Today’s dealmaker is Pranav, a data scientist with a PhD in applied physics and material science, working in corporate America. He is a really smart guy who is leaving the corporate world to go into the real estate world, and he'll explain why.

Welcome to our new show, Investor Creator's Deals!
I'm Brad Smotherman, a real estate investor based out of Nashville, Tennessee. I've recently moved to Seaside, Florida, because this business has allowed me and my family financial and time freedom, so that we can home school and take care of our children.
I got into the educating people on real estate because I didn't like what I saw in the industry - constant upsell and often outdated information. I wanted to teach in the way that I enjoyed, and to teach processes that can be replicated. So over the past three years, we've had many people going from startup through struggle to success in just six months.
We're going to be bringing you two to three deals every week from different people, from all across the country, all walks of life, different races, color, creeds, different everything.
These episodes are going to be about a single deal with one seller.
Where did that lead come from?
What did the negotiation look like?
What did that deal structure look like?
What was the profit?
What challenges did you have?
What did you learn from them?
What would you potentially do differently?
You'll get action steps that you can implement into your business, and you're going to see that success in real estate investing is possible for anyone.
So hit that subscribe button, and let's get into DEALS!
