- Great real estate podcast
I love this podcast and it has been a trusted resource for me for years! I love how Erwin, you aren’t afraid to pivot the strategy and keep finding new ways to be successful with real estate. Plus you are the real deal and only promoting valid long-term strategies, none of the pump and dump. We often see in real estate. Thanks for all you’re doing!

Great podcast! Very informative but Irwin, read the room captain America?

Great podcast! The best part is how you talk about the mistakes and failures that professional real estate investors make. No sugar coating here, just nerdy Asian dad jokes, just like friend’s dads in Vancouver. Keep up the great work Mr. Asian Tiger Cat!

Love how objective Erwin can be. Was a long time Canada advocate but has objectively adjusted his views and beliefs based on the ever changing economics.
