Unlocking Legacy, Sobriety & 1,000 Deals: The Real Estate Life of Steve Valentine
Guest: Steve Valentine | Phoenix, AZ | @SteveDValentine
💥 From flipping 1,000 homes to flipping his life, Steve Valentine drops jaw-dropping wisdom on real estate, relationships, rehab, and real ROI.
In this powerful and wildly transparent episode, Shane and Duane sit down with Arizona real estate titan Steve Valentine, who’s spent over 26 years in the game — and learned how to play it his way.
Steve’s story is part real estate brilliance, part personal reckoning — and all heart. From losing his father (a top-producing agent who died owning zero property) to flipping the script on his own life and going all in on sobriety, Steve gets brutally honest about what it takes to build a legacy that lasts — in business and in life.
🔑 What You’ll Learn:
💡 How Steve and his wife flipped & acquired 1,000+ properties — and kept 120+
🧠 Why “buying boxes” and solving bigger problems leads to bigger profits
🤯 How Steve turned a hoarder house with a $280K IRS lien into a $225K win-win with seller financing
🔥 How his wife’s general contracting biz now leads $500K+ renos — and how they work side by side without losing their minds
🚫 Why “no more pets” (aka bad deals/clients) is Steve’s 2024 motto
🛠️ What The Garage is and how it’s reshaping real estate community and investment in Phoenix
🧘♂️ Why October 2, 2023 changed his life — and what rehab taught him that real estate never could
👏 How self-awareness became Steve’s greatest success
🙏 His mission to help other agents battle addiction, burnout, and the pressure to be perfect
