Real estate teaches us something early on that’s hard to forget:
You can pour hundreds of hours into a buyer…
Only to watch the deal die at the closing table.
Only to watch the deal die at the closing table.
Time spent does not guarantee money earned.
That’s normal in most parts of this business.
BPOs are different.
One of the Few Places Where Time = Money (Every Time)
In BPO work, the math is brutally honest.
- You complete the report → you get paid
- You submit on time → the fee shows up
- No contingencies
- No emotions
- No last-minute collapses
Every finished BPO produces income.
Every single one.
That makes BPOs one of the purest exchanges of time for money in real estate.
Which is exactly why speed matters so much.
The Accelerator Was Built Around This Reality
The BPO Income Accelerator was never designed to “teach BPOs.”
Most agents already know how to pull comps and fill out forms.
It was built to answer a more important question:
“How do you do this repeatedly, quickly, and without burning out?”
That’s why efficiency — including completing BPOs in 30 minutes or less — is baked into the full program.
Not as a trick.
Not as a hustle.
But as a requirement.
Not as a hustle.
But as a requirement.
When BPOs Start Taking Too Long, the Math Breaks
A BPO that takes 30 minutes is predictable.
A BPO that takes 60 minutes quietly cuts your income in half.
A BPO that takes 60 minutes quietly cuts your income in half.
Same fee.
Double the time.
Zero warning.
Double the time.
Zero warning.
That’s not a motivation problem.
That’s a structure problem.
That’s a structure problem.
And structure is exactly what the accelerator fixes.
Why This Matters More Than Buyer Work Ever Will
With buyers:
- Effort ≠ outcome
- Time ≠ guarantee
With BPOs:
- Completion = payment
- Time saved = capacity gained
When agents learn to:
- Follow the correct order of operations
- Make pricing decisions early
- Eliminate rework and second-guessing
They don’t just get faster — they get predictable.
And predictability is rare in real estate.
The Real Advantage Isn’t Just Speed
Speed gives you:
- More margin per hour
- Less mental fatigue
- The ability to handle volume without chaos
But more importantly, it gives you control.
Control over your day.
Control over your workload.
Control over how much you earn from the hours you actually work.
Control over your workload.
Control over how much you earn from the hours you actually work.
That’s why the accelerator doesn’t separate speed from systems — they’re taught together.
Final Thought
Most areas of real estate ask you to gamble your time and hope the money shows up.
BPOs don’t.
They pay you every time you finish the work.
The only variable you control is how long that work takes.
That’s what the BPO Income Accelerator is really about.

Let’s be clear about this.
$1,020 in BPO income in one day is busy.
Especially in early January.
Especially in early January.
That’s not a trickle.
That’s not “warming up.”
That’s real work moving through the system — and it’s happening before most agents expect it.
That’s not “warming up.”
That’s real work moving through the system — and it’s happening before most agents expect it.
Why That Matters Right Now
Early January is usually uneven:
- Lenders reopening pipelines
- Portfolios being reassigned
- Vendors rebalancing coverage
So when you see a four-figure BPO day this early, it’s a signal — not an outlier.
It means:
- Orders are already being released
- Coverage is being tested
- Agents who are active are getting work
This is how momentum starts.
Busy Doesn’t Mean Chaotic — If You’re Prepared
Here’s the important distinction:
Busy without structure feels overwhelming.
Busy with systems feels manageable.
Busy with systems feels manageable.
That’s why this phase matters.
Not because everyone needs to jump in immediately — but because this is when you decide how you want to handle volume when it shows up consistently.
What This Window Is Really For
Early January gives agents space to:
- See what real daily volume looks like
- Decide how much they actually want
- Set boundaries before things accelerate
- Learn workflows without pressure
This isn’t about being ahead of others.
It’s about being intentional before things stack.
It’s about being intentional before things stack.
2026 Isn’t Loud Yet — But It’s Moving
The broader conditions haven’t changed:
- More loan reviews
- More portfolio stress
- More valuation work
That work doesn’t hit all at once.
It builds — exactly like this.
It builds — exactly like this.
A $1,020 day in early January doesn’t mean chaos tomorrow.
It means the year is starting to take shape.
It means the year is starting to take shape.
Still Curious What This Looks Like in Practice?
Here’s a walkthrough that explains how this works in real workflows, not theory:

This Is Still a Conversation
If BPOs are part of what you’re considering for 2026, this is the right time to talk:
- What “busy” would look like for you
- What systems actually reduce stress
- How to avoid common early mistakes
- Whether training now makes sense
No pressure.
No hype.
Just clarity.

Because $1,020 in one day isn’t theoretical.
It’s already here.
It’s already here.
If you’re looking at early-January numbers, you might be thinking:
“Is volume slowing down?”
That’s a normal reaction — and it’s usually the wrong conclusion.
The Reality of Early January
The first 1–2 weeks of January are always distorted:
- Lenders are reopening pipelines
- Asset managers are re-forecasting portfolios
- Vendors are reassigning territories
- New loss-mitigation strategies are being finalized
In other words: the machine is warming up, not shutting down.
Anyone who’s worked BPOs through multiple cycles knows this pattern well.
What Comes Next (and Why 2026 Is Different)
The bad news hasn’t changed:
- More foreclosures are projected for 2026
- More loan reviews
- More portfolio stress
- More valuation work required
That’s not good news for homeowners — and it shouldn’t be celebrated.
But it does create necessary work that must be done.
And that work shows up as Broker Price Opinions.
Historically, BPO volume lags distress, not leads it.
Which means the increase doesn’t show up on January 1st — it shows up after lenders move.
Which means the increase doesn’t show up on January 1st — it shows up after lenders move.
That’s where we are right now.
Why This Is an Opportunity Window (Not a Red Flag)
When volume ramps:
- Vendors don’t want beginners learning on live files
- They want agents who already know the process
- They want consistency, speed, and accuracy
That’s why preparation matters more than timing.
Agents who wait until orders explode are already behind.
Agents who prepare before the surge get positioned first.
Agents who prepare before the surge get positioned first.
Why a Conversation Matters More Than Ever Right Now
Early January is the right time to ask:
- Does a second, predictable income stream make sense for you?
- How much volume would you actually want?
- What mistakes do new BPO agents make when things ramp fast?
- Would training save you time before volume hits?
Those are conversation questions — not checkout-page questions.
The Smart Move in Early 2026
Not panic.
Not rushing.

There’s no shortage of information about Broker Price Opinions.
You can find videos that show how to fill out a form.
You can take courses that explain what a comp is.
You can even get certified without ever doing a single paid order.

You can even get certified without ever doing a single paid order.
That’s not the problem.
The real problem is that knowing how to do a BPO does not automatically lead to income.
Mechanics don’t create consistency
Most BPO education focuses on mechanics:
- how to select comps
- how to upload photos
- how to submit a report
Those things matter, but they only answer one question:
“Can you complete a BPO?”
“Can you complete a BPO?”
They don’t answer the questions that actually affect your life:
- Which orders should you accept?
- How many is too many?
- How do you prevent BPOs from taking over your week?
- How do you make the income predictable instead of random?
That’s where most agents get stuck.
Systems are what create income
What I teach is different by design.
I teach systems:
- how to structure BPO work around a real schedule
- how to manage volume without burning out
- how to decide what’s worth your time and what isn’t
- how to turn sporadic orders into something you can actually plan around
The goal isn’t to become “good at BPOs.”
The goal is to make BPOs work for you, not against you.
The goal is to make BPOs work for you, not against you.
Why this matters
Two agents can know the exact same mechanics and have very different outcomes.
One stays overwhelmed, underpaid, and inconsistent.
The other builds steady income with boundaries and control.
The other builds steady income with boundaries and control.
The difference isn’t talent.
It’s not hustle.
It’s structure.
It’s not hustle.
It’s structure.
When systems are in place:
- you stop guessing
- you stop reacting
- you stop feeling behind
And income becomes something you manage, not something you hope for.
Watch the video
I recorded a short video that goes deeper into this distinction — why systems matter more than mechanics, and how that shift changes everything about how BPO work fits into your business.
If you’ve ever felt like you “understand BPOs” but don’t see consistent results, the video will make the gap very clear.
Final thought
Learning how to complete a BPO is easy.
Learning how to run BPOs as a system is what makes the difference.
Learning how to run BPOs as a system is what makes the difference.
That’s what I teach.
Most people think BPO work is about filling out forms.
It’s not.
It’s about managing volume, timing, communication, and consistency — all at once.
Over the years, I’ve watched agents struggle not because they couldn’t do the work, but because the process around the work kept getting in their way. Emails get missed. Orders get buried. Payment dates get forgotten. Interior scheduling turns into a back-and-forth mess.
That’s exactly why I’ve been working behind the scenes on a dedicated BPO automation app — and I’m now in the finishing touches phase.
The goal is simple:
Remove the friction that doesn’t need to exist.
Remove the friction that doesn’t need to exist.
Here’s what the app does in real life.
It starts the moment a BPO order hits your inbox.
The app scans incoming emails automatically, evaluates the property location, fee, and deadline, and accepts the order if it meets your criteria. No manual review. No hesitation. No missed opportunities.
Once accepted, the important details are extracted and logged instantly into a central system — not copied, not retyped, not forgotten.
For interior orders, it goes a step further. The app automatically sends a professional email and text to the point of contact requesting a site visit date. No chasing. No follow-ups slipping through the cracks.
Then comes the part most agents underestimate: payment tracking.
Every accepted order is grouped by expected payout date so you always know what’s coming and when. No spreadsheets. No guesswork. No end-of-month surprises.
This is how modern BPO agents work — not by doing more, but by letting systems handle what systems should handle.
I’m targeting a late January rollout, and my students will receive this app free for one full year as part of their package. Not as an upsell. Not as a separate subscription. Included.
Why?
Because time matters.
If this app saves even:
- 10–15 minutes per order
- One missed email per week
- One forgotten follow-up per month
That adds up quickly — not just in time saved, but in mental energy preserved.
The agents who succeed long-term in BPOs aren’t the ones who hustle harder. They’re the ones who remove friction and stay consistent.
A Quick Year-End Note
As of this week, I’ve officially sailed past my $125,000 BPO income goal for 2025, landing at $125,339 — strictly from BPO work.
No courses.
No side offers.
Just consistent valuation work, done the same way week after week.

I mention that not as a finish line, but as proof of what boring, repeatable systems can quietly produce over time.
One Last Thing (For Those on the Fence)
For anyone who’s been reading along and considering joining, the 20% enrollment discount is still available through January 1st.
No rush, no pressure — just a reminder before the calendar flips.
After that, the program continues as usual.
More soon.
