📍 In this episode of Real Estate Junkies: Coast to Coast, Rusty Ham and Rick Abbiati reveal the real reason some creative real estate investors struggle to get offers accepted—it’s not the numbers, it’s missing the seller’s needs.
🧠The guys dive deep into the skillset pillar of creative investing and walk through:
- Why step six (sending the offer) is just a formality when done right
- The 7 Steps to a Taken framework (and where people go wrong)
- How to uncover seller motivations before presenting numbers
- The mindset shift needed to collaborate, not negotiate
- Real-life deals where flexibility led to win-win outcomes
You’ll also hear how the Wicked Smart community’s structure (starter, immersion, high six) provides different coaching paths for scaling at your own pace, plus what really happens inside the In the Trenches Bootcamp and QLS Live.
💰 If you're wondering why your offers aren't landing, or you're jumping to send numbers before you’ve built trust, this episode is for you.
🔥 Bonus: Rick shares a real deal story involving a commercial garage, a hoarder-lite house, and a couple prepping for retirement with a truckload of boxes. Spoiler: It’s shaping up to be a 6-figure win—with seller needs met first.
