In this candid conversation with Mike Mannino and Nareman Hamdan, real estate entrepreneur Matthew Evan Teifke shares his extraordinary journey from learning the ropes of real estate under the influence of a hardworking single mom, to becoming one of the most determined multifamily investors in Texas.

Matt reveals the gritty truth about capital raising, what most investors get wrong during market shifts, and why now—not three years ago—is the best time to buy. He opens up about his biggest failure—losing $1 million in the cannabis industry—and how he bounced back stronger with renewed focus and discipline.

You’ll hear Matt’s perspective on:

• The real competition in today’s market (hint: it’s not who you think)

• How to build meaningful broker relationships that actually lead to deals

• The danger of scarcity mindset in real estate

• The importance of persistence, connection, and long-term thinking
