In this episode of Real Estate Junkies: Coast to Coast, Rusty Ham and Rick Abbiati break down the first 3 of 9 must-have traits for successful creative real estate investors. Whether you're brand new to the Wicked Smart community or deep into your deal flow, this episode will challenge your mindset and sharpen your approach.
🔑 Trait #1: Show Up – It sounds simple, but most people fail here. Rusty and Rick explain how consistent presence—in coaching calls, events, and daily action—sets you apart.
🎯 Trait #2: Be Coachable – Attending your weekly coaching sessions is just the start. They talk about what it really means to show up prepared, camera on, and ready to grow.
🎧 Trait #3: Submit Call Critiques – This is where real growth happens. Learn how reviewing your own sales calls (even the messy ones!) can lead to massive breakthroughs and better deals.
You’ll also hear how Rick structured a complex subject-to/lease purchase hybrid deal that was $50k underwater—and still generated over $70k in profit using the 3-Payday System. Plus, they share what really happens at the QLS Live event, why it’s a game-changer for investors, and how being around winners accelerates your journey.
📍Whether you're just starting out or scaling up, this episode gives you real, actionable steps to build a rock-solid foundation in creative real estate.
