533: 4+ Deals Per Month, Then He Stopped Chasing Small Deals

Episode Summary

Travis Goodwin shares how he went from grinding through 4+ deals a month to focusing only on bigger, fatter deals — and why that shift changed everything for his small market business.

Episode Notes

Travis Goodwin has been investing in West Virginia's small market for eight years as a solopreneur — and for a long time, he was running himself ragged chasing every deal he could find. In this episode, he breaks down the moment he decided to stop chasing volume and start targeting bigger paydays, how he shifted his marketing to better neighborhoods, and why bringing in JV partners actually forced him to level up his deals. He also gets into his unique auction-based disposition strategy, how he handles tough seller situations, and near the end he announces a giveaway for a free year of DealMachine.
