The next Elite Investor Meetup will spotlight how high-volume operators are finding the right deals, working with the right people, and continuing to win in a challenging market.

Topic:

"Right Deals, Right People: Strategies to Win in a Challenging Market"

Featuring John Galan, Phil Bach, and Riley Mudd, all actively executing real deals across Florida.

🌟 John Galan

Founder, EzyRes

John built a Florida-based wholesaling company averaging 100+ deals per year, with a focus on direct-to-agent and JV acquisitions.

He started his career as a CPA, learning real estate while working through tax seasons before closing his first deal and transitioning full time. Today, he has developed strong systems around sales, acquisitions, and investor deal sourcing, with a focus on scalability and agent relationships.

John is currently involved in five new construction projects across Florida and continues to expand into development while growing his wholesaling operation.


🌟 Phil Bach

Real Estate Investor | Sunset Home Buyers

Phil has been investing since 2014, closing over 500 transactions across flipping, wholesaling, and lending.

Through Sunset Home Buyers, he has built a business centered around helping sellers in difficult situations while consistently finding ways to get deals done. His operation now spans multiple markets across Florida, from Tampa to Tallahassee and Jacksonville.

Phil is known for building systems that allow for scale and is a strong advocate for a more transparent off-market sales process that better serves buyers, sellers, and wholesalers.

🌟 Riley Mudd

Real Estate Investor | Developer

Riley has wholesaled over 100 homes year to date and completed more than 150 transactions in 2025 alone.

Over the past seven years, he has flipped 200+ homes while building a rental portfolio of 30 properties. He is currently overseeing the development of 18 units, continuing to expand both his active pipeline and long-term holdings.

He is also a part owner of a brokerage and property management company, giving him a full view across acquisitions, operations, and asset management.
