This week’s episode features guest Mike Cavaggioni, the man behind the Average Joe Finances podcast.

 

Our conversation kicks off with Mike's recount of his rocky start in real estate: buying his first property in 2007, a year before the crippling market crash. He explains how he sold his property at a loss, exploring both determination and how to turn a situation around to succeed despite obstacles.

 

Just when he thought he'd seen it all, Mike found himself in a familiar scenario. He bought his second property in early 2020, only a month before the COVID-19 outbreak. Tune in to hear how he navigated these stormy waters, proving his resilience once more.

 

Lastly, Mike shares his perspective on a tool for real estate investors—the power of hosting your own podcast. Discover how having a platform can give you an edge in the industry.

 

It's a packed episode with plenty of insights to take your real estate investment game to the next level.
