À propos de cet audio

In this episode of A Canadian Investing in the U.S., Glen Sutherland sits down with Dave Seymour to unpack his incredible journey from blue-collar firefighter to nationally recognized real estate investor and educator. Dave shares how financial illiteracy, predatory lending, and the 2008 financial crisis nearly cost him everything—and how a pivotal decision to invest in education and take massive action changed the trajectory of his life. From learning real estate fundamentals during the crash to completing his first deal and eventually leaving the fire department, Dave’s story is a raw and honest look at what’s possible when preparation meets opportunity. The conversation dives deep into the importance of execution, relationships, and coaching in real estate investing. Dave explains why real estate is fundamentally “5th-grade math,” why mentorship is worth every dollar, and how buying access to other people’s mistakes can save investors hundreds of thousands—or more. He also breaks down his current focus on larger multifamily opportunities (25+ units), market selection, underwriting discipline, and capital alignment, offering valuable insight for investors ready to move beyond single-family deals.
