Arizona's Legislative Shenanigans: Why HB2486 is a Disaster for Distressed Real Estate

Gather 'round, folks, because Arizona just dropped a legislative bombshell that's so pants-on-fire ridiculous, it makes my hair hurt. We're talking about HB2486, a bill so aggressively anti-investor it’s practically a blueprint for how not to help distressed homeowners. And l...

If you missed our massive livestream this past Saturday, don’t worry. We...

Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, investors! Scott Carson here, and if this episode hits a little hard, it's coming from a place of tough love! For too long, I've seen too many of you out there with "limited funds" (a thousand bucks, $18,000, or even zero!) trying to squeeze a square peg into a round hole, hoping a partial note deal will magically appear. Newsflash: a thousand bucks won't even buy you a decent partial, and...

Scott Carson here, finally shaking off that flu (mostly!) and ready to kick off 2026 by tackling a question I get constantly: "How do I raise private capital when I've only got $19?"
