The Real Estate Ride
Welcome to our podcast — where vision meets action. 🎙️
We’re Jay and Annie Adkins — real estate investors, coaches, and entrepreneurs who believe success starts with a clear vision for your life, business, and family. On our show, we dive deep into real stories of flipping houses, building wealth through real estate, and balancing it all with family and faith.
With over two decades of experience, we’ve built multiple businesses — from real estate investing to a full-service construction company — and now we’re here to help you do the same. Whether you’re looking to start your first investment, scale your portfolio, or create a life you don’t need a vacation from, this is your place to learn, grow, and get inspired.
Tune in, take notes, and start designing your future — one property, one project, and one decision at a time. 🏡💡
