So I searched podcasts with the title of the book #TheWealthyGardner by an Amazing author and person #JohnSoforic!! First time listening to Joe Fairless and his Best Ever CRE show podcast and great track record in the real estate world and longest running podcast, KUDOS!! I put the Episode on with High expectations being it was their first book review ever and they chose The Wealthy Gardner by John Soforic. WOW!! This is going to be an AWESOME REVIEW, so I thought! Man was I sorely disappointed in Joe and Paul. I so wanted to stop myself from listening to this podcast episode after Paul the moderator made this comment “there were a lot of things that stood out to me as stuff that we all probably already know, things relating to habits, things relating to work ethic and things like that.” HUGE RED FLAG and they haven’t even started discussing the book. I listened to the full episode thinking maybe Joe this amazing real estate Guru will have different perspective on the book. After listening to the episode in Full all I learned I learned and felt is both their GIGANTIC EGOS AND HEADS were better than this book and John. If you listen and read the full transcript, the title book they are supposed to be reviewing: The Wealthy Gardner is only mentioned 3 times and John Soforic, I’m sorry Dr. John Soforic is only mentioned once before they even start “reviewing” the book. Throughout the episode Joe only uses “The Author” and “The book” during his review but throws out every other book title and other Authors names out like candy!! Doesn’t even have the simple curiosity to use the title and John’s name even once himself!! As for the “REVEW” itself even a bigger disappointment. All I can say is for 3 pages of notes Joe says he took for this book he must have wrote in big letters. Of the 38 minutes or so of this Episode Joe and Paul maybe discussed 5-6 minutes of the actual book they said they were going to review for their First ever BEST EVER BOOK REVIEW!! As I said above WORST EVER BOOK Review because these two literally quoted if I had to guess a handful of “quotes” they call them from this Amazing 400+ page book written by John Soforic!! I am Huge believer in First Impressions and Integrity. Again I came into this episode with great intentions and thinking with Joe’s background and success in real estate like Joe Soforic had in The Wealthy Gardner he would have some Great insight on this book!! NOPE!!! Joe doesn’t even have the decency to say John’s name once or even say the title of the book. If I had to guess Joe and Paul have no clue the Lessons on Prosperity Between Father and Son and what it meant to John as he wrote this book for his own Son Mike!! That goes back to Paul’s comment above. They both dismissed this book before they even started the episode. I feel Bad for that one person who they had on their LinkedIn chat that may have actually read and Enjoyed the book and were hoping like I was to actually hear an amazing book review! Joe mentions a dozen other book titles and Authors by name like those matter more than the actual book he made the episode for in the first place!! For my First impression and Joe, I would not recommend this Podcast to a person that has a conscience and actually cares about people! John Soforic wrote a Beautiful book for his Son and people that care about people. Read the rest of the 1-2 star reviews and you will get great sense of the person Joe really is and how he really only really cares about himself and his Ego! I will follow John’s word everyday over Joe’s! Thank you for reading!!

This show is in my queue every day. Love the content! One thing that I find detrimental is that some of the interviewers constantly interrupt the guests. Aside from that, please keep up the great shows!

The content on this prodcasf is great, they cover many different sections of CRE. Also a fan of the multiple hosts. The only negative is their production, the volume from the guest and host are often very far apart. Also background thunder sound for the lighting round is obnoxiously loud and completely unnecessary

Honestly the content is awesome. Very informative and covers all levels of experience. The issue that makes the show hard to endure is the “new” host. I haven’t listened in a couple years, but compared to Joe (or really anyone else who hosts a podcast), what a terrible switch. This guy is just devoid of the personality traits that create a good conversation. From his overly monotone speech to being downright rude - bordering on condescending - to his guests if they divert even slightly from the mapped out conversation. Again; awesome content but this host is the worst.

Amazing how they have so many new episodes per week! I love the host and all of his guests. Great work!

A majority of the episodes are an hour long sales pitch for whatever the guest is hawking. 101 advice on actionable real estate information is a best case scenario. Next to know educational value if you already understand the basics of RE investing.

I’ve been listening to this show religiously for nearly a year now. So much value and knowledge being shared.

These guys always delivery quality content that is easy to listen to. I really appreciate their laidback approach.

Excellent pod cast always learning something new.

Very informative podcast. Format is easy to follow and interesting topics.

This is one of my top real estate podcasts I consistently listen to for years! Joe and the team provide so much value and is a huge proponent to learning more about the ins and outs of real estate without the fluff. The interviews are engaging, and I always learn something new every time I tune in.

This review is long overdue. I can’t thank Joe and his team enough to provide the Bestever real estate advices. I learned so much in the last couple of years by just listening to Joe’s podcast. That’s how I got started with real estate investing. And this is the right way to invest. Educate yourself first. There isn’t any real estate topics that you can’t find in his podcast. Thank you! -Seyla

It is the love of money that is the root of all evil… not money.

JF3065: 7 Steps to Achieving Stellar Investor Returns in a Subpar Economy ft. Sandhya Seshadri. Love to hear Sandhya's podcast as it is always full of values and authenticity. Thanks a lot Sandhya for sharing your wisdom.

Joe is a great podcast host who asks the tough questions. I enjoyed being challenged and stretching my mind throughout our discussion. Great show!!

Joe is such a dynamic and engaging host. I have learned so much from this show and the amazing guests he brings on. It’s like a daily dose of REI education in my feed each day!

You guys are amazing! Love the podcast. Ash please keep the “beyond multifamily” series coming. Travis I love the actively passive show. Slocomb, Travis, Ash please continue the round table talks. I’ve been listening, learning and sharing. God bless you guys.

Really great podcast I’ve learned so much and I keep learning every single episode which is great because they have an episode every single day

This show is chalk full of insights and provides top notch investing education from professionals from all sides of the industry. One of my go-to shows for learning from the best of the best in real estate. A must listen.

Slocum provides super specific ideas for repositioning a new apartment and communication with legacy tenants. These tips make sense for a duplex of a 100 unit

This podcast brings in loads of experts to share thier knowledge and this episode a showcase of expertise being shared that provides great value to the listener. This one really helps with the residential multifamily by going over good niches, pros and cons of property managment, and the difficulty getting started. Highly recommend you listen.

It was so clear that Anthony’s consistent approach to growing his business the right way is a key to his success. No overselling. No hype. I can see why Invictus doesn’t have issues finding deals from brokers who would trust that deals will close and that investors would believe in them. Anthony made their growth process sound simple but it is clear they do the right things the right way.

Just listened to the podcast with Ash and Anthony - really insightful to hear a perspective that focused on keeping things in house

I believe this is the best podcast for learning about apartment syndications.

There's a reason this is one of the top RE podcasts - Joe is a seasoned pro, and brings his experience and insights front and center in this podcast every day. He has a variety of different guests, answers questions you didn't even know you had, and offers a guide to just where to invest in RE. Highly recommend!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years. I appreciate all the value from a variety of investors and industry experts. Slocomb is an excellent host.

I’ve listening to your podcast on my way to work lately and really enjoyed one of the most recent episodes. I particularly appreciated the Tim Bratz episode where time testing was covered. This reminded me of my own experience at my current job, where I had to wait for the ideal moment to make things work and invest more effort, time, and tactics in order to achieve the objectives that I truly want.It's really cool to hear from people who do such incredible work and bring on such relatable people from whom I can learn a lot.

One of my new fav shows!

Sarah May and Slocomb Reed did a super job in this episode. I invest in Cincy myself and agree with Slocomb. Great insight on Denver from Sarah. Thanks to you both!!!!! -Ray D

Joe had me on as a guest for his podcast, and I have to say it was a blast! He treats his guests with respect and does his research ahead of time. This allows him to get the best interview with his guest and the most value for his listeners. I highly recommend the Best Ever podcast to all who wish to make better decisions!

I listened to this show for years, every single day. It changed my life and elevated my real estate business and mindset. There is so much valuable content on this channel, I highly recommend it! One day my goal is to be on here as a contributor and give back!

So so, not enthralled

Guys?!?!? You used to be a 5 star podcast but here we are WEEKS into Coronavirus craziness. The entire REI world has changed and here you are pushing out previously recorded junk which doesn’t matter anymore. THIS IS WHEN I NEED DAILY HELP. And you guys are sending out old junk that doesn’t matter anymore. The world has changed - wake up!!!

I can not count the number of times I had a question or needed to know what to do in a particular situation, and so I combed through the Best Ever Advice podcast library and found an episode talking about exactly what I was dealing with. No matter what level you are, beginners to 40+year investing pros, you will always learn something knew.

Any google search would have shown that whole life insurance is considered one of the biggest scams in the financial advisor industry. Had Joe done his research, he would have asked the simple question, “Why wouldn’t someone purchase a simple term life insurance policy and just invest the extra in premium separately?” The answer is, you can never come out of ahead of this. The reason? The fees. Another good question to ask: “how much does the advisor make on each whole life policy, and how much do they make annually on each policy?” Even more concerning - why is a sales pitch for whole life insurance on a real estate podcast? This wasn’t even a debate on the pros and cons. I understand pushing out five times the number of guests is more difficult than other podcasts. But it is showing that quality is suffering at the expense of quantity.

Joe and featured colleagues are legit- equipped with knowledge and experience. Very interesting topics. I love that it is daily. I’ve been following for a while and I’ve read his syndication book as soon as it came out. Absolutely amazing thank you for your hard work and commitment to spreading the wealth!

If you’re a real estate investor, work in real estate or have any desire to learn what it’s like to cultivate the skills needed to become a successful member of the REI community - this is a must-listen podcast for you! Joe does an incredible job leading conversations that cover a huge breadth of topics related to the ins and out of real estate investing (what to do - and what not to do!). Each conversation is empowering, easy to dive into and levels you up no matter where you are in your journey. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!

This podcast help me understand various concept of real estate investing. Real people with Real experience. Been a best ever listener and best ever guest. Highly recommend this podcast for newbie and seasoned investor.

Presented with the chance to invest along side Joe, I started listening to this podcast by Joe and Theo. My investing experience is less extensive than theirs, but what I heard them teaching matched up with the successful business practices that I’ve encountered. Additionally, they set a fantastic example for the type of partner that I’d strive to be—valuable and determined. It is eye opening to see the vast amount of effort and expertise that they put into every part of their business.

Joe has done an outstanding work with the podcast over the years. I constantly gain valuable information and ideas through this podcast. His content and style are original. He puts out thought provoking material and asks incisive questions. I have no doubt I will continue listening to this podcast for insight and inspiration for a long time.
