Summary

It is no secret: The housing market has been engineered to keep you out. Institutions are buying entire neighborhoods while the average saver is told to "wait for rates to drop." That is a dead end. Today, we are deploying a specific Counter-Measure. We are bypassing the banks, skipping the mortgage, and buying shares of cash-flowing rental properties for as little as $100.

I'm sitting down with Nick Roman from Real Bricks to expose how fractional ownership is no longer a "crypto gimmick"—it is SEC-regulated, deed-backed Liquidity that puts you on the same playing field as the hedge funds.

But we aren't just playing offense. We are playing Active Defense. Later in this episode, I'm showing you the "Yellowstone Loophole"—how to use bees, "ugly house" photos, and specific legal exemptions to slash your property tax bill. The county treats you like a tenant on your own land. It's time to cut their rent.

0:00.0	When I was at Rostock and we were selling entire homes to people, you know, online, sight unseen, I kept telling myself each year I was there that, okay, next year is the year I'm going to go out, I'm going to buy a rental property for income. Never happened. You know, moved down to San Diego with my wife, purchased our home down here. You know, as soon as I started at Real Bricks, I purchased shares in all the homes we have, right? Because you can get started for a lot less. I don't have to worry about dealing with the tenants or repairs or the
0:25.7	property management team or anything like that. And it's just a much easier way to diversify into
0:29.8	real estate. This is the epic real estate podcast, Contrarian takes on money, housing, and policy
0:36.8	without the guru nonsense. Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go. Let's go. All right, our guest today is the co-founder and COO of Real Bricks, a fractional real estate investing platform making it possible for anyone to own a share of rental properties. From what I hear, with as little as a hundred bucks. So please help me welcome to the show, Mr. Nick Roman. Nick, welcome to the Epic Real Estate Investing Show. Hey, Matt. Thanks for having me. Yeah, I wish I was the co-founder and COO. I'm the head of investor relations here at Real Bricks. So it's my job to correspond with anyone who signs out on our platform. Chat GPT's got you at a much higher level than that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I've been here about a year now and it's been great. I work with our investors who signed up on the platform. So happy to be on with you and I appreciate you taking the time. Okay. Yeah, no, super. My pleasure.
1:29.8	So I guess congratulations for an order.
1:31.1	We'll see if chat got this, right?
1:38.5	But real big bricks just delivered almost 9% annualized returns to the investors over the past year before I was acting your own projections.
1:39.0	Is that accurate?
1:40.2	Yeah.
1:44.8	So with the properties we have in Omaha, Nebraska, which is really our core market,
1:50.0	we are on pace to land right around an 8% return on the year. If you visit our platform,
1:55.0	we have them posted at 6, 6.5%. So we are very happy with the returns. Those homes have been performing very well, and our investors have been really happy so far.
1:58.0	Got it. Omaha, Nebraska. What do you like about that market?
2:01.8	Yeah, so I live in California. And before I started here, I didn't know a whole lot about Omaha.
2:07.5	And I've been pleasantly surprised, right? I mean, it's a growing market in the Midwest, low crime,
2:13.0	low unemployment, low cost of living. And it hasn't really seemed to get that institutional stronghold
2:19.6	on it yet. There haven't been big institutions coming in and swooping up a bunch of inventory
2:24.1	to drive up prices. So it's been going really well there. And then we just recently launched
2:28.7	a property in Texas as well, just north of Dallas. I think I lost you there for a second.
2:33.4	Got it. Sweet.
2:35.1	Explain to me how, so when you investing in fractional real estate, are you buying a fraction
2:41.9	of a property or are you buying a fraction of a fund? How does that work?
