In this episode of Real Talk with REsimpli, hosts Chenay Jordan and Don Carlson sit down with Alex Pardo, self storage owner, investor, and coach. Alex shares how he went from GE’s elite financial management program to building a massive single family wholesaling and flipping business in Miami, then walking away at the peak to pivot into self storage.
Alex breaks down why self storage can be a lower headache business when you buy in the right market, how storage deals are found (direct mail, brokers, wholesalers, and even cold calling from Google Maps), and the key mistakes new storage investors make on their first deals.
We also talk forced appreciation, revenue management, tenant stickiness, and why relationship capital might be the most valuable capital you can build.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
- Why Alex left corporate (and why travel helped him reset his direction)- The simple strategy behind his first real estate deal and what it taught him- What was broken in the single family model, even with big months and big volume- How self storage deal finding works (direct mail, relationships, cold calling, brokers)- The biggest difference between single family and self storage seller motivation- The first upgrades Alex makes after buying a facility (automation, security, online rentals)- Forced appreciation explained, and how small rent bumps can create big value- Real stories from a rough market storage deal (and the lesson: location still wins)- Common beginner mistakes: bad markets, oversupply, and not planning your exit- Why self storage is recession resistant and how month to month leases change pricing- A real talk moment on taxes, business lessons, and slowing down in seasons

In this episode of Real Talk with REsimpli, hosts Chenay Jordan and Don Carlson sit down with Eric McAvoy, real estate investor, digital nomad, and founder of Freedom Pro. Eric breaks down what it actually takes to build a system driven wholesaling operation that can run remotely.
We talk about the biggest myth that hurts beginners (the “$10K in 30 days” expectation), what Eric did wrong early on, and the exact shift that helped him start closing deals consistently. Then we get into the real blueprint for remote investing: hiring the right people, building repeatable processes, and creating a structure that supports freedom without sacrificing results.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why “easy money” wholesaling expectations ruin new investors- How Eric spent over $30K before his first deal and what he changed to finally win- The difference between treating travel like a vacation vs living a real remote schedule- Why hiring and systems matter more than hustle once you want freedom- Eric’s remote operations framework: lead flow, acquisitions, transaction coordination, and dispositions- How Freedom Pro helps students plug in closers and build lean, scalable teams- Reverse wholesaling explained: why getting the buy box first can help beginners win faster- Where AI actually helps (and where it can hurt) for new investors- The “Perfect Day” exercise and how to build your business around the life you want
If you are trying to scale wholesaling, invest long distance, or build a business that gives you real freedom, this one is for you.

Ty breaks down what truly separates good wholesalers from great ones, starting with systems, consistency, and seller conversations that actually lead to signed contracts. We dive deep into wholesaling vs. novations, how to present multiple offers to sellers, and why owning the transaction process (especially with title companies) is critical to getting deals across the finish line.
You’ll also hear Ty’s honest journey from landing his first $3,000 deal to building repeatable processes, hiring help, expanding into recession-proof businesses like roofing, and navigating increasing wholesaling regulations with strategies like double closings, licensing, and creative finance.
