Finding Deals Before They Hit the Market
Ben Allgeyer shares his journey from leaving the medical path to becoming a full-time real estate investor, building multiple businesses, and completing hundreds of deals.
He explains how his early strategy of helping homeowners remodel before listing became obsolete as the market shifted — forcing him to pivot into flipping at scale. At one point, his team was handling 20–25 flips at a time, but the operational challenges and market changes led to another pivot into wholesaling and novations.
One of the most impactful lessons comes from a failed partnership that resulted in a $250,000 legal battle, highlighting the importance of proper agreements and structure in business.
Ben also breaks down how he built deal flow through door knocking foreclosure leads, turning it into a consistent pipeline generating multiple deals per month.
The episode dives deep into novations, explaining how they bridge the gap between wholesale and retail, allowing investors to capture more value while helping sellers avoid the traditional listing headaches.
Throughout the conversation, one theme stands out:
