Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I’m joined by Jason Morrison, Executive Vice President at Rocket Companies — one of the biggest mortgage lenders in the U.S. Jason didn’t come from a traditional path. He started out selling TVs at Best Buy and worked his way up to leading at the highest levels of the mortgage industry by the age of 40. But what really makes this conversation powerful is what he reveals about the home buying process that most people get completely wrong.We break down the biggest myths around down payments, interest rates, credit scores, and choosing a lender. Jason shares the advice he gives his own clients — the kind of honest, behind-the-scenes insights most buyers never hear. Whether you’re buying your first home, your next investment property, or advising clients as a real estate pro, this episode will change the way you think about mortgages.Timestamps00:00:00 Introduction & Radical Wealth Plan Overview00:00:20 Jason Morrison00:01:18 Home Buying Fundamentals & Credit Preparation00:04:18 Mortgage Rate & Loan Options Considerations00:05:00 Relationship vs Transactional Loan Officers00:10:00 Jason's Personal Journey & Early Life00:15:00 Cleveland Expansion & Local Impact00:19:53 Advocacy, Leadership, and Personal Growth00:25:00 Passion in Sales & Consistent Effort00:30:00 Sales Coaching & Daily Milestones00:35:00 Emotion vs Calculation in Home Buying00:40:00 Building Your Personal Brand & Integrity00:44:35 Personal Insights & Life Lessons00:50:00 Overcoming Educational Barriers & Growth00:52:01 Conclusion & Final Thoughts Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I sit down with an incredible guest, real estate developer and investor Chris Senegal. Chris is someone who has completely transformed his career and his community, and today, he’s sharing exactly how he did it.Chris started out in the corporate world as an engineer, working on massive industrial projects, but he quickly realized that the path to true financial freedom wasn’t in climbing the corporate ladder—it was in real estate. What’s really remarkable about Chris’s journey is how he went from flipping single-family homes to buying entire blocks and revitalizing neighborhoods in Houston. He takes us through the details of his creative financing strategies, how he built partnerships with the right people, and how he leveraged opportunities near billion-dollar developments.One of the most fascinating parts of this conversation is how Chris successfully raised over a million dollars through crowdfunding, allowing everyday people in his community to invest in their own neighborhoods. He explains how he structured the deal, what he learned from the process, and why he believes that real estate investing doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game.Chris also shares insights on large-scale development, including his latest project: a 340-unit mixed-income development in partnership with the Houston Housing Authority. He walks us through the complexities of working with institutions, structuring deals, and scaling up from small investments to major developments.This episode is packed with valuable lessons for anyone looking to build wealth through real estate, whether you’re just getting started or looking to take your investing to the next level. Chris’s approach is strategic, innovative, and, most importantly, impactful—not just for his own financial success, but for the communities he’s investing in.Stick around to the end, where I put Chris through a rapid-fire Q&A covering everything from the biggest real estate myths to his best advice for new investors.

Doug has built an incredible career spanning nearly four decades, and his approach to both real estate sales and investing offers valuable lessons for anyone looking to build wealth through real estate.We talk about how Doug got his start at just 20 years old, how he built his business through relentless prospecting, and how he learned to thrive by being both methodical and bold. Doug shares how early experiences—like his own parents buying a house through another agent—shaped his competitive mindset, and how that drive still fuels him today.What I love most about this conversation is Doug’s no-nonsense approach to success. Whether it’s tracking every call and door knock on a scorecard, creating systems to scale his house flips, or knowing exactly when to walk away from a bad deal, Doug’s clarity and focus is inspiring. He’s also mastered the art of balancing his professional life with personal passions like mountain biking, all while holding firm to his belief that every day should either make you money or bring you joy.If you want real, practical advice from someone who has lived it, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In today’s episode, I sit down with Remoun Said, a real estate investor and agent who has mastered the ability to create value in real estate. From transforming single-family homes into multi-unit cash-flowing properties to leveraging California’s ADU laws, his approach is both strategic and highly effective.What makes Remoun’s story so compelling is that he didn’t come from wealth—he built his success through determination, smart decision-making, and a relentless work ethic. Having immigrated to the U.S. as a child, he saw firsthand the sacrifices his father made for a better future, and that experience shaped the way he approaches business and investing today. Now, he’s built a portfolio by focusing on value-add opportunities, staying local, and using zoning regulations to his advantage.We go into detail on some of the biggest challenges and opportunities in real estate investing. Remoun shares how his first deal went horribly wrong, leading to foreclosure, and what he learned from that experience that allowed him to come back stronger. He explains his Buy Box strategy and why having clear investment criteria helps avoid costly mistakes. We also take a close look at how he turns small properties into highly profitable rental units through ADUs and zoning adjustments. If you’ve ever wondered how to legally and efficiently maximize the potential of a property, this part of the conversation will be invaluable.One of the most important topics we cover is why Remoun prefers long-term wealth-building over house flipping. He breaks down why flipping can feel like two steps forward and one step back, and how owning income-generating properties provides much greater financial stability. We also discuss the realities of rent control, how it affects property values, and what investors can do to work within those regulations while still making smart investment decisions. Throughout our discussion, he emphasizes the importance of treating real estate as a business, building strong relationships with local experts, and making informed decisions based on long-term potential rather than short-term gains.Toward the end of the episode, we shift gears with a rapid-fire Q&A where Remoun shares his biggest regrets, his goals for the future, and even what would make his Sundays perfect. It’s a great way to round out a conversation that is full of practical insights, real-world examples, and expert strategies.If you’re looking to invest in real estate but aren’t sure where to begin, or if you’re an experienced investor looking for new ways to improve your approach, this episode offers valuable guidance.
