In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I share powerful insights from a panel I recently joined at the IMN conference, where we tackled one of the hottest topics in the industry right now: AI in real estate. From hedge fund managers to mom-and-pop investors, everyone’s asking the same thing—will AI take over our space? My answer: no, but it will play a massive role. I break down the areas where AI is helping (like underwriting and tenant screening), and the places where it simply can’t replace human judgment—like negotiation, construction, and title. I also share a personal story about buying my home that underscores why human interaction will always matter. If you're a real estate pro, this episode is your wake-up call to use AI as a tool—not a replacement.   --   Looking to hire smarter?ZipRecruiter uses powerful technology to match you with top talent fast — no more sifting through a stack of weak resumes.4 out of 5 employers who post on ZipRecruiter get a quality candidate within the first day.

Grab your free 7-day trial inside Benmont’s sales community at www.ramprei.com — get live coaching, real frameworks, and a system that actually works. -- In this powerful episode of The Science of Flipping, I’m joined by sales powerhouse and self-proclaimed “data nerd” Benmont Locker. We tackle a mindset shift most investors desperately need: sales is senior to marketing. If you’re torching cash on leads but have no clear sales system, you’re doomed to chaos and burnout. Ben breaks down how his team has closed thousands of deals by obsessing over a consistent, repeatable sales process — one that could plug into any industry. We dig into: Why scripts alone won’t save you — you need a framework that builds trust, uncovers real emotion, and closes deals with integrity. The 5-step sales sequence every investor needs: set expectations, build trust, qualify/disqualify, present options, and close strong. How to use pattern interrupts and “creating space” — virtually and in person — to get the deal done. Ben’s unique take on giving sellers the “Disney Experience” — delivering unmatched value so price becomes secondary. Why too many people hide behind busy work instead of sharpening their sales sword. How introverts, data geeks, and self-doubters can transform into confident closers by leaning on proven systems and community accountability. We also get real about what’s stopping you — self-sabotage, victim mindset, and waiting for the perfect plan. If you’ve ever felt stuck or “not good enough,” Ben’s story and framework will light a fire under you. -- About Benmont: Benmont Locker is a real estate investor, sales strategist, and founder of RampREI, a coaching community and sales training platform for real estate investors. With 1,000s of transactions under his belt, Ben teaches investors how to master trust-based sales systems that deliver consistent, profitable deals — without the chaos.

In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I sit down with my good friend and business partner Adam Williams — a true real estate powerhouse who’s scaled from flipping hundreds of single-family homes to syndicating over 11,000 apartment units. Adam shares how a cockroach-filled childhood turned him off real estate — until a chance encounter pushed him to jump all in. We break down why single-family rentals rarely build true wealth, why apartments are the ultimate cash-flow machine, and how syndications help everyday investors scale big without the headaches. Adam also drops powerful mindset lessons on clarity, purpose, and how to survive the “mud” of entrepreneurship to reach the gold. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn active income into generational wealth, why you should think bigger than buying a rental house, and how to make your money work while you sleep — this conversation is a blueprint you can’t afford to miss. -- About Adam: Adam Williams is a seasoned real estate investor, entrepreneur, and private equity partner. Starting in 2004 flipping single-family homes, Adam quickly scaled up to multifamily, co-founding Elevest Capital and building a portfolio of over 11,000 apartment units nationwide. Through his firm Elevest Capital, Adam helps high-income earners and business owners grow generational wealth through apartment syndications — all while educating investors on how to turn active income into passive income streams for life.
