppy and the editing is very noticeable
