Rethinking Homeownership: Daniel Cook’s Equity Path for Renters

In this episode of The Success in Motion Podcast, host Alex Burhoe sits down with Daniel Cook, CEO of Covest Properties, to explore an innovative approach to homeownership that helps renters transition into equity partners. Daniel breaks down how his unique joint-venture program empowers individuals—especially those who don’t qualify for conventional loans—to build equity, reduce student debt, and secure stable housing.

Drawing from his personal journey, Daniel recounts how a life pivot following a divorce led him to create a scalable model based on his own housing experience. You’ll hear how his perseverance turned a real estate workaround into a mission-driven company that’s helping everyday people become property partners.

Daniel also touches on:

• Why landlords are leaving the market—and how Covest creates a win-win

• How this model can serve minorities and those trapped in rental cycles

• The importance of financial literacy and equity building

• Tips for aspiring real estate investors and homeowners alike
