A candid breakdown of the painful mistakes, pivots, and systems that allowed two former engineers to rebuild and scale a 200-deal-a-year real estate business.
David sits down with Cory Miller and Ryan Weimer, two former engineers who now close 200+ real estate deals a year in a single market. They break down the hard lessons they learned scaling too fast, becoming illiquid, surviving a major market correction, and rebuilding the business with better systems, smarter hiring, and a stronger wholesaling model. From growing a 4,000-person buyers list to why outbound still drives a massive share of their revenue, this conversation is a realistic look at what it actually takes to scale without burning the business down.
