    UNBELIEVABLE PROFITS: Flipping Foreclosures & Hidden Deals! Discover How to Break Into Real Estate!

    Paul Morris and Josh Spitzen interview real estate entrepreneur Daryl Owen, who describes being inspired at 14 to buy investment property, then purchasing his first rental at 19 while working at Papa John’s, struggling to rent it, and selling it two years later for a modest gain that pushed him into getting his real estate license. He shares lessons from buying an expensive personal home before 2008, losing money, and rebuilding by living below his means, then getting hooked on flipping after a first profitable deal and doing hundreds more. Daryl discusses mistakes (including permit issues), choosing between selling “home runs” and holding, using strategies like 1031 exchanges and cost segregation, and his current portfolio (~$10M holdings, ~$4.2K/month net cash flow). He emphasizes sourcing off-market deals via high-volume outreach, deciding quickly, and advising investors to stop waiting for perfection, buy decent deals, and hold long term, with future focus on multifamily value-add and ADUs. *Daryl Owen* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/darylrowen/ Website: https://www.zillow.com/profile/Daryl%20Owen *Josh Spitzen* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/ Website: https://forwardone.com/agents/josh-spitzen/ *Connect with Paul* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorris YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network* Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcasts Money News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 Podcast Welcome 00:00:39 Real Estate Spark 00:01:58 First Rental Lessons 00:04:17 Get In The Game 00:05:28 Ego And Lifestyle Trap 00:06:18 Rebuilding After 2008 00:08:02 First Flip Breakthrough 00:09:48 Scaling Holds And Mistakes 00:11:31 Big Exits And Regrets 00:15:08 Deal Sourcing Playbook 00:17:43 Buy Now Hold Forever 00:19:14 Fourplex Deal Regrets 00:20:31 Renovation And Big Offer 00:22:01 Healthy Profit And 1031 00:23:16 Value Add Cap Rate Math 00:25:15 Rebuilding After Divorce 00:26:35 Multifamily And ADU Strategy 00:29:51 Income To Assets Mindset 00:31:35 Entry Level Rental Moat 00:36:20 Buy Buckets And Flips 00:37:38 Deal Sourcing With Team 00:38:53 Get In The Game Advice 00:39:25 Top Of The List Rules 00:40:57 Long Beach 24 Unit Close 00:41:42 Final Thanks And Wrap Learn more about your ad choices.

    INVESTOR ALERT: Is The Real Estate Market On The Verge Of Recession Or Recovery?

    Paul Mark Morris argues the housing market is not heading for a 2026 crash, pointing to existing home sales rising 3.2% in May to a 4.17M annual pace (highest since December), with gains across most regions and first-time buyers at 35%, while prices keep climbing due to tight supply (about 4.5 months) and improved affordability (index 105.6). He explains mortgage rates remain stable around 6.5% despite expectations the Fed won’t cut in July, and highlights a surprising divergence: despite US-Iran strikes near the Strait of Hormuz, oil and gas prices are falling, easing inflation pressure. He also breaks down the proposed 21st Century Road to Housing Act, which would cap large institutional investors (350+ homes) from buying more single-family homes, potentially reducing competition for small investors, and outlines regional shifts with Sun Belt cooling and Midwest/Northeast strengthening. *Connect with Paul* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorris YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network* Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcasts Money News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 War Headlines Divergence 00:00:48 Show Intro Disclaimers 00:01:42 No 2026 Housing Crash 00:02:20 Sales Demand Rebound 00:04:49 Prices Supply Affordability 00:10:30 Mortgage Rates Reality 00:12:43 Fed Cuts And Mortgages 00:14:43 War Oil Gas Twist 00:18:38 Investor Cap Housing Bill 00:23:54 Hottest Coldest Markets 00:29:03 Luxury Market Signal 00:32:01 Three Moves Next 90 00:35:06 Wrap Up/Disclaimer Learn more about your ad choices.

    MARKET CRISIS: Will the Housing Market Survive the Coming Storm?

    Welcome back to The Paul Morris Podcast, brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this State of the Market episode, I break down why the housing crash so many people are waiting for still is not showing up in the data. Existing home sales just hit a five-month high, prices are still rising year over year, inventory remains far from crash territory, and first-time buyers are back in the market. I also walk through the bigger forces shaping real estate right now: mortgage rates, inflation, gas prices, the Fed, the war’s impact on oil, and why global headlines can quietly affect your monthly payment. But the biggest lesson is that national data only gets you so far. Your real edge as a buyer or investor comes from knowing your local market, your submarket, and even your street better than anyone else. I talk about why waiting for the perfect moment can cost you, why you should underwrite deals at today’s rates instead of betting on a refinance, and how buyers may still have a window to negotiate before the crowd comes back in. If you want to understand what is actually happening in the market without the hype, this episode is for you. *Connect with Paul*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorrisYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris  *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network*Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcastsMoney News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 State of the Market Intro 00:00:47 Crash in 2026 No 00:00:58 Sales Surge Despite Chaos 00:01:53 Inventory and Supply Explained 00:02:56 First Time Buyers Return 00:04:28 Forecasts and Local Reality 00:05:52 Hot and Cold Metro Swings 00:08:19 Micro Markets Matter Most 00:10:35 Is Now a Good Time 00:11:12 Buyer Leverage and Waiting Cost 00:13:10 Local Edge and ADUs 00:15:19 Mortgage Rates in 2026 00:16:12 Oil to Rates Chain 00:18:39 Fed Shift and Warsh 00:21:34 War Peace Gas and Action Plan Learn more about your ad choices.

    URGENT SHIFT: Digital Wealth is Dying and Real Estate Holds the Key!

    Paul Mark Morris explains a major shift away from SaaS as agentic AI becomes accessible to non-programmers, citing his own use of OpenClaw to run task-completing AI agents and the implication that tools like CRMs can be built quickly without traditional development teams. He connects this disruption to falling SaaS valuations, highlighting Salesforce’s drop from $337B to $179B by March 2026 despite rising revenue, and argues markets are pricing in a broken seat-based SaaS model. Morris describes a rotation toward hard assets, prompted by a conversation with nine-figure entrepreneur Mike Lazarow (who sold a company to Salesforce for $785M), and outlines three real estate plays: data centers (via REITs like Equinix and Digital Realty), multifamily amid shrinking supply and a 2026 debt-maturity-driven distress window, and secondary-market residential growth driven by AI-enabled migration.

    Top 3 Cities to Buy Real Estate in 2026

    Welcome back to The Paul Morris Podcast, brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I break down the exact criteria professional investors use to evaluate markets and share the top three U.S. cities that stand out heading into 2026. We’ll walk through the real data—migration trends, affordability, job growth, cap rates, and regulations—and why places like Knoxville, Tulsa, and Savannah are attracting attention from investors. But more importantly, I explain why the city itself is never the whole story. The real opportunity comes from finding the right deal, understanding your local market, and preparing for the wave of distressed properties that could emerge as billions in debt comes due in 2026. If you’ve been wondering where to invest next, this episode will help you think like a professional investor and make smarter decisions in the year ahead. *Connect with Paul* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorris YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network* Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcasts Money News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 Show Premise And Question 00:00:50 Investor Criteria Overview 00:02:13 Top Cities Revealed 00:02:20 How Migration Data Works 00:02:54 Knoxville Market Breakdown 00:04:06 Knoxville Cap Rates Math 00:04:35 Tulsa Starter Market 00:04:56 Tulsa Rental Demand Signal 00:05:28 Savannah Coastal Diversification 00:06:02 Savannah Prices And Rents 00:06:32 Recap The Three Picks 00:06:46 Why LA Still Feels Full 00:08:19 Neighborhoods Beat Averages 00:09:46 LA On The Five Factors 00:13:36 Deal Focus And 2026 Debt Wall Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Real Estate Setup I Haven’t Seen Since 2010

    Welcome back to The Paul Morris Podcast, brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I break down the real state of the market—from global conflict and rising oil prices to interest rates, stocks, and housing—and explain what all of it actually means for investors right now. There’s a lot of noise out there, but I walk you through the data I’m watching and why uncertainty doesn’t always mean disaster. Most importantly, I share why I believe the next 18 to 24 months could present one of the most significant buying windows we’ve seen in years, driven by what’s known as the “debt wall”—a wave of loans coming due that could force many property owners to sell. I also highlight the sectors I’m watching closely, the ones I’m avoiding, and how disciplined investors can position themselves to take advantage of what may be a rare opportunity cycle. *Connect with Paul*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorrisYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network*Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcastsMoney News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 Market State Intro 00:00:48 War Changes Everything 00:01:23 Operation Epic Fury Facts 00:02:12 Strait of Hormuz Shock 00:03:45 Gas Prices Hit Home 00:05:29 Fed Meeting Breakdown 00:07:12 Mortgage Rates Reverse 00:08:21 Stocks After War Start 00:09:24 Winners and Losers 00:09:51 Dollar and Gold Diverge 00:12:35 Real Estate Opportunity 00:13:00 Housing Spring Complicated 00:14:25 The Debt Wall Explained 00:17:28 Sectors to Buy and Avoid 00:19:39 Big Picture Summary Outro Learn more about your ad choices.

    Can You Really Make Money Investing in Art?

    Welcome back to The Paul Morris Podcast, brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I sit down with Clare Baukham to explore a fascinating and often misunderstood investment category: art. Clare shares her unconventional journey, from trading options and working as a financial advisor to launching an art investment platform, and explains how high net worth investors are using art as a diversification strategy alongside traditional assets like stocks and real estate. We talk about how art funds work, how investors can buy shares of major pieces, and why some collectors believe art can provide alpha that is not correlated with the public markets. Clare also breaks down how experts identify emerging artists, how portfolios of artwork are built, and what it takes to spot value in a market driven by culture, scarcity, and expertise. If you have ever wondered whether art can truly function as an investment, and how sophisticated investors approach it, this conversation offers a look inside a world most people never see. *Clare Baukham* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clarebaukham/ Website: https://www.clearwealthgroup.com/ *Connect with Paul*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itspaulmarkmorrisYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@paulmorrispodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/paulmarkmorris *Presented by Entrepreneur Media & Money News Network*Entrepreneur Media: https://www.entrepreneur.com/podcastsMoney News Network: https://www.moneynewsnetwork.com Timestamps 00:00:00 Art Investing Intro 00:00:36 Claire’s Unusual Path 00:01:58 Finance Career Breakthrough 00:03:05 Bel Air Moment Sparks Fund 00:04:43 Billionaire Blueprint PPP 00:05:45 Art Fund vs Real Estate 00:11:10 Portfolio Strategy Alpha 00:17:30 Shares Structure Liquidity 00:34:26 Beating the Market Myth 00:35:24 Real Estate Underwriting Edge 00:36:45 Back of Napkin Returns 00:37:50 Specialized Teams Matter 00:40:31 Art Fund Allocation Strategy 00:42:31 Returns Risk and Exit Plans 00:43:38 Minimums Portfolio and Fees 00:58:44 Fire Round Finale Learn more about your ad choices.
