Foreign entities have been buying U.S. agricultural land for decades, but recent high-profile purchases have shone a spotlight on the practice. Critics argue it threatens our food security and allows foreign powers to exploit our resources. Others might see economic benefits outweighing any risks. A new article looks at the scope of foreign farmland acquisitions, the countries involved, the incentives driving this investment, and the key pros and cons for American agriculture. It's been published by Dr. Larry Van Tassell, professor in Agricultural Economics at UNL and director of the Center for Agricultural Profitability.

Welcome back to another episode of Unstoppable Real Estate Investing Wealth and today you are in for a real treat as we are joined by Adam Stern.Adam Stern has transacted on more Single-Family Rental Portfolios than any other single professional in the SFR industry. He has built a firm presence in the institutional Single-Family Rental industry since its emergence in 2010. Over the past decade, he has made a career listing and selling existing rental property portfolios to and for some of the largest institutional investors in the space as well as newly emerging private equity groups.Adam has over a decade of real estate experience and before launching Strata SFR, he was the president and co-founder of an online Single-Family Rental Property marketplace, OwnAmerica, which was sold in 2019.Episode Key Moments:[00:04:38] That's the first thing I do. I figure out where the buyers are and kind of what they're looking to buy. And then what I do is I look for portfolios or assets that fit the buy box of a big swath of those buyers so that I can offer my clients. Or if I was an investor, if you did that, you would know that you had an exit or that you had multiple exit options.[00:04:56] And that's kind of how I started and I would suggest anyone do this. The way I look at it is when I find a portfolio and my average portfolio size is about 30 to 40 properties. We look at the market first. It makes sure that age, the market we have buyers for, but also that it's fundamentally sound. It has all the drivers like economics population growth.[00:09:29] That's really for a broker. That's a really comfortable place to be because. We've wholesaled land before. And when you wholesale any deal, the assumption is you're trying to maximize your price. So there's a cutoff and there's a different way of dealing with buyers when you're a wholesaler versus when you're a broker.[00:09:46] And it's just easier being a broker, especially on SFR portfolio deals.[00:12:00] Adam: So on SFR portfolios, since we are beholden to our sellers to get them the best price, we can't bind them as principles. That idea doesn't work with SFR portfolios. So on the bill for rent side though, it works out just fine, because if anyone knows anything about build for rent, and it all starts with the land.[00:12:18] And a lot of times we find land deals that aren't developed, they need something done, either zoning or a site plan or permits being pulled. To make the land more valuable. And sometimes we found a really good deal. We'll tell them, Hey, we're not going to broker this. Well, we'd like to act as a principle in offering on those deals.[00:19:05] It just, my view of the marketplace is it's a lot easier to find deals if you know, what the hell you're looking for. So I always start with the buy-side. I always start with demand side first.Thank you all for listening and I will see you on the next episode.  When you are ready head on over to https://billyalvaro.com or go grab your tools to help you at https://billyssecrets.com

Find something you love to do, do it always and get better at it. Overcome the roadblocks. They'll eventually almost never really stand in your way from getting further. And if you could find that thing that you're passionate about, it takes care of the other Ps. And if you could find that one thing that you're passionate about, you don't mind doing it consistently. You're not gonna mind overcoming the obstacles because it'll be intrinsically fun for you because you have passion about it.” CONNECTING WITH THE GUEST Official Website LinkedIn #ExperimentBroker

The Renters Warehouse Investor Renters Warehouse serves a few client profiles today: the accidental landlord, the savvy real estate investor, and the large funds deploying $20-$30M in capital per month in acquiring portfolios of SFR's. Most recently, they've seen the rise of the midsize investor who owns anywhere between 25 – 2000 homes.

Listener Question Greg and Abhi start off this episode of Think Realty Radio by answering a question sent in by Carrie from Indianapolis. It’s an in-depth question regarding her method of real estate investing, which is to buy a fixer-upper, live in it, fix it up, then rent it out and move onto another property to do the same thing. The problem she’s run into is that she’s having a hard time finding good tenants for her properties. Greg and Abhi dissect her plan and show her where some holes may be and how to plug them to make her method more sound. Solutions offered by the two include heightening her marketing plan to find better tenants, paying specific attention to the neighborhoods in which she’s buying, and finding a property manager to take care of filling the property so she doesn’t have to. Read the article Greg recently published on ThinkRealty.com, titled Two Indicators Investors Should Watch in 2019. Ask Your Question!

Renters Warehouse has grown from a local, small Mom ‘n Pop property manager in Minneapolis to become America’s largest third-party property manager of single-family homes.   The Total Solution Renters Warehouse has just announced that they’ve merged with Greg Rand’s Own America, and Abhi and Kevin talk about the behind-the-scenes aspects of that decision. Among the most important aspects of the merger is the ability to make it easier for REIs to buy and conduct business on a platform which — until now — wasn’t available to investors. The good thing about this merger for the investor, especially those who are just getting involved in the industry, is that with Renters Warehouse and OwnAmerica teamed up, they’ll be able to provide educational resources, analytical tools, and properties to shop around for, all online. The two also talk about successful investment strategies and their views on the housing market today. Learn more in this Think Realty article regarding the acquisition: Renters Warehouse Acquires OwnAmerica, Creating ‘Total Solution’ for Real Estate Investors.

Weekly guest on the show Greg Rand is back this Tuesday for another hard-hitting episode of The Power Play. Greg is the CEO of OwnAmerica and lives, eats, and breathes real estate investing. Correct: It’s Just a Correction In this episode, Greg and Abhi begin by discussing a clip of Greg on Fox News in which he talks about the current shift in the housing market. He reiterates that the market is experiencing a correction — not another crash as many media channels may have you believe. House prices have gone too high, and buyers have reached the point where they won’t pay past a certain point. So of course, at some point, buyers simply have to wait until prices become affordable again. It’s helpful to look at the market as a simple negotiation at scale, as Greg puts it. How do you deal with this? Develop a strategy, which the dynamic duo talk about in the show’s second segment. Greg details all this in easily digestible terms for Think Realty Radio listeners. Learn more from Greg at OwnAmerica.com, or check out his book Crash Boom!: Make a Fortune in Today's Volatile Real Estate Market. 

Greg Rand, CEO of OwnAmerica, is on the show and opens it with discussing the recent news of Renters Warehouse acquiring OwnAmerica, which now makes Renters Warehouse America’s largest full-service real estate investment company. A listener wants to know what the deal is with flipping properties. Is it a bad idea? While Greg has never been interested in flipping, he says flipping should be used as a tactical approach to create equity along the way. He gives a few pointers for how it can benefit you so that you are being smart (and ethical) each step of the way. Another listener wants to know how the BRRRR (Buy, Renovate, Rent-Out, Refinance and Repeat) strategy helps you pull money out when you are refinancing. Greg simplifies it for listeners so that you can start building that portfolio! Be sure to read the full article on OwnAmerica and Renters Warehouse at ThinkRealty.com.

You can buy one house. You can buy two houses, three, four, and five. Greg Rand wants you to be able to do that, and start a pattern for multi-generational wealth. You just need to know how to do it!  Today’s episode revolves around smart people saying dumb things. This includes many media outlets and websites purveying sensational—but misleading—information. But here’s the thing: a lot of the time, the truth is bent negatively in order to attract higher readership. So what do you, the investor, do? You probably already know the answer—it’s to stay educated! According to Greg, to be successful, you have to "Learn it for yourself." In the second half of the episode, Greg and Abhi address three questions from listeners like you. Get all the information you can handle in today’s episode with Abhi and Greg, and get even more at OwnAmerica.com.

CEO of OwnAmerica and recurring guest of the show, Greg Rand jumps on the telephone line with Abhi today to discuss a couple interesting happenings within the world of REI in another episode of the Power Play. In the news recently, Amazon’s new headquarters search has impacted and will continue to impact real estate markets in a couple of American cities. Abhi and Greg point out some additional not-so-obvious indicators from big corporations that may signify a certain market is a solid investment. Another topic of discussion is last mile infrastructure. Last mile infrastructure refers to the “last mile before your front door” in terms of the things someone orders online. A new offering in the world of shipping is bringing an item to your house within a day or even a couple hours after ordering, and Greg believes soon enough, this window will narrow down to 20 minutes. How does this affect a market’s value? Listen to find out! Following these topics of conversation, the duo also answers questions from listeners across the country.

Greg Rand, CEO of Own America, joins the show for another edition of the Power Play. He gets into hot topics like opportunity zones and how you can use capital gains and put it into these “opportunity zones” to defer the capital gain tax. These zones are still undetermined, but Greg has a lot of realistic advice and insight for how you can benefit from it. Abhi and Greg answer listeners questions, including a question one listener has on the struggles of finding the “deals.” They both focus on the “where” to buy instead of the “what” the property has (i.e. one bedroom vs. two bedroom). Another listener wants to know about partnering on a deal for funding purposes. Greg has great advice on approaching this opportunity and how to split the costs and go about it the right way.

Owner and CEO of OwnAmerica Greg Rand is back for this week’s edition of the Power Play. Greg pays close attention to trends and statistics, and in doing so, is able to turn his analyzations into lucrative and successful real estate investments. Greg and Abhi get into what will happen in the market in the next year, the next ten years, and “how the pros do it”—aka responsible rent collection and management. They focus on Atlanta in particular, a place quickly becoming known amongst investors as the Mega Market. Is it overheated? Is it too late to invest there? Greg and Abhi answer these questions, then take questions from listeners regarding rising mortgage rates, strategy, and the best steps for beginners. Hear more from Greg at OwnAmerica.com.

The economy is strong and Greg reassures investors that it is still a good time to buy and invest in real estate. Abhi brings up Alabama and why he is looking at investing in properties in the state. The quality of life and cost of living makes it a great location with some prime cities for investing — Montgomery, Birmingham and Huntsville. Learn more about other factors they take into consideration for why Alabama is a hot market. Have you ever thought about retail trends and if they have an impact on real estate? Hint: they do.

“At a time when our views of immigrants, especially from Latin America, are colored by simplistic, divisive rhetoric, this is a heartfelt, but most importantly a true account—one person's story that makes us realize the universality of the immigrant experience.” —Ian Johnson, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for international reporting THE BOOK OF ISAIAS: A Child of Hispanic Immigrants Seeks His Own America DANIEL CONNOLLY The debate over immigration policy has reached a fever pitch. But what many politicians fail to acknowledge are the personal stories of immigrants and their children, the humanity behind immigration policy. Based on five-plus years of reporting, THE BOOK OF ISAIAS: A Child of Hispanic Immigrants Seeks His Own America (Published by St. Martin’s Press), by journalist Daniel Connolly, paints a “delicate, comprehensive, and empathetic portrait” of the lives of the children (one brilliant young man in particular) of unauthorized Mexican immigrants growing up in a society that hasn’t quite made room for them. In a green town in the middle of America, 18-year-old student Isaias Ramos does all the right things to pad his college resume. He aces a national calculus exam, studies the viola for fun, and appears on local television as the captain of the quiz bowl team. But Isaias faces a dilemma: apply to Harvard (as his counselors think he should) or forgo college to paint houses alongside his unauthorized immigrant parents. Connolly uses Isaias’s story to make a broader point: that the children of immigrants have great potential, that many obstacles threaten that potential, and that the nation should work to develop their potential for the good of all, especially considering the fact that one in four young people in America is the child of an immigrant. DANIEL CONNOLLY has for more than a decade reported on Mexican immigration to the U.S. South for news organizations including The Associated Press in Little Rock and The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal. An award-winning journalist, he has received support from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, the International Center for Journalists and the Fulbright program. He lives in his hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
