“As a real estate investor, inflation increases the value of your properties.” -Adam YorkIn today's episode, Kevin gets together with Adam York, Account Executive for DFY Real Estate, to discuss how you can put inflation to work for you.Most people view inflation through very negative lenses.

What if you could actually partner with inflation? What if it could help you achieve your income goals? We know there is a way you can do this and more.

“If you're a prepared buyer, it's always a good time to buy.” -Kevin ClaysonToday's episode is about the difference between market value, asking price, and appraised value.In this unique and brand-new market situation, all three values may differ, but they would all align in a “normal” market. We discuss how to look at these various values and their impact on an individual's purchasing power right now. We are sure that this can make a difference in your life. If you understand the market, you can invest and make your moves without fear. In that lies the importance of going beyond the standard industry practices and following a more practical approach to real estate (one that gets you better results and more freedom).In principle and philosophically, real estate can help to replace one's income bit by bit over time. It can work for you twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, even when you don't think about it. And so, the more you understand it, the more you can benefit from it.Key Takeaways:Introduction (0:00)There's a need for more prepared buyers (4:50)A property's worth is whatever someone is willing to pay (7:35)Some people are even paying above the asking price (15:14)If you're a prepared buyer, it's always a good time to buy (24:13)If you understand the market, you can invest without fear (25:41)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--FOLLOW for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

In today's episode, we talk about the death of the 1% Rule in real estate investing.“Rules of thumb aren't bad, but they can get in the way of good investments.” -Kevin ClaysonThe 1% Rule is a rent to price rule that has dictated the “what makes a good investment property” conversation for a decade.This rule was the judging value of whether or not investors wanted to look at a specific property. Since it is just a simple metric (based on what the rent is and what the purchase price is), following it religiously led many people to overlook good deals and waste time where they could have been receiving cash flow.The unspoken part about the 1% rule is that only about 1% of the properties meet that criteria. That's very few properties. The truth is that this rule does not work and is no longer a viable way to evaluate a property.Dive in to get all of the details.Key Takeaways:Introduction (0:00)The death of the 1% Rule (6:22)The unspoken part about the 1% Rule (8:58)The importance of calculating the opportunity cost (11:04)Properties have multiple profit centers (14:25)A sports analogy to deepen on these concepts (25:00)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--FOLLOW for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

In today's episode, we discuss some of the thoughts and principles that will help investors make the most of their relationship with their property manager.“Property managers love our clients because we provide them with a high-quality product.” -Kevin ClaysonThe property management companies that we work with genuinely care about the property, our clients' experience, and their goal is to make money on the property and that our clients are happy.However, not every real estate investor goes through the same experience. Many people go and try to find a property manager, somebody that can rent the home out. The issues start because they don't interview that property manager and find out the best way to work with them or how they will communicate with you and you with them. Just like communication, there are other things we can do to get the most out of our property management experience, and we want to talk a little bit about that today.Key Takeaways:Good property management makes properties profitable (9:56)Why good communication with your property manager is essential (14:34)Every property management company has different personalities (19:41)Understanding how economic incentivization drives property managers (25:48)Develop a good relationship with your property manager (29:11)Episode wrap-up (32:14)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--FOLLOW for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

In today's episode, we discuss the conclusion of the nationwide eviction ban, and we talk about the ramifications the eviction ban has had over the last year, as well as what people need to know about the topic moving forward.“The NAR helped the government take care of both tenants and landlords.” -Steve EarlYou know we're not like a radio talk show where we're talking about current events every day. However, we know that you're listening in real-time, so we want to give you the stuff that matters to the real estate market and to your real estate portfolio.

Today we're talking about inflation, how reports state that it is still increasing very fast, and how real estate gives us the ability to navigate it more successfully than many other things.“Get into real estate because it can act as a hedge against inflation.” - Kevin Clayson.We see it in real-time, with our own eyes. Inflation grew in June, more than at any other time since 2008. We saw inflation increased to 5.4%, and it's showing on the things we consume every day.Inflation is essential in our economy and a part of growth, but when it grows too quickly, it becomes unhealthy and can ultimately hurt many people.Since real estate is tangible and there is a limited supply, it works as a natural hedge against inflation.Listen as we discuss how you can protect against this tangible threat, and not even that, but take advantage of inflation and use it to replace your income and find financial freedom.Key Takeaways:Inflation is increasing, and the price of things we use daily is going up (1:34)Inflation is growth, but when it happens too fast, it hurts a lot of people (7:39)How real estate is a natural hedge against inflation (12:31)Why the price of homes goes up (14:50)Inflation is real and is increasing.

Today, we're talking about what's the difference between having a real estate plan and having an outline for the success of your real estate investments. “A flexible outline, instead of a rigid plan, allows you to capitalize on opportunities as they show up.” - Kevin ClaysonInvesting with purpose and having a game plan is very important. For many people, a plan is listing step one, step two, and step three and defining an ideal endpoint. The truth is that real estate cannot be put into that kind of a cage because there are so many things that can change along the way.You can know where you'd like to get with real estate and have an idea of what you need to do to get there, but you don't necessarily know what the market will look like in twenty years, ten years, or even in five years. Some elements of the market are predictable, but some aren't. That's why we know a regular plan won't work.Listen as we discuss how to use an outline for success in real estate.Key Takeaways:Why a rigid plan doesn't go along well with real estate (6:29)Using an outline to balance what you can and can't control (11:56)How one of our clients approached unexpected things with her real estate (16:42)An outline allows you to maximize the performance of your transactions (22:37)The key is to move based on your current real estate portfolio (29:49)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--FOLLOW for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

Today, we're talking about all of the ways DFY differs from traditional Turnkey Providers and the ever-so-popular Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat model. “One of the ways DFY differs from other companies is that we're long-term thinkers.” - Kevin ClaysonThe idea for today's episode actually came from a conversation Kevin had with one of our listeners. Kevin asked him, what he wanted to hear us talk about? His answer: he wanted to know what makes the DFY model different from Turnkey and BRRRR.For those not familiar with these models, here's a short explanation:Turnkey Model: A Turnkey provider will purchase a property, rehab it with their own money, rent it out, and then sell it to someone else.BRRRR Model: BRRRR stands for Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat. An investor buys a property, renovates it to add value, rents it out, and repeats the process.Now, these two models are extremely popular. Many people use them. However, DFY is something completely different. What makes us so different?That's not so easy to articulate. We have a pretty distinctive formula. For us, the way to invest in real estate depends on the type of clients we have. Our methods are so unique, because our clients are so different from the typical investor. . Listen as we discuss why this forced us to create a unique investment model. Key Takeaways:Celebrating the anniversary of Replace Your Income podcast (01:07)How the idea for today's topic came about (03:16)What makes DFY different from other real estate investment companies (06:24)How long-term thinking affects our investment method (10:20)Planting, cultivation, and harvesting your real estate investments (16:01)Handpicking properties and working with individual clients (26:02)Using relationships we built over the years to help our clients (31:55)Why it's so hard to come up with an elevator pitch for DFY (35:38)How DFY works with individual clients and final thoughts (38:25)Additional Resources:To get in touch with Gary Norris: CLICK HERELearn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--FOLLOW for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

We're talking to Gary Norris, one of the best DFY Real Estate acquisition directors, about opening a new market in Oklahoma City. “I want all DFY clients to look at Oklahoma City and say, this is the city I want to invest in.” - Gary NorrisAs we mentioned many times on this podcast, we're constantly vetting different markets. The demand for properties and increase in clients simply warrants going into a new market. We're glad to announce that we're opening a new DFY market in Oklahoma City. The decision to open an OKC market didn't come out of nowhere. We needed to do some research first. When we decided to go into a new market, a few months ago, we contacted Gary Norris. We've had a relationship with Gary for more than 10 years, and we were really excited when he accepted our invitation to become a member of the DFY team. Back in 2000, Gary became interested in real estate. Just five years later, he quit his job as a pharmaceutical sales rep to become a full time investor. Since then, he's actually flipped nearly 100 properties, using his masterful negotiation tactics. He actually did a ton of research to help us determine which market we should expand to. Tune in to hear how we met Gary, how our relationship developed over the years, and how he joined the DFY Real Estate team and helped us decide to open a market in Oklahoma City.

We’re discussing what you need to win deals in today’s market, the importance of building relationships with suppliers, and various negotiation techniques that will help you do it. “We know relationships are important. But would somebody just think all the way I'm going to win deals in a historically tight market is by building relationships?” – Kevin ClaysonThe housing market hasn’t been this tight in a while. At the start of spring 2021, homes in the United States sold 20 days faster, compared to the past several springs. The best properties are being snatched up fast. From the look of things, the market will remain like this for a while. A recent study by Freddie Mac revealed that the housing market is 3.8 million single-family homes short of what is needed to meet America’s demand. That’s a 52% rise in home shortage compared to just three years ago. If you want to profit, you must adapt. But how do you win deals in this historically tight market?There’s one single thing we identified as the differentiating factor that allows us to continue to win deals, no matter the state of the market. That differentiator is relationships. Key Takeaways:For how long will the housing market remain so tight (01:58)How relationships can help you win deals in a historically tight market (07:23)Why you need to have a good relationship with builders (13:10)Kip Tindell’s principle and how it can help you in the real estate market (14:50)Negotiating strategies that make sense in a tight market (19:15)Why you need to talk to your buying agent right now (27:30)How determination, perseverance, and patience help you win deals (31:29)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--SUBSCRIBE for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

We’re talking about the power of one. Why your actions matter and why you need to make action-based decisions both in your private life and real estate. “Our individual actions, that’s where power comes from. That’s where the impact comes from.” – Steve EarlIn this episode, we’re doing something different. We’re not talking about something simple and straightforward. There’s no discussion about the mechanics of property management. We’re talking about the power of one. What do we mean by it? Well, we’re discussing whether or not you have any power as an individual. Does your contribution have an impact? Can your actions change anything? Often times it doesn’t feel like it. That’s what we wanted to explore. Buying a single property may be just a small part of your plan, however, that single action can impact dozens, if not hundreds of people. To start making action-based decisions, first you need to realize the impact your actions can have.

We dive into real estate partnerships, how they should be established, what the various parts of a partnership deal should be, and how much each partner should be making inside of the partnership transaction. “Principle-based partnership means that everybody needs to come to the table with value.” - Steve EarlReal estate partnerships are common, but we are often asked how they work. In our experience, there are three parts to a real estate partnership: the money partner, the credit partner, and the managing partner. Of course, you can partner with one or ten people in your deal, but what really matters the most is that everyone has clearly defined contributions and gains.Without an agreement that outlines the terms of the partnership, you can expect a lot of issues down the road. In this episode, we explain how real estate partnerships work and what are some of the best practices that will ensure everyone in the partnership is happy.Key Takeaways:This is what a principle-based partnership entails (02:12)The 3 main roles in a partnership and how they work (04:42)An operating agreement is an absolute must (06:00)Some of the reasons you might consider a partnership (09:16)What can a credit partner expect inside a partnership (13:40)This is the role of the money partner (19:16)A managing partner is an important piece of the puzzle (22:45)How to avoid common mistakes in real estate partnerships (24:00)The questions to ask yourself before you decide to partner up (28:37)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--SUBSCRIBE for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.

Many real estate investors think you have to buy a deal with equity built-in, meaning you have to buy a deal that is worth more than you are paying. But real long-term success in real estate proves that you make equity over time - you don't have to buy with it baked in.In fact, let’s revamp the concept of what a good deal is, and let’s consider what a purchase-worthy property might be. Now, this may not fit your traditional real estate education, but in our long career, we’ve found that purchase-worthy properties make way more sense than a “good deal”.“It's the factors beyond the numbers that will dictate whether or not something is a purchase-worthy property.” - Kevin Clayson In this episode, we break down five criteria by which we determine whether we have a purchase-worthy property on our hands or not. Tune in to find out more!Key Takeaways:What people traditionally think is a good deal (01:28)The first criterium is always the market value (07:13)Your decision needs to be based on the market environment (11:15)Something a lot of people don’t consider before buying (14:25)Don’t get carried away with the numbers (18:12)Why is a positive cash flow so important to look for (23:10)Predictability and consistency as cornerstones of success (28:44)Additional Resources:Learn more about Done For You Real Estate: VISIT HEREGet a FREE Income Replacement Estimate (IRE): APPLY HERERegister for our FREE Monthly Webinar Series: SIGN UP HERE--SUBSCRIBE for more Replace Your Income:https://bit.ly/ReplaceYourIncomePodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review our podcast.
