As traditional mortgage lending tightens and rental returns compress, note investing is quietly making a comeback. In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with Eddie Speed, a 45-year veteran of the note investing business, to explain why now may be one of the best cycles in decades to "be the bank."

Eddie breaks down why seller-financed notes are thriving as loan origination volumes collapse, how investors are earning strong interest income without managing tenants, and what separates high-quality notes from risky deals. They also explore why underserved borrowers are driving demand, how underwriting protects investors, and why many investors are shifting from rentals and syndications into notes.

If you're looking for passive income, diversification, and insight into one of real estate's lesser-known asset classes, this episode offers a timely look at why note investing is gaining momentum again in 2026.

In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with Brian Luebben to break down how he built wealth rapidly by combining real estate investing, business buying, and a disciplined cash flow strategy.

Brian shares how he transitioned from a successful corporate sales career to financial freedom in just a few years—starting with house hacking and co-living, then scaling into short-term rentals, business acquisitions, and eventually commercial real estate. He explains why many investors get stuck chasing equity instead of cash flow, and how clarity around income goals can simplify investing decisions.

You'll also hear practical insights on buying cash-flowing businesses, using real estate for tax advantages like cost segregation, and why mindset alone isn't enough without a clear execution plan. If you're a high-income earner or investor trying to decide between real estate, business ownership, or both, this conversation offers a clear framework for building wealth with intention.
