The Total Wealth Academy Podcast
The Total Wealth Academy radio show is about much more than just using real estate to make more money. Real wealth includes all the parts of a balanced life: fitness, family, romance, charity, fun, travel, and, of course, money. Host Steve Davis started with bad credit and no money and ended up invested in over 4000 single-family and apartment units. He did this while maintaining above-average fitness, a 33-year marriage, raising two outstanding children, and simply living life to the fullest. He will show you how you can do this too using real estate to build passive streams of income. Steve and his team of mentors, who will be his guests on the show occasionally, have over 50 years of experience teaching people how to achieve their dreams through investing in real estate. Their one-on-one mentoring and consulting are second to none.

Ep. 807 - Single Family Investing Property Evaluation
Wednesday Nov 05, 2025
Wednesday Nov 05, 2025
Welcome back to the show! In this episode, Steve discusses how to accurately evaluate the value of a single-family home for real estate investing. To those not in the real estate investing business, single-family homes are what everyone else calls a house! The layperson is rolling their eyes and thinking that this can't really be a topic worth 45 minutes of discussion. They are obviously very wrong. Minor spoiler alert: A home is not worth what it is listed for by an agent, and it isn't worth what the government appraises it for. So, how does a person evaluate the value of a house? Join Steve and find out!

Ep. 805 - Talking About Passive Investing with Your Retirement Accounts
Monday Oct 27, 2025
Monday Oct 27, 2025
Welcome back to the show! In this episode, Steve discusses the concept of investing passively with retirement accounts. It may seem like a goal to be attained later in a career in real estate investing, but as Steve points out, many of our listeners need to understand that passive investing IS the starting point of their investing careers. Why is that? Well, many of our listeners are career-minded adults who have spent their lives accumulating wealth in their retirement accounts. Those people are not the type of investors who can start with active investments; their retirement accounts just won't let them! So how do you, they, get started? Tune in to this show!
