  • EP 197 The Most Frustrating Things Tenants Do, And What it Teaches You About Real Estate
    Feb 11 2026

    Late rent. "Emergeny" maintenance calls that aren't emergencies. Damage that wasn't there before. Residents who go silent when you need answers and respond instantly when they want something - tenant frustrations are part of real estate.

    In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse breaks down the most common resident behaviors landlords deal with and explains what they actually teach you about operating real estate the right way. The problem usually isn't tenants. It's owners expecting tenenats to think like investors, then getting crushed when reality shows up.

    Dan explains why cash flow is fragile without strong systems, why consistency beats flexibility, why preventativev maintenance and inspections save you money, and why CapEx is never optional. He also covers why scale remove tenant problems - it simply makes them manageable.

    If you want to invest and operate with fewer surprises, stronger undewriting, and better systems, this episode will reset your expectations and sharpen your execution.

  • EP 196 The Biggest Mistakes I Made and What They Taught Me About Real Estate
    Feb 3 2026

    Most people only talk about their wins, but the lessons that actually shape long-term success usually come from mistakes. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse opens up about the biggest mistakes he made throughout his career and what they taught him about progress, alignment, and patience.

    Drawing from his background as a professional snowboarder and his experience as a real estate investor, Dan explains why rushing growth leads to setbacks, why misaligned decisions drain momentum, and why trying to force outcomes almost always backfires. He also shares how ignoring market cycles in real estate can magnify risk and why understanding where you are in the cycle matters more than chasing the last hot deal.

    This episode is a candid look at why mistakes do not disqualify you, but ignoring them does. If you are early in your investing journey or navigating a challenging market, this conversation will help you make better decisions and learn faster.

  • EP 195: Why Most Pro Athletes Go Broke, And Why Professionals Aren't Far Behind
    Jan 27 2026

    Most people assume professional athletes are financially set for life, but the reality is that many go broke within just a few years of peak income. The same pattern plays out with doctors, executives, lawyers, and entrepreneurs — just on a slower timeline.

    In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, former X Games gold medalist and real estate investor Dan Brisse explains why high income does not equal wealth and how lifestyle inflation, fragile cash flow, and poor asset decisions quietly destroy financial security. He shares the difference between earning money and building durable wealth, and why converting income into cash-flowing assets is the real separator.

    Dan also explains why disciplined multifamily real estate investing provides predictable income, inflation protection, and long-term stability. If you're a high earner looking to turn today's success into lasting financial freedom, this episode offers a clear framework to do it right.
