from The DealMachine Real Estate Investing Podcast · host Rob Schimmenti, David Lecko, Ryan Haywood
Rob Schimmenti is flipping houses in New York City — one of the most competitive real estate markets in the country — and closing 15 high-margin deals per year primarily through driving for dollars. In this episode, he breaks down his real numbers, how he generated nearly $3M from 26 deals, why his driving-for-dollars list produces bigger spreads than PPC or high-equity lists, how he calculates ROAS, and the simple postcard tweaks that improved his response rates. If you want to compete in a saturated market without a massive team or complicated funnels, this is a practical look at what’s actually working.
