If you have spent even one minute on these forums, you've run into Jay Hinrichs. He's one of our most prolific contributors, currently sitting at Number Five on the all-time posters list.
Jay has been investing forever, and is one of the most-requested guests for the Podcast.
The stars finally aligned, and Josh and Brandon were able to sit down with him and talk about real estate, and everything he's learned in the last 40 years of investing.
If you're new or you've been around awhile, you're going to learn something from Jay.
Just listened to podcast #222 and it was awesome. Thanks to BP for getting him on the show and thanks to Jay for being so open and sharing. I suspect that you could have talked for hours with Jay. And we would love to hear more. Please consider bringing him back again. :-)
I listened to it today. Nice job @Jay Hinrichs...way to represent us Pacific NW folks! I appreciated what you said about loggers. I remember my dad waking up at 2 am to go pick up the others to head up the mountain and yes there was a lot of skill dropping a 100 foot tree, on a steep slope, within inches of where he said it was going to go! He did it for 30 years and had many near death experiences. I also wanted to say thanks for replying to some of my questions as I try to build my real estate empire down here in Eugene! :) Let me know if you're ever down here I'd love to buy you a drink and gain a little bit of that knowledge you've gathered over the years. Also, if there's anything I can help you with down here please let me know.
Listened to it from start to finish at 7am EST. this morning. TGIT(Thank god it's Thursday) after today's podcast I have a new found respect for what Jay Hinrichs has accomplished throughout a REI career spanning decades. Now all I need to find is a multimillionaire with no heirs to jumpstart my REI career. Great podcast as usual @Brandon Turner and Joshua Dorkin
Wow finally. Just listened to it this afternoon as I went to pick up my son from college for Easter break. Jay is full of little pearls of wisdom and I always try to read most of his posts.
Jay sounds like the most chill guy you would ever want to meet, as a newbie I would hope to just catch some of the crumbs that fall off that mans table.
Phenomenal podcast! I was on the podcast bright and early, Thursday's can't come soon enough these days! @Jay Hinrichs brought great experience to the table, something any aspiring real estate investor can't go without. I really enjoyed how Jay talked about not only his highs, but his lows, and how he recovered from them. Big players fight battles just as small players do, it's an ever evoluting game. Great job @Joshua Dorkin and @Brandon Turner bringing in a real star!
Jay Hinrichs gave me advice on a direct mail marketing campaign.. his advice pick up the phone! As luck (and expert advice) would have it, first person I called I found a seller! Thanks again Jay and I really enjoyed your story about the logging company, very creative mindsight.
Thank you for introducing me to @Jay Hinrichs. I'm finding that it's beneficial to listen to every podcast even if you think it might be off topic of your personal interest at first. You never know what you can learn at any time from anyone. Mr. Hinrichs is a real pro.
I had the honor of meeting @Jay Hinrichs in person last year at the Bay Area Summit. He's a great guy and his wife is really nice too. Just great people.
I am methodically working my way through the podcasts starting from number 1 and I am currently sitting at podcast #38. But when I saw the notification that the legend was on this week I knew I had to skip ahead. It didn't disappoint! Thanks so much for the great wisdom. I'm particularly impressed by the fact that you've done so much but you still take the time to hang out with us on these forums. We are all better for it and I am personally grateful. My only wish is that they talked to you more about aviation...I am very fascinated by it! Thanks again @Jay Hinrichs!

Yes...always wondered where his wife is? Too busy making millions to play on the net I guess...
