The MORE Show

Billion dollar solar companies like Titan, SunPower, and SunNova collapsed almost overnight and most real estate investors and agents have no idea what that means for their deals. In this episode of The M.O.R.E. Show, Justin Colby sits down with Hung Nguyen, founder of Detach Reset Solar, who discovered one of the most overlooked niches in the entire real estate and home services space. Hung built a business around a single problem that nobody was solving, removing, storing, and reinstalling solar panels so roofing contractors could do their work and turned it into a blue ocean opportunity with a total addressable market covering millions of homes across the country.

KEY TOPICS COVERED:

Why major solar companies like Titan, SunPower, and SunNova went completely bankrupt.

The detach and reset solar niche explained — and why almost nobody knew it existed

How Hung Nguyen discovered the opportunity from a roofing contractor who couldn't sell roofs.

Why real estate investors and agents need to understand solar panels on every property they buy or sell.

How insurance line items for detach and reset solar create a funded opportunity for homeowners.

The blue ocean market, Hung was the only player for three years and what that meant for growth.

In this episode, I sit down for the third time with the legendary Grant Cardone — real estate mogul, founder of Cardone Capital, and creator of the 10X movement — and this one is the most raw and strategic conversation we've ever had. Grant breaks down his brand-new Real Estate + Bitcoin hybrid fund model, explaining exactly why he's fusing institutional-quality multifamily properties with Bitcoin on the same balance sheet, and why REITs — despite managing hundreds of billions — simply cannot replicate what he's doing. We also get into the origin story of the 10X Growth Conference, why he's shutting it down and pivoting to a wealth management model to compete with Charles Schwab and Merrill Lynch, how his Cardone Foundation is giving inner-city kids access to entrepreneurial education, and why he believes most people should never flip homes. Grant also opens up about the personal and legal challenges that come with scaling at his level, how partnerships protect you, and what the coming "tidal wave" of distressed real estate will mean for investors who are positioned and patient.

GRANT CARDONE

Grant Cardone is the CEO of Cardone Capital and Cardone Training Technologies, Inc., owning and operating over seven privately held companies. Cardone Capital is a private equity real estate firm managing a multifamily portfolio worth over $5 billion. Under his leadership, the firm has acquired a diversified portfolio comprising 14,600 multifamily units and 500,000 square feet of commercial office space across high-growth U.S. markets, raising more than $1.65 billion in equity from nearly 20,000 accredited and non-accredited investors, while distributing over $400 million in returns with zero investor principal losses. Grant is a New York Times bestselling author, international speaker, and is considered one of the top sales training and social media experts in the world, with over 15 million followers, fans, and connections across his platforms. He is also the founder of the 10X Movement and creator of Cardone University, and in 2024 he pioneered a first-of-its-kind real estate and Bitcoin hybrid investment fund model through Cardone Capital
