Welcome to the UnReal Estate podcast. Here you’ll hear experiences from active and passive investors, realtors, brokers, capital raisers, lenders, and other real estate professionals that are completely unreal, but are totally true. Experience is the best teacher so we hope that hearing these unbelievable stories will not only give you a good chuckle, but also help make smarter decisions. There's a lot more to real estate than what you may have studied in the course you took. These experiences will have you going through that YouTube course or flipping through your study guide going "We'll they didn't have this part in the course!".This podcast is hosted by JaQuita and Marcus, who you may know as Shakey and Marcus from YouTube. We’re currently knocking on the door of having a decade of experience. The podcast is an extension of The Smartest Real Estate Investor Meet Up, a group specifically designed to get the most out of every networking opportunity. While we love and have a ton of fun doing what we do, this experience allows us to form partnerships, do meaningful work, and build meaningful relationships.

We have been off the scene for a little while now and we wanted to explain why. Simply put, the previous version didn't feel authentic to who we are and it felt like we were doing what everyone else was doing.. and that just didn't feel right to us. So what did we do? We changed every aspect of the show to fit what we felt was right to us. We wanted to highlight the not so great situations that investors find themselves in during projects and transactions.
