• Stop Buying Single-Family Rentals? $5B Developer Reveals the Real Path to Wealth... | Roots Pod #34
    Nov 25 2025

    On this episode of The Roots Podcast, Tyler Lingle and Max Moore sit down with Tadd Miller, co-founder and CEO of Milhaus, a $5B+ real estate firm reshaping urban neighborhoods.

    Tadd breaks down why running a 1-unit deal vs. a 200-unit deal isn’t as different as people think - and what that means if you actually want generational wealth, not just a handful of rentals.

    He shares why he sold off his single-family portfolio, how to think about scale vs. “starter” deals, and when high-income professionals should stop buying more houses and start backing the right operators instead.

  • 50-Year Mortgage EXPOSED: Genius Investor Hack or Total Disaster? | Roots Pod #33
    Nov 18 2025

    Struggling to figure out if a 50-year mortgage is a brilliant affordability hack or a disaster for buyers and the housing market? Wondering why Dave Ramsey is furious while investors are quietly excited?

    In this episode of The Roots Podcast, Indianapolis real estate experts Max Moore and Tyler Lingle break down the real math behind a potential 50-year mortgage—how much it actually changes your payment, what it does to your total interest, who it really helps, and why it could supercharge appreciation while crushing long-term affordability.

    Here’s what we cover:
    • 30-year vs 50-year mortgage payment and interest comparisons
    • How a 50-year loan could change investor cash flow and qualification
    • Why this might boost prices more than it boosts true affordability
    • The “use it as a bridge then refi” strategy (and its risks)
    • What a 50-year mortgage could mean for first-time buyers in the next cycle

    Oct 14 2025

    Struggling to figure out whether new construction duplexes are worth it? Wondering if buying brand-new in Indianapolis actually cash flows—or if you’re better off sticking with the old 100-year “deals”?

    In this episode of The Roots Podcast, real estate experts Max Moore (@maxxmoorre) and Tyler Lingle (@tyler_lingle) break down exactly how new development duplexes perform vs. older properties in Indianapolis, and what every investor should know before buying.

    Whether you’re an out-of-state investor, a first-time house hacker, or a seasoned landlord, this minisode unpacks the real numbers, real headaches, and real rewards of each path.

    Here’s what we cover:
    - The true cost difference between old and new duplexes in Indy.
    - The “three horsemen” of small multifamily: vacancy, maintenance, and capex.
    - House-hackability of new construction: FHA/low-down options and realistic payments.
    - Micro-market insight: how being two streets off can change your ROI.
    - Mid-term vs. long-term rentals on new builds—and which wins right now.

    PLUS: Max and Tyler share real client stories, lessons learned from managing Class C properties, and how to avoid the common “spreadsheet trap” new investors fall into.
