Who We Work With
Does this sound familiar?
Inflation is quietly eroding your buying power.
The cost of living keeps rising while your money works harder for everyone else but you.
The 9–5 grind is starting to feel like a trap.
You’re putting in the hours, but freedom, flexibility, and control still feel out of reach.
You worry about the future — yours and your kids’.
Relying on pensions, savings, or hope alone doesn’t feel like a solid plan anymore.
Don't worry, we can help!
Meet the Team of Professionals
Matt Gobeil
I am a real estate investor, podcast host, and lifelong learner focused on building wealth through smart investing and strong relationships.
I run Bird Dog Real Estate in Saskatchewan, where I invest in my own backyard — a market where strong cash flow still exists and the 1% rent rule isn’t dead.
I started Hustle & Homes to share real conversations around real estate, entrepreneurship, and personal growth with people who are actually doing the work.

Jeff Maximino
I’m a first-generation Canadian, raised by hardworking Portuguese immigrant parents whose resilience shaped my drive. Based in Ontario, Canada, I primarily invest in the U.S. real estate market, bringing an analytical mindset shaped by a background in biochemistry and a career in pharmaceuticals, medical cannabis, and private consulting. Today, I apply that same discipline to real estate—focused on building long-term wealth, financial freedom, and true time freedom through mentorship and strategic investing.

Santiago Amaya
I’m a dual U.S.–Canadian entrepreneur and father of two, based in Vancouver, BC, and actively investing in the Arizona real estate market.
I focus on wholesaling, wholetailing, flips, and long-term holds to create win-win deals while building sustainable wealth. Through the Hustle & Homes Podcast, I share real lessons on real estate, business, and mindset to help others take action and build financial freedom.
