Discount Property Investor

What Discount Property Investor does

Discount Property Investor LLC is a St. Louis, Missouri-based real estate education and investing platform founded around 2021 and operated by co-founders David Dodge and Mike Slane. The company delivers a multi-tiered portfolio of products aimed at aspiring and active individual real estate investors: free introductory courses (Free Wholesale Course, Free Landlord Course) act as lead-generation funnels; one-time paid courses (Ultimate Wholesaling Course, Ultimate Landlord Course, listed at $2,499) provide deeper training; Real Estate Skool is a $27/month subscription community with bi-monthly coaching calls, contracts, and tools; and a high-ticket Mentorship Group priced from $6,000 to $25,000 offers three weekly group Zoom coaching calls and deal collaboration. Adjacent tools include Discount Property Leads (software for off-market property sourcing), a Contract Generator, and a Rental Analyzer tool.

The underlying technology is a content-and-community stack: the marketing site and course delivery run on Kajabi storefronts, the community runs on the Real Estate Skool platform (reiskool.com), and proprietary software tools sit inside that membership. The platform distributes globally online with a self-serve checkout model for courses and membership, supplemented by direct-sales mentorship programs. The company is the coaching and sales arm of the House Sold Easy Properties Franchise, where both founders also serve operational roles.

The go-to-market motion is community-led: a 350+ episode podcast, an active blog, free courses, and a newsletter drive top-of-funnel traffic; email and the Skool community convert leads; and the mentorship program anchors the high end of the funnel. The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding, no public financials, and no enterprise customers — revenue is generated entirely from a long tail of individual SMB/prosumer subscribers and course buyers.
