What the Neighbors Know (and You Should Too)

Every property tells a story, and the neighbors usually know the ending before you do. Whether you’re buying, flipping, or managing rentals, learning how to talk to neighbors can give you insights no inspection report ever will.

Start with Respect, Not Curiosity

Don’t open with “What’s wrong with this house?” Start with something like, “Hi, I’m thinking about buying the place next door—how do you like the neighborhood?” That signals respect and genuine interest, not gossip. People will often volunteer valuable details once they feel comfortable.

Ask Open, Neutral Questions

Try: “How long have you lived here?” or “What’s the neighborhood been like over the years?” You’ll learn about property turnover, tenant behavior, problem areas, or even hidden perks like new schools or planned retail nearby. If there’s been trouble with previous owners or code issues, you’ll hear about it in seconds.

Listen for Clues, Not Complaints

Sometimes neighbors exaggerate or vent. Don’t take every comment as fact—but do notice patterns. If three people mention drainage problems or break-ins, that’s useful data. If they all talk about how quiet it is, that’s a selling point to highlight later.

Leave a Good Impression

Even if you don’t buy, how you treat neighbors can affect your reputation. A friendly introduction today could mean an easier sale, a tip about another property, or even a future private lender. Real estate is a people business, and good neighbors make great allies.

If you’re the kind of person who always wonders, “What’s the angle here?” when you see an ad — you’re my kind of people. I feel ya.

So here’s the straight deal: this process is wildly profitable, but it’s not $50,000-complicated. If you pay more than three grand to learn how to flip houses, you’re probably getting ripped off. Show of hands? Anyone?

Ok. $1,497 is a fair price. But how about $297 for a limited time? Or — if you pay attention when you click — you’ll even find a $50 option.

Q: What’s in it for me?

A: $297 — and our undying friendship (and maybe your testimonial video).

That’s it. No “next-level” upsells, no secret coaching pitch. When you see the quality of this course, you’ll probably want to check out the others. They range from pretty danged good to freakin’ awesome — my students’ words, not mine.

So go ahead — try it out, and you tell me.
