Real estate education on the go

Ever wish you could get a college degree in real estate investing?

Luckily for you, there’s something even better: free, ongoing education from some of the most successful real estate investors alive today, delivered right to your phone as a free real estate podcast. (And if your ears get tired, you can always feast your eyes on the best books on real estate investing!)

There are plenty of ways to invest in real estate, from buying rental properties to REITs to commercial real estate to flipping houses for a profit and beyond. Each niche has its pros and cons, but all have one thing in common: You’ll only be as successful as you are knowledgeable.

As a professional real estate investor myself, I’ve listened to a number of podcasts and found some of the best real estate podcasts in the business. All of them are free, and each will leave you wiser for having given it 30-60 minutes of your time.

  1. BiggerPockets

The goliath among real estate podcasts, BiggerPockets’ podcast is a staple for any real estate investor’s ongoing education.

Hosts Joshua Dorkin and Brandon Turner have been investing in real estate for over 30 years collectively and bring on guests who cover every conceivable niche in the business. They keep a fun, light tone, even while digging into complex topics.

From buy-and-hold to commercial real estate to Airbnb to flipping houses, BiggerPockets’ real estate investing podcast has covered it and will cover it again from another angle.

If there’s a one-size-fits-all real estate investing podcast out there that covers it all, this is it.

How to listen: Visit the BiggerPockets podcast page for their weekly podcast or listen on iTunes, Stitcher, or your favorite podcast app.

  1. The Best Ever Show with Joe Fairless

Do you start getting the shakes if you don’t get a daily dose of real estate investing advice?

Joe Fairless has you covered.

On Joe’s daily "Best Ever" real estate podcast, he interviews A-list real estate rockstars who bring a steady stream of fresh perspectives. Joe has a gift for bringing energy to his podcast episodes despite the show’s unrelenting frequency.

One advantage of doing so many shows? Joe keeps the show diverse, with guests from a wide range of investing niches, from apartment buildings and real estate syndication to traditional flipping houses for a living.

  1. RETipster

Seth Williams hosts this excellent podcast with a low-key, laid-back, friendly demeanor that takes the pressure out of real estate investing.

From beginner level (e.g. how to get started flipping houses) to advanced tips and techniques like real estate investing website optimization, Seth has you covered.

Still, there’s one area of expertise where Seth particularly shines: land investing. Seth is arguably the country’s leading authority on land investing, which requires far less capital than traditional real estate investing.

It’s a hamster wheel that host Paula Pant wants to help you avoid.

Paula focuses heavily on lifestyle design: planning out your perfect life so you can realize it. After all, what’s the point of making money? Is it to replace your Subaru with a BMW? Or is it to give you the flexibility to create the life of your dreams?

This is not to say that Paula doesn’t cover the nuts and bolts of investing on her real estate podcast. There’s plenty of tactical talk about topics like finding deals on investment properties and how to buy a foreclosed home on Paula’s Afford Anything podcast.

Where Matt particularly shines is keeping a balance between the bigger picture – achieving financial independence through real estate – and the down-and-dirty details of investing. From niche topics like creating a house-flipping business plan to detailed tax strategies, Matt doesn’t shy away from the granular in his real estate investing podcast.

One other nifty fact? The Epic Real Estate Podcast ranges in length from quick-sprint episodes only four minutes long to marathon 90-minute episodes.
