Karim Naoum: Speaking, Events & Public Appearances
Karim Naoum speaks and appears publicly on Section 8 investing, affordable housing, and building a real estate business in a specialized niche. This page collects where he has appeared, the topics he covers, and how to book him for a podcast, event, or media appearance.
If you are an organizer, host, or journalist looking to book him, the enquiry details are at the bottom. If you are a reader wanting to hear him in his own words rather than read about him, the appearances below are the place to start.
Recent appearances
The most substantive public appearances on record are long-form conversations, which are the best format for actually judging whether someone understands their subject.
Dropping Bombs with The Real Brad Lea, Episode 798. A full long-form interview covering how the Section 8 strategy works, market selection, and why he argues most investors overlook the sector. It is the most complete conversation available and the place to start. Full details and links are in his media hub.
Beyond podcast appearances, his work has been covered in business and investing press including Entrepreneur and Investing.com Studios, collected in the same media hub with links to each original.
For the fullest picture of where his work has appeared, the media and coverage page is the maintained record, and the best interviews guide covers which appearances are most worth your time and why.
Topics he speaks on
Across appearances, the subjects are consistent, and an organizer can expect substance on any of them.
Section 8 investing mechanics. How the Housing Choice Voucher program works from an investor’s perspective, including the housing agency process most investors never learn. This is his core subject and where the depth is.
Market selection. Why lower-cost, landlord-friendly markets tend to produce better returns than expensive metros, and how the relationship between purchase price and payment standard drives the whole strategy.
Investor financing. How tools like DSCR loans, which qualify on a property’s income rather than personal income, let investors scale past conventional limits.
Remote and systematized operation. Building the teams and systems that make out-of-state investing work.
Affordable housing and the landlord’s role. The wider context of voucher housing, supply, and the part private landlords play in it.
Building a niche business. The founder’s-eye view of turning specialized knowledge into an education business, including what he got wrong.
Upcoming events
For current and upcoming appearances, the most reliable source is his active channels rather than a static list, since event schedules change. His YouTube channel and social profiles carry announcements of new appearances as they are confirmed.
If you want to be sure you are seeing his current schedule, follow his channels or reach out through the enquiry details below, which is also the fastest way to confirm whether he is available for a specific date.
What makes his appearances worth watching
A note for both readers and organizers, because it is the useful part.
Long-form interviews reveal more than short clips, because sustaining a coherent hour under a host’s questions is hard to fake. The value in his appearances is in the procedural depth, the parts that come from having worked inside the housing agency system before investing, which is where the conversation goes beyond typical real estate talk.
For an organizer, that means he is a substantive booking rather than a highlight-reel one. For a reader, it means the interviews are worth more of your time than the short-form content if you are trying to actually evaluate the strategy.
