  • How to Make Real Estate Money Without Buying Property
    Jan 7 2026

    Want to invest in real estate without swinging a hammer or begging a bank?

    Matt and Lou sit down with Alex Martyn of SPG Capital to talk about how smart investors are bypassing Wall Street and making their money work in real estate through private lending.

    This episode is about the real engine behind flips and rentals: capital. Alex breaks down how his fund operates, why he pays investors monthly, and what makes a good borrower (hint: it's not newbies watching HGTV).

    🍸 What you'll hear in this episode:

    • How SPG Capital funds real estate deals without bank red tape

    • What makes private lending a killer strategy for passive investors

    • Why speed, trust, and monthly payments matter more than ever

    • How self-directed IRAs are unlocking access to real estate for everyday investors

    • Why 50‑year mortgages might not be as scary as they sound

    💡 Notable Takeaway:

    It's just gonna come down to the same thing. People who own assets will get farther ahead.

    👤 About our Guest:

    Alex Martyn is the founder of SPG Capital, a private real estate fund based in Philly. He funds residential loans for fix‑and‑flip and value-add investors, while offering monthly payouts to private capital partners. A former flipper turned fund manager, he's all about speed, trust, and returns.

    🎧 Why Listen:

    If you're a business owner, investor, or side hustler thinking about real estate, this episode gives you the playbook on new mortgage strategies, alternative funding hacks, and why Florida might be your next move.
