🎧 Why Real Estate Investors Fail: Knowledge vs Discipline
Real Estate Investing Morning Show – Hosted by Wayne & Gabby Hillier

Today’s episode dives into one of the most important questions for investors: do more people fail because of a lack of knowledge or a lack of discipline? Wayne and Gabby share real-life stories, lessons from their own portfolio, and why boring, cash-flowing properties are the real key to long-term success.

🧠 What You'll Learn in This Episode

  • Why knowledge outweighs discipline in determining investor success

  • How “boring” rental properties create real wealth and peace of mind

  • The dangers of chasing flashy deals, risky schemes, and untested strategies

  • Why quarterly inspections are essential for managing small repairs before they become costly problems

  • How the 5% Rule™ protects you from the unknowns of real estate (interest rates, vacancies, repairs)

  • Why focusing on cash flow and sustainability beats speculation every time
