  • How Kevin Bupp Built a Multi-Million Dollar Mobile Home & Parking Lot Empire
    Oct 30 2025

    On this episode of Deal Nation we're joined by Kevin Bupp, owner of Sunrise Capital Investors and host of the popular Real Estate Investing for Cashflow podcast. Kevin shares his journey from buying his first investment property at 20 with just $7,000 to building a boutique private equity firm specializing in manufactured housing communities and parking facilities.


    Learn how Kevin transitioned from wholesaling to building long-term wealth through cash-flowing assets, why he focuses on just two niches after 20+ years in real estate, and how his firm achieves 12-70% returns for accredited investors. Kevin breaks down the mobile home investment opportunity for newer investors, explains when and how to diversify within your chosen niche, and reveals how a small $695K parking lot now generates $110K annually in net cash flow.


    Whether you're just starting out or looking to scale, Kevin's insights on avoiding shiny object syndrome and building sustainable systems will help you create lasting wealth through real estate."I think focus is the most important part. I think it's very difficult to chase multiple shiny objects. Just pick one thing and then go deep in it for a number of years - that's where you're really going to find success." - Kevin Bupp.

  • Tim Ebie's Guide to Roadtesting New Markets with a Text First Approach
    Oct 16 2025

    On this episode of Deal Nation we're joined by Tim Ebie, owner of Landfast Offers and longtime Launch Control subscriber. Tim shares his remarkable journey from needing extra income for his upcoming wedding to building a nationwide land investing business that generates six figures annually.


    Discover Tim's strategic approach to land acquisition, including his innovative three-tier marketing system that uses text messaging and cold calling to validate markets before investing in direct mail campaigns. Learn how he transitioned from wholesaling houses in Houston to scaling a land business across multiple states, and why he believes in the "50% of a watermelon vs 100% of a grape" philosophy.


    Tim reveals his operational framework using the RISE system, daily KPIs, and team accountability measures that allowed him to travel internationally while his business ran autonomously. He also discusses current market challenges, disposition strategies including owner financing, and his predictions for the land investing space over the next 18-24 months.


    Key topics include mentor partnerships, active vs passive marketing, market validation techniques, and building systems for sustainable growth in real estate investing."There's no such thing as a bad product; there's just bad pricing. If it's a good product and the price is there, somebody will pull the trigger." - Tim Ebie.
