25 Years in Mortgages, What AI Will Never Replace | Ted Edginton
Ted Edginton has spent 25 years doing mortgages the hard way. In person, on the phone, at the closing table.He started this business straight out of Michigan State, driving around town with paper checks for his clients' loans. One blew right out his car window on Hall Road. He turned around, got it reprinted, and still made it to the closing.That's basically been his whole career since. He built a team with 60 years of combined experience between them, and every client still gets treated like the actual person they are, not a number moving down a pipeline. He calls it working the bookends. First time buyers figuring out how to afford housing on one side. Retirees trying to downsize without blowing their budget on the other. Both need someone willing to sit down and ask what's really going on.Here's what we got into.→ Why AI can quote you a rate but it can't tell you what your family actually needs→ The real math behind why home prices keep climbing even when nobody feels ready→ The occupancy fraud he's watching lenders push on people right now→ Why getting treated like a commodity is costing people the house they actually wantClients keep telling Ted the same thing after their first conversation with him. Nobody else brought this up. That's not luck. That's 25 years of listening before he ever starts talking.Thanks to Ted for making the time to sit down and talk shop. If you're anywhere near Troy or Woodward, go find him at Rate. If you're not, email TedE@rate.com and tell him we sent you.*Chapters*00:00 Intro01:00 Cold Open: A TRT Story and Life's Priorities04:48 Community, Belonging, and the Power of an Invite08:09 Serving Clients in Ways AI Can't11:21 Ditching the Commodity Mindset15:17 The Steak N Shake Job That Built a Work Ethic22:03 Real Flexes, Real Character29:20 The Real Math Behind Buying a Home Today36:23 Diligence, Trust, and Spotting Fraud47:12 Compassion, AI as a Tool, and Closing Thoughts*Connect with Ted*https://www.linkedin.com/in/tededginton/https://www.instagram.com/ted_edge_mortgage/https://www.facebook.com/ted.edgintonBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.

The Mistake That Keeps You Out Of The Room With Powerful People | EO Detroit Founder John Anderson
John Anderson started the EO Detroit chapter in a conference room in 1996 with two other guys and no money. He's now a business coach, an author, and one of the most connected people in Michigan.He used to deliver mortgages by hand as a mailroom clerk making $30,000 a year. One man in that office, the chairman of the board, pulled him aside and told him he was going to do great things. That single sentence rerouted the rest of his life.From there he built relationships with people like Vern Harnish, David Brandon, Bill Ford Jr, and Peter Diamandis, using one rule he's never broken. He wrote a book called Replace Retirement. And now he's chasing a new goal that sounds impossible on paper: making Michigan one of the top five states to live and work in.What we covered: → How he built EO Detroit from three members into a 30 year run → The rule he's followed for 30 years before ever asking a powerful person for anything → Why he wrote a book about disrupting the entire idea of retirement → The Everest story that made him walk away from his own company → His new moonshot to make Michigan a top five state in the countryYou are one call away from a relationship that changes everything. John has spent 30 years proving that's not a saying, it's just true.Thank you to John for driving in from Grand Rapids and giving us an hour of stories most people never get to hear. And a specific thank you to Tim Bryson at Sandler for making this connection happen in the first place.*Chapters*00:00 Intro 01:00 How EO Detroit got started 06:05 The mentor who changed everything: Mr. Cooper 12:05 Landing Bill Ford Jr. and the power of service 19:06 Why he calls himself a people connector, not a coach 21:15 Peter Diamandis, moonshots, and the 2% rule 28:11 Attention, distraction, and the bee analogy 34:41 Making Michigan a top five state to live and work 41:26 The Everest story that changed his career 48:34 How to dream bigger without the fear*Connect with John Anderson*https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnanderson12/https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ceo-advantage/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.

This Investor Owns 250 Doors… Here's the ONE He'd Buy Again | Peter Skaggs
Peter Skaggs runs a mortgage company and a 250 door real estate portfolio, and he built both at the same time without quitting his day job.He bought his first investment property in 2007. Then 2008 happened. By 2011 the house had lost half its value. He held on anyway. For fourteen years. He also spent years chasing apartment complexes, land, and short term rentals before realizing he was collecting real estate, not building a portfolio.He sold that crashed property in 2021 for almost double what he paid. That experience is where his framework came from. Buying power, staying power, growing power. Now he teaches busy professionals how to build a 10 to 20 property portfolio that runs quietly in the background while they do everything else.What we covered: → Why he chose single family homes over apartments, storage units, and short term rentals → What actually happened when he held a crashed property for fourteen years → The real numbers behind reaching financial freedom with 10 to 20 rental properties → Why Airbnbs make sense as a lifestyle asset, not a starting point → The framework he built after making almost every mistake in the bookThe people who get rich slowly in real estate are the ones nobody writes books about. Peter has spent 20 years proving that boring wins.Thanks for making the trip and handing over 20 years of lessons in under an hour.*Connect with Peter Skaggs*https://www.linkedin.com/in/petertskaggs/https://www.instagram.com/petertskaggs/https://www.facebook.com/petertskaggs/*Chapters*00:00 Intro01:25 Peter's 250 door portfolio and 20 years in real estate02:32 Collecting real estate versus building a real portfolio05:23 Where beginners should start: single family, Airbnb, or apartments10:14 The real numbers behind financing your first rental14:21 The freedom flywheel: how 10 to 20 properties add up to financial freedom23:07 Buying right before the 2008 crash and holding for 14 years27:23 The expensive mistakes that led to his framework31:54 Real estate funds and syndications versus owning it yourself38:56 Airbnbs as a lifestyle asset and the free deal analyzer toolThank You for Watching The Dillon England Show!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.

“Saving My Assassin" A Story On A Close Call with Death, and The Miracle of How She Survived | Virginia Prodan
Virgina Prodan grew up in Communist Romania, watching her parents whisper behind closed doors about a government that took a little more from them every year. She decided as a kid she was going to become a lawyer and find the truth.She did. Top ten percent of her class, using a forgotten law book she found in a library to get Christian prisoners out of jail. Then the dictator took notice. He sent a man to her office with a gun, told her she wouldn't listen, and said he was there to end that.She shared the gospel with him instead. He put the gun down and walked out. Years later, Reagan helped get her family out of Romania. She landed in America with two daughters, one more on the way, and no English, and rebuilt her life from nothing.What we covered: → Growing up under a dictator who declared himself God → Finding a forgotten law book that got prisoners out of jail → The man sent to kill her, and what happened when he pulled the gun → Reagan, the State Department, and a case that reached the United Nations → Starting over in America with three kids and no EnglishYou don't need everything figured out to obey. You need the nerve to walk through whatever door is actually in front of you.Thank you to Virginia for sitting down and telling this story start to finish. It's not an easy one to tell, and she gave us all of it.*Chapters*00:00 Intro01:49 Growing up in Communist Romania03:50 Passing the government's test to get into law school06:02 Quitting law and finding faith in a stranger's church10:26 Defending Christian prisoners and becoming international news17:07 House arrest and threats against her family19:11 The document that reached Reagan, and the beating that followed24:18 The assassin sent to kill her27:11 Escaping to America and starting over with three kids43:57 The dictator's fall and what she still believes about justice*Connect with Virginia Prodan*https://www.linkedin.com/in/virginia-prodan-0244581b/https://www.instagram.com/virginiaprodan/https://www.facebook.com/virginiaprodanauthor/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.

What Every Michigan Business Owner Should Know Before They Get Sued | Brandon Grysko
Brandon Grysko spent seven years wearing a badge before he ever put on a suit.He started out chasing a fireman's paycheck, landed in EMS, and then his dad, a career sheriff's deputy, pointed him toward policing instead. Brandon started noticing he liked the union side of the job more than the job itself. Contract negotiations. Discipline hearings. The parts that looked a lot like law.Now he runs Fausone & Grysko, a business law firm in Northville, Michigan, and he still thinks like a cop every single day he practices.We covered a lot of ground in this one.→ Why he left police work, and what his wife's sleep had to do with it→ What actually happens in your body during a high stress police encounter→ The one line cops can say that stops a traffic stop from escalating→ Why "defund the police" is usually the wrong question→ What most business owners get wrong before they end up in a lawsuitHere's what stuck with me. Most people either love cops or hate cops, and Brandon just wants people to be honest about what the job actually requires of a person's body and mind before they judge the split second decisions made inside it.Thanks to Brandon for making the drive up from Northville and giving us way more time than one episode of cop stories, faith debates, and business advice.

Detroit Fox News Host: What it’s REALLY like hosting a TV Show | Ronia Shamona
Ronia Shamona has spent 20 years in local news. Overnight shifts in Las Vegas. 20 years of live TV. Now she anchors FOX 2 Detroit Live in the 2 and 3 pm hours and hosts her own segment, Rona's Rundown.She did ten years on overnights before she had kids. After two kids and a stretch of postpartum on that schedule, she said it became impossible. She stepped away for six years to raise her kids before coming back to the chair…Now she is back on dayside, running a live, unscripted show where she does not know what is happening until the camera turns on. She still tracks missing kids cases long after they stop being news, because she is a mom first. And she is building something new, a platform focused on mental health, because she thinks people need somewhere honest to talk about what they are actually going through.What we covered: → Twenty years in news and what changed after she had kids → The Father's Day segment that got to both of us → Why she thinks being yourself is the only thing that works on live TV → Interviewing Akon, Joan Rivers, and the Trump familyShe has sat across from Akon and the Trump family in the same career, and the story that stuck with her the most was a dad on a Father's Day segment. That tells you everything about how she actually does this job.Thanks Ronia for stepping out of the anchor chair at FOX 2 Detroit to sit down with me. Go watch her weekdays at 2 and 3 pm.*Chapters*0:00 Intro1:07 Twenty years in news, and how overnights nearly ended it2:32 The live TV moments that never leave you5:40 Being herself on air, even during today's live rescue7:32 A day in the life of an unscripted anchor10:26 Breaking news, four studios, and why every market feels different15:30 The people she puts on air and the platform she's building next18:13 Rona's Rundown and the fight to keep news positive23:13 UFOs, the JFK files, and the political show that wrecked her30:15 A torn hamstring, Akon, and the moment she will never forget *Connect with Ronia*https://www.linkedin.com/in/roniashamona/https://www.instagram.com/tvronia/?hl=enhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/wjbk-tv-fox-2-detroit/ https://www.instagram.com/fox2detroit/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/WJBKFox2Detroit/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.

THIS Is Why Most Businesses Stay Stuck | Dr. Tim Tenneriello
Dr. Tim Tenneriello started out as a high school athlete who wanted to coach… which turned into a career running schools, then buying and scaling companies, then rebuilding wealth management practices from the inside.Through his career journey , he learned nobody actually cares about your resume if you can just help them get from point A to point B.That mindset took a struggling school to the top of its portfolio in four years, grew a company from $5M to $9M in his first year, and eventually led him to Procyon, where he now helps a team of 85 people do the same thing for their clients.In this episode of The Dillon England Show, we covered: → Why buying an existing business can beat starting one from scratch → The imposter syndrome that doesn't actually go away → What a rising tide needs to work, and what a sinking one does too → What Procyon does for business owners, from family office services to M&A supportThe big takeaway: the money follows the growth of people… Every.
