Today's Guest: Ryan Murdock Ryan spent ten years in the electronics manufacturing industry before transitioning to real estate investing and property management in 2007. Today, he is VP of Acquisitions at Open Door Capital, a real estate investment company from Bigger Pocket's Brandon Turner. Ryan has extensive management experience in many facets of real estate including retail, office, multi-family, HOA, nationwide consulting, and mobile home parks. He has been a licensed real estate broker since 2008 and owns and operates a portfolio of residential rental properties. Highlights From The Show: Before Ryan got into real estate investing, he worked as a production facility technician in the electronics manufacturing industry, traveling all over the world. His priorities really changed when he got married and found himself having to decide if he wanted to continue to live overseas. He bought his first rental property when he was thirty years old and has been building his “empire” ever since! Ryan's first investment was in a duplex in Bangor, Maine and he lived on one side while renting out the other, “house hack” style. He financed this investment very traditionally and talks about how this was his first experience with having difficult tenants to deal with. He bought a few more duplexes and was looking aggressively at foreclosures to find other deals, while at the same time, he started his own property management company. He ran this company himself for about five years and then eventually paired up with a bigger management company that had a network of employees that he did not. At about this same time, he also got his real estate license so he could pursue his own deals. Eventually, Ryan got to a point with his own portfolio where he was able to leave this company and go back to managing only his rental properties, aided by much better systems, technology, and automation. As he started to broker other deals and do some consulting, it made sense for him to give the project management portion to his past employers so he could spend his time in more profitable endeavors. Ryan utilizes the BRRRR strategy with his properties, so we spent some time discussing how that worked for him. He talked about how he was completely reinvigorated by finding the BiggerPockets podcast and learning about different strategies that he had not yet explored. It made him take a hard look at his portfolio and get money out to use as working capital to invest in more properties. He encourages our listeners to take a hard look at their own properties in order to maximize their cash flow. I then asked Ryan what made him pick up his life and move to Maui and join forces with Brandon Turner. Ryan and Brandon had partnered to buy a mobile home park and developed a relationship through that process. When Brandon moved to Maui, he asked Ryan to come out and give him a hand, and a week-long stay turned into a month. Brandon eventually hired Ryan as his personal assistant. Because Ryan initially hooked up with Brandon by feeding him a mobile park investment lead, we spent some time exploring this investing strategy. Ryan talked about how to evaluate these types of investments and the techniques they used to add value to these communities. Once Ryan moved to Hawaii, they got really invested in Open Door Capital, Brandon's company which exclusively buys mobile home parks. At the time of recording, they owned about 10 different communities with approximately 1500 lots. Ryan went into quite a bit of detail about what they look for in an investment of this kind and also the type of investor that they look for to partner up with them. He also pitched the “Bring Brandon A Deal” promotion they are running now if someone finds them an off-market mobile park deal. Ryan has an incredibly diverse background in investing and in life, so you do not want to miss this entertaining and informative episode of the Just Start Real Estate Podcast! Notable Quotes: “The real driving factor for getting into real estate was that I just couldn't see myself in another corporate job for the next thirty years.” Ryan Murdock “I went on Amazon and bought every real estate and property management book they had because I had no idea what I was doing.” Ryan Murdock “Maybe if I had read some different or better books I wouldn't have made so many mistakes.” Ryan Murdock “If I am going to be married to my own rental properties, I might as well start managing some for other people and generate a little income.” Ryan Murdock “If you feel like you are getting close to hiring help, you are probably already past the point when you should.” Mike Simmons “I think a lot of people are like me - I had 10 cents in my bank account and every day is a struggle to hustle.” Ryan Murdock “There are different tiers to financial freedom… it doesn't happen overnight.” Ryan Murdock “Finding and listening to the BiggerPockets podcast really lit a fire under me again.” Ryan Murdock “I encourage other investors to keep an eye on their properties' financials.” Ryan Murdock “I just want to buy and hold everything.” Ryan Murdock “Because of Brandon's platform and reach, he is able to attract some extremely talented people.” Ryan Murdock “I'm always amazed at the ways you can make money in real estate.” Mike Simmons Thank You for Listening!

Mobile home parks are one of the asset classes that have boomed in popularity over the last 5 years or so. What was once an obscure investment has now become quite mainstream (at least among investors). Purchasing and managing those properties, however, still has a bit of a steep learning curve.

This decade of planting creates compound effects and he's clearly harvesting it now. Brandon admits that he's not really pretty much good at anything but he's a good visionary.

Brandon Turner was (formerly) the host of the Biggerpockets podcast, educating over 100 million people on how to invest in real estate.

I'm Brandon Turner. Most know me through being host of BiggerPockets, the #1 real estate investing podcast with over 100 million downloads. But there's more to know than that! I'm “awkward tall” (6'5”)I have an amazing wife Heather, a beautiful daughter Rosie, and a wild man WilderI read 50-75 books a year, about half physical, 1/4 kindle, and 1/4 audibleI am self conscious of my voice and weight. Ironically - I use my voice and image to talk to millions every month. God clearly has a sense of humor!I love Jesus and try to live my life in such a way to hear Him someday say, “Well done, good and faithful servant”And, of course, I LOVE real estate. More importantly, I love the freedom which investing in real estate brings. Growing up, I used to lay awake in bed waiting for my dad to come home from work and kiss me goodnight. Don't get me wrong - I loved my dad and he worked hard so I could have a great life. But I swore that I would be around for my kids and wouldn't miss out on the valuable time with them because I was tied to a desk.Real estate brought me that freedom. And my goal is to help others find that freedom - through real estate investing education and providing passive investment opportunities with Open Door Capital. Today's show is a can't miss episode on mindset, real estate, scale, and just being awesome in general!Connect with Us!Podcast Instagram: @actionacademypodcastPersonal Instagram: @brianluebben@beardybrandonhttps://beardybrandon.comhttps://brianluebben.comResources:GoBundanceAre you an accredited investor and want to learn more about GoBundance?www.gobundance.comBook a call to learn more: www.calendly.com/brianluebben/grablifebig

Are these 5 investing taboos keeping you stuck?In Today's Shannah Shares, Community Q&A reboot episode, I tackle a question from Laquesha: "Hi Shannah. Thanks so much for answering my question. I really want to start investing but I keep getting hung up on all the chatter out there. I can't figure out if I'm supposed to wait to start investing until I've paid off all my debt, or is that not smart to do? Also, it just feels like I need to be an expert at investing to do it well. I know that's not true, but man, it just feels so hard to figure out investing. I know so many people are making a killing, and I kinda feel bad that I haven't started at all, know what I mean. You've done so many great investing episodes, I'm curious if there's an episode from the past that you think I should check out. You're awesome and I so appreciate this show for motivating me. My boyfriend can't believe I care this much about my money, but I just tell him, yes, yes I do and so should you.

The world of investing has largely been monopolized by companies that offer an outdated way of investing. Most investment companies don't offer community amongst members or any type of education to help you. Enter Eve Halimi and Anam Lakhani, two 25-year-old phenoms who are also the Co-Founders of Alinea. Alinea is an investing community that helps its investors take a look under the hood to meet the people behind the company, aligning their investor's impact interests and personal values with their investments. Eve and Anam are sharing how to invest in this new era, including why social sharing is so key when it comes to investing. Eve and Anam detail in this episode their journey to creating Alinea and how they are taking on the big boys like Robinhood and other old-school investment firms to provide you a better investing community. That's right, I said community, and these powerhouse women mean it. Oh, and BTW, they are seriously smart when it comes to knowing how to invest wisely. I'll let them take it from here.LinksAlineaAliena on TikTokAlinea on InstagramEpisode SponsorsThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show. Get started with Chime today.

Alright, who has been guilty of a little revenge spending this year? I know I have. That dopamine hit is a real thing when it comes to spending. The truth is, most of us just haven't felt in control during the pandemic so now you want to spend, spend, spend. However, is that a good thing for our bank accounts, but maybe helps a little with our mental health? As our guest, Dr. Jaime Peters, Assistant Dean and Professor of Accounting, Finance, and Economics at Maryville University says, “if you've saved up and you want to buy something great, but the problem is when you start stretching yourself to spend just to feel good again.” In this episode, Jaime shares what revenge spending is, how you can balance spending with achieving your money goals, and what you need to think about if we are headed for a recession this year.

In this special vualt episode of Shannah Shares, Community Q&A, I'm sharing how to prioritize your savings goals for the big stuff.Today's Community question comes from Robbie:"Hi there, Shannah, thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question and for all the great money content. I'm seriously learning so much. I wish I would've had this podcast when I was in college. I'm in my mid 30's now and I just feel like I'm playing catch up all the time. I make good money and between my partner and me around $300K a year. We live in Chicago though and it can be pretty expensive. We've got some goals we're trying to save for - a wedding, a home purchase, and a big honeymoon trip. The problem is that we save money and then we tend to blow it on things that aren't so important or need it for emergencies or just dump stuff. Can you help us figure out how to prioritize our money goals seeing as we want to save for big stuff? I feel like I could use a little of your tough love to get us on the right track. Every article I read just says to spend less and that isn't really helpful. Thanks again and I hope you never stop this podcast because I would be so lost money-wise."LinksLearn How to Invest as A Side Hustle & Achieve All Your Money GoalsHow to Accelerate Financial Security, Create Time Wealth & Ignite Your GoalsEpisode SponsorsThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show.

To real estate investors and real estate investing enthusiasts, Brandon Turner is a household name. Not only has he written one of the most successful real estate investing books ever published (The Book on Rental Property Investing), but he also pioneered the real estate podcasting, social media, and blogging space. Funny to think that only a decade or so ago, this massively successful capital raiser, business founder, and CEO was painting rental properties, just trying to quit his soul-sucking job.So how did Brandon do this so quickly, and what's going on in the brain (and under the beard) of one of the most successful real estate investors on the planet? Surprisingly, Brandon doesn't have some secret formula, world-changing analogy, or crystal ball. He simply did what he said he would do—look for deals consistently, make offers whenever he could, and close so he could move on to the next. If this sounds familiar to your situation, but you're struggling to find success, you may find that his system is a little bit different from yours.Brandon gives valuable insight into the “machine-building” he's doing over at Open Door Capital, how he's successfully growing his personal brand, and why real estate investing success should never be a surprise. If you're a new listener to the show, it won't be long before you realize why Brandon Turner was (and still is) one of the most beloved voices for building wealth. In This Episode We Cover:The four levels of entrepreneurialism and how to become the “architect” of your own lifeBuilding a personal brand and finding confidence when creating contentThe skills you need to grow a business and become the CEOThe five-point “viral formula” Brandon has used to raise millions of dollarsWhat it takes to be successful and how to create a machine that will find real estate deals for youAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Pro MembershipBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets BootcampsBiggerPockets PodcastGet Your Ticket for BPCon 2022Listen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceSubscribe to The “On The Market” YouTube ChannelHear Our Interview with Jason Drees on Exceeding Your GoalsShould You Quit Your 9-5 Job to Become a Full-Time Real Estate Investor?10 Challenges to Seriously Consider BEFORE Quitting Your Day JobDavid's BiggerPockets ProfileDavid's InstagramDavid's YouTube ChannelAsk David Your Real Estate Investing QuestionRob's YoutubeRob's InstagramRob's TikTokRob's TwitterRob's BiggerPockets ProfileGrab Brandon's FREE MasterclassPurchase Brandon Turner's Best Selling BooksStay Up-to-Date On Your Favorite Real Estate PodcastBiggerPockets Podcast 543 with Gino WickmanBiggerPockets Podcast 584 with Jonathan GreeneBiggerPockets Podcast 264 with Gary VeeDavid's NewsletterBrandon's NewsletterInvest with Open Door CapitalBooks Mentioned in the ShowTraction by Gino WickmanRich Dad Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiThe Crisis Comfort by Michael EasterLong-Distance Real Estate Investing by David GreeneConnect with BrandonBrandon's BiggerPockets ProfileClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-629Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

This episode was inspired by a question from Bri: "Thank you for being the FIRST person to support me through my financial journey as an adult. I'm currently healing from many different emotions surrounding money. My question for you is about credit cards with perks. I got a few cards totaling 4,000 that I'm paying down but I didn't realize I was doing a disservice to myself by not utilizing cards with perks (travel, rewards). Should I be moving toward paying off and closing 2/3 of those cards or pay off/down and try to add those smarter cards to my life? Thanks again for all you do, you've changed my life for the better. I'm not as afraid of money as I once was."Links MentionedCreditcards.comCredit KarmaNerdWalletCredit SesameShould I Close My Credit Card articleEpisode SponsorsThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show.

What are NFTs and are they really an investment? I've been looking forward to this episode for quite some time because I've got a lot of NFT questions. It feels like all I'm reading these days is more about NFT hacks and losses so I was curious to know everything - what are NFTs, how do you create one, and are NFTs actually investments that you should spend your money on. Also, I'm a bit curious if NFTs are just another passing fad or here to stay. I knew just who to talk to. Stephen Young is the Founder and CEO of NFTfi, a company that allows NFT owners to use the asset you own to access liquidity, aka cash. As Stephen says in our conversation, “NFTs are simply memes you can invest in.” I think we need to know a lot more about NFTs, so let's get talkin'.LinksNFTfiStephen on LinkedInEpisode SponsorsThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show.

I have some shocking info to share with you. Data shows that almost all women will be single at some point either later in life or in the earlier years. Whether it's being married and getting a divorce, being married and being widowed, or never getting married, if you're a woman listening, buckle up for singlehood. And, unlike dual-earning couples, many of America's 66 million unmarried women survive on one income. Yep, I know, mind blown, right? Of course, women earn less and are more at risk when things like the current levels of inflation spike up. What this means is that we have to be smarter with how we save, spend and invest our money. Margaret Price and Jill Gianola have written a great book called, Single Women & Money detailing everything you need to know to live well on your income. These powerhouse women are guests on this episode and share why the money situation for single women differs greatly, how the economy impacts single women more intensely, financial resources for single women in hardship, and key money steps to take in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, and so much more.

You're super good at helping people with their budgets so I was wondering if you could give me some pointers and thoughts on what I might be missing or not including here.

When you get married, you want to start your shared life together on the right financial foot. Most people are so involved with wedding planning that they put off having necessary money conversations that always arise after you tie the knot, and those often lead to fights and relationship breakdowns. If I'm honest, even as a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, I still had some money fears after saying “I Do.” Based on my years working as a financial planner (AKA a marriage financial therapist) and personal experience, there are six major money decisions to make after you get married.Episode SponsorsThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show.

Sometimes, you have to outsource one task (e.g. maintaining the house) to work on a higher-value task (e.g. building your investment portfolio). 2. At times, you have to realize that you're not good at something in order to move your business forward. 3. When you hire the perfect COO, everything else follows. 4. It's important for your business to not be dependent on you; you have to build it in a way that it thrives even without you.

I am so excited to have as my guest today Brandon Turner. Brandon is a real estate investor, entrepreneur, and speaker, widely recognized as one of the foremost experts on real estate investing. He is also the popular host of the BiggerPockets podcast with over 100 million downloads, best selling author of several books, and founder and managing member of Open Door Capital. He has been featured in numerous online and print publications like Forbes.com, Entrepreneur.com, and Money Magazine. Brandon first shares his background story and how he got into real estate. After getting his college degree in history, Brandon knew that he had two options: become a history teacher or become a lawyer. He chose the latter. But pretty soon he realized that being a lawyer really stunk. He wasn't ready for 60 to 100-hour work weeks just to be able to retire rich at seventy years old. So, he decided to rebel against that by selling his house and buying a duplex just as the market crashed in 2007. That started his journey into multifamily real estate. We then move on to discussing how Brandon got involved with BiggerPockets. When he was 24 years old, Brandon bought a twenty-four unit apartment building. He spent a couple of years fixing it up and by the time he was 27, the building was done and all of the units were rented. He decided to quit his job and retire early. Soon, he started guest posting on BiggerPockets, the biggest real estate blog at the time. He became friends with Josh Dorkin, founder of BiggerPockets and (according to Brandon) he came up with the idea of starting a podcast. Brandon then explains his decision to move to Maui two years ago. He was living in western Washington at the time with 300 cloudy days a year. One day, he was at a kid's birthday party and met Jared. Jared was also a businessman who moved to Hawaii a few years prior. Brandon shares that at that moment his mindset expanded and he decided to visit Hawaii for a month. He loved it and decided to go again, this time for three months. At the end of this trip, he ended up buying a house on Maui. We then talk about Brandon's company Open Door Capital. Brandon first owned a property management company called Open Properties in Washington State. He was buying a couple of properties a year, but he realized that wasn't enough. In 2018, he decided that he wanted to go bigger. He started Open Door Capital in Hawaii with his friend Brian Murray with the goal of owning 1,000 units and 50 million dollars in real estate in the next three years. Today, they have 3400 units and 197 million dollars in real estate. Eventually, we dive into discussing Brandon's new books The Multifamily Millionaire, Volumes I and II. Brandon explains his stack method of exponential growth in real estate that is described in Financial Freedom in Five Years Through Multifamily, Volume I. He explains the difference between linear and exponential growth and how multifamily allows you to go from 1 unit to 5, to 20, to 50 and to reach financial freedom through five or six purchases in five years. He also goes on to explain a bit more about small multifamily and how to find your first deal. Brandon's advice is to define your Crystal Clear Criteria: (1) your property type (2) location (3) condition (4) price range and (5) profitability. Lastly, we talk about the biggest mistakes that people make when they go into the world of multifamily. According to Brandon, the biggest mistake that people make is that they are treating it like a hobby. Eventually, they get frustrated and they don't stick with it. But if they treat it like a business, their chances of achieving that exponential growth and financial freedom are much higher.

Brandon Turner owns a lot of real estate. Some are single-family homes, but much of his portfolio is small and large multifamily properties. Why did he go into this niche and does he see value that many investors simply overlook?Brandon hits on some key aspects of becoming a successful multifamily owner, diving deep into topics like why rookies should start in small multifamily, how to find a mentor and build partnerships, what to do before you jump into multifamily, and looking for value-add opportunities. One piece of advice he is very adamant about is that multifamily isn't that much harder than single-family. If you already own a single-family rental property, buying a duplex, triplex, or quadplex won't be that intense of a learning curve for you.If you're a rookie who has been successful in small multifamily, it may be time for you to start tackling those 10+ unit deals. Brandon also touches on this and shares stories from his fund, Open Door Capital, where they're pursuing VERY large multifamily deals.Ready to learn more about multifamily investing?

The average journey of a real estate investor tends to go something like this: buy a house, use profits to reinvest into another house, buy a duplex here and there, and buy another house again. Does this sound like you or someone you know?For Feras Moussa, stacking single-family properties was never the goal, especially after he had to manage his first rental investments. At some point, it becomes too hard to scale and you're stuck with 30+ units and 30+ tenants all trying to get your attention to fix something. This is how real estate can become more of a job than a business.Feras knew this so he started venturing into medium/large multifamily investments instead. His first big multifamily deal was a 99-unit deal in Atlanta, Georgia. He was able to take a neglected apartment complex and turn it into a cash-flowing, high-value piece of property that he later sold for a sizable multiple. Now, Feras does bigger deals, like a $50M+ apartment complex that his company Disrupt Equity and Open Door Capital are partnering on.If you feel too scared to jump (or even dip your toe) into bigger multifamily investments, hear out Feras. He shows it's a lot less scary than most people think.In This Episode We Cover:How to scale your real estate investment portfolio with medium/large multifamilyThe habits that a successful multifamily investor developsNetworking and being more than just the “business card” personWhy masterminds are a HUGE source of deals, partners, and friendsUnderwriting and how it differs from basic deal analysisUsing “value-add” to increase the value of a property and cash flowThe red flags you should look for when buying multifamily properties And SO much more!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets CalculatorsBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelGoBundanceBrandon's BooksBest Ever ConferenceBlackstoneCheck the full show notes here: https://biggerpockets.com/show488See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Talking Points:

Last week, Brandon and David sat down to talk about the “Core 4” of any successful real estate team. Now they're here to talk about the “Divided 5-ed”, a term they coined to describe the five team members you'll need to scale your portfolio to new heights. Both Brandon and David agree that a sizable, growing real estate portfolio needs to be thought of more as a business than just a group of rental properties.Maybe you're looking to scale into large multifamily properties, commercial properties, self-storage units, or mobile home parks. Or maybe you're just going to buy 1,000 single-family homes. Whatever your strategy, you will need a lead generator, underwriter, money raiser, asset manager, and financer/bookkeeper on your team. You may start out doing many of these roles when you buy your first few properties, but as you scale, you'll need to fill these roles with more fitting individuals.Maybe you want to get more experience before you start buying properties. Great! Join someone else's team and think about how you can be the BEST in the role that you've been appointed to.In This Episode We Cover:The five roles that will make scaling possible (and easy) for your future acquisitionsHow to choose the asset class that fires you upUsing DISC scoring to decide who would be best for each roleHow Brandon built his team at Open Door Capital using this layoutFinding a team where you learn, grow, and thriveAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets Pro MembershipOpen Door CapitalBiggerPockets Podcast 481: Build an Unstoppable Real Estate Portfolio with the “Core 4”BiggerPockets Podcast 407: Buying 100+ Houses/Year in 4 Hours/Week Using Teams, Traction, and (Get this…) TikTok with Ryan PinedaBiggerPockets Podcast 444: 150 Deals at Age 22 by Putting Relationships Over Profit with Cole Ruud-JohnsonHow to Use the DISC Profile to Communicate Effectively in BusinessBiggerPockets EventsBiggerPockets Facebook GroupBiggerPockets StoreBrandon's InstagramDavid's InstagramClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/show483Privacy Policy and California Privacy Notice.

We all reach a point of complacency. We tell ourselves that we've done enough, it's too hard to go further, or we don't have enough experience, money, or time to accomplish the goals that seem impossible. Brandon Turner, host of the BiggerPockets podcast, was feeling this way too, sitting on a decade worth of real estate, with enough passive income to live his life how he saw fit. It wasn't until Brandon started surrounding himself with people who did much more than him that he realized he wasn't hitting his true potential.Now, leading the real estate syndication Open Door Capital, Brandon has more than 10x-ed his rental portfolio, built a life he loves in Maui, and worked with some of his heroes. This wasn't by accident, it also wasn't dropped into his lap. Brandon spent serious time thinking about his “vivid vision” of the future, what he wanted out of life, and who would help him get there.He's had ups and downs, with some of his favorite employees leaving, partnerships falling through, and deals being lost. All of these proved to be valuable lessons in his ongoing work to create a mobile home empire and become the best of the best at what he, and his team, does.In This Episode We Cover:The 10 lessons Brandon learned starting Open Door CapitalWhy it's crucial to have a goal for your life and shoot towards itUnderstanding when you've become complacent and finding inspirationGiving up more to work with partners who will bring you far, far greater returnsWorking for your employees and doing anything you can for their successHow coaching allowed Brandon to open up his mind to huge possibilitiesUsing a “Hunger Games” style recruiting technique when finding new talentAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets MembershipBiggerPockets Book StoreOpen Door CapitalBiggerPockets Podcast 403: Developing a Millionaire's Mindset and Overcoming Limiting Beliefs with Performance Coach Jason DreesBiggerPockets Podcast 369: Escaping the Day-to-Day Grind to Work on Your Business with Jefferson LillyBiggerPockets Podcast 246: Surviving the Coming Crash, Earning 20% Returns, and Buying Mobile Home Parks with Kevin BuppBiggerPockets Podcast 447: Create Your Dream Life in 3-5 Years Using Vivid Visions with Cameron HeroldBiggerPockets Podcast 212: Buying a 115-Unit Apartment Complex for No Cash Out of Pocket with Brian MurrayBiggerPockets Podcast 126: From 0 to 400+ Units Through Value-Add Investing with Brian MurrayPre-order Multifamily Millionaire by Brandon Turner and Brian Murrayhttps://www.biggerpockets.com/show479

Ryan spent ten years in the electronics manufacturing industry before transitioning to real estate investing and property management in 2007. Today, he is VP of Acquisitions at Open Door Capital, a real estate investment company from Bigger Pocket's Brandon Turner. Ryan has extensive management experience in many facets of real estate including retail, office, multi-family, HOA, nationwide consulting, and mobile home parks. He has been a licensed real estate broker since 2008 and owns and operates a portfolio of residential rental properties. Before Ryan got into real estate investing, he worked as a production facility technician in the electronics manufacturing industry, traveling all over the world. His priorities really changed when he got married and found himself having to decide if he wanted to continue to live overseas. He bought his first rental property when he was thirty years old and has been building his “empire” ever since! Ryan's first investment was in a duplex in Bangor, Maine and he lived on one side while renting out the other, “house hack” style. He financed this investment very traditionally and talks about how this was his first experience with having difficult tenants to deal with. He bought a few more duplexes and was looking aggressively at foreclosures to find other deals, while at the same time he started his own property management company. He ran this company himself for about five years and then eventually paired up with a bigger management company that had a network of employees that he did not. At about this same time, he also got his real estate license so he could pursue his own deals. Eventually, Ryan got to a point with his own portfolio where he was able to leave this company and go back to managing only his rental properties, aided by much better systems, technology, and automation. As he started to broker other deals and do some consulting, it made sense for him to give the project management portion to his past employers so he could spend his time in more profitable endeavors. Ryan utilizes the BRRRR strategy with his properties, so we spent some time discussing how that worked for him. He talked about how he was completely reinvigorated by finding the BiggerPockets podcast and learning about different strategies that he had not yet explored. It made him take a hard look at his portfolio and get money out to use as working capital to invest in more properties. He encourages our listeners to take a hard look at their own properties in order to maximize their cash flow. I then asked Ryan what made him pick up his life and move to Maui and join forces with Brandon Turner. Ryan and Brandon had partnered to buy a mobile home park and developed a relationship through that process. When Brandon moved to Maui, he asked Ryan to come out and give him a hand, and a week-long stay turned into a month. Brandon eventually hired Ryan as his personal assistant. Because Ryan initially hooked up with Brandon by feeding him a mobile park investment lead, we spent some time exploring this investing strategy. Ryan talked about how to evaluate these types of investments and the techniques they used to add value to these communities. Once Ryan moved to Hawaii, they got really invested in Open Door Capital, Brandon's company which exclusively buys mobile home parks. At the time of recording, they owned about 10 different communities with approximately 1500 lots. Ryan went into quite a bit of detail about what they look for in an investment of this kind and also the type of investor that they look for to partner up with them. He also pitched the “Bring Brandon A Deal” promotion they are running now if someone finds them an off-market mobile park deal. Ryan has an incredibly diverse background in investing and in life, so you do not want to miss this entertaining and informative episode of the Just Start Real Estate Podcast!

Ryan Murdock spent a decade in the electronics industry before transitioning to real estate in 2007. Now he's the VP of Open Door Capital with Brandon Turner, where they focus on mobile home parks and have acquired $14M worth of deals in the past 18 months, with another $30M currently under contract. In this episode, Ryan and Mark sit down to discuss property management, mobile home parks, and how to find great partners (hint: offer up some value!). Show notes: https://bit.ly/2RQexj7

Mobile home parks are becoming an increasingly attractive investment opportunity, particularly because of their resilience during downturns. Today's guest, Walker Meadows, has expertise in financial modeling and underwriting for this asset class, and he is here to share his insights with us. We begin the show by getting to know Walker and how he made his transition to real estate investing. He initially reached out to Brandon Turner, co-host of the BiggerPockets podcast and Founder of Open Door Capital, and worked for Brandon for free for a year. While this may sound unimaginable to many of us, Walker saw the value of gaining experience from such a seasoned operator, and his decision to persist ultimately paid off with a full-time offer to work at Open Door.
