At the early age of 16, he realized the importance of real estate and began his journey towards financial freedom. He used the experiences he gained and dived into real estate.  Renovation, construction, leasing out and managing properties. There's a lot of factors that would play to that and you need a team. Treasure the relationship you build to make a successful business.Marc is a good skater but believes he's not one of the best players. Still, he pushed forward with tenacity and willingness to work, which resulted in him becoming a pro player.  That's a skill that you need in real estate and life in general. If you don't have the tenacity and willingness to work towards your goal, you will never achieve any of your dreams. You can call it 'work ethic'.Unlike factors like wealth and time, work ethic can be controlled depending on your discipline. If you maintain a productive and healthy work ethic, your hard work will get results and success will follow.Podcast Episode 59Show sponsors: Rentometer - Rentometer lets you analyze rent on your property!RentRedi - Manage your property with this property management software.

Jonathan Seller believes that you should turn every dollar into employees and make them work for you.Everything started from having too much free time. He did what every other people did, he Google'd "How to Make Money Online". He wants more money but doesn't want to further decrease his available time. The word that stuck to him was 'passive income.' At first, he thought it was impossible. Put some further research on it that resulted in lots of get-rich schemes. Fumbling through all those, he finally stumbled into affiliate marketing which marked the changes in his life.Jonathan loved the idea of passive income and came up with work optional.

Value-added house hacking is a great strategy that is often ignored by people. It needs a keen eye and a larger budget which most new investors don't have. Nick and Sam started dating in their teenage years. They were still living with their parents when Nick started to think about the future and fell in love with the idea of house hacking. He started reading books and listening to podcasts which made him feel more confident about house hacking. However, Sam wasn't too fond of the idea and often had reservations towards it even when Nick managed to convince her to try and house hack.They lived in their parent's basement and started saving money. However, feeling unsatisfied with their current work-life, they decided to leave their high-paying jobs and truly focus on house hacking. Nick and Sam had the hobby to talk things out and plan their actions while lying on the couch. This helped them realize that value-added house hacking would be the way for them. Adding value to a property might need a bigger investment but the returns would also increase. Imagine buying a property with one bed, one bath and converting it to three beds, two baths. If you rent by the room, you could easily earn hundred dollars as extra and more if you Airbnb. It will also increase your chances of getting tenants with the additional facilities.Podcast Episode 57Show sponsors: Rentometer - Rentometer lets you analyze rent on your property!RentRedi - Manage your property with this property management software.
