Welcome back to Radical Wealth Plan, hosted by Paul Mark Morris and brought to you by Entrepreneur Media. In this episode, I sit down with Joey Sacavitch to break down how to analyze a real estate deal in under 20 minutes—using a clear, repeatable framework that strips out optimism and forces reality into the numbers. We walk through the three stress tests every deal must survive, why relying on appreciation is a mistake, and how value-add investing protects you when rates shift or markets turn. If you want a practical way to spot bad deals before they cost you real money, this episode gives you the exact lens I use.
