In Episode 189 of the Property Prophets Podcast, Travis sits down with Alejandro and his partner Richard to unpack how they left behind traditional wholesaling and built a fast-scaling distressed property acquisitions (DPA) machine in San Antonio.

From buying without title insurance to closing $85K spreads on tax delinquent properties, this episode dives into the systems, lists, team culture, and mindset behind their rapid rise. Alejandro shares how he transitioned from top producer at New Western to founding a high-margin, high-risk business that’s on track for $1.5M+ net profit using strategies like:

1. Partial interest buyouts
2. Targeting tax delinquent absentee owners
3. Skipping title companies to move fast
4. Offering creative JV and balloon deals
5. Building a loyal, high-performing team from scratch

This is real, raw, and relevant for anyone in real estate ready to scale past surface level deals and build something long-term. Whether you're wholesaling, investing, or ready to take on curative title challenges, Alejandro's blueprint is pure gold.

🎧 Listen in and see why Travis calls this one of the most tactical episodes yet.
