He has invested as both a general and limited partner and is known for his candid approach to alignment, underwriting scrutiny, and investor education. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Great deals and abundant capital rarely align—it's always a pendulum A conservative deal today may have felt aggressive just 24 months ago True GP-LP alignment is nuanced and difficult to achieve—acquisition fees often skew incentives Passive investors should study sponsors' fee structures, co-investments, and transparency The best investor relations approach isn't sales—it's expectation management Topics Falling in Love with Real Estate Early Evan's fascination with real estate began as a child watching shopping centers being built in Atlanta Studied finance and real estate at the University of Cincinnati, and started in retail REIT investor relations Has worked across roles in capital raising, investing, and ownership The Market's Capital-Deal Imbalance Capital and deal quality are rarely in sync—one is always scarce 2021–2022 saw capital flood the market, but often into weak deals Today feels like 2009 again, with conservative investors and fewer phone calls returned Lessons from the Downturn Floating-rate loans and short-term debt—not real estate quality—are behind many failed deals Evan cautions that "safe" real estate only stays safe with proper structure and conservative assumptions Overly optimistic IRRs, misaligned capital stacks, and loose underwriting have been exposed On Alignment and Fees Evan focuses on age and experience as critical factors when evaluating GPs Acquisition fees deserve close scrutiny—especially when they exceed co-investment amounts Sponsors who transact just to earn fees raise red flags around long-term alignment Managing Investor Expectations Great IR is about setting, managing, and exceeding expectations LPs who receive clear, accurate communication—regardless of performance—stay engaged longer Sales-driven approaches often lead to mismatches in trust and long-term relationships Navigating Growth and Team Building Scaling a syndication business brings team demands—growth isn't always about ego Even small increases in payroll or promotions require deal flow and capital Balance between investor returns and internal sustainability is delicate and evolving Track Record and Debt Structure IRR isn't enough—investors should ask how much of a return came from NOI growth vs. cap rate compression Evan favors sponsors who have survived downturns and learned from risk exposure Floating debt creates the illusion of strong deals—fixed-rate debt demonstrates stability

Thinking of turning that vacant Dollar Tree into a food hall? Hit pause—this episode might save you a fortune.Food halls are trendy, flashy, and tempting—especially when you're sitting on 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of empty space. But after seeing too many landlords lose big, I'm here to sound the alarm. In this episode, I break down why most food halls fail, the false promises they offer, and what you should consider before signing on to build one. From startup tenant churn to high buildout costs and low foot traffic, I share real examples (including failed projects from close friends) and challenge the food hall hype with a dose of truth. If you're serious about NOI, you need to hear this.Key Takeaways:- Don't default to a food hall just because you have a large vacancy- Buildout costs are massive; especially without a strong operator- Most food hall tenants are startups (and risky ones at that)- Failure rates remain high, even in trendy concepts- Location is everything: food halls only work with major traffic- Tourist-heavy areas offer better chances of success- Talk to real operators and visit proven sites before investing- A vacant anchor space doesn't equal a food hall opportunity- There are better ways to fill space; don't fall for the fadBECOME A COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE ROCKSTAR: https://www.bethazor.com/https://www.azoracademy.com/For more commercial real estate training: https://www.bethazor.com/training/FOLLOW ME ON SOCIALFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/azoradvisoryservices/Twitter: https://twitter.com/bethazor1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bethazor/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/6315636/#retailleasing #commercialrealestateinvesting #retailleasingcoach #bethazor

How did I make money on my first and worst investment? I'm going to be breaking down my first and worst investment and how I ended up making money on it and getting a free storage facility even after closing the business for 2 years.Read this entire interview here: https://tinyurl.com/mr22f6mxTop lessons learned from this experience:- Don't ever get into an asset class that you know nothing about without first going to industry specific events, building relationships, asking questions, and getting an advisor to help you analyze and purchase your first deal.- Buying portfolios can be a great thing, you get multiple properties at a discounted rate, and after you buy them, you split them up and sell a few at market price, while keeping the others.- This is not really related to car washes, but I have heard that the first offer you get is typically the highest offer you will get, and it turned out to be true in this case. When I decided to sell them while they were still open, we got an offer that was higher than the one that we ended up taking, but I turned it down because at that time the properties were not distressed and our sales price was based on actual NOI. However, it confirmed this theory that the first offer that you get is typically the highest offer you will get.- Work with a broker that exclusively sells that specific asset class, and follow up with them on a regular basis to make sure you and your properties are on top of their mind. I'm a believer in showing up and following up because people easily forget about you, whether you are selling or buying a property, you need to keep people accountable. This is not to say that the broker wasn't working on them, but it was to keep reminding her that I was really interested in selling them. My follow ups were about once a month/once every other month.- There's a known saying in real estate that “You make money when you buy”. And because I got these properties at a great price, and even though the deal was a complete failure, that is another reason why this worked out. Proving another real estate theory to be true.Three years after purchasing these properties I decided that it's not worth my time to try to fix it, and that I'd put the car washes up for sale, and close them completely. Not knowing when I was going to be able to sell them. I decided to take the hit on the mortgage payments until I sold them because my time was not worth the time that I was spending trying to solve that problem. The mortgage payments were cheaper than my time. The car washes stayed closed for two full years. Last year I managed to sell one of them, and this year I sold the remaining two, two years after completely closing them. I hope that you can learn from my lessons learned, so that you don't have to make the same mistakes that I made. To better investments!www.montecarlorei.com/investors

Certurile și împăcările sunt parte naturală a oricărei relații de cuplu. Conflictul nu este ceva neapărat negativ, este sănătos și necesar. Însă, când apare conflictul, un partener vrea conexiune, în timp ce altul vrea distanță, unul vrea să vorbească, celălat se închide și mai tare. Cum să ne certăm constructiv și cum să ne împăcăm în cuplu, am aflat de la Bianca Pescaru, psiholog clinician și psihoterapeut cognitv comportamental, invitata emisiunii Sănătatea FM. "Conflictul face parte din viață, conflictul nu este ceva neapărat negativ. Și asta, în pofida convingerii pe care mulți oameni o au, care cred că conflictul este ceva negativ și ceva distructiv. Însă conflictul la nivel de verbalizare, de comunicare, fără agresivitate verbală, fără agresivitate fizică, debate-ul de opinii și de perspective este un lucru care face parte din viață. Este un lucru firesc, pentru că se întâlnesc două perspective.", spune Bianca Pescaru, psiholog clinician, psihoterapeut cognitv comportamental, cu multiple specializări și formări în CBT, Schema Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Analiză tranzacțională și Coaching sistemic. Este absolut sănătos și necesar să existe conflicte în cuplu, deoarece sunt o oportunitate de creștere pentru noi ca ființe umane dar și pentru cuplu. Bianca Pescaru explică de ce: "Dacă noi n-am avea conflicte, n-am afla cum se simte celălalt, cum gândește celălalt, care este realitatea sa, cum se văd lucrurile din papucii săi, așa cum spunem noi. Și atunci aceste diferențe de opinie sau aceste verbalizări, care fac parte din cadrul unui conflict, ne ajută să îl înțelegem pe celălalt, îl ajută și pe celălalt să ne înțeleagă pe noi și în felul acesta cuplul crește, prin aceste conflicte noi. Noi ne repliem în urma conflictelor și mergem la următorul nivel.". În timpul unui conflict, ar fi util să evităm negativitatea sub orice formă, să nu aducem injurii, să nu aducem jigniri, să nu etichetăm persoana cealaltă, explică Bianca Pescaru. "De la "ești un prost, un tâmpit", tot felul de etichetări de genul ăsta, "din cauza ta, din vina ta, datorită ție, pentru că tu ai făcut sau n-ai făcut". Deci aruncarea cumva a responsabilității doar în cârca celuilalt, arătatul cu degetul și jignirile și etichetările sub diverse diverse forme. În cadrul unui conflict, din păcate, se activează, așa cum spuneam, părțile astea imature din interiorul partenerilor și atunci ajung să se certe copilul furios din interiorul unuia cu copilul furios din interiorul celuilalt. Și într-o luptă, fiecare începe să atace. Ce facem? În general, încercăm să atacăm, încercăm să ne apărăm prin forma aceasta de atac și de luptă. Lucruri care evident că nu ajută și escaladează și mai mult conflictul și îl fac pe celălalt să se enerveze, poate și mai tare, sau să se retragă sau să fugă din situația respectivă, să intre în acea evitare de care povesteam, și asta duce la foarte multă suferință pentru pentru ambii parteneri.", mai spune psihologul. Potrivit acesteia, fiecare persoană are un stil de atașament care determină determină modul în care reacționezăm. În general, ne caracterizează foarte mult modul în care noi relaționăm și modul în care ne comportăm. Și, evident, tot acest stil de atașament ne conduce foarte mult și reacțiile în cadrul unui conflict sau post-conflict. Există trei stiluri de atașament. Explică Bianca Pescaru: 1. Stilul de atașament anxios- oamenii care au acest stil de atașament sunt persoanele care într-adevăr sunt mai comunicative, sunt mai vorbărețe și care, în cadrul unui conflict sau post-conflict, simt nevoia de de ventilare, simt nevoia să vorbească. Anxietatea din interior nu-i face să poată să stea liniștiți, nu-și gestionează bine propriul tumult emoțional. Și atunci acest coping de a vorbi despre..., îi ajută foarte mult să se liniștească. 2. Stilul de atașament evitant- persoanele care au acest stil de atașament sunt persoanele care de obicei sunt mai introverte, necomunicative, care vorbesc mai puțin, care evită foarte mult confruntarea, evită foarte mult comunicarea și mai ales în cadrul conflictului sau post-conflict sunt persoanele care se retrag, simt nevoia să se retragă, simt nevoia să fugă de interacțiunea cu celălalt, fug de propriile emoții, se duc în tot felul de ieșiri, de activități care să îi țină departe de a intra în contact cu acest tumult emoțional. 3. Stilul de atașament securizant- pe care foarte puține persoane, ca și număr, îl au într-un mod natural, așa, din parcursul lor prin viață, să zic. Studiile ne arată că majoritatea oamenilor, tocmai datorită acestui istoric de viață, au stiluri de atașament anxios sau evitant . În schimb, foarte multe persoane care merg în terapie și care fac un proces terapeutic complet ajung să își dezvolte și să schimbe acest stil de atașament într-unul securizant, care este modul de comportament adult din punct de vedere psihologic, de comunicare, de gândire, de a simți și de a se comporta.", mai spune psihoterapeutul Bianca Pescaru, care continuă: "În istoria noastră de copii, cu toții am avut povești care n-au fost neapărat ceea ce ar fi trebuit să fie. Cu toții am suferit când am fost copii, am fost răniți în acel mediu în care am trăit, am trăit niște evenimente adverse și lucrurile acestea și-au pus amprenta într-un mod definitoriu asupra noastră ca ființe umane. Și, în funcție de istoriile de viață pe care noi le-am trăit, fiecare dintre noi am proiectat în psihicul nostru un IMAGO, spunem noi, specialiștii, adică un șablon al familiarului pentru creierul nostru. Și fiecare dintre noi avem acest IMAGO vis-a-vis de un partener. Ce căutăm noi la un partener de cuplu și când ajungem să ne îndrăgostim, practic, noi găsim acest IMAGO, găsim în partenerul nostru acest șablon care conține, evident, foarte multe informații, majoritatea sunt în mintea noastră inconștientă. Și, ce se întâmplă în relațiile de cuplu în general, asta este lucrul care se întâmplă cel mai adesea într-un mod inconștient, evident, proiectăm în partenerul nostru lucrurile neîmplinite, nevoile neîmplinite pe care le-am avut în istoria noastră de copii, deci așteptările. Avem niște așteptări, evident nerealiste. Și avem aceste așteptări ca partenerul nostru să fie părintele ideal pe care nu l-am avut în propria noastră copilărie.", explică psiholog Bianca Pescaru. Partenerul nostru nu este părintele nostru, punctează psihologul. "Deci noi, în mod sănătos, suntem niște adulți care ar trebui să știm să avem grijă de propriile noastre nevoi, în primul rând noi, și apoi să avem niște pretenții de la partenerul nostru. Însă, adesea, relaționăm în relația de cuplu cu părțile imature din ființa noastră. Noi avem mai multe subidentități, avem părțile astea de copil interior, părțile copilului care am fost cândva. Și atunci, ne simțim într-un mod familiar, așa cum ne-am simțit în copilărie, în anumite momente, la anumite triggere, la anumite situații și, evident, începe această dinamică care este nesănătoasă și imatură. Pe de altă parte, partenerul nostru de cuplu este și el o persoană care nu este o persoană perfectă, este o persoană care are propriile istorii de viață și propriile răni, propriile umbre, așa cum spunem noi în psihologie, drept urmare, nu poate să ne satisfacă tot timpul dorințele. În cadrul cuplului"., mai spune Bianca Pescaru.

Noi credem cu tărie că un mesaj în care Evanghelia si Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu sunt centrale şi expuse autentic, are impact în viaţa ascultătorului.Aşadar, fie că eşti membru într-o biserică sau auzi pentru prima dată un mesaj de genul acesta, avem încredinţarea că dacă-l vei asculta cu seriozitate va fi benefic pentru viaţa ta.Credem cu tărie că Dumnezeul Triunic s-a revelat personal în Scripturi şi deasemena credem că a revelat omului planul Său cu privire la creaţie.De aceea încercăm, în măsura în care am fost înzestraţi de Duhul Sfânt, să transmitem mesaje fidele Scripturii, care afirmă despre ea însăşi, că este singura autoritate, suficientă pentru orice aspect important al vieţii omului. 2Timotei 3:15-17Suntem o comunitate de oameni obişnuiţi, păcătoşi şi imperfecţi dar care prin Harul Lui Dumnezeu, jertfa substitutivă a Domnului Isus de la cruce şi lucrarea tainică a naşterii din nou făcută de Duhul Sfânt, personal în fiecare dintre noi, am fost salvaţi, regeneraţi şi sfinţiţi.Credem deasemenea că suntem făpturi noi locuite şi abilitate de Duhul Sfant să trăiască o viaţă de sfinţenie pentru Gloria Lui Dumnezeu, având onoarea şi responsabilitatea să fim angrenaţi activ în lucrarea de răscumpărare a Lui Dumnezeu.Noi nu pretindem mesaje infailibile, dar pretindem că Biblia este infailibilă; Nu pretindem că avem monopolul Adevărului, dar pretindem că Hristos este "Calea, Adevărul şi Viaţa".De aceea scopul nostru nu este să te inducem în eroare sau să te amăgim, nici să spunem doar ceea ce vrei să auzi, ci este să expunem clar Cuvântul Lui Dumnezeu pentru ca Acesta să producă Credinţă autentică în viaţa omului şi să dea direcţie celor aflaţi deja pe calea sfinţeniei.Știm şi recunoaștem că suntem într-un proces de învățare continuă, astfel identificăm slăbiciuni în ceea ce privește expunerea Cuvântului lui Dumnezeu, pe care cu ajutorul Duhului Sfânt vom incerca să le diminuăm, dar în ciuda acestui neajuns universal valabil tuturor lucrătorilor de pretutindeni, avem certitudinea că preluate de Duhul Sfânt, mesajele noastre bine intenţionate vor fi de folos pentru o lucrare destoinică.Aşa că frate/soră sau prieten/ă drag/ă, dacă asculţi acest mesaj, te rog să inţelegi că Dumnezeu în providenţa Lui a decis să-l asculţi, intr-un scop pe care-L are cu tine personal, dar cu un beneficiu reciproc, probabil spre mântuire, pocăinţă, încurajare, zidire, mustrare, corectare, învăţare.Te încurajăm să ne contactezi (bisericaradiant.ro/) şi să ne spui cum ţi-a vorbit acest mesaj.
Comisia parlamentară ”România fără violenţă domestică” este un laborator de soluții, declară într-un interviu la RFI președinta comisiei, Alina Gorghiu. Deputata PNL propune mai multe modificări ale legislației, în așa fel încât femeile să fie mai protejate. O discuție pe larg la RFI despre problema femicidului în România. Alina Gorghiu, despre femicid: ”Până acum, în România, ideea de femicid era tratată ca pe o situație de familie, ca pe o dramă de familie, ca pe o crimă pasională și nu ca o problemă de securitate publică în România. De astăzi, această realitate cât se poate de neplăcută are un nume”. Despre pedeapsa pentru femicid: ”Pedeapsa este cea pentru omor calificat, până la 20 de ani sau pedeapsa cu închisoarea pe viață (...). O perspectivă importantă și a comisiei pe care o conduc și introdusă în legea cu femicidul este partea de educație. Educația de gen în școli, în care vom introduce nevoia de a respecta femeia, de a-ți respecta partenera, colega, e un lucru foarte important. Noi la prevenție va trebui să lucrăm. Avem pârghii în România să protejăm victimele, cu toptanul, sunt foarte multe legi, foarte multe prevederi. Monitorizarea aplicării lor este de multe ori deficitară. Cunoașterea acestor pârghii prin care ne putem proteja nu este la nivelul pe care mi-l doresc”. Despre victimele femicidului: ”Sunt 47 de femei ucise de parteneri în România (în 2025-n.r.). Asta înseamnă de fapt femicid, asta înseamnă apogeul unui șir întreg de violențe, de control, de dominație, de constrângere psihologică. Cifrele pentru mine sunt reci. În spatele cifrelor sunt oameni”.
Viitorul este posibil doar în măsura în care creștem și ne dezvoltăm. Paradoxal vorbind, suntem condamnați să creștem. Tot ce stă pe loc moare. Viața e mișcare, evoluție, creștere. Asta face și universul în care trăim. E finit în alcătuirea lui fizică, dar crește la infinit. Da, nu e cum am învățat la școală, unde ni s-a spus că universul este infinit. Nu, universul este finit, dar crește la infinit. Asta ne spun fizicienii care au luat premiul Nobel în ultimii ani. Iar noi, oamenii, suntem o replică la scară umană a acestui univers care e viu în măsura în care se expandează. Omul este viu în măsura în care crește, iar creșterea lui depinde de viteza cu care face lucrurile. Cu cât ești mai rapid, cu atât te dezvolți mai repede. Cuvântul viteză (speed, pe engleză) vine din rădăcina proto-indoeuropeană „speh”, care înseamnă „prosperitate”. Devii prosper, adică poți crește, în măsura în care te miști repede, în măsura în care ai viteză. Am invitat astăzi la „Noi venim din viitor” o doamnă care cu asta se ocupă: să găsească soluții pentru viteza cea mai mare la care putem trimite ceva dintr-un loc în altul. Este vorba, evident, de compania DHL, care are în ADN-ul ei viteza de deplasare cea mai mare a unui pachet dintr-un loc al planetei la celălalt capăt al ei.

Liturgia della Settimana - Il Commento e il Vangelo del giorno
La festa di Tutti i Santi è una giornata di gioia, di speranza, di fede. Noi viviamo per tutto l’anno la comunione dei santi: li sentiamo a noi vicini, ci sono proposti e li riconosciamo come modelli di vita, li invochiamo come nostri intercessori, li festeggiamo nel giorno della loro nascita al Cielo. I loro nomi sono indicati nel calendario liturgico, ma ne ricordiamo solo una minima parte, alcuni dei tanti e tante che sono stati canonizzati dalla Chiesa. Oggi si unisce a noi e noi a essa quella schiera che nessuno sa contare e che è immersa ormai nella luce di Dio, che ha raggiunto la mèta e ci ha preceduto nel regno dei beati: li celebriamo tutti in un’unica festa e ritroviamo così anche i nostri cari, anche quei santi nascosti agli occhi degli uomini, ma luminosi a quelli del Signore. La qualifica che li accomuna tutti è la fedeltà, anche eroica, testimoniata a Dio e ai fratelli: fedeltà a Gesù Cristo, fedeltà al suo Vangelo, fedeltà alle promesse battesimali, fedeltà alla Chiesa. Tutti hanno fatto esperienza dell’amore di Dio, tutti sono stati lavati e mondati dalla sua misericordia, tutti hanno vissuto le beatitudini evangeliche e non si sono lasciati sedurre dalle attrattive del mondo e dalle seduzioni del maligno. Hanno combattuto la buona battaglia, hanno terminato la corsa, hanno conservato la fede: ora è riservata loro una corona di gloria. Mirabilmente, la storia degli uomini, i percorsi umani, l’agire e il pensare di ognuno si fondono con il volere di Dio, e così sgorga la santità, così si adempie un progetto di amore pensato, proposto e vissuto. È giusto, vero e salutare che tutto questo diventi motivo di festa e di gioia per noi: tocchiamo con mano la “pienezza”, la “verità”, il culmine oltre il quale non siamo in grado di aspirare e di salire. Sentiamo più vicino l’approdo, la meta già percorsa da tanti; la sentiamo faticosa, ma accessibile. “Se tanti e tante, perché non io?” diceva Sant’Agostino. Aspirare alla santità è proprio di ogni cristiano: ognuno di noi ha il dovere di realizzare il progetto che Dio ha su di sé. Tutti dobbiamo adempiere il precetto di Gesù: “Siate perfetti come perfetto è il Padre mio che è nei cieli” e il comandamento divino: “Siate santi, perché Io sono Santo”. I festeggiati di oggi sono i nostri alleati, i nostri collaboratori e ci infondono fiducia.
Dave Riess explains how commercial property owners can turn rooftops into revenue using WonderPower's solar systems to increase NOI and hedge energy costs.In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss sits down with Dave Riess, CEO and co-founder of WonderPower (WunderPower.com), to discuss how commercial real estate owners can generate new income and protect against rising electricity costs using rooftop solar.Dave shares his journey from electrical engineer to energy entrepreneur and breaks down why commercial solar is one of the most underutilized opportunities in real estate.

IZBÂNDA VINE DE LA DOMNUL! „Eu le-am răspuns: „Dumnezeul cerurilor ne va da izbânda. Noi, robii Săi, ne vom scula şi vom zidi...” (Neemia 2:20)
În România, zeci de mii de oameni apți de muncă trăiesc în afara pieței muncii. Nu pentru că nu vor să lucreze, ci pentru că nu reușesc să se integreze sau să-și găsească jobul potrivit. Unii se confruntă cu probleme de sănătate sau cu dizabilități. Alții cu lipsa educației. Alții trăiesc în sărăcie extremă sau în comunități izolate. Unii au fost condamnați la diverse pedepse cu închisoarea și nu mai vrea nimeni să-i angajeze. Alții sînt discriminați din motive etnice ori religioase. Integrarea acestor persoane vulnerabile nu e un proces simplu, ci un demers care presupune eforturi din partea angajatorilor, a societății și a viitorilor angajați. De cele mai multe ori, e nevoie de timp, de răbdare și de o rețea solidă de sprijin. Ce înseamnă, concret, acest proces de integrare? Am întrebat-o pe pe Lorita Constantinescu, director de dezvoltare al Asociației Ateliere Fără Frontiere, care se ocupă cu reintegrarea socio-profesională a persoanelor vulnerabile.Lorita Constantinescu: „Să ai un loc de muncă, în care să stai opt ore şi să respecţi o anumită disciplină este foarte greu pentru persoanele despre care vorbim şi pe care noi le ajutăm. Primul lucru important pe care noi îl facem pentru aceste persoane este să-i ajutăm să deprindă disciplina locului de muncă. Pentru mulţi dintre cei din această categorie – în care nu au ajuns, poate, din cauza lor, ci a contextului în care au trăit – este dificil să înveţe ce înseamnă să vii la ora 8 la muncă, ce trebuie să faci dacă nu poţi veni, lucruri care nouă ni se par simple. Pentru ei nu este simplu. Mulţi dintre ei lucrează cu ziua sau pe piaţa gri, în care această disciplină este mai mult sau mai puţin respectată. Noi vrem să-i învăţăm disciplina muncii, ce înseamnă să ai un loc de muncă stabil, cu contract de muncă şi care să-ţi dea, pe de-o parte, încredere în tine că poţi să ai o viaţă independentă şi poţi fi alături de familie sau de cei pe care-i sprijini şi, pe de altă parte, să ai şi un viitor.”Ce povești de succes aveți?Lorita Constantinescu: „Rata de succes, de integrare pe piaţa muncii este între 50%-60%. Este o rată bună, avînd în vedere că problematica e destul de complicată. Avem un fost coleg care lucrează într-un restaurant din Bucureşti de zece ani. Uneori îl invităm ca speaker la evenimente cu colegii noştri dar şi cu companiile, ca să dea exemplul personal. Este angajat în restaurant la bucătărie pentru diverse munci, la curăţenie, la spălatul vaselor. Este o persoană care a rezistat la locul de muncă. Munca într-un restaurant este cu presiune mare, cu stres mare, dar el a reuşit.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!

Noi credem cu tărie că un mesaj în care Evanghelia si Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu sunt centrale şi expuse autentic, are impact în viaţa ascultătorului.Aşadar, fie că eşti membru într-o biserică sau auzi pentru prima dată un mesaj de genul acesta, avem încredinţarea că dacă-l vei asculta cu seriozitate va fi benefic pentru viaţa ta.Credem cu tărie că Dumnezeul Triunic s-a revelat personal în Scripturi şi deasemena credem că a revelat omului planul Său cu privire la creaţie.De aceea încercăm, în măsura în care am fost înzestraţi de Duhul Sfânt, să transmitem mesaje fidele Scripturii, care afirmă despre ea însăşi, că este singura autoritate, suficientă pentru orice aspect important al vieţii omului. 2Timotei 3:15-17Suntem o comunitate de oameni obişnuiţi, păcătoşi şi imperfecţi dar care prin Harul Lui Dumnezeu, jertfa substitutivă a Domnului Isus de la cruce şi lucrarea tainică a naşterii din nou făcută de Duhul Sfânt, personal în fiecare dintre noi, am fost salvaţi, regeneraţi şi sfinţiţi.Credem deasemenea că suntem făpturi noi locuite şi abilitate de Duhul Sfant să trăiască o viaţă de sfinţenie pentru Gloria Lui Dumnezeu, având onoarea şi responsabilitatea să fim angrenaţi activ în lucrarea de răscumpărare a Lui Dumnezeu.Noi nu pretindem mesaje infailibile, dar pretindem că Biblia este infailibilă; Nu pretindem că avem monopolul Adevărului, dar pretindem că Hristos este "Calea, Adevărul şi Viaţa".De aceea scopul nostru nu este să te inducem în eroare sau să te amăgim, nici să spunem doar ceea ce vrei să auzi, ci este să expunem clar Cuvântul Lui Dumnezeu pentru ca Acesta să producă Credinţă autentică în viaţa omului şi să dea direcţie celor aflaţi deja pe calea sfinţeniei.Știm şi recunoaștem că suntem într-un proces de învățare continuă, astfel identificăm slăbiciuni în ceea ce privește expunerea Cuvântului lui Dumnezeu, pe care cu ajutorul Duhului Sfânt vom incerca să le diminuăm, dar în ciuda acestui neajuns universal valabil tuturor lucrătorilor de pretutindeni, avem certitudinea că preluate de Duhul Sfânt, mesajele noastre bine intenţionate vor fi de folos pentru o lucrare destoinică.Aşa că frate/soră sau prieten/ă drag/ă, dacă asculţi acest mesaj, te rog să inţelegi că Dumnezeu în providenţa Lui a decis să-l asculţi, intr-un scop pe care-L are cu tine personal, dar cu un beneficiu reciproc, probabil spre mântuire, pocăinţă, încurajare, zidire, mustrare, corectare, învăţare.Te încurajăm să ne contactezi (bisericaradiant.ro/) şi să ne spui cum ţi-a vorbit acest mesaj.

Iniziamo la puntata con il piatto principale: nel pomeriggio di ieri il Napoli ha battuto l'Inter 3-1 al Maradona e si è preso la vetta della classifica. Grandi polemiche nel post gara per il rigore dell'1-0 concesso agli Azzurri e botta e risposta in sala stampa tra Marotta e Conte. Con Gianpaolo Calvarese andiamo ad analizzare l'episodio in questione.Il resto del weekend ha detto però molto altro: l'Atalanta fermata a Cremona, prima ancora il Milan bloccato dal Pisa a San Siro, e poi la Roma capolista (insieme al Napoli) dopo la vittoria in casa del Sassuolo. Noi ne parliamo con Sandro Sabatini.A seguire, antipasto di motori con la MotoGP e con Carlo Pernat che ci racconta cosa è successo nella gara di Sepang: vince Alex Marquez, foratura a 3 giri dalla fine per uno sfortunato Pecco Bagnaia.Torniamo al calcio con il big match di giornata in programma stasera, alle 20,45, all'Olimpico. La Lazio va a caccia di un successo per risalire la classifica, la Juve ha bisogno di tre punti che mancano da più di un mese. Sentiamo cosa ne pensano Guido Vaciago e Stefano Pantano.Con Stefano Pescosolido ci trasferiamo poi a Vienna per parlare di tennis e della finale dell'ATP 500, vinta da Sinner contro Zverev.In coda la Formula 1: Umberto Zapelloni ci spiega cosa aspettarci dal GP del Messico di stasera, con la pole di Norris e un ottimo piazzamento per Leclerc e Hamilton, rispettivamente secondo e terzo.
Opinie: Ce vrea Sorin Grindeanu? Controlul Justiției? (DW) - Cu ce tinichele de coadă candidează Marcel Ciolacu la CJ Buzău: scandalul cu jeturile private Nordis, farmaciile și fotovoltaicele nepotului, afacerile protejatei, deficitul-record (G4Media) - Cum a fost construită Catedrala Națională. Interviu cu arhitectul celei mai mari catedrale ortodoxe din lume (HotNews) Bolojan: Eu pot să plec mâine. Dar să mi se spună care sunt soluţiile geniale, care corectează lucruri şi nu deranjează pe nimeni (News.ro) Premierul Ilie Bolojan afirmă că poate în orice moment să renunţe la funcţie, dar solicită să i se spună care sunt ”soluţiile geniale” prin care deficitul bugetar poate fi corectat, scrie News.ro. ”Orice partid consideră că Guvernul nu-şi face datoria are posibilitatea să depună moţiuni de cenzură şi să facă o majoritate în Parlament, în aşa fel încât, cu AUR, cu cine se poate, ca Guvernul să plece”, adaugă prim-ministrul. ”În administraţia locală din România, în majoritatea unităţilor administrative, cheltuielile de personal reprezintă între 60 şi 90%. Dacă vrei să faci ceva reduceri din total cheltuieli şi nu vrei să te atingi de personal, foarte bine, te duci la diferenţa care este foarte mică. Ce înseamnă asta? Înseamnă cheltuielile cu încălzirea şcolilor, cu iluminatul public. Asta vrem să facem? ”. Ilie Bolojan a anunţat că va ”insista şi pe partea de reduceri administrative” în administraţia centrală. Joi seară, la Antena 3, Bolojan a mai spus că declaraţiile contradictorii în interiorul coaliţiei aflate la guvernare au legătură cu încrederea oamenilor. INTERVIU Theodor Paleologu: „E foarte plauzibilă o alianță PSD–AUR. Au foarte multe lucruri în comun” (Adevărul) Prevalența teoriilor conspirației și ascensiunea extremismului reprezintă fenomene îngrijorătoare în societatea românească contemporană, potrivit analizei lui Theodor Paleologu. În Interviurile Adevărul, fostul ministru al Culturii a abordat aceste teme, subliniind impactul lor asupra climatului politic și social. Opinie: Ce vrea Sorin Grindeanu? Controlul Justiției? (DW) Mizele conflictului din coaliția de guvernământ au legătură cu decredibilizarea premierului Ilie Bolojan, cu o restaurație similară celei din perioada Dragnea, cu bătălia pentru controlul instanțelor și parchetelor, avertizează jurnalista Sabina Fati, corespondent DW. Sorin Grindeanu are ambiții mai mari, vrea să fie ales, la Congresul din 7 noiembrie, președinte plin al PSD. Pentru a ajunge acolo, trebuie să-și protejeze oamenii mai bine decât a făcut-o în 2017 (când a adoptat Ordonanța 13, care anula infracțiunea de neglijență în serviciu, introducea pragul de 200.000 de lei pentru existența infracțiunii de abuz în serviciu și anula ideea de favorizare a făptuitorului în cazul în care un membru de familie îl proteja pe un altul. Sub presiunea străzii a renunțat în final la aceste idealuri pro-corupție). Miza e în continuare controlul asupra Justiției. Ministrul de resort, Radu Marinescu, este omul trimis de primărița Craiovei, Olguța Vasilescu, devenită una din cele mai puternice figuri din partid. Ministrul Justiției este omul cheie din guvern care îi propune președintelui întreaga elită a parchetelor: procurorul general, procurorul șef al DNA și adjuncții lui, șeful Direcției de Investigare a Infracțiunilor de Criminalitate Organizată și Terorism (DIICOT) și adjuncții lui, plus șefii de secții. Anul viitor se fac noi propuneri. PSD vrea să controleze cât mai mult din această mare felie a magistraților, așa că încearcă să-i ajute, pentru ca, la rândul lor, să fie ajutat. Înalta Curte a făcut deja câțiva pași prietenoși spre PSD, în dosare importante, iar după respingerea legii la CCR, cei mai mulți procurori și judecători au ieșit din greva în care intraseră la sfârșitul lunii august. Cu ce tinichele de coadă candidează Marcel Ciolacu la CJ Buzău: scandalul cu jeturile private Nordis, farmaciile și fotovoltaicele nepotului, afacerile protejatei, deficitul-record (G4Media) Marcel Ciolacu are o șansă mare să câștige în sfârșit la vot pe persoană fizică la CJ Buzău. Fostul premier PSD părea anulat politic de înfrângerea de la prezidențiale, de blatul cu George Simion, de scandalurile de corupție și de cel mai mare deficit bugetar din UE. Spre deosebire însă de colegii de coaliție Klaus Iohannis și Nicolae Ciucă, Ciolacu vrea cu orice preț să revină în prim-plan. Nu am văzut până acum la fostul premier nici un gest de regret ori penitență pentru la dezastrul politic și bugetar din 2024. Doar declarații care sfidează bunul simț. Ciolacu e în pole-position la alegerile din 7 decembrie pentru că nici un alt partid important nu și-a anunțat un candidat la șefia Consiliului Județean Buzău, un județ oricum dominat copios de PSD, care are 76% din primari. În plus, el a negociat în ultimele săptămâni cu mai multe figuri relevante din județ pentru a se asigura de susținerea lor sau măcar de non-combat, potrivit informațiilor G4Media. Iar sâmbătă, Ciolacu vrea să își asigure la o mare conferință de partid sprijinul primarilor PSD din județ. VIDEO „Patriarhia a aplicat un sistem privind bugetul cu care noi nu eram obișnuiți”. Cum a fost construită Catedrala Națională. Interviu cu arhitectul celei mai mari catedrale ortodoxe din lume (HotNews) „Un manager de proiect elvețian m-a întrebat: «de ce vă trebuie o biserică atât de mare? În Elveția toate catedralele noastre sunt goale»”, povestește, într-un interviu pentru publicul HotNews, arhitectul Constantin Amâiei, cel care s-a ocupat de proiectul Catedralei Naționale. Cu câteva zile înainte de inaugurarea construcției monumentale începute în 2010, Constantin Amâiei dezvăluie detalii neștiute despre lucrările ale căror costuri se ridicau la începutul acestui an la 270 milioane de euro, potrivit Patriarhiei. „Am avut și critici de la colegi arhitecți care spuneau că trebuia să facem o catedrală din secolul 21 cu sticlă și metal. Noi a considerat că e mai bine să fie o catedrală tradițională pentru că noi, ortodocșii, avem în mentalul colectiv o anumită formă a bisericii. Dacă o modificăm, nu o mai recunoaștem”, spune Constantin Amâiei. Constantin Amâiei este din Bacău, membru al Ordinului Arhitecților. Este de asemenea, autorul Catedralei „Înălțarea Domnului” din Bacău. Catedrala Națională sau a „Mântuirii Neamului” va fi inaugurată în 26 octombrie, după mai bine de 15 ani de la începerea lucrărilor. La eveniment va fi prezent și Patriarhul Bartolomeu I al Constantinopolului. De asemenea, sunt așteptați mii de credincioși din toată țara.

Modern energy regulations and rising utility costs are reshaping commercial real estate. In this episode, veteran green-building contractor Robert Pulitzer of Green Street Global explains how owners can tap hidden operational savings, fund deep retrofits with zero out-of-pocket capital, and future-proof assets against tightening decarbonization rules. In This Episode You'll Learn: Where the Money Hides: How utility-bill audits uncover 10-20 % in overcharges and fund the first wave of improvements. The Retrofit Roadmap: Start with the building envelope, then right-size HVAC, lighting, and water systems for 20-40 % lower consumption. Financing That Pays for Itself: Using C-PACE, equipment financing, and shared-savings models to cover 100 % of soft and hard costs. Best-Fit Property Types: Hotels, senior housing, hospitals, industrial facilities, private schools—and any owner-occupied building with high OPEX. Value-Add for the 21st Century: Why lower carbon emissions translate directly into higher NOI, higher valuations, and lower regulatory risk. AI as a Force Multiplier: The everyday tools Robert uses to draft proposals, LOIs, and even legal responses at lightning speed. Key Takeaways: Treat energy efficiency as a profit center, not an expense. A holistic approach—tight envelope → right-sized HVAC → efficient fixtures—delivers the biggest ROI. Shared-savings contracts and tax strategies eliminate upfront capital barriers. Decarbonization mandates are accelerating worldwide; acting now preserves asset value and competitive edge.

I'm Keith Weinhold, and you're listening to get rich education before we talk about, should you be your own landlord or not, and how often do you raise the rent? Let's get more personal. I want to get introspective with you with three questions, do you focus more on what you have or on what's missing? Yeah, and not just as an investor, but in your overall life. Do you focus more on what you have or on what's missing? As for me, it's what's missing, and that might be a shame. I'm definitely grateful for what I have, but probably not grateful enough if you also focus more on what's missing from your life rather than what you have. Maybe you need to be more grateful for what you've got too. But those like me that focus more on what's missing are often accomplishment driven people always trying striving for more. The second question is, do you focus more on your past, present or future. Now we all focus on all three, but which one do you focus on the most? For me, it's the present and then the future after that. The third question that you can ask yourself to learn more about yourself is, do you focus more on what's in your control or out of your control, I focus more on what's in my control. So there you go. Certain combinations of those questions can tell you a lot about yourself. For example, if you answered that, you're most focused on your future and what's out of your control, you could be setting yourself up for some sleepless nights. Oh, gosh, did I lock the car door or really, it's more like, Geez, how is that meeting really going to go tomorrow? I do some of that too fretting too much about the future for things outside your control that won't change your future one bit, but yet, ostensibly, that steals your peace of mind in the present. And I don't know who to attribute those questions to. Who originated them, but I heard Tony Robbins talking about them, and that helps you figure yourself out for some of what we're talking about here on today's show. I want to start off real basically here most first time real estate investors, they find themselves diving into the world of property management with zero experience and tons of uncertainty. You don't have to put management experience on a resume before you hire yourself to manage your own property. Self managing a rental property, it can be daunting in the beginning, but it also offers you some real benefits, like greater control and cost savings and some hands on learning. But self management comes with its own set of challenges, like tenant management and handling maintenance issues, so let's weigh some of those pros and cons of self landlording versus outsourcing it to a professional manager, there are about four key advantages to self managing. I think that most obvious one is the cost savings, because property management companies typically charge eight to 10% of the monthly. Rent amount for their services, along with an additional fee for placing a tenant or renewing a lease, and maybe even a fee for certain maintenance types. By self managing, you can then avoid these fees and keep more of the rental income for yourself and thereby making your investment more profitable. Say that your property is rented for $2,000 a month. That $200 management fee, because that's 10% Well, multiply that by 12, that's $2,400, a year, plus a typical leasing fee when a new tenant is placed is a half months rent. That's $1,000 in this case, now, you're probably not going to have a new tenant placed every single year, but if you did, then that's $3,400 annually to the manager in total, between the management fee and the leasing fee. Another advantage of DIY ing is quality control. Now, I think people that tend to be control freaks, oftentimes have to self manage, and they care a little too much. But when you self manage, you do have direct control over the maintenance and tenant selection and the overall condition of your property, and that is going to ensure that your investment is well maintained and that your tenants are satisfied. Property managers, they often manage multiple properties, so your rental might not get as much attention. And the most common, recurring issue that I hear from investors that use a professional management company is that they don't feel like their property is getting enough attention, or that the property manager doesn't really care that much about them after their contract is signed. And if you think that through, from the property management industry side, you know most managers, they're only making that 100 to 200 bucks of recurring revenue per month on each property they manage, and these are pretty thin margins overall. So in order to run a profitable business and pay their employees and cover their other business expenses, these property managers, they need to onboard hundreds of clients, and in turn, that's going to spread out their efforts pretty thin if you've only got a few properties with a manager. Well, their main priority sometimes ends up being their bigger clients. So the smaller you are, the further down the callback list you might be. But I'll tell you, even staying in touch with my professional managers a little bit, even the ones I only have a few properties with, I feel like I get what I need. A third advantage to managing yourself is better tenant relationships. You've got a level of control that allows you to build relationships with your residents that can lead to longer retention and less of that costly turnover, and having that direct communication that builds some trust, that builds some respect between you and your tenant, they appreciate a landlord like you is probably going to respond quickly to maintenance requests and the fact that you're approachable if an issue comes up, and also, by you being more involved in the tenant screening process, you can ensure that you select a pretty good tenant that's going to stay Long Term and really take care of your property. Another advantage to you self managing is that you do build some valuable skills. I mean, managing a property on your own that teaches you a big range of pretty versatile skills, from like handling maintenance and repairs to negotiating leases and just overall, managing your finances, these can be pretty helpful skills, not just for your rentals, but for your future business ventures. So really, those are some of the upsides of self management. Now, how about the flip side, the challenges of self managing your own rental property? Well, the problem is managing your tenants. I mean, some say that this whole discipline that's called Property Management ought to be called tenant management and handling tenant relations. That's one of the most critical aspects of being a self managing landlord. I mean, even if you try to build tenant relationships, mismanagement that can lead to vacancies or disputes or can even go into legal issues. So educating yourself on landlord tenant laws and best practices, that's pretty essential. If you want to head off problems, you've got proper tenant screening and addressing tenant concerns and ensuring that rent is paid on time. I mean, all that stuff's crucial. Most tenants are pretty reasonable, but you know, there are always going to be a few that will challenge your patients, and it really requires that you be tactful and professional to manage well, managing contractors. I mean, property maintenance, that's another key responsibility you have to. Fine and hire and coordinate contractors for repairs and upkeep and poor contractor management that could lead to cost overruns or really shoddy work and more, knowing how to negotiate contracts and oversee projects that's crucial to maintaining the tenant satisfaction and the overall quality of your property. Another downside of self management is handling emergencies, I mean plumbing leaks or electrical issues, that stuff could happen anytime. And as a self managing landlord, you might not always be available to respond immediately, which can lead to property damage or unhappy tenants. So self managers, they really need to be problem solvers. Self managing a rental property, things go fine 99 plus percent of the time, but it could get emotionally taxing, especially if those tenant relations become a problem. So you got to keep personal feelings out of it, that stuff can cloud your judgment and negatively impact your decisions. If you want to self manage, you've got to maintain professionalism and set clear boundaries and remain objective when you're dealing with tenants and property issues, so creating systems and processes help you minimize those emotionally driven decisions, and can help you ensure consistency in managing approach. And then there is that legal side you ought to keep up on that local area's landlord and tenant law. So in conclusion, on whether to be your own landlord or outsource it to professional management, while these challenges are pretty real, you should still be able to self manage your properties, even remotely, even across state lines or from 1000s of miles away. I mean, most of these worst case scenarios that you hear about, like a flood at 2am I mean that stuff just never happens. I mean, it's never happened to me, even if you don't have previous experience, you really can effectively manage your rental properties and see positive results when you got the right tools and the right mindset. And today's tech tools make remote management easier than it's ever been in human history. But any long time listener knows that I do not manage my own properties. My time is simply too valuable. As a frequent guest on the show here, Robert helm says life is too short for property management, I just feel a personal sense of freedom and autonomy and some headspace clearance by knowing that no tenant can contact me directly yet that my manager is taking care of them. I mean, it's just not worth doing it myself to get that last 2% toward perfection. When you buy in the most investor advantage areas, you should have enough margin to pay for a manager. Keith Weinhold 13:03 All right, well, let's change topics now, and whether you self manage or you outsource it to a pro, you know, you've got to ask, how much and how often should landlords raise the rent? That is the question. Let's say you've crunched the numbers and expenses are climbing like they have these past few years, and the market is shifting and your rent hasn't changed. That really leaves you with one big question, Should you raise the rent? And should you raise it every year? And if you're new to landlording, it can kind of feel complicated. It could feel like if you raise the rent too much, you risk losing a great tenant if you raise it too little or not at all, and you might fall behind on costs then, or even undervalue your property if you don't keep your rents up there, because five plus unit property values are based on the rent, which goes into the NOI your net operating income. And really, this is one of the more common dilemmas that landlords face. But really, the good news is that there's a pretty clear way forward. So let me help you determine when a rent increase makes sense, and then figure out an amount that keeps your unit competitive. It keeps your rental income on track. Now some people, they actually believe that landlords are required to raise the rent every year and to a tenant, it might seem like that's what happens, but no, landlords are not required to raise the rent every year. They often choose to do so to keep up with inflation or stay competitive and high demand markets, and keep up with shifts in local rental trends, gradual, smaller increases can help you avoid the need for making larger jumps later, that stuff can surprise or frustrate your tenant. You want to go for those big rent jumps, but two. 19 tenancies. We've covered that part before. Now, some landlords prefer to keep rent steady, like when they have long term reliable tenants, or they're just focused on building equity over time, and they want to stay hands off, and don't really need the cash flow so much. Now, in a lot of cases, maintaining that same rent amount that sure can reduce your turnover in vacancy costs, those things are your biggest expenses, but often that is not the best approach in the long run, because you probably are a leveraged investor, meaning that you have a loan on the property. Well, then a rent increase that helps you out more than it does for the less educated, paid off free and clear property owner, because you can widen your delta faster. You widen your cash flow faster because your biggest expense, your principal and interest payment, stays fixed. Yes, you are getting leverage on both the asset value overall and the income. Yes, this is winning that third crown of GRE s inflation triple crown. So ultimately deciding how often to raise the rent, that really depends somewhat on your goals and also the condition of the rental. You got to factor in how satisfied you think that your tenant is. That's part of it, and the state of the market as well. Now, if you're unsure what the right rent price is for your area, there are increasingly sophisticated tools for helping you figure that out. Rent finder.ai, can help you. One of my property managers uses it. It's a really cool AI driven report that looks at 25 rent comparables in the area. Again, that tool is rent finder.ai. Speaker 2 16:52 Now, when should landlords raise rent? Finding the right time to do this that helps you stay aligned with the market value all while supporting your financial goals. But there are also times where it might be smarter to hold off on hiking the rent. The most common times that you implement a rent increase are at least renewal. That's really the most common and appropriate time to raise the rent, provided that you give proper notice. You usually got to give 30 to 60 days notice. Another common time to raise the rent are after you make significant upgrades, like installing new appliances or renovating a kitchen or updating flooring. I mean, this is when it might be reasonable to adjust rent to reflect that added value. Another time is when overall market rents are rising, even if you haven't improved the unit or anything, because if rental prices in your area are up, well, then raising your rent helps keep your property in line with local rates. But you got to keep in mind that rent price increases require a well thought out strategy to avoid pushing away good tenants. Another time to increase the rent is to keep up with inflation and expenses over time, especially these last few years, we've all had higher operational costs like higher insurance, higher property taxes, higher maintenance costs. So even a small annual rent increase definitely helps offset those rising expenses, but you have got to avoid basing your rent price solely on operating expenses. When you do raise the rent for this reason, though, let the tenant know just which operating expense rose. That is going to help reduce tenant frustration. Now, on the flip side, there are times when keeping your rent steady could be the better choice, especially if you have a long term reliable tenant. I mean good tenants that pay on time and take care of the property. They are worth retaining, not all times, but sometimes avoiding that rent hike can help you maintain a good relationship. There another time to avoid it is when the rental market is soft. I mean, if there's more competition in your area, or high vacancy rates in your area, well then raising the rent could lead a tenant to look somewhere else, especially if there are vacant properties nearby that they could move into. Another time to not raise the rent is if the property hasn't changed, if you haven't made any of those improvements, sometimes a rent increase might not be justified, or obviously you don't want to raise the rent if you really, really want to avoid a vacancy. So keeping the rent the same might encourage them to renew. So factors to consider before raising the rent and how to calculate an appropriate increase if a unit is aging or needs repairs, raising the rent without improvement that could discourage renewals. So consider creating a value checklist to quantify certain improvements, like new apps. Appliances could be 25 to $50 a month in additional rent, or a renovated kitchen, $75 a month or new HVAC. That could be 30 to $50 a month. Think about neighborhood changes like gentrification or new schools or increased transportation access or nearby commercial development. I mean, all that stuff can raise demand, building a Whole Foods nearby, having a new office space with high wages nearby, that can increase your rent. Look at City Planning announcements and local news. You can help stay ahead of the trends that way, and if your neighborhood has seen a rise in new businesses or housing demand. I mean, that is justification for a moderate increase and a modest annual rent increase tied to inflation that can help offset your rise in costs. You can reference the CPI, yeah, the BLS. They don't just report national inflation, but they do this by region as well. Now, is there a limit to the amount of your rent increase? Well, depending on where your property is located, there might be legal limits to how much you can raise the rent, and they're typically defined by state and local rent control laws that can vary a lot across the US, in cities or states with rent control, or what's called rent stabilization, there are strict caps on how much you can raise the rent annually. And those caps, they're often based on the local CPI. They might range from 2% per year to 10% a year, depending on the area and if your rental property is in a place without rent control, well, then there might not be any legal limit on how much you can raise the rent really. That's sort of situation normal. So you do have to look at those local laws. Of course, here at GRE we recommend buying and owning properties outside of any rent control jurisdictions, which are often those places in big Northeastern cities or on the west coast where they have rent control. Well, your success as an investor, it has a lot to do with how much of your money you are leveraging, but funds that are leveraged into property that you own directly, they're not very liquid. Any prudent investor keeps a liquidity bucket of funds, and for me personally, I don't keep many of them in these online only savings accounts that might yield a 3% or 4% return today, because that is simply too low. What I do with my liquid funds is I get a return that's more than twice that amount. Where I am not the landlord, I'm the LEND Lord. Yes, l, e, n, d, lendlord, I'll tell you how to increase your income that way. That's next. I'm Keith Weinhold. You're listening to get rich education. Keith Weinhold 23:03 The same place where I get my own mortgage loans is where you can get yours. Ridge lending group and MLS, 42056, they provided our listeners with more loans than anyone because they specialize in income properties. They help you build a long term plan for growing your real estate empire with leverage, start your pre qual and even chat with President Chaley Ridge personally. While it's on your mind, start at Ridge lendinggroup.com. That's Ridge lendinggroup.com. Keith Weinhold 23:34 You know what's crazy your bank is getting rich off of you. The average savings account pays less than 1% it's like laughable. Meanwhile, if your money isn't making at least 4% you're losing to inflation. That's why I started putting my own money into the FFI liquidity fund. It's super simple. Your cash can pull in up to 8% returns, and it compounds. It's not some high risk gamble like digital or AI stock trading. It's pretty low risk because they've got a 10 plus year track record of paying investors on time in full every time. I mean, I wouldn't be talking about it if I wasn't invested myself. You can invest as little as 25k and you keep earning until you decide you want your money back, no weird lockups or anything like that.

Speaker 2 25:06 If you love the income from rentals but you don't like the vetting and the tracking and the tenant calls, this episode is for you. I've openly shared with you before that I don't keep much money in a savings account, since the returns are often lower than true inflation today, it's about where I invest my own funds that I want to keep fairly liquid yet get a strong return. We're talking to who owns and runs those very funds that I'm personally invested in. She co founded freedom family investments. They're a firm with over $50 million in assets under management, and they have a 100% track record of investor payouts to those investors that include me. After building her own wealth through real estate, she made it her mission to help investors create freedom, safety and peace of mind in their portfolios. She specializes in turning hands on real estate strategies like turnkey rentals into relatively passive, scalable income. It has real estate backed returns that get fairly high. You'll see how high today. She's got a great plain English approach and focus on recession resilient, needs based assets that have earned her repeat invitations to get rich, education and other top real estate shows she and her husband flip also co wrote a great book called Get real, which I have on my bookshelf. Hey, it's great to have you back on GRE Danny Lynn Robison Dani-Lynn Robison 26:30 thank you so much, Keith. I'm so excited to be here Speaker 2 26:33 Danni, We'll discuss rates of return for the investor shortly, but first, I think that any prudent investor asks about that foundation, what is the investment backed by? What are the underlying assets? Tell us about that. Dani-Lynn Robison 26:48 So that's really important to me as well. And real estate is my love and passion. So this is a fund that is based on recession resilient needs based real estate. What that means is we're really focused on the needs over economies, down economies, no matter what is going on the market, is there demand? Is there enough demand that the cash flow is going to continue on? And so our asset classes inside this fund are multifamily housing and then senior housing build to rent and self storage. And by concentrating on all of those, we're just staying aligned with the fundamental needs of American families, which is why we're freedom family investments, Keith Weinhold 27:26 right? Okay, so, yeah, pretty staid, stable underlying assets there, like you say, these are needs based items, items that people need. And tell us more about how the investment is structured for that investor, and these investors like me, looking for predictable, passive income. Dani-Lynn Robison 27:46 This is something that's really important to me. I'm always talking to our investors and finding out what's important to them. What are they investing in right now? How do they feel about the market? What's important to them? And out of that has come every single fund or offering that we have created. And so what I love about this one is it combines a whole bunch of things all into one place. So this fund, the way it's structured, provides diversification, because as a private money lender, you are lending on one asset, so you're dependent on that one asset actually performing and being able to pay you back. Now, as you said at the beginning of the episode, we have a 100% payout track record, and that's because I think my very first episode with you was about private money lending, and I told this story about this duplex where we lost, I want to say, over $50,000 and I talked about the importance of investor relationships to me, and that long term relationship means more to me than anything else, because if you don't Have trust, then you don't have anything, you don't have a business, you don't have you can't grow long term. So even though we had lost so much money on that duplex and made a lot of mistakes, the investor got their full principal paid back. They got every penny of interest during the time that they were owed. And that Testament has happened over and over again, and it's also why I've always preached volume, because deals like that in real estate, it's going to happen in anybody who tells you otherwise just run, because there's going to be times where you peel back a wall and there's something you know big that you're going to have to take care of, and there's times when contractors aren't going to do what they say they're going to do, and it's going to go over budget. And because of that, volume is important. So if I'm doing 10 deals a month, and two of them go bad. I've got eight that do really, really great. So that's the diversification piece that is so important to me, and therefore also important to my investors. Because we've talked about that, we've talked about those conversations. So in the fund, being balanced and diversified across those four asset classes ensures that no matter where the market is and what we're investing in, some of them could be doing really good, while some of them may not be doing as good, and we're just evening out and protecting ourselves and our investors with that separate asset classes and multiple doors. Then the other thing about that I've heard loud and clear is liquidity. And you and I were talking about this right before we pressed record, and I. Always laughed, and I was like, liquidity and real estate just don't go together. So let me figure this out. And we worked with our attorneys and figured out different ways to provide liquidity to real estate investors while still protecting just the way everything was structured, because that promise and making sure that I'm always giving that money back to the investors and paying them on time every single time, was so important, we structured a fund that allows people to invest and then get their money back in a year if they want it, but if they don't, then they get to continue investing for a period of time. And so that marriage and balance has really been a win for us and for our investors. And so I'm really excited about this fund. Keith Weinhold 30:37 Danny Lynn, it's a little sad before our chat today, we learned about another industry professional that offered a fund to investors, and that fund imploded, for lack of a better term, and you divulged with me that you're actually familiar with that fund and with that operator that offered it. And you know you talked about how there were really some red flags, some warning signs, there, you have third party eyes on your fund for its lifespan, from beginning to end and here in the present. And the other thing is that you invest the funds in your own businesses, so you have more control over that when you talk about these four different asset types that you're involved in. So can you talk to us about that? Dani-Lynn Robison 31:25 I've been in the room with him. I don't know him personally. We're not friends or anything, but I know him, and I know what happened as that fund progressed. And when I looked at the fund structure, I love the promissory note idea, because it's simple to understand. There's a warren buffett quote I love talking about that you shouldn't invest in something you don't understand. And I believe in simplicity. I believe in making sure that you understand exactly what you're getting into when you're putting your money on the line. And in that particular fund, it was very hard to understand the assets that you're investing in. And so it was a lot of businesses I would view them as high risk. I felt like even the monthly distributions were a little risky as well, because sometimes you just don't know if the money is going to be coming in. You know, you might be in a building phase where you actually need the capital to work on and grow and improve the business or the real estate. And so we always structure things in a way that we do two tiers. There's an income track and there's a growth track to allow us to balance everything out and be able to give the investors a lower rate of return if they want income, and a higher rate of return if they want growth, because that higher rate of return we can do that because they are allowing us to use that capital to be able to work on properties, to work on businesses have that growth trajectory, and when it comes to our businesses, I'm glad you brought that up, because he did invest in businesses, and I don't historically do that. I love real estate, but I do invest in my own businesses, because I know me. I know my character, I know my track record. I know what I promise I'm going to do, no matter how hard it is. I'm going to make sure that I fulfill those promises. And so if I have like, ownership and direct control of everything, I feel very confident in my ability to move forward. And that's really where the masternote program comes in, we now call it freedom notes, because we just love freedom so much we're just rebranding everything. So the freedom note program really does help us invest in businesses as we're growing, and it's our own businesses so super excited about that opportunity. Structured the exact same way as the flagship fund. Keith Weinhold 33:16 You use the term promissory note there, just so that no investor is left behind. What is a promissory note? Dani-Lynn Robison 33:23 A promissory note is really like an IOU. So I always like to compare it to bank loans. Whenever our private money lenders would come and talk to us about private money lending, and they'd say, can you explain this to me? I'd say your Bank of America like you're the one with the lien on the property, so you're in first lien position, and so if something goes wrong, then you have the ability to foreclose and get that property back. So promissory notes, essentially is a loan to this fund, and this fund is then going to use that money to purchase or acquire or invest in or do recapitalizations of those projects that we talked about. So in the flagship fund, those four asset classes, masternodes, so the freedom notes also invest in those same asset classes, but they also invest in the businesses as well. Keith Weinhold 34:09 So we're talking about predictable passive income for the investor here, about as close to passive as it gets, hands off management. You've got the professional underwriting, the servicing and the reporting done by a third party you actually use invest next, that's the third party company that administers this. Tell us more about the investor qualifications, about the minimum investment amount and accredited versus non accredited. Tell us about that. Dani-Lynn Robison 34:38 We have programs for both non accredited and accredited investors, and like I said, they're set up structurally very, very similar, but they are it's has to be SEC compliant, right? So for the non accredited investors, it is the freedom note program, and it's set up so your funds are in a separate bank account all by itself. It's fully tracked that way by our accounting team. And you can always go in and say, Hey, can you guys tell me where my funds are placed? And we can always track that information. So it's a little bit more work on our part, but it does allow non accredited investors to participate in something until they have the opportunity to reach a point where they do meet that accredited status and they can participate in the fund. And then the fund is the accredited vehicle. It's a 506, C, again, fully it's a Regulation D, fully vetted by our attorney. They're just actually finishing the documents right now. I didn't tell you before this, but you're actually the very first group that we're like talking to this about. And I told you how much I love our relationship and how long we've known each other, and how I just want to do more things with you. And so we're like, this is perfect that we get to actually launch it to Keith's group first. So we're excited about that as well. And then you talked about invest next. This is the piece that I think is important to me, no matter who you invest in, is what is their financial transparency look like? How are in the investments tracked? Where are the funds? Who is looking at those funds. So not only are we tracking all of the funds in house, but our CPA has to look at the funds and what's happening there. And originally we had nav, which is a fund manager. Now we've moved over to our invest next, and it probably took us six months to get onboarded with them, because of all the compliance pieces required for a company like that to bring you on board. So I just think that's one of the important pieces that makes me feel safe, because I want a bunch of eyes on the financials, and it makes our investors feel safe as well. Keith Weinhold 36:31 For those wondering why I invest my funds here, yes, you've got that third party auditing, like you've mentioned, and you're investing only in your own businesses, so you have control. That's a big part of what makes me feel good. Well, let's talk about the fun part. Danny, tell us about those rates of return and the liquidity. Dani-Lynn Robison 36:50 The rates of return are anywhere from eight to 14% but the 14% can go up to 16% because there's a 2% bonus upon maturity, and that eight to 16% is in two series. So there's an income series and there's a growth series. The income series is what appeals to investors who want those quarterly distributions and who want the passive income and cash flow. And so that particular series is anywhere from eight to 10% and again, depending on how much you invest, there's a 2% bonus in that series, and then the growth series is even higher. And the reason that is is because these are the long term investors who are looking to really accelerate growth in their portfolio. And that allows us peace of mind that we've got capital to be able to use for the renovations, for whatever is needed, depending on the market and how the cycles are going. As I said before, real estate is illiquid, and you have to structure and balance things based on that. And the growth series is a win for the investors, because compounding on, let me see, it's 10 to 14% returns, plus, depending on how much you invest, there's a 2% bonus that compounding adds up fast. We've done math for our investors are like, Oh my gosh, I'm never moving my money. I love this. They just love to see the growth trajectory. It's a win for us, too, because we get to use that capital as needed in order to ensure that we've got successful investments at the end of the day. Keith Weinhold 38:21 Okay, so the income series has eight to 10% returns based on how much you invest, that pays out quarterly. And then the growth series that has those higher rates of return, up to 14 even 16% where the payout is made at the end, and how long is one waiting until the end? I know it sounds like most people want to continue that compounding and roll it forward, but what does the end look like for the groceries fund? Dani-Lynn Robison 38:47 Yeah, I'm glad you asked that. So that's the liquidity piece, and that's the thing that we went back and forth with our attorneys about, because real estate is naturally illiquid, and so what we did is it's a recurring annual renewal. So it's an auto renewal, meaning that every single year you have the opportunity to say, Hey, Danny, hey freedom, I would like to go ahead and give you notice that I would like to get my funds back. And so that gives us enough notice be able to plan for those funds to come back to you principal plus interest. And then every year, if you choose not to ask for your funds back, it auto renews for a total of five years. I believe it is. You'll have to look at the documents just to confirm everything that I'm saying, because what I'm speaking to is our freedom note program, which is what this was built off of, because it was so popular. When given investment opportunities, everybody was just like, I want to go into those freedom notes. I like those because it gave them peace of mind, the ability to take out their cash if they needed it, but allowed for a compound or fast growth and a long term investment if they felt that was right as well. Keith Weinhold 39:47 Okay, this freedom note program either the income series or the growth series, but we're talking about rates of return here. What's interesting is we're in a period where federal funds rate drops are. Anticipated when that happens, the return on your savings account does fall by that amount. However, these funds don't. That is correct. Yes, we're talking about, again, these funds that are backed by needs based real estate, like senior housing, workforce apartments and self storage demand that stays steady, even in downturns. And I know that you have an investor story as well. Tell us about that. Dani-Lynn Robison 40:28 Yeah. So we have so many investor stories, and you can actually see the videos and audios on our website, and I encourage you to go check them out. But we like to call this investor story Jane, because we've heard the story so often that we call her Jane. So this is really the investors who have been investing with us as private money lenders and turnkey investors. And there they realize that number one, the in and out of investments. As a private money lender means that they always have this capital sitting and earning nothing at some point in time. And the turnkey investors, they think it's passive. And then they realize, oh gosh, there are tenant issues. I do have to, you know, manage this, the property management company. I do have to double check all the financials. I do have to approve a tenant or approve repairs, and it ends up being a little bit more work, and sometimes a lot more work than they ever anticipated. Those investors in particular, are the ones that love working with us the most, because suddenly what they thought was freedom going into the investment opportunity turned out to be a little bit different than they anticipated. And so they're like, I'm so thankful to finally, you know, be in an investment with a company that I trust, but that can be there, give me liquidity options, give me a good return, but it's 100% passive. So we call that investor Jane, because we just hear this story over and over and over Speaker 2 41:45 before I ask about how our listeners can learn more about this, if it might interest them. Is there any last thing that you want to tell the audience? Maybe something that I didn't think about asking you? Dani-Lynn Robison 41:57 That's a great question. The here's the thing that I always like to say, when you're investing with somebody, I think it's important to ask about the worst thing that's happened, what they did, how their investor was treated, what was the financial outcome? I think those questions are people don't think to ask that. Like, when you get on the phone with somebody, everybody's gonna tell you the rosy stories and all the good things, and this is why you should invest. And they're not going to go down the road of like, what happened, like, what are the bad things? Because every business and every real estate investor experiences bad things. So finding out the character of the person, I think, is how you find out is by asking what happened in that worst case scenario. So I think that's a really great question to ask, and you can ask us anytime I transparently tell my horror stories all the time, and just always in saying how important our long term investors are with us. Keith Weinhold 42:46 It's just like the title of your book. Get real. If you don't have a messy story to tell, you probably haven't been in business for very long. Are there any fees in order for one to get started? Dani-Lynn Robison 42:58 No, there are no fees. That's another investor feedback piece is the confusion. It's like they want to invest, but they're so confused by investment opportunities and what they're really making. So when you invest with us, the return that we tell you you're going to get is actually the return that you're going to get. So whether it's, you know, 8% 9% 10% whatever that is, that's the return you'll get. If there's any fees in, uh, within the fund itself, there's none in the freedom notes program. If there's any fees within the fund itself, it comes from the actual underlying properties, not from investor returns. Keith Weinhold 43:31 Well, it doesn't take very much documentation in order to get started. This could really help you make more of the funds that you want to keep more liquid as fast as 90 day liquidity. Danny, tell our audience how they can get started, and if they just want to learn more about this to see if it's right for them, Dani-Lynn Robison 43:50 we have done something super special this time. I think I've been on your podcast probably four or five times. Now this time, I'm going to tell you to go to freedom, family investments.com. Forward, slash, G, R, E, so it stands for get rich, education, so freedom, family, investments.com. Forward, slash GRE, what we've done this time is we're really tailoring what we do to Keith, because this relationship has just been such a great relationship we've had over time that we want to make sure that the investors that come in from your audience are just they rise to the top for our Investor Relations team so that anything that you need, we're just right there for you. We've got an investor concierge, and we're just doing as much as possible to make sure that you guys are prioritized. Speaker 2 44:30 Yeah, feel free to let them know that you learned about this through me, you'll get the VIP treatment. Danny, thanks for being such a responsible custodian of my own funds. For years, it's been great having you back on the show. Dani-Lynn Robison 44:42 Thank you so much, Keith. Keith Weinhold 44:50 Look the key to most anything in business or investing is for you to provide something that's of value to someone. Else. Look for something that makes somebody else money, and then go get a piece of that for yourself. And because this is where I park my own funds for liquidity, I do need something that I can count on, recession resilient needs based real estate assets that people rely on in every economic cycle. So this is backed by, frankly, pretty plain things, with durable demand, limited supply and strong demographic tailwinds. And again, those four underlying assets are multifamily housing, senior housing, build to rent, which are new single family rental communities and self storage, which is something proven to hold up even in recessions. And what makes these funds from Freedom family investments different is that, like we said, they have third party financial eyes on them, and the control is there because the funds are invested in their own companies, and now there's no such thing as a zero risk investment or even a 100% passive investment, but this is about as close to real estate passivity as you can get. There's more of that than there is with direct ownership of turnkey real estate, they'd surveyed investors to find out what they want. That's why you can choose from again, Freedom family investments either their income series, which has eight to 10% returns, but it can be up to 12% at higher investment amounts, you get quarterly distributions, or their other is their growth series, 10 to 14% returns, but it can be up to 16% at higher investment amounts, with the option to have your funds back annually. These are fixed rates of return and a declining interest rate environment like we're in now. Cannot touch those rates of return, I think, for someone that's not in real estate and doesn't understand how real estate pays, five ways, they might find it unusual that an investment can reliably return more than 10% like this. But those that are initiated, they get it. It's pretty simple. I mean, you are going to increase your income $10,000 per year if you invest 100k at a 10% return. If you'd like to learn more and see if it's right for you, it's been made pretty easy. You can do that one of two ways. Text family to 66 866, just text the word family to 66866, yes. This is how you can, rather than a landlord, be a lend Lord with the liquid component of your investments.

I'd say five years or so. because everyone has their own prediction on when the next 2008 might happen. But well, other than the blip caused by the recent global pandemic, we haven't seen that natural correction yet. And who really knows when that will be? Nobody does. But what we have seen are very strong influences that could impact the real estate market in the very near future. And you know what I'm talking about? I'm talking about rising interest rates. I'm talking about a highly inflationary environment that we're all feeling combined with, you know, an under supply that's creating a high demand and skyrocketing prices.

This is the Passive Income Attorney Podcast, where you'll discover the secrets and strategies of to make Start living the good life on your own terms. Now, here's Seth Bradley. the ultra. Seth Bradley (02:57.475) y'all Seth Bradley (03:09.518) Here's your host. Hunter Thompson, what's going on? Rather welcome to the show. Hey, thanks a lot. Our honor to on. Absolutely, man. You're someone I personally look up to a lot and holding high regard in this industry. So super stoked to have you on the show today, man. Thanks again. Absolutely, man. So look, you've been on a ton of podcasts and you know, you're the host of your own successful show, cashflow connections. So I got to ask who's the real Hunter Thompson. and mutual. Hunter Thompson (03:38.894) So, I mean, you know, someone asked me like, if I had to say one word that identify it's entrepreneur man. And I think everyone listens to that. That's probably that speaks to them because anybody listened to the show, they take an entrepreneurial approach to reality and to their lives. Like we were not born passive real estate investors, right? In fact, we had to find this stuff out on our own to a large degree. And A lot of us were kind of taught a lot of myths about investing, you know, save only invest in the stock market. For some reason, dividends can pay off your expenses at some points. Like you have to have a $40 million net worth to do that, you know? And so that feeling of like, man, I may have been lied to about some of the most important things in life kind of inspired me to go down a cool path and, you know, break some rules along the way, but here we are. Nice. I love it, man. So dive in a little bit deeper. Tell us a little bit about your background and your story, and then we'll jump into it. Sure, so I think for a lot of people when they talk about real estate and like their history in the space, 2008 is gonna come up. And that's the same for me. But I was very insulated from that risk. So was in college during 2008, but I saw what took place and I had a background as an entrepreneur and a poker player. And so I wasn't really like investing in the stock market, but when 2008 happened, saw flood was in the streets and I heard the quotes from the billionaires that said, that's when you should be buying. And so I basically went all in on education. I was obsessed with CNBC. Jim Kramer was like the biggest fan of his, just reading everything from Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, all those guys and started to follow financial markets, even dabbled in day trading a bit. And then something happened, started to have success as anybody that did that started in 2008, by the way. But it wasn't really until 2010 that something happened that like completely shifted my perspective. Hunter Thompson (05:33.194) on everything I had learned up until that point. And people don't talk a lot about 2010, but for me, that was the big moment because after all of this research about quote diversification and hey, you got to get Apple and Johnson and Johnson and also some cash and maybe some gold and these types of things out of nowhere, the European debt crisis happened and it created massive challenges with volatility in the US markets. And all of sudden everyone was focusing on some obscure economic data point, which was the Greece bond yields and the German bond yields. And it was like, Hey man, all this research I had done never suggested that something as ridiculous and obscure. I'm talking to every single person on CNBC was watching the German bond yields. And the quote at the time was, if it goes above 7%, the S &P 500 is going to dive. And they were correct. And every day it would go above 7%, below 7%, and the S &P would go up and down and five, like over and over again. And I was like, I've got to find a way that a small firm or myself can conduct due diligence on an asset class that is, the performance is directly tied to supply and demand, not the German bond yields. And so I was actually not really interested in real estate specifically. I just ended up doing a lot of research on everything that was out there and found real estate was extremely predictable in terms of wealth creation and had the opportunity to create some asymmetric returns. So that's what led us to this conversation today. Yeah, yeah. So I know your story pretty well. So fill the audience in a little bit, but I know that Jeremy Roll, who's been a guest on our show before, is a mentor of yours and one of the first people kind of got you into the space or got you interested in the space. And he's well known for taking a fully passive approach, right? He's one of these guys that's just fully passive. That's kind of his thing. How have you kind of adapted that approach and made it your own? Hunter Thompson (07:29.038) So yeah, you're right. going back to like 2010, I moved to California, which is one of the most decimated States in the country in terms of the recession, right? And so that's where I started my real estate career. And so I would go into the networking events, sometimes four or five a week. And it was honestly like going to, mean, it was somber to say the least. People had lost their shirts, people that created $10 million of wealth. If they were all invested in California, some of them are wiped out. And I found that there was a couple of strategies that really struggled and there's a couple of strategies that didn't struggle. And, you know, some people don't talk about this, the default rate for multifamily apartments, 150 units or more like Fannie Fannie financed 1.5 % during 2008. I mean, it's just, that's the reality of quality assets with a lot of checks. If you got a lot of checks and they keep coming in because rental income is not really volatile, you just didn't have that big of a problem. So I was very sympathetic to finding out how to do this. And the first person that really introduced to me to this was like you said, Jeremy Roll. And the thesis was this. I'm very, I want to be focused on diversification. I don't want to be hyper allocated to one particular niche, but if you study economics, you know that in order to have a market advantage, you must be focused on doing one thing better than everyone else. But that is not conducive to building a portfolio that is diversified. Like you probably have interviewed a lot of like, let's say self storage. Operator that's like all in on cell storage and Florida's the market and everybody knows the demographics are super favorable. got their whole $30 million net worth all in the East coast of Florida. And it's insane. All the baby boomers are moving there. It's amazing. And then once a year when it's hurricane season, they can't sleep for months because they got $30 million on the East coast of Florida. And it's like, man, the East coast of Florida is awesome, but maybe I should have a little bit in Georgia. Maybe I should have a little bit in senior living in Wyoming. You know what I mean? So. Hunter Thompson (09:33.698) That's the only way to accomplish that from my perspective is to have a diversified passive approach. And I do know Jeremy very well, he doesn't just go to Mexico and drink Mai Tais. I mean, he works 50, 60 hours a week trying to allocate his portfolio appropriately. And I do a similar kind of thing with my portfolio and also have an active side of the business as well, which is where I raise capital for other people's deals. Yeah. That's the beautiful part about passive investing is you can diversify across different asset classes, different geographies with different sponsors, all that sort of thing so that you can diversify within the realm of real estate or business or whatever it might be. Rather than if you are an active sponsor, you're operating those properties. That market advantage is knowing the market, knowing the market being boots on the ground and knowing all those intricacies rather than, but you know, if you're that person, it's very difficult to diversify. Perhaps you can pass it invest in somebody else's deals. But again, you're, jumping into the passive investing space. Yeah. So you're very well known as, know, a great capital raiser. Do you consider that a passive approach or is that an active approach? That's exactly right. Hunter Thompson (10:44.142) Well, it's a hybrid, right? Because what I do is I still find and aggregate active owner operators in their respective niches. It's just that because I have a little bit of expertise in this and a due diligence process and some economies of scale, because we've invested very significantly over the years and because we have hundreds of investors and thousands of people on our list or tens of thousands on our list, we can do the level of due diligence that most passive investors can't. even if they knew exactly what to do, it's not economically viable. So I'll you an example. There's a lot of passive investors that listen to the show. And I'm sure that if you had the time and infinite resources, you would want to go visit these properties in person on every single deal. Spend probably a hundred hours on due diligence on each deal. know, not only talk to the sponsors themselves, but their CPAs, their contractors, their property managers. You want to review their software. You want to run criminal checks, background checks. If you had infinite time and resources, you'd probably do all that stuff. But if you do all that and you're investing 50 grand, your return profile is gonna be deteriorated by that due diligence process. And so I feel like there's need in the space for that extra layer of due diligence, but it's not economically viable unless you're pulling capital together, aggregating investors. And so that's why I founded Asim Capital to do that exact thing. We provide that service and... usually investors aren't really paying anything out of pocket. We get our economics from the sponsor because we can show up with, hey, $5 million in 30 days, $10 million in 60 days, these types of things. And that's a great skill to have in the business of real estate. Yeah. And you just laid that out perfectly. You know, why some people ask, why don't you just go straight to the operator to invest in rather than someone who might be mainly a capital raiser or an aggregator of capital. And you just laid that out perfectly. It's, you know, that's an extra layer of due diligence, time, effort, money that you as the passive investor don't have to do. And if you do do it, it just stops making sense. I mean, there's only so much you can do. Even if you take something simple. Seth Bradley (12:51.022) It's certainly not simple, but something like, you know, looking at a sponsor's underwriting model, there are so many things to look into that and you won't be able to pick that apart. I mean, you just won't from the past investors per second. Even if I go grab somebody sponsors, some sponsors underwriting model and look at it, I don't know what equations they've changed. I'm not going to check a thousand different equations. But what we do bring value wise is that we know these sponsors. It's a really small industry when you get to know everyone in it. And we know their reputations. know how their deals have gone. We know how they treat their past investors. So that's just an extra level of due diligence that the past investors at the retail level might not be able to do. least not. Exactly right. That's exactly right. And something else, think that I obviously I've mentioned economics a couple of times in the show. Like this is the lens through which I view the space. And if you are an owner operator, you want to kind of play lip service to economics. So the reality is you've got your head down because you can't adjust your business accordingly. Like if you're a retail owner operator and then retail centers get closed in 2020 and you cannot go to retail. You can't just go, all right, we're doing hotels now. You can't, I mean, you've built up a business around that, but as a passive investor, you can be nimble and aggregate capital and allocate capital based on your view through the lens of economics or otherwise. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, you're not going to if you're a retail operator, you're not going to say in tanks, you're not going to be like, OK, well, retail sucks now. Don't don't invest with me. Forget about it. Exactly. That's the more else you've got to come up with reasons why to invest in. It might not be the best for those investors. Hunter Thompson (14:29.516) That's exactly right. That's exactly right. So a lot of our listeners are attorneys, they're doctors, they're W-2s. Is raising capital something they should be interested in getting into? Should they take that next step? depends. So, I mean, we do a webinar about raising money. And the first thing we say is like, Hey, look, this is like the third slide in the presentation. And I say like, are you actually ready for this responsibility? If not, should leave now because you know, what we talk about is turning on the faucet, turning on that thing. It's like the X factor of every business. And I don't want you to 10 X. I don't know what I'm doing. You know, so it's, take the responsibility very, very seriously. And, If you haven't done a deal, for example, you shouldn't raise money for a deal. What you should do is go all in on education. And I know you've done just a tremendous job kind of educating your base, but you can go all in. I'll put this, this is like a really powerful way to put this. So in 2010, when I started going to real estate meetings, everyone was saying like, honor, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. I've been in this business for 30 years and never seen anything like it. This is the back the truck up moment. And I was like, back what truck up? Like, don't know what I'm doing. Like, I don't know what a cap rate is. You know what I mean? But here's the crazy thing. They were absolutely correct. The market dynamics was so favorable that it was probably more favorable than any time in history, especially when it comes to commercial real estate. But four years later, I had developed more confidence, more knowledge, more network that the deals I solved then were better than the deals I saw in 2010. And that is why this game is amazing. Hunter Thompson (16:05.794) because if you can expand your network and knowledge and confidence faster than even the most pronounced recovery in the history of real estate. And so all those people that if you ever hear someone saying like, now's the opportunity of a lifetime, go all in, like maybe they're right, but it might not be the right time for you. So just take your time, stay away from people that are pushy. The reason this game works is that it works all the time. So you never miss the opportunity of a lifetime. That's the whole point. Love it, man. Yeah. So they already have the network, right? If you're an attorney or doctor, you probably know other attorneys and doctors. So at least you have that network established of high net worth individuals that you might be able to aggregate some capital with. But you're right. I mean, the education piece is imperative and everybody goes through that learning curve and it takes some time. And there's a lot of responsibilities to come with raising capital and investing in real estate in general. So you've got to make sure that you get that education piece nailed down. Totally. Actually, do you mind if I, so like something that's been just like on my mind recently is, and so many past investors need to understand is that there's been a lot of discussion around the yield curve inversion and all of that. Do you mind if I talk about that? I'm sure that the lot of listeners are going to be interested. Okay. So recently, you know, there's been a lot of discussion around economic indicators and recessions and such, and what that may mean for us as investors and Absolutely, let's jump into it. Hunter Thompson (17:30.328) Part of this is because of the inverted yield curve. And I'll break what that down means just really quickly. So typically speaking, bond yields slope up into the right. If you think of the X axis as time and the Y axis as the yield, you would think that the yields would slope up into the right because the longer the time, the more time risk you're incurring, the higher the return you would want on your bond. So that's typical. But every now and then there's this economic phenomenon that takes place where short-term bonds can produce higher yields than long-term bonds because people are concerned about short-term risk. And so bonds, the long-term bonds, people flood into the long-term bonds, which reduces the yields and also increase the yields of the short-term bonds. And so this unique phenomenon takes place. And historically speaking, this has been a very good predictor of recessions, typically 18 to 22 months after the inversion. of the two year and the 10 year bonds. Does that make sense before I go forward? Yeah. Okay. So I think that this is a good indicator of recessions, generally speaking, but I am very bullish about the current environment and I can give you some data as to why, but most importantly, 2008 is a really significant aberration. Recessions do not typically trigger significant pullbacks in real estate. mean, a 10 % pullback in real estate, especially commercial real estate or multifamily apartments in particular, that is pretty a historic. mean, it takes, you got to look back decades to find these types of examples. And I just want investors to understand that. But we saw something in 2008 that this was confirmed in 2020. That is just a holy crap type of moment, even in the face of that potentially challenging information. which is in 2008, for the first time to this scale, the federal government, know, printed trillions of dollars. And this was basically the Pandora's box, which was open in terms of quantitative easing. And I believe it set the precedent that anytime something catastrophic or borderline catastrophic or could be catastrophic, could happen, they're gonna smash that button. And I've been talking about this for a decade and then 2020 happens. Hunter Thompson (19:51.252) And boy, were we right. And they smashed the trillion dollar button harder than they've ever smashed it before. The United States government printed about a $6 trillion. Federal governments all around the world, the central banks printed another $4 trillion. So there's 10 trillion extra dollars in the system slushing around the financial sector searching for yield. And I believe that what's going to happen is that yield, that search is gonna go into the bond markets first, because it's the only place you can place trillions of dollars quickly. And then it's gonna work its way to United States real estate, which I think still is the most favorable risk adjusted investment in the world. And I'm not the only one that thinks that. So imagine this trillion dollar tsunami set to crash on a very limited amount of supply in the United States. in the wake of enduring an affordable housing crisis in an environment where every bond in the industrialized world is negative, the United States positive interest rates and positive cap rates are here to provide that yield. And this is a crazy, crazy moment. I want to talk about interest rates in a second, but like that tsunami, that visualization of that tsunami, I think is creating a situation where it's like, are you going to surf that tsunami? Or are you going to sit back and watch that crash and watch equity prices rise without participating? Yeah. Yeah. So how did the other things kind of layer onto that? I mean, we're not just hearing about the, you know, the inverted yield curve, but also, you know, the interest rates that the feds are hiking up and inflation is through the roof that everybody's feeling the effects of that. I mean, how do all these different factors, you know, what are they resulting? What is the result or, know, what is your prediction of the results? Hunter Thompson (21:39.278) So first of all, I'm glad you asked this because I'm working on a summit right now where we're having 22 experts in different niches talk about their perspective on this exact topic. And so I'm in the middle of these sessions and like they have been crazy. So if you want to get access to that, it's a free summit, by the way, you can go to 100ktoinvest.com and it's for people that have a hundred thousand dollars to invest. you you want to look at different niches through this economic lens. So someone I just interviewed on my show, Dr. Peter Lindemann talks about this and very well-known economist. Basically these rising interest rates, dude, this is serious. I mean, this is not some like economic indicator. This is actually happening right now. I know a $40 million deal that just got blown up because the bank basically underwriting changes if the interest rate increases by a hundred basis points, that's significant. But we got to put this in context. So when interest rates rise, typically it's because of concerns around inflation. And that's the case for now as well. And inflation is typically thought of, or I think I should say, real estate is typically thought of as a hedge against inflation. I mean, you've probably said that a million times, I have too, but I think out of this conversation, you maybe will both start phrasing it slightly differently. It is true that it is a hedge against inflation, but I think that doesn't even come close to stating. how favorable inflation is for real estate owners. Because when we think about real estate being a hedge against inflation, I think it's like this. We think about the equity prices, the prices of real estate rise proportionally as inflation takes place with is true. But there's something else that's taking place, which is there's a distinction between equity prices and consumer prices. So when consumer prices rise, you have inflation working its way through the monetary system and the consumers feel it. from top to bottom, right? But in real estate, we trade the assets on a multiple of net income. So I know you bought some multifamily apartments. have I. Most deals look something like this. We're buying from an owner that doesn't know what they're doing for some degree or another. We're going to buy the property, raise rents, cut expenses. We'll probably raise rents by 15 % year one, maybe 8 % year two. And then from that year going forward, we're probably going to track along with inflation. Does that make sense? Hunter Thompson (24:02.572) Yeah. If you're being conservative. Yeah. So I would expect rents after the business plan is implemented to simply track along with inflation to be conservative. And then expenses will also track along with inflation. Now, most people, when they hear that, they think, it's a wash. You know, the top line is increasing by 5%. The expenses are increasing by 5 % and no one's really going to benefit. But that would only be the case if it was a one-to-one ratio of gross to expenses. Absolutely. Hunter Thompson (24:31.98) or net to expenses and it's not. Like most of the assets you and I look at, we're talking about 45 % operating expense ratio and self storage, for example, you can see 35 or even 30 % operating expense ratio. So it's disproportionately impacting the top line compared to the bottom line, because the bottom, the expenses are so much smaller. So the net is actually increasing significantly every year you have five, six, seven, eight, percent inflation. And I'm sure you've seen a lot of people that say it's really 15. That's even better for owners because the net isn't going to increase, increase and increase. There's one other piece of this inflation discussion that I want to talk about, but it's a little bit confusing. Are you, did I explain that in a way that's clear? No, that was perfect. Very clear. Complicated subject, very clear. Okay, good. So it's not just a hedge, right? The hedge is like, sure, the asset values excluding this discussion around NOI. That's the first part. The second part is the NOI situation is very favorable for investors. The third piece though is like this almost no one's talking about this. And I think it's probably the most powerful and conceptually it is the most powerful, which is if I go to buy a $15 million piece of property, I put $5 million down. I borrowed $10 million. The bank is now on the losing end of basically compounding interest because of inflation. If I borrow $10 million in today's purchase power, by 10 years, if inflation continues at 8 % per year, by 10 years, the purchase power of that $10 million has been cut in half by inflation, meaning the purchase power of the dollars, I will pay them in 10 years, Hunter Thompson (26:18.104) Half is valuable to me. And it's the same dollar amount that I ended up paying them, but the purchase power has now been cut in half. So what this means is that while there is so much chatter about interest rates rising, the reality is they're net negative in real terms. The bank is paying you to borrow their money, to buy an asset, which value will increase and also in a while will increase and also likely the multiple on which that in a while is. rated will increase. This is why this is a back the truck moment for these real estate owners. And, you know, that's what we're doing right now. Yeah. So based on that, do you think when you're looking at different asset classes, the more disproportionate the income is to the expenses, maybe the more favorable that investment looks like nowadays? Really good question. Um, I do think there's some merit to that, but I gotta say a caveat. So we have some self store, excuse me, some, assisted living properties and those actually are like 70 % operating at expense ratios. So you can hear this and say, Oh, those maybe we're going to get hammered. Senior living is dealing with some challenges because of COVID, but the top line is not increasing at inflation. The top line is increasing at like 10, 15 % nationally. So. I don't know exactly what's going on, but there's obviously there's more to this conversation than just the inflation discussion, but it isn't the case that we're losing money because of this. It's a challenge because of like move in certain States are still locked down. There's challenges, all that whole thing, but the demographics and everything I think make up for that. But to your point, I think your argument can be made all things being equal. Meaning I think that let's say class A apartments start to make a lot of sense. Self storage start to make a lot of sense. Hunter Thompson (28:07.234) You can make the argument that new development could even make sense. So that's not something I do and have ever done, but you can start to make that argument for sure. Yeah. So maybe give us a preview. I don't want to give away the whole thing. I know you've got the a hundred K to invest summit coming up, but what are some of those investments that start making sense in this environment? We've kind of touched on it a little bit, but maybe make it a little bit more clear. my gosh. I'm so okay. So I'm such a nerd. So I'm like literally nerding out, but let me give you a couple of examples. So we have like a big broad view of things that we're going to talk about because there's a lot of things that I invest in. There's a lot of things that I don't invest in, but generally speaking, when it comes to wealth creation, the summit's broken down into three days, protect, grow and multiply. And like in that order. So protect is like downside protection, focused real estate, know, stabilize multifamily apartments. sell storage assets, things like that. Then in grow, we're gonna talk about, know, development, maybe something with like real estate and blockchain, you know, the tokenization of real estate, for example. Then in multiply, we're gonna talk about Bitcoin mining. We're gonna talk about Dow funds. We're gonna talk about buying existing businesses. One of our clients owns the company acquisitions.com. And he's gonna come and talk about like buying businesses that are cash flowing. I try to put them on the spot and be like, what sector is your favorite sector right now? He's like, He's like French Canadian. He's like, I don't really care about the sector. He's like my friend that just bought the company is a billionaire. did yogurt. So I don't want to say that yogurt is the best sector. He's like, he's going big on yogurt, dude. so anyway, it's going to be a cool summit. Seth Bradley (29:43.284) That's awesome. Yeah. It sounds like it's going to be like really diverse, right? It's not just, okay, a multifamily summit. You're kind of going to give this broad swath of lots of different ways to invest in different risk profiles as well. Totally. That's what's cool. Okay. So this is what you and I like kind of have in common. Like we can actually be open and honest about our views because of the position that we play. And this is why I don't think I've ever seen a summit quite like it because it wouldn't be good for business if all you did was multifamily and you go, Hey, go invest in Bitcoin mining. So, but you know, we're just trying to do the right thing for the past investors. Like I said, hundred K to invest.com. Yeah. I love the concept, man. Cause a lot of people are thinking that they're like, okay, well I've got, I've got a hundred K to invest. Like what is the best place to put it? And especially with all these different crazy factors that are going right now, going on right now, that's, that's awesome. Very timely. All right, man. Before we jump into the freedom for let's jump on to one last golden nugget for our listeners. got one. Yeah. Just go spitball. Cause I have got a bajillion. Okay. didn't know you did the freedom for that. So crazy. do a freedom Friday thing. We're on the same page in so many ways, dude. That's awesome. So, here's a golden nugget for sure. you know, speed beats pretty much everything. So what this means is that, the difference between like college sports and professional sports, basically that everyone's faster. In fact, you can be smaller, but if you're way faster, you can still move up through the ranks from high school to college to professional. Spitball man. Hunter Thompson (31:08.832) And the same is true of business. Now, some people might hear that and go, like you're rushing through due diligence. No, it means rush to conduct due diligence, rush to start. But it doesn't mean go quickly and rush through it and do it sloppily. It means get to it. And one of the best ways that I've found to get to it is to find mentors, is to find guides and not try to figure it out on your own. know, of cool things that I've done, you mentioned some. cool things I've done in this industry. It's awesome, but dude, I didn't make any of this stuff up. That's not my lane. I want to find someone that has done exactly what I want to do. And I want to model it as closely as possible. And by the way, when you do this, you'll find a place where you feel like your gut wants to go right. And they went left. And sometimes you can feel like, okay, now I got to go on my own. I'll you a perfect example. You mentioned Jeremy Rohl. He's a passive investor, right? And there was a moment where I was thinking my skills are not completely used. Like I've got this excitement about like building websites and marketing and email content, which Jeremy doesn't do, you know? And I'm like, I need to find someone that's done that. I looked left, found someone that went that direction and then model, model, model, model. And I'm sure there's going to be a moment where I have to do the same thing and model, model, model. So I'm never going like, Hmm, how can I use my raw intelligence to figure this out? By the way, if I had done that, you know, I still would have been like struggling to get C's in college. You know what I mean? So like it's all because of just finding good mentors. Yeah, absolutely. It's a way to accelerate your growth. A lot of people, they'll look and say, look, I don't want to buy this course or this mentor or this coach because it's expensive and it might be expensive, but think about like what people pay for their undergraduate degree or their law degree. I mean, it's ridiculous. And it's a fraction of that. That's exactly right. probably shouldn't made a joke about making season college, given your audience, but, you know, here's what I can say about your audience in particular. Everybody kind of values things differently. And it's like your audience has a high demand for time. Cause it's what they lack. When I started my career, I had all the time in the world. Nobody cared about anything. I couldn't get my calendar to get filled up, but all of sudden after years of working the skills that I have developed now, the sense is very difficult for me to get 15 minutes. Hunter Thompson (33:24.342) So when I think about how can I expedite whatever this is, my need for money is low. My need for time is high. So it's like, if I can pay to expedite whatever it is, trust me, you tell me it's $5,000 to get 30, okay, done. I'll get the result in 30 minutes. Boom, here's the five grand. so, but that's a balance, right? So there's a lot of people listening to this right now that are kind of going down this path and perhaps they have a lot of time. So then what the opportunity is, is that's your leverage point. Find someone that has a high demand for time, low demand for money, and you can exchange. Yeah, definitely. Most of our listeners definitely don't have time. mean, I'll be like, Hey, make sure you get a workout in or meditate in the morning. Like I don't have 15 minutes. don't have an hour. Billing, Billing 3000 hours a year. It's ridiculous, man. I've been in that world and it's, it's tough to carve out some time. So that's why I passed investing is really the way to go. mean, I did the fix and flips and, and did all that kind of stuff to start out with. And it's just, it's not a good business model for. So tough. Seth Bradley (34:23.15) You know, an attorney at a big law firm or a doctor that's running their own practice. It's just really difficult to balance those things. All right, man, let's jump into the freedom for let's go. Totally. Hunter Thompson (34:33.454) It's time for the Freedom Form. What's the best thing you do to keep your mind and body healthy? you already know. you know, I'm constantly working on, like kind of like athletic inspired things. have a gym. It's probably the most baller thing ever. I'm not like the typical flashy person, but I do have a home gym is pretty dope. and so right now when I'm working on is a 1,000 pound total for the three powerlifting lifts, the squat bench and deadlift. I'm not there yet, but I'll check in maybe in three months and I'll probably be there. Woo, sounds good, man. With all your success, what is one limiting belief that you've crushed along the way and how did you get past it? dude. Okay, I'm not gonna do like a 30 minute thing on this one, but you know, I think a lot of people... Hunter Thompson (35:21.432) get the impression that the higher you go up in the success ladder, the more it's about tactics and strategies and nothing can be further from the truth. Hunter Thompson (35:35.326) I've paid $50,000 to be in a room with some very successful people. And the reason that room is so exciting is because you start to realize that there is no ceiling. It's a mental thing. It is not the tactics and the strategies that I wanted to learn. I wanted to know what they move like, how they think. And that's a lot of money to pay. But the higher you go up in that ladder, The smaller, the little tweaks, the, that realization that, I should do that. I can do that. That stuff. It's crazy. Right. Because when you start, you're like, there's a certain point, like at different layers, again, there's a certain point where you go, I'm sick of hearing about this mindset stuff. get it. I just want results. But then you realize later, that's all that's holding me back. So like, that's my thought. Yeah, it's a lot of money, but at the same time, that's something that sticks with you forever. Once you get over that, not that mindset hurdle, it's with you forever. What's one actual step our listeners can do right now to start creating more freedom. Totally. Hunter Thompson (36:40.28) So funny that you have these dude, this is so cool. I've like, respect this so much, cause it's what it's all about. One strategy they can implement. I would say leveraging technology to save time. First eliminating a lot of tasks that you don't need to be doing, but leveraging technology as opposed to people, especially you. And then as you first eliminate, then automate and then delegate. So. Everyone on here, and this is going to hurt a lot of people, but every single person listening to this right now should have a VA or an assistant of some kind. Like if you're making six figures, it's absolutely inexcusable to not have someone doing some of the tasks that you shouldn't be doing. If you Google the term unique ability by strategic coach and Dan Sullivan, it'll give you some insight in terms of my views on a lot of that stuff. Perfect. Yeah. Sometimes it's hard to let go, but you got to do it. That's right. Last but not least, how has passive income made your life better? dude, that pro come on. mean that these are great questions. Okay. I mean it is my whole life. It has made my whole life, but just real quick, a story about this. So a lot of people listening to this show, when you get started in this path, the main goal is to have your passive income exceed your expenses. And that's was my goal when I got into this business as well, until I was at a conference and someone at the back of the stage, back of the room said that they had a cool announcement. because they had accomplished their number one financial role. And they come up there and of course I assume he's going to say that. And he goes, so I achieved my number one financial goal was that my passive income is now 10 times my expenses. I was like, what? Like mind blown situation. Like I didn't even know that was possible. I didn't know that's legal. Like, what are you talking about? I never heard anyone say a multiple of that. Like, you know, he's probably. Hunter Thompson (38:27.402) Super frugal guy, by the way, $10,000 a month in expenses, $100,000 a month in passive income tax deferred dude. So that's possible in this game. you keep going. Love it, man. All right, Hunter, this has been awesome, man. We're going to find out more about you. Yeah. One thing, 100k to invest.com. That's it. You guys are awesome. Thanks. That's it. Go check it out. Thanks again, Hunter.

On this week's episode of Best Ever CRE Show, John Casmon interviews fellow Best Ever host, Ash Patel. Ash breaks down why he shifted from multifamily to non-residential CRE, citing shrinking returns, intense competition and far greater room for creativity in retail, office, industrial and mixed-use. He shares case studies including a Louisville office portfolio bought for pennies on the dollar with a split-and-sell strategy, and an 80,000-square-foot Canton office deal that breaks even with one floor leased. They compare underwriting, leasing risk, and management intensity, with Ash arguing commercial can deliver higher NOI with fewer headaches when you play defense and buy creatively.

On this episode of Next Level CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Paul Moore. Paul shares his remarkable journey from selling his first company and chasing “shiny objects” that left him $2.5M in debt, to giving his way out during the 2008 crash, and eventually pivoting into real estate. He explains why multifamily wasn't the “perfect investment,” how Wellings Capital now focuses on fund-of-funds strategies using Pareto's principle to back only top-tier operators, and why diversification across operators, geographies, and asset classes is key. Paul also highlights how private equity firms vet operators, what passives should know about due diligence (including NOI audits), and how Wellings has raised over $800K to fight human trafficking through AIM Paul Moore Current role: Founder & Managing Partner, Wellings Capital Based in: Lynchburg, Virginia Say hi to them at: LinkedIn| Wellings Capital| AIM Free Get 50% Off Monarch Money, the all-in-one financial tool at www.monarchmoney.com with code BESTEVER Join the Best Ever Community The Best Ever Community is live and growing - and we want serious commercial real estate investors like you inside.
