Same investors. Different country.

These are the numbers from our own businesses, as discussed on the show. Switch countries to see what changed when we moved our business south.

What one seller lead cost
Flips in a year
Money raised for one deal
Who owns the house, and do they owe?

Figures are as Mat and Andrew described them on the show. Canadian figures are in CAD, U.S. figures in USD. These are our own results. They are not typical, and they are not a promise or guarantee that you will get similar results. Real estate investing carries real risk, including losing money. Nothing here is investment, tax, legal or immigration advice.

“You’re thinking too much like a Canadian. You gotta think more like a CEO of a business.”
Mat Piche, Episode 2

Your hosts.

Two builders from Ontario. The U.S. business started with a conversation on a beach in Naples, Florida.

Mat Piche

Co-host. Carpenter turned investor.

Mat came from a family of carpenters and finished his apprenticeship straight out of high school. He got approved for his first mortgage at 18, then became a realtor who only worked with investors in Kitchener-Waterloo. He grew that into 50 homes owned with partners and was flipping up to 24 houses a year. Then he hit the ceiling.

  • Homes owned with partners 50
  • Best year flipping in Canada 24 flips
  • Years in Canadian real estate ~12

Andrew Hines

Co-host. Builder, broker, author.

Andrew holds an HBA from Ivey and spent years as a general contractor, building more than 50 homes. He has also worked as a mortgage broker and raised capital. He hosted a real estate podcast with over a million downloads and wrote a #1 Amazon bestseller. Today he runs his U.S. land and house business between Burlington, Ontario and Naples, Florida.

  • Homes built as a general contractor 50+
  • Projects completed 75+
  • Downloads on his first podcast 1M+

Ready to buy your first U.S. deal?

Mat and Andrew coach Canadians who want to invest in U.S. land and houses, with a course, live coaching and a community of investors doing the same thing. You don't have to move to get started.

Our results are our own and are not typical. Coaching is education, not a promise or guarantee of income, profit or success. Your results depend on your effort, capital, market and many factors outside anyone’s control.
