In this episode of the REBallers Podcast, host Vee Le sits down with Glenn Lowenstein, PG, and Shannon Ware of Terrain Solutions to discuss the critical—but often overlooked—role of Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments in real estate investing.

From mold and asbestos to groundwater contamination and structural issues, Glenn and Shannon break down why environmental due diligence matters for homebuyers, developers, flippers, and landlords alike. Learn how skipping this step can lead to million-dollar cleanup costs, legal issues, and lost deals.

Real-life examples from Houston—including infamous sites like Kennedy Heights and Long Point—underscore the importance of protecting your investment before you buy. Whether you're flipping homes, buying rentals, or developing land, this episode is a must-listen if you want to invest wisely and avoid costly mistakes.

Vee, the founder of REBallers, is a franchise owner and a Developmental Agent of HomeVestors “We Buy Ugly Houses”. Today, Vee is actively buying and selling properties in Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and Corpus Christi, TX while growing her rental portfolio of long term and short-term rentals.
