2020 has been a tough year for finding deals—even for us. In fact, the Nighthawk Equity team is currently in the process of closing on our first and only deal of the year (so far). But that’s not for lack of trying! So, what are we looking for in a deal right now? How have we changed our underwriting criteria in the age of COVID? And how do we recover from the disappointment of losing a deal? Garrett Lynch is the Director of Acquisitions at Nighthawk Equity, the investing arm of the Michael Blank organization. Garrett has been in the multifamily space since 2011, cofounding a firm that grew from zero to 3,400 units before successfully exiting that venture. Since taking on his role with us at Nighthawk in 2018, Garrett has built a portfolio that includes at 218-unit property in Little Rock, Arkansas a 276-unit in Huntsville, Alabama, and a 130-unit deal in Atlanta, Georgia. On this episode of Apartment Building Investing, Garrett joins me to explain how his strategy for finding multifamily deals has evolved over the years and what we look for in a deal at Nighthawk Equity. He describes what he does to build rapport with brokers and stay in touch, sharing how strong broker relationships helped us land our current deal in Atlanta. Listen in for Garrett’s insight on recovering from the disappointment of losing a deal and learn how to adjust your underwriting to find good multifamily deals in the COVID era.

This week on Inside the Greenroom, we have the top three finalists from our recent Speak Off. As you know, the Speak Off looked different this year as we shifted from our annual Reach Live event, into A360i. The stage was set, the signature talks were written, rehearsed, and ready to go, and the speakers were managing the butterflies in their stomachs in the weeks leading up to what we call “The American Idol of Speaking.” Then, in what felt like a split second, everything changed. The Speak Off contestants went from preparing to wow a live crowd to speaking into a webcam. These top three contests represent the best in the business. Speakers who can flip on a dime, go with the flow, and approach the stage and the screen with the same energy and passion is something we all can learn from in a digital age. Join Blair Bryant Nichols Inside The Greenroom as he interviews Ganelle Elliott from Essentially Woman, The Founder at Extreme Martial Arts, Garrett Poole, and Grand-prize Speak Off winner and music therapist, Tim Ringgold. Learn their secret on how they have pivoted in this time of crisis, how Pete and Pat have impacted their lives, and what you can do to be a more powerful speaker in 2020 and more. Here’s what we cover: Our guests journey to becoming speakers The Power of community Using your backstory to fuel your success What attracted each speaker to the Speak Off The shifts they made to be successful during COVID How sharing your personality can bring people into your community How therapy can impact your success Why every successful person needs accountability The one thing that all three speakers did that got them in the top spot And much more!

Tim was the first person to give a TEDx talk on music therapy in 2012. Tim is also a former Regional President of the American Music Therapy Association. More About Garret: Over the last 20 years, I have devoted my life to self-defense and training with professionals, even winning a world championship, but none of that touches my heart more than the 9,654 students I have taught in-person to date how to defend themselves. I founded “Lady In Defense” a roadmap for abused women that focuses on the whole person. Mind, Body, Heart & Spirit. Where we focus on escaping the chains of our past, healing our wounds, rediscovering who we are and finding our courage and bravery again More about Ganelle: Ganelle Elliott is an IT professional, speaker, and women's empowerment coach. With a 19 year career in IT, Ganelle understands the unique challenges that professional women face when attempting to balance career aspirations with creating a fulfilling home life. Building a successful career in a male-dominated industry held its own unique challenges. The years were full of chronic stress, fleeting confidence, and crippling fears of rejection... all exacerbated by the relentless need for perfection. After being hospitalized from spontaneous lung collapse, Ganelle needed a change. She sought out other women who could help her navigate the jungle of burnout, but that pool of mentors was completely bare. In 2014, she decided to educate herself on burnout and study personal development. After 4 years of trial and error, Ganelle finally discovered how an ambitious woman could break the vicious cycle of burnout and overwhelm. Today, Ganelle lives burnout free with her husband and step-daughter. She has stepped into her courage and determination, faced her inner critic, and gave herself permission to live a fulfilled life. Now Ganelle is on a mission to help other professional women break free from burnout, step into their power, to live their most epic lives.

We’ve had some pretty heavy episodes lately, but this week we’re keeping it chill. And how can we get more chill than a conversation with international big wave explorer Garrett McNamara (and his adorable daughter)? Garrett has done some insane stuff in his days, much of which is documented in his wild memoir "Hound of the Sea: Wild Man. Wild Waves. Wild Wisdom." We’re talking about things like surfing Tsunami waves generated by caving glaciers in Alaska, getting smashed by a 50-foot wave at Mavericks, and breaking the world record for surfing the largest wave in Nazaré, Portugal. We also get into the fear of death that you feel facing these monstrous waves and how Garrett got over it, his top biohacks for healing and recovery, and when to rely on Western medicine versus Eastern healing philosophies. This episode is a whole lot of fun, with some absolutely wild stories, but there are also some great lessons to learn about maintaining your body and health. I mean, this dude was competing at the highest level of big wave surfing in his 50s with kids half his age, so I’m taking notes. 08:30 — Garrett’s upcoming documentary The documentary will cover surfers who have experienced injuries and were told not to go back to big wave surfing 12:05 — Garrett’s rough childhood and how that contributed to his determination to succeed He had to work for everything Developing an unwavering focus on achieving something great His experience with drugs 15:00 — Surfing tsunami waves created by a caving glacier The goal: surfing a wave created by a force other than a low-pressure system Possibly the craziest and dumbest thing Garrett’s done? 19:15 — Facing the fear of death (and getting over it) The process of mastering fear A short glossary of need-to-know surf terms Naming his kid “Barrel” 26:00 — What it was like riding the 78-foot wave in Nazaré Garrett thinks there have been bigger waves ridden since then He wasn’t even planning to surf that day He was actually really frustrated on the wave at first How do they measure big waves? It’s surprisingly controversial What’s it like being put on a pedestal within your field? "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success: A Pocketbook Guide to Fulfilling Your Dreams" by Deepak Chopra The impact of drug legalization in Portugal 36:40 — The history of surfing and the first humans on record to do it It started in Hawaii as the sport of kings, and only kings could surf 37:50 — His deep relationship with the sea and why he connects so profoundly with the water Surfing was a long-time passion, becoming a pro was a fluke Garrett is actually allergic to saltwater McNamara means Hound of the Sea 41:15 — The epic tale of getting smashed by a 50-foot wave at Mavericks Being out in the deep water without a board Due to modern safety equipment, most wipeouts have been pretty fun, but this one was different How does water break bones?

In this episode, I'm speaking with fellow Intelligent Speculation team member Garrett Wise about science, philosophy and the need for more critical thinking in today's world. We discuss: •How Garrett first became interested in science and why physics. •How he became interested in philosophy and what aspects of philosophy are of most interest to him. •The trolley problem and how different camps of philosophy approach this thought experiment. •Moral licensing: what is it and my own musings about moral licensing in the real world. •You don't have to be a genius to study science. •Anti-intellectualism, fake news, the anti-science movement, and why it's worth debating with the “true believers.” •Why is it that religion and political discourse is taboo in our society and how this cultural norm is actually damaging to the social fabric. •How critical thinking can be used to elevate humanity moving forward. •And other topics finished with a final important passage read by Garrett. Garrett Wise holds a Bachelor's Degree in Physics as well as a minor in Philosophy from Northern Illinois University. Besides producing great content for Intelligent Speculation, he works as an analytical chemist who frequently philosophizes about the nature of existence. Through his writing, he hopes to challenge your commonly held beliefs and convince you that science, logic, and critical thinking are the best tools we have to understand the world around us.

Garrett Gunderson is called a financial genius in entrepreneurial circles, but he wasn't born with a silver spoon. In fact, the son of a fourth-generation coal miner, Garrett’s blue-collar roots are what makes him so passionate about helping entrepreneurs build economic independence through his business, The Wealth Factory. In today’s show, we dive into Garrett’s simple upbringing and yet how he grew up with an entrepreneurial mind, even at a young age. We discuss the importance of traveling and gaining a sense of connectedness, how Garrett filmed his origin story and was able to break generational wounds of his grandparents only to go through various stages of what he refers to as the four losing personas with money. He also discusses how these four personas can be flipped around to benefit ourselves and others with a goal towards collaboration and innovation. If you want to transform your thoughts into profits, keep way more of what you make, keep and grow your money without sacrifice or delay, then Garrett is your guy. If you enjoyed this show and want to learn more about how to make your dollar go further while getting into the correct money mindset, be sure to check out our shows with James Altucher and Noah St. John. “I’m looking to heal generational wounds, create a new story where our family can break the shackles of scarcity that came over with my grandfather as he tried to break free from poverty, and instead embrace abundance and purpose, understand value creation, and develop our gifts and invest in ourselves. That work really matters to me.” - Garrett Gunderson Some Topics We Discussed Include: How Garrett’s humble upbringing changed the course of his life His 14 * 4 * 6 strategy that helps strengthen his marriage The four losing games when it comes to money - are you one of these?

The vast majority of our attendees seek us out specifically because they have had enough of the traditional “death-by-PowerPoint” seminars that are rife with vague self-help sound bites, trust falls, overcrowded conference rooms, shouting gurus, and topics that ignore the chaotic realities of true leadership such as: Topics Include: Navigating Power Dynamics & Politics Building Buy-In Across Varying Generations The Role of Perception in Leadership The Skilled and Ethical Use of Influence in Leadership 7 Critical Elements of Interpersonal Communication Strategies for Making Better Decisions While Under Duress The Truth Regarding Self-Awareness and Reflection Conflict Resolution in the New Age Creating Assessments and Evaluations For Yourself and Your Team This is done through a strategic mixture of case study reviews, role playing break-outs, self and peer evaluations, film break-downs, group discussions and more. The truth is that every leader needs a safe place to rehearse and refine their strategies for some of life's biggest moments-The Apprenticeship™ is that place.

Garrett Gunderson is Founder and Chief Wealth Architect of Wealth Factory, a lifelong entrepreneur, keynote speaker and a New York Times best-selling author of Killing Sacred Cows: Overcoming the Financial Myths That Are Destroying Your Prosperity. He has dedicated his life to educate and serve hard-working, honest business owners. Garrett comes from a 4th generation coal mining family, raised in rural Utah. His great-grandfather left Sangiovese, Italy to escape government corruption and excessive taxation. He came to America and was separated from his family for 7 years, living in a tent so he could build a better life for his family. Garrett's approach to personal finance is firmly rooted in this history. His company, Wealth Factory, helps self-made business owners and entrepreneurs who understand hard work — but who haven't been given the proper financial tools to build lasting wealth. Because even though Garrett's great-grandfather understood the value of hard work, he never got to enjoy it. And without proper structures, hard work is like eating soup with a fork. You keep busy but stay hungry. So, Garrett imagined his great-grandfather was his client. How could he have helped him grow his wealth faster? And with that thought in mind, he built the kind of company that would have helped his great-grandfather build Economic Independence in 3-7 years instead of taking three generations to break the cycle of scarcity. The process Wealth Factory uses to help you is simple. First, we recover leaking money that's rightfully yours. Next, we connect you with experts who create a framework that preserves, protects and grows your money. And finally, we build structures that help you live wealthy now while creating a lasting family legacy. This family legacy — and the burning desire to pass on what he's learned to his children — are what drive Garrett to help others. He now spends his time innovating new financial tools and technologies that help small business owners and entrepreneurs like you build lasting wealth, live the life you love, and pass on a lasting family legacy of your own. He believes your legacy is defined not just by money, but by the values and contribution you pass along. Over the past decade, he's carefully built a team of financial experts around him to help guide other entrepreneurs toward Economic Independence. A key part of that team is called The Accredited Network.
I had to bring Garrett Gunderson, author of (https://www.killingsacredcows.com/home) , onto the show because his mission so closely aligns with mine: helping to manufacture economic independence for 1 million entrepreneurs by 2020. That’s why he created the Wealth Factory, a comprehensive personal financial education and implementation program for entrepreneurs, health care professionals, and small business owners.

In Episode 38, Garrett M. Graff goes behind-the-scenes of his new book, The Only Plane in the Sky (one of my top books of 2019). This post contains affiliate links, through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). Highlights Where Garrett was on 9/11. What he was trying to accomplish with his book. The big challenge of understanding 9/11 as it moves “from memory into history.” The lack of communications and confusion of that day. How Garrett compiled all these little snippets of memory into a compelling story arc. How 9/11 was an inflection point in how Americans respond to a potential threat. What Garrett thinks is the “most interesting moment of 9/11.” The general demeanor of people he interviewed in person as they reflected back on 9/11. The one person he wanted to interview for the book that declined and why it ultimately ended up being a good thing for the book. The original length of the book. Why Garrett was able to talk about the U.S. government’s emergency plans, bunkers, etc. How The Only Plane in the Sky sort of came out of Garrett’s previous book, Raven Rock. Survivor’s guilt surrounding 9/11 and reaction from the Clinton Administration. Garrett’s favorite fiction writer. Garrett’s favorite narrative nonfiction of 2019.

The Cleveland Browns got their first win of the season, topping the New York Jets 23-3 on "Monday Night Football." On this Cover 2 podcast, Steve Doerschuk and Dan Kadar recap the game going through three topics: Thoughts on the offense, the play of Myles Garrett and something the team needs to work on going forward. Specifically, these topics are touched on: - How the offense and Baker Mayfield looked disjointed at times on Monday night. - What Mayfield's issues can be attributed to. - Speculating on what Mayfield's issue may be and whether or not the Browns are risking things by keeping him in games that are clearly decided. - Garrett's "controlled violence" play this season, and how he's expressing the type of talent you'd expect from a No. 1 overall pick. - How Garrett is dominating despite playing less snaps than last season. - Going into a tough stretch of five games, where every team is currently 2-0, what the Browns need to work on.
Our guest this week on "The Long View" is Sheryl Garrett. Garrett is a legendary figure in financial-planning circles, having pioneered the concept of offering hourly financial-planning guidance. She's founder of the Garrett Planning Network, a national network of hourly, fee-only financial planners that she started in 2000. Garrett has authored, co-authored, or served as technical editor on many books, including Garrett's Guide to Financial Planning, Just Give Me the Answer$, and the Personal Finance Workbook for Dummies. She has worked with the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services regarding predatory lending regulation, financial literacy, and Social Security reform. She has also received numerous awards in the realm of financial planning during her career. Most recently, InvestmentNews named Garrett as its 2019 Icon.

In this episode, we sit down with author and historian Garrett Peck to discuss the causes, proximal effects, and long-term ramifications of Prohibition, AKA The Volstead Act, which is a piece of legislation that still affects the way we make, consume, and talk about spirits and cocktails in the United States. Some of the topics we discuss include: How Garrett evolved from a casual weekend tour guide and cocktail enthusiast to a successful historical author. The events and forces that paved the way for prohibition, including the temperance movement, World War I, and many strains of racial and economic strife in America. How the Volstead Act worked, and why it was sort of a “bait and switch” for the American people - especially those who enjoyed a good stiff drink. The ins and outs of everyday life during Prohibition, including bootlegging, rum running, bathtub gin, and speakeasy design. The fascinating story of the Man in the Green Hat Why Prohibition still affects the laws and sentiments concerning spirits & cocktails in the U.S. all these years after its momentous repeal. And much, much more.
Garrett Gunderson is called a “financial genius” in entrepreneurial circles, but he wasn’t born with a silver spoon. In fact, Garrett’s blue-collar roots are what make him so passionate about helping entrepreneurs build Economic Independence. Garrett comes from a fourth generation coal mining family, raised in rural Utah. His great-grandfather left San Giovanni, Italy in 1913 to escape government corruption and excessive taxation. He came to America and was separated from his family for 7 years, living in a tent so he could build a better life for his family. Garrett’s approach to personal finance is firmly rooted in this history.

He believes your legacy is defined not just by money, but by the values and contribution you pass along. Garrett lives in Salt Lake City with his wife, two children and a dog. When he’s not traveling, speaking, or spending time with his family, Garrett enjoys Crossfit, eats Paleo and makes people laugh at local stand up comedy clubs. What you’ll learn about in this episode: How Garrett started his first business at 15 years old and how it kick-started his financial education Why finding a good mentor and continuing your financial learning is critical for success Why it’s important to save as much money as possible on taxes and to have a new tax professional review your tax returns every three years How to build an effective tax team with four key people who can save you money and why you should meet with them quarterly Which questions you should be regularly asking the professionals on your tax team to turn expenses into deductions Why thinking outside the box and using the reclassification of income can find tax deductions you might have missed and save you money Examples of finding unconventional ways to get tax credits through the purchase and donation of artwork and historical building easements How to get a free copy of Garrett’s book “What Would The Rockefellers Do?” Why hiring a good team of tax professionals will more than pay for itself and shouldn’t be considered an expense Garrett’s advice for new entrepreneurs for keeping more of your money in your pocket Resources: REInvestorSummit.com/wwrd REInvestorSummit.com/noteservicing REInvestorSummit.com/privatelenders REInvestorSummit.com/100 REInvestorSummit.com/101 Love the show?

In just five years, Garrett Moon has built CoSchedule from 0 to 7 figures in revenue, 9,000 customers, 1.5M monthly page views, and over 350k email subscribers. Listen to this episode to learn exactly how he did it. Topics Discussed in this Episode: [01:31] How Garrett started with his first agency and how far they got before moving forward with CoSchedule [04:37] The idea for CoSchedule and how they decided it was the product to move forward with [10:36] How they focused on getting customer feedback and understanding customers’ problems [14:17] What was their method of getting customer feedback? [15:28] What were their original SEO strategies? [17:12] What was their promotion strategy? [20:04] Launching the Actionable Marketing Podcast and how it has impacted their growth [23:22] What is their email list growth strategy and what were its drivers? [26:18] What were the 10X projects they released? [30:56] How they dealt with product changes and client base changes Key Takeaways: When you’re an agency and you have serviced customers, it’s really easy to leverage that relationship to get feedback on your software or to get them to buy it, and you kind of get this false sense of validation. When it comes to SaaS, you’re constantly adding more product. And as you make your product more complex and add more features, it becomes a better solution for larger customers. Development is never done. Your customers always need to see new features and they expect the software to get better and more powerful over time, not stay the same. The blog posts that drive traffic aren’t always the most valuable ones. And traffic isn’t always the best signifier of access to some customer segments. If you’re focused on two things, you’re not focused on anything. You can’t focus 100% on two things. Action Steps: Base your business decisions on growth velocity long-term versus just short-term happiness for certain customers. Be constantly focused on growth and moving upward. Learn to delegate and how to manage and trust people. Coach your talent to be good. Garrett said: “You have to learn to really understand the problem and then the emotional reasons that that user might buy a product versus ask them would they buy. It’s not even a real question because there’s so much emotion wrapped into buying, it’s just not a good place to start.” “The reality is that as your product changes and as your customer base changes, you have to make decisions or release features that you know are only going to help a certain set of users.” More from Garrett Moon: CoSchedule 10x Marketing Formula: Your Blueprint for Creating 'Competition-Free Content' That Stands Out and Gets Results by Garrett Moon Garrett’s Twitter: @garrett_moon Resources mentioned: Interviewing Users: How to Uncover Compelling Insights by Steve Portigal Actionable Marketing Podcast The Score Takes Care of Itself: My Philosophy of Leadership by Bill Walsh Sponsor link 14-day Free Trial to LeadQuizzes Thank you for listening!
