In this episode, we sit down with Alex and Ben Jensen, the powerhouse brothers behind REIClosers and Caruth Brothers Real Estate, to talk all things real estate hustle—straight from the trenches. From their early days knocking doors to consistently closing $20K+ wholesale deals, the Jensens have built a standout brand by mixing serious strategy with a whole lot of personality.

We get into how they turned cold calls into community, why adding entertainment to education is their secret sauce, and how social content has helped them connect, inspire, and level up new investors. There’s also some unfiltered fun along the way: Joe jumps in for a mock “door-to-door closer” roleplay, we hear wild tales from the field (including scoring snacks and home-cooked meals mid-deal), and yes—we talk about the real estate deal that nearly became a full-blown sitcom.

Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just here for the laughs, this episode is packed with sharp insights, real stories, and enough charisma to close any room.
