THIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE. INVESTING IS RISKY AND OFTEN PAINFUL. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.A confluence of events caught my attention this week. Here's what I noted:* The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court verbally intervened to defend the judiciary.* The Federal Reserve said they won't raise rates if tariffs boost inflation, but they will cut them if tariffs hurt growth.* The April 2 deadline to impose sweeping, across-the-board tariffs (the administration is calling it “Liberation Day”) turns out to be a day where they might announce high tariffs—subject to discussion and lawsuits, which could take months—rather than implement them.* Technical, flow-based measures on the stock market became more two-sided and possibly, temporarily, supportive.I suspect a bear market has been set in motion, but there will be ebbs and flows. The ingredients for the bear market are high valuations, tariffs, and long positioning. I say “suspect” because, so far, we lack hard data on a sharp decline in actual economic activity, which will be required for the bear market to manifest. We only have soft data that reflects high uncertainty. The key question is—will many people lose their jobs? So far, fears of this have skyrocketed, but actual evidence of mass firings is scant. If tariffs are aggressively implemented, firings will come.Recent bear markets unfold in five stages—down, up, down, up, and down—and it is only in the final down phase that most investors finally retch into a can, declare defeat, and swear off stocks. Timing such ebbs and flows is devilishly complex, and even the best practitioners can capture only parts of them, which is why bear markets are so destructive to wealth. Either they hurt your compounding (some popular stocks like Meta fell as much as 70% only a few years ago), or shorting them causes massive oscillations in wealth and mood.As a result, once a bear market arrives, I look for catalysts that could catch people unawares—either making things worse or leading to a squeeze higher. This week has a number of them, hence this note. I'll discuss each in turn as well as, further down, introduce my podcast guest. The administration launched a policy blitzkrieg, large parts of which have been judged illegal. These challenges will now make their way through the courts. Musk and the administration have attacked judges who challenged their decisions. As a result, Chief Justice Roberts stated:“For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”He is making it clear that the Supreme Court is not, unlike the Senate, a pliant observer. They want to uphold the balance of power.Second, the Fed met this week and did nothing in terms of policy but did provide guidance. Powell dismissed inflationary pressure in the data as irrelevant. In essence, he said that if the Fed sees any weakness in growth, they will cut rates, regardless of inflation. Stocks and bonds rallied, but now bonds are priced such that if any data turn out not to be weak, bonds will run into a problem, which will then hurt stocks.Third, the administration went quiet on tariffs—until this morning when Trump tweeted about Liberation Day. In recent months, any time key administration members opened their mouths about tariffs, stocks promptly fell, which is what happened again today. What exactly happens on April 2? We don't know. It may be a day when they claim to apply tariffs but, in reality, only name their levels. I try to visualize the incentives of different leaders. While Putin operates with geopolitical and territorial ambitions involving overt aggression, Trump's approach is centered at least as much on maintaining prominence in the national conversation. These are different objectives. In Trump's case, the trade policy narrative—like the use of tariffs—can function as a serialized story, drawing ongoing attention much like a long-running TV drama. So, an April 2 announcement may simply transition into the next chapter or it may be something more dire. To help frame my understanding, I interviewed Jennifer Dresden, a strategist at Protect Democracy.org and an expert in authoritarianism. I found the conversation helpful and hope you do as well.Lastly, stock market flows: There is a cottage industry of people who analyze equity flows at major banks. The net of this “wisdom” now is that a lot of fast money (like commodity trading advisors) is short stocks, meaning that if pension funds or others come in to buy stocks at the end of the quarter, they could trigger a short squeeze and drive stocks (temporarily) sharply higher. Eventually, I suspect protracted drama will crush the economy, but it may take a while. We have yet to see hard data demonstrating this. Until we do, US stocks might go violently sideways or even up. If evidence emerges that this policy is hurting growth, watch out—markets will move so fast you won't be able to keep up. Bear markets are tough. I'm told that teams of traders have already been fired due to the AI rout.

THIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE. INVESTING IS RISKY AND OFTEN PAINFUL. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. Today, I want to share a podcast, a China update, and discuss the D.C. fiscal/monetary standoff.PodcastBill Bishop writes the Sinocism Substack. I find reading Bill's missives helpful in keeping me on top of what is going on in China and wanted to hear his story, which I think you will find interesting as well. This relates to the second topic, what will happen in China?ChinaChina is the second biggest economy in the world and because the volatility of its growth is higher than the volatility of US growth, is more important than the US in determining the swings in growth. There are a number of assets that are cheap … if China rebounds. But these assets, like commodities and the stocks of companies whose earnings are significantly influenced by China, are traps if China doesn't solve its challenges. It's also true deflationary pressures globally will intensify if China continues to struggle. That's important for monetary policy everywhere.To put numbers around the problem, China is a $19T economy with roughly $8T of bad debt, mostly tied to real estate developers and local governments. Defining what exactly “bad” is isn't straightforward; a debtor who is having trouble repaying their debts qualifies. Once the debt is bad, the economy can freeze. The debt is a contract that then needs to be re-negotiated or defaulted on. This is the same thing that happened in the US in 2008. A chunk of income goes to servicing the debt, hurting demand. Corporate profits in China are declining, down 7.5% in November from a year ago, which reflects this freeze. This is self-reinforcing and it only breaks when the government (which is the only entity that can still meaingfully borrow) borrows, prints and both weakens its currency and buys back the bad debt. It's less ideology than physics. From what I can tell, China is not doing this. While there are a lot of policy actions, nothing seems to be tackling the debt issue in its entirety. A system like China is different than Western systems. Power is concentrated versus dispersed. For instance, even with Republicans in control of the US White House, Congress, and Supreme Court, Trump has been buffeted. Gaetz didn't get through, and neither did abandoning the debt limit. In China or Russia, one person controls everything. Sometimes this person is more liberal—like Deng Xiaoping or Gorbachev, and these places evolve. Sometimes this person is more conservative—like Stalin and Mao or Putin and Xi, and these places stagnate or go backward. When Xi was told his policies would produce deflation (which makes the debt squeeze worse), his answer supposedly was, “what's wrong with that?”That evidence suggests an authoritarian leader is doing a bad job often has little bearing on policy. Putin is killing a significant chunk of his own population (not to mention Ukrainians), and he shows no signs of letting up. Ditto Stalin and Mao, who oversaw the most costly man-made starvation in the history of governance. While I see lots of cheap assets tied to China's growth, I can't bring myself to buy them. It looks like bad risk/reward. The US Monetary Fiscal BattleWhen I look at the set-up going into Trump's reign, it is also complicated. Stock valuation is high, the market is long, the budget deficit is 6% and the Fed is discounted to cut just one more time. The best aspect of the setup is that bond yields have risen 100 basis points and are now close to the top of their range.Underneath the surface, a battle is underway. The White House agenda is tariffs and tax cuts. If Trump brings on these policies on day #1, I suspect we get a bond sell-off that is big enough to whack the stock market, possibly hard. The Fed will be reluctant to cut interest rates given that these policies are in part inflationary. They said as much earlier this month.If Trump surprises, however, he will come out with efforts to reduce the budget deficit and cut taxes only for the middle class, not rich people. He could also talk about tariffs but not implement them. Those policy choices, plus slowing growth and inflation, would give the Fed room to cut interest rates, which can fuel another up leg in the stock market. Said differently, to get what Trump wants—a boom—he needs to give up on something else he wants—tariffs and tax cuts. I'm skeptical he will make this pivot unless the financial markets fall apart. Trump is both powerful and unpredictable. He ran on policies not that different than Richard Nixon—law and order, strong growth, and reducing foreign entanglements (then Vietnam) with dignity. But what will Trump 2.0 mean in practice? Is he anti-immigration (Maga) or pro-immigration for hi-tech workers (Elon)? Is he for big tax cuts or reigning in wasteful spending? It's worth remembering that Nixon was responsible for one of the biggest financial shifts in the last 100 years—the end of the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates. This did not come up in his campaign, of course. Could we be in for a change that dramatic? Maybe. A dollar devaluation would certainly spur growth and the dollar is at its highest level in real terms in decades. My plan is to wait for hard facts and adjust accordingly, perhaps substantially. Happy New Year, and thanks for reading. I am taking a few days off in the beginning of the year, so will get back to you later in January.

THIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE. INVESTING IS RISKY AND OFTEN PAINFUL. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.There are about 45,000 Russian casualties a month now in Ukraine. That equates to a rate of 540,000 soldiers per year or about 1% of Russia's male, fighting-age population, thus the call to North Korea to supply troops. About 15% of Russia's population died in World War 2, so today's losses are modest in comparison but by modern standards an incomprehensible cost for territorial gain. Almost all of those who die come from Russia's hinterlands. An American equivalent would be if the Pentagon emptied US jails, drafted from the poorest zip codes, sent them to attack Canada, and then gave generous cash packages to the next of kin. Some provincial Russians have even welcomed the war because the poorest, most alcoholic locals have been disposed of and replaced with a cash subsidy. The question is if President-elect Trump will view Putin's negotiating position as strong. I don't know the answer. I do know Trump's answer has vast implications for geopolitics. China is weighing Taiwan, Iran is weighing its tactic of spreading death and chaos in the Middle East. This also matters for US government finances, bond yields, and equity valuations. Today, I want to talk about the policy choice and financial implications and also share a conversation I had with Lt. Gen (Ret) HR McMaster, Trump's former National Security Advisor. He offers a perspective I lack and I am grateful he made the time to talk with me and allowed me to share that conversation with you. US Policy DecisionWhile Republicans control the White House and Congress, there are splinters within the Party. Some are isolationists, others are internationalists. HR does not share his affiliation but he believes the US can be a force for good. If someone like Musk wants to cut government spending, he needs to slash either social security, medicare, or defense. Slashing defense would narrow the US budget deficit and be a radical restructuring of the global order. But such a sharp jag is off-brand for traditional Republicans. A report by Senator Wicker (R. Miss) is making the rounds. It is titled “Peace Through Strength” and is clearly meant for Trump's desk. Below is an excerpt. I put the key sentence in bold. America's national defense strategy and military budget are inadequate for the dangerous world in which we find ourselves. An emerging axis of aggressors is working to undermine U.S. interests across the globe. Congress and military leaders agree: The United States has not faced such a dangerous threat environment since the years before World War II. The epicenter of this test is Ukraine. Regardless of Party, US Presidents have not wanted to deal with Russia for the last quarter century. It's far away, has almost no economic relationship with the US, and is highly corrupt. But time and again, US Presidents have been forced to focus on Russia in a way that has sometimes sabotaged their domestic agenda. Could this happen to Trump 2.0?ContextPutin took over on December 31, 1999. Not long after problems began developing and each US President sought their best to ignore them for the same reason—they didn't want to engage in conflict. However, this has only allowed the situation in Russia to metastasize. This echoes the same process that unfolded in Germany in the 1930s, so Wicker's comment is apt. While Russian assassinations at home and abroad began early in Putin's reign, the key events where the US whiffed was when:* Russia annexed parts of Georgia under President Bush in 2008.* Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 under President Obama.* Russia fired on Ukrainian ships in 2018 traveling between Ukrainian ports under President Trump.* Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 under President Biden.In each case, the response was bumbling and timid. Note that Russia and the US both signed the 1994 Budapest Memorandum whereby Ukraine gave up its nukes in return for its borders being secured. While it sounds extreme, I don't think it is a stretch to say that this is the 1930s with Putin playing the role of Hitler and the US playing the role of UK's Neville Chamberlain. Russia has slowly been swallowing more territory, violating international law, and threatening the West with nuclear war if the West intervenes. The assassinations on Western territory continue. Just last week, the UK foiled a Russian plot to murder investigative journalist Christo Grozev. If Putin isn't stopped in Ukraine, I believe he will move on, possibly to the Baltics. Fiscal ImplicationsThe US budget deficit is currently at 6%, even as the economy is strong. This is unusual. The only solution to narrow the deficit is by raising taxes and cutting spending. The solution isn't conceptually complicated but it is politically toxic. But what will Trump do? From what I can tell reading McMaster's books, Trump is conflicted. He wants to appear “strong” and also hates foreign entanglements. His ideal environments are neater, like Trump Tower or Mar a Lago or a golf course he owns. If he were to quickly sign a peace deal with Putin, I suspect Trump would look weak. But Ukraine is exactly the type of mess he wants to avoid. To deter Russia, the US is going to need to spend a lot of money. McMaster said he thought the US defense budget needed to go from 3% of GDP to 5% of GDP. Without tax hikes, that would drive the deficit to 8% of GDP and possibly drive bond yields to 5% or 6%. This then would hit the stock and housing markets. Since Trump got elected, US bond yields have fallen. It's interesting and counter-intuitive unless one thinks a significant adjustment in government spending is coming. This is also a bet that the Fed will cut rates later this month, of course. To be sure, If the Fed were strictly following an inflation mandate, they would not cut. Inflation in the US is around 3%. The target is 2%. The last major inflation print of the year comes out next week and is expected to be 3.3%. Trump confronting Putin is not in anyone's expectations. But if he goes down that route, it certainly is not priced into markets. This document is strictly confidential and is intended for authorized recipients of “A Letter from Paul” (the “Letter”) only.

How do you decide whether a real estate syndication investment is suitable for you? Before investing your money in a syndication deal, you, as a passive investor, should clear your mind of major worries by asking the operator the right questions until you are confident that the investment makes sense. So, take the time to do your due diligence, conduct research, and ask the right questions upfront.Our second episode with Philippe Schulligen offers insight and practical advice in evaluating operators and syndication investment offers. Philippe details accountabilities to be expected from an operator while the passive investors must assume some responsibilities as well. Hear how deals can be structured, some systems of distribution of returns, and how you can diversify your investments. It's #TechAndTacticsTuesday and we're here to help you learn the right questions to ask before investing in real estate syndication.Key Points From This Episode: Philippe talks about the responsibilities of the operator in syndication.What are the responsibilities of the passive investor investing in syndication?What is a PPM or Private Placement Memorandum?How can a syndication deal be structured?How should a passive investor evaluate and select a deal structure?How you can diversify your investments in different markets?What's Philippe's worst real estate failure? Philippe's contact details.Tweetables:“If you don't want all your eggs in the same basket, you don't want to keep investing with the same sponsor over and over again because they're going to be in the same market."“That's probably the ultimate way to provide an incentive to the general partners, to have the deal perform very well.”“It becomes interesting to go and work with different sponsors which are in different markets, or with groups who are working as co-sponsors with these experienced sponsors in different markets.

Join the Private Money Academy: https://www.JayConner.com/trial/ Private Money Academy Conference: https://www.jayconner.com/learnrealestate/ Free Report: https://www.jayconner.com/MoneyReport Investing in real estate syndications has been the best vehicle for Aileen Prak to achieve her goals. In today’s episode, Jay Conner and his guest Aileen, talk about her commitment to sharing her knowledge with others to educate them on the remarkable advantages that investing in real estate syndications has to offer so that they too can create time and freedom to live their lives by their own design. Aileen is a real estate investor and the Co-Founder of Bonavest Capital. Her focus is on investing in multifamily syndications both actively and passively across different markets in the US. She has experience managing financial budgets for billion-dollar projects in the Aerospace Industry. She received her Master of Business Administration from Northeastern University. As a working professional and a parent of 2 young children, she realized the importance of creating time and freedom for her family. She always wants to be there for her children’s milestones, to be actively present in their childhood, and be there to witness them growing up. But, having full-time jobs can be very challenging. Now, Aileen invests her income passively and lets the money do the work. Not only has it helped free up her time to spend with family, but it has also helped to clear her mind off worries for her children’s future by building generational wealth her children can build upon.

In today's show, Pancham interviews Bethany LaFlam - managing partner of Premier Law Group PLLC and co-creator of Asherah's Box. Her role in providing legal counseling and strategic matters to clients has helped protect syndicators and passive investors to stay out of legal troubles, a modern-day hero indeed! Following her entrepreneurial desires, she has now launched her own subscription box business and has been managing them since! In this episode, she will showcase her expertise as she shares legal advice and the green and red flags to look out for when investing in a syndication deal! She'll also share her knowledge on the basics of public and private offerings, and what you should know about the Private Placement Memorandum. Listen and enjoy the show! Quote: “When I started doing PPM for these syndication deals, I'm like “What do you mean there's cash flow?” I am just enamored by this world now and having the law background has provided sort of different color for that.” Timestamped Shownotes: 0:38 - Pancham introduces Bethany to the show 2:47 - Her law career and how she learned about real estate investing 4:33 - Major differences between private and public offerings 10:14 - The 3 main factors to look out for in a syndicated deal 13:52 - Circumstances that limited partners need to be responsible for 16:47 - Rule 506(c) vs. Rule 506(b) offering from an operator's viewpoint 20:09 - Taking the Leap Round 20:09 - Launching her business as her investment outside of Wall Street 24:05 - Her fears when she started her subscription box business 25:10 - Raising funds as her investment that didn't work out 26:00 - Why rookie investors should go and invest right now 26:56 - Platforms where you can contact and connect with Bethany 3 Key Points: Don't invest with an operator who guarantees you positive returns as it's not allowed. As a limited partner, you're protected from those and the liability would go to the operator. It's important to tell potential investors about the potential risks in a deal upfront instead of telling them after they've made their investment. You can't solicit or advertise your deals publicly if you're conducting an offering under Rule 506(b) thus, seeing those offerings in social media is a red flag to look out for.

Signs are pointing to big opportunities, so position yourself to take action when investing in real estate. However, avoid mistakes that put you in the ‘big house’ wearing an orange jumpsuit. For example, do you know how to put together an operating agreement to buy an apartment complex? Today, Clint Coons of Anderson Business Advisors talks to Dugan Kelley, a securities attorney and co-founder of Kelley Clarke, PC. As chairman of the firm’s securities and real estate practice group, Dugan assists clients in all phases of multifamily, commercial, and residential acquisitions and sales. Also, Dugan serves as a mediator for other attorneys or settlement counsel for complex litigation matters that require unique solutions. Highlights/Topics: Should you partner with friends/family on real estate investments? Manage expectations. Anytime you take money from someone, they expect a return on that investment. What’s the difference between raising capital as a security versus a capital contribution? There’s no friends or family exemption to securities. Contributing equal shares is a joint venture and involves an active role in buying/managing the entity/asset. What are the penalties for legal mistakes? Avoid being cheap by taking short-cuts on the legal side. There’s potential for severe/massive fines, penalties, and criminal charges. What is the purpose of a Private Placement Memorandum? Protect yourself as a sponsor or syndicator and your investors by identifying potential real estate risks. When and who should create a Letter of Intent (LOI)? After a property is under contract and through your entity, not your individual name. When should new operators/investors call a securities attorney? After conducting due diligence to determine the possibility to raise capital on property. What information needs to be provided to the securities attorney to set up a syndication or transfer entity to start raising capital? LOI and Private Placement Memorandum. Is public registration necessary for private placement offerings? Two exemptions: 506b (pre-existing, substantive relationships) or 506c (restricted to accredited investors). Should an individual manager create a separate entity to be responsible for the debts and obligations of the syndicated entity? Anybody can be sued for anything. Securities is not something that you want to mess with—cover your assets. How to vet deals and investors by identifying red flags? Know what you are buying, your rights and obligations, and who gets paid what and when.

Today, you will be hearing from our representative, Betty Friant, as she interviews Louis Rogers of Capital Square about the increased growth happening in the medical real estate market. Key Takeaways: [3:10] A quick overview about Kay Properties. [5:20] What is a DST? [5:40] What is a section 1031 exchange? [6:30] If you exchange properties throughout your lifetime, you have the opportunity to build wealth for your generation, your kids, and your grandkids. Your heirs can sell the property and the tax is forgiven. [7:40] What is a DST Sponsor? [9:05] Louis shares his story on how he got started at Capital Square. [10:15] How does Louis and his team help investors with their section 1031 exchanges? [12:30] The rental market is booming and it's a trend Louis is seeing throughout the south-east US. [14:25] Louis really likes medical real estate because no one is getting any younger and people will be needing these services in the near future. [16:45] How does Louis choose and finds qualified properties? [17:35] Louis searches for stability. If they lost half of their residents, they would still pay their bills. [19:15] Louis’s strategy is extremely conservative because he wants to preserve the wealth of his investors. Boring, stable properties are good properties. [22:50] Louis says that Kay Properties has always provided outstanding service and expertise. 110 years of experience is nothing to bark at! There hasn’t been a 1031 issue Kay Properties hasn’t been able to address. *These testimonials may not be representative of the experience of other clients.

Check Out the Cashflow Chick’s Online Training Podcast Audio: Brecht Palombo: In today’s episode of the Distressed Pro Professional Podcast Series, I speak with Paige Panzarello. Boy, that’s a lot of Ps I just had in that whole sentence, about raising money, about raising capital. Paige has raised a lot of money and she’s been through the whole cycle. Started back early in the late ’90s and so has been in real estate and in notes for over 20 years, Went through the global financial and housing crisis here in the US. She emerged with a very big healthy business, and in this episode today, she walks us through a lot of the considerations, including some tactics and strategy for raising money. Brecht Palombo: We go deep in on that, I hope this is going to be really helpful for you. I think you’re going to learn a lot and just pay attention to what we talk about in here, because if you are thinking about getting out there, doing the work to find the deals, and you’re going to be raising some money. Then this episode is for you. All right, so enjoy and here’s Paige. Brecht Palombo: Welcome everybody to another episode of the Distressed Pro Professional Podcast Series. Today I’m very happy to have Paige Panzarello here from CashflowChick.com. Paige is going to talk to us about raising money. Who reached out to me over there, somebody reached out to me a little while back, and its taken us a while to connect, but I’m really happy that we did. Paige I understand you raised a lot of money. Is that right? Paige Panzarello: I have, I have. Yeah, I’ve been really fortunate Brecht because I have over my career as a real estate investor, but specifically in the last, you know, since I got into the note space. I’ve been very blessed that I’ve been able to raise quite a bit of capital. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, cool. Tell me a little bit about your trajectory as a investor. What brought you here today, and if you could just walk us through. I know a lot of times, people here this and they think, “Oh, well she was able to do this, because she had this sort of benefit that nobody else that. You know, that’s why she’s special and I can’t do it. That’s going to be my excuse.” If you could just take is from what your beginnings, so that people understand how you’re here today. Paige Panzarello: Absolutely. Okay, I’m not special, I can tell you that. In that, I didn’t have any … I started my real estate investing career over 20 years ago. And kind of by virtue, by default. I was thrown into the deep end of the pool by knowing nothing about real estate investing. My grandmother past away and she had a very large estate. She had some commercial property, she had some townhome units. We had a sewer treatment plant, and then we had some land. Paige Panzarello: Of course I was quite young, and I went off to Arizona ’cause that’s where a portion of the estate was. The townhomes, the sewer treatment plant and the land. The estate was about four million in debt. I actually started my real estate investing career in the hole. If I can do it, anybody can do it, no excuses. Paige Panzarello: I literally knew nothing. I very quickly realized, that because I’m a very helpful person, I love to help people, that’s one of my passions. I realized very quickly that I was not a good property manager, because I have a really big heart and everybody has a story. I put property management in place, and then I really started surrounding myself with people that had the answers that I sought. I was able to kind of parlay all of that, within three years we turned the properties around. I got us out of the whole, we were back in the black in three years which was great. Paige Panzarello: Yep, we sold the sewer treatment plant, we leveraged. And then we started selling the townhome units. I realized that I really want to build on the land, and my family really wanted no part of that. I ended up buying the corporation, and I started my own construction company knowing nothing about construction. This is the late ’90s, early 2000’s, and we started expanding and growing. I brought in a qualifying party, we grew in three years to 36 employees. We were building everything, we held all of our licenses except HBAC and roofing. And we didn’t hold those because the insurance was too high. Paige Panzarello: But you know, we were rocking and rolling, we were really building. As you know Brecht, that was you know, the ramp up to 2005, 2006 and then 2007 happened. The crash, you know, I was looking at it and then I saw it coming. But I was very fortunate in that I thought to myself, well this isn’t going to happen to me because I’m only encumbered about 10%. I was wrong, it happened right on top of my head, and it took me down because the people that owned me money didn’t pay me. Paige Panzarello: I was very fortunate that I had a lot of assets, I had a lot of liquidity. I had big commercial and construction equipment that I was able to fire sale. But at the end of the day, you know, at the end of three years, I ended up walking away from Arizona, having paid everybody what I owed them, but I lost $20 million. That has a tendency to change you as an investor and shape you. Brecht Palombo: It does. Yeah, yeah, no, I’m forever changed. My perspective on investment and everything is forever changed from that same period. And I know a lot of the folks here feel the same way. Paige Panzarello: A lot of people, a lot of people. And because of that you know, I walked away from real estate for a little while. But when I came back in, I came back in in the direction of the note space. You know, I was doing some fixing and flipping, I was doing wholesaling, ’cause I had to rebuild, right? But all the while I was educating myself on notes and I was starting to invest in notes. Paige Panzarello: I love the fact that there is so much control. I invest in first position, non-performing primarily. And so, that gives me a lot of ways to mitigate risk and a lot of control over my own investments and over my own destiny and profit margins. I have never looked back, and I just I love it, and I love that I get to help borrowers, you know, my goal is to try and keep them in their home, to get them to re-perform. But I get to not only help borrowers, but I also get to help my investors. There are investors back from 20 years ago that are still investing with me today. Brecht Palombo: Wow, that’s great. Paige Panzarello: Yeah, I mean, because I did what I said I was going to do, so I’m very fortunate of that. And then word of mouth of course spreads. You know, and that’s part of- Brecht Palombo: It’s funny how, or not funny but, what you just said there, it seems more and more rare but it is like the most crucial thing in this business. Because you are kind of your representation aren’t you?Paige Panzarello: Yes.Brecht Palombo: I mean, and if you don’t have that, you really don’t have anything at all.PaigePanzarello: Anything, exactly.Brecht Palombo: It’s so critical.Paige Panzarello: It is, it is critical. And you know, sometimes it’s not always … You know, there’s not always lemonade, we have to sometimes take the lemons and make lemonade, right? It’s not always unicorns and rainbows, there are things that happen because life happens to people every single day. And as long as you’re honest and forthcoming about it. You know, that’s something that I really pride myself on, but I’m human too, you know? I fall down and skin my knees sometimes too, and as long as I can own up to it and be honest about it, and not try to pull the wool over somebody’s eyes. You know, that’s just so important in this business, and your reputation absolutely is everything. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, yeah. Maybe you could walk us through, talk a little bit about … We went through the crash, we had this terrible experience. Is it terrible? I guess if I was going to be really Zen about it, it wouldn’t be terrible, it would just be an experience that we learned from. And then from then to here, you’ve raised a lot of money. What did you do?Walk us through that a little bit. What I’d love for our folks to come away from this video, this call today, is that they have some idea about how they would begin and some confidence that the things that you do in order to raise money like that aren’t you know, magical things, they’re like actual you know, these are real like strategies that you can accomplish in order to do it. Paige Panzarello: Absolutely, absolutely. Okay, so first of all, you need to educate yourself. That’s the first thing. And you have to have integrity and responsibility because when you’re dealing with raising capital from other people to use them for investments, not only to benefit them but to benefit yourself as well, that’s a huge responsibility. You have to walk into it with a knowledge base. You don’t have to know everything, but you do have to have a fairly firm grasp of the direction of where the investment is going, right? You don’t want to fake it till you make it, because you know, you hear that a lot in real estate investing, “Fake it until you make it.” I don’t subscribe to that school of thought. This is other people’s money and you have to take it very seriously, there’s no faking it. Paige Panzarello: Educate yourself to the point that you’re feeling somewhat comfortable. Surround yourself with other people that are going to help you along the way, those are crucial elements.Brecht Palombo: When you talk about educating yourself. Let’s just put a little bit a finer point on that. Are there specific things that you feel like before you’re going to go out and start talking to people about their money that you really need to have down? Paige Panzarello: Yeah, I think you need to know the risk factors. You know, you need to know how you can mitigate risk for people. You need to know the general strategy of the investment. For notes, for instance, you know, because that’s our business. There’s a lot of front end loaded due diligence. And if you haven’t educated yourself to know what those due diligence steps are, you’re really putting other people’s money in harm’s way. Paige Panzarello: If you can at least educate yourself to the point that you understand what those main due diligence steps are that you need to take. And then have your loss mitigation team and other teams behind you, that they can take the ball and run with it after you buy the asset, then you’re going to be in good shape. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, okay. Take us forward from there then.Paige Panzarello: Yeah, so after your education and taking this very seriously. It really is just there’s no magic wand secret, right. There are two things that everybody wants in real estate investing. The two biggest things are deals, which Brecht you can help with, and then money, right? Money, when you’re seeking to raise capital, the most important thing is that you need to remember this is not about you, it really isn’t. It’s about the person that you’re talking with. What are their needs? And it’s your job to really ask questions to find out what they need. And honestly not everybody is going to be a fit for you, and that’s okay. Paige Panzarello: You’re not asking for money, you’re seeking to help somebody to better their life and better their retirement, and you benefit from it as well. If you go into it thinking along those lines, as opposed to, “Oh, I’m asking for money.” Because most people freeze when they think, “Oh, I’m asking for money.” You’re really not, you have an opportunity that you’re working that you can bring people along with you that’s going to benefit them as well, so that kind of takes the pressure off. Paige Panzarello: And if it’s not a good fit, if they’re looking to make chunks of cash, and you’re investing in performing assets you know, where you just have monthly cash flow. That’s not a good fit. The job is yours to find out what their need is, and then see if it’s a good fit. Paige Panzarello: It also requires you opening your mouth, literally. Most people when they get into the real estate investing sphere of any medium, buy and hold, fix and flip notes, any of it, they get very tight-lipped about what they’re doing. Because they don’t want to feel like they’re going to be judged or you know, listen to the naysayers. But if you don’t open your mouth and tell people what you’re doing, money is literally not going to fall out of the sky and into your lap, you need to tell people what you’re doing. Paige Panzarello: You know, again, surround yourself with people that are in your team and leverage their experience and their expertise. I actually have a funny story, Brecht, that I kind of would like to share. This is literally opening my mouth and opening my mouth, both figuratively and literally. Paige Panzarello: A couple of years ago I went to a real estate conference. And I’m a dentist daughter, by the way, my father was a dentist, and I had a little pain in my tooth, right. I knew what it was, and I got back home and I made an appointment with the endodontist, he’s the guy that does the root canals, right? I went to his office, and I sat in the chair and I explained I said. He said, “Well why have you waited so long.” I said, “Oh, I was at a real estate convention.” And he says, “Oh, you’re a realtor.” And I said, “No, I’m an investor.” And he says, “Oh, is there a difference?” So I explained that. Paige Panzarello: And he said, “Oh my gosh. I really had been thinking, you know, after I’m planning to retire in a couple of years from doing what I’m doing now, being an endodontist.” And he says, “I was thinking about going into real estate, and I was going to start studying for you know, to become a realtor.” And I said, “Well, what are your goals, what are you looking to accomplish?” And he told me, “Well, I’d like to take the money that I’ve earned and leveraged it to create some passive income.” And I said, “Well, your realtor license is going to allow you to sell houses for people, is that what you’re looking to do?” And he says, “No.” Paige Panzarello: I explained what I did and he said, “Oh my gosh, that’s really interesting.” I said, “Well, you know, would it make sense.” This is very key by the way, you need to kind of ask permission, “Would it make sense for us to have lunch or coffee and kind of discuss some options for you?” And he said that would be great, so we did. About two weeks later we had lunch, and it ended up that he had a million dollars to you know, invest. You know, in my circle of friends we kind of call it the million dollar root canal, right? Brecht Palombo: Yeah, got the right side of it, that’s for sure.Paige Panzarello: Exactly. I literally opened my mouth and opened my mouth.Brecht Palombo: Yeah. Tell me a little bit about how that begins. Did you start off with like a PPM in pooling funds, or did you start off doing JVs? If someone’s thinking about their … You know, maybe they’ve got some due diligence, maybe they went through your training and they understand that part, what’s the next thing for them to do? Paige Panzarello: Yeah, I think it really just depends on what their goals are. I don’t suggest going directly into a PPM because setting up PPMs can be quite costly.Brecht Palombo: Oh, maybe we should tell people what a PPM is. Sometimes I do that, you know, we just say things there and I don’t.Paige Panzarello: Sorry, yes, Private Placement Memorandum, it is for a fund. And there are different types of funds, so if you’re looking to invest with somebody who’s doing a fund. Then you know, figure out what kind of fund it is and all … I mean, there’s a huge stack of papers of disclosures that you get when you sign up to invest through a PPM, through a fund. But you know, those can be quite costly to set up, and I certainly, you know, if your goal is to be a hedge fund then certainly you know, go that route. Paige Panzarello: But when you’re first starting out in note investing, I strongly urge people that want to do this, that you know, they start with their own money and maybe a joint venture. And then they surround themselves with other people that are in the know. Right, because the practice is always when you’re actually doing it, the action behind it, that’s where you learn and that’s where you grow. Paige Panzarello: You know, do a few of those first, and then you know, with joint ventures, with people that are experienced. You might not get as much return initially, but the value of the experience you’re going to gain is exponentially more valuable than the actual ROI that you’re going to get back in terms of dollars, right? Paige Panzarello: And then you know, go into you know, perhaps continue that way for a long time or go into a PPM. Or decide you know what, “Hey I don’t want to do this myself, but I do love the medium.” Meaning, you know, I love the ways you could mitigate risk, I love helping people, I love making money doing it, but I don’t want to do the day to day stuff. Invest with other note investors, there are so many different options. Definitely you know, start out small and don’t try and bite off more than you can chew. Brecht Palombo: Can you talk a little bit about what a structure might look like for somebody who is just going to work with their dentist to you know, to buy a couple of notes. You know, without putting together a PPM and all that. What would just a JV, like a basic JV structure look like for you? Paige Panzarello: Yeah, our basic JV structure, you know, we’ve grown considerably. But our basic JV structure, when we started out, it really didn’t change from that point, is our funding partner. We call them our JV funding partner, so the person that came in, to partner with us, brought the funds. And we put in the sweat equity and they were able to leverage our team. You know, they did participate, because you really need to know your SEC regulations, you can’t just JV with anybody. They need to be a part of your sphere of influence, you need to have a relationship with them, otherwise, you’re selling security. You need to be really, really, careful with that. Paige Panzarello: But you know, as long as you get to know the person, and I like to call it marriage. You know, because when you talk about people and emotions and money, it’s very much like a marriage, so date first before you get married.Brecht Palombo: Good advice.Paige Panzarello: Yeah, our funding partners will bring the funds, we put in the sweat equity. They do participate on a weekly basis, sometimes a monthly basis. They do help us to make decisions. You know, we include them in decisions. But they bring the funds, we bring the sweat equity. When we exit a note, 100% of the funds, the original principal amount goes back to them, and then the profit is split between us 50/50. Paige Panzarello: If we get a note to re-perform, then 100% of the principal portion of the payment goes to the JV partner toward the original principal amount that gets reduced. And then the interest is split between us 50/50. It works out well for everybody. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, and so do you put together a special entity for that kind of a thing? Are they one-off LLCs? Is that what that looks like?Paige Panzarello: I actually operate through a Delaware Statutory Trust, which functions very much like a series LLC. I always encourage any investor that I’m speaking with to invest under an entity. There are certain protections that are afforded, there are certain deductions that are allowed. Because when you’re investing in notes, it’s largely the income that you get a straight income. Very rarely are we subject to capital gains, but sometimes we are. Again, I’m not a tax professional, so you know, take everything I’m saying with a grain of salt. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, we’re definitely not providing legal or tax advice today. That’s for sure.Paige Panzarello: Exactly, exactly. Nor am I a lawyer. Definitely, seek the advice of your professionals. But I always encourage people to have to invest through an LLC, it protects them in a number of ways. Paige Panzarello: Agreed.Brecht Palombo: If somebody’s listening to this, maybe they’re starting to get a little bit of a … You know a couple of ideas, somebody they can talk to, you know, some of the folks who they know. What are some of the other ways that you find the investors out there who you’re working with? Other than in the dentist chair. Paige Panzarello: Sure, exactly. Well, you know, honestly Brecht, there’s money all around there. There are so many people that are out there that have 401Ks, they have IRAs. Self-directed IRAs are huge. I mean, anybody that’s in a self-directed IRA, they’re looking to earn and generate higher returns. And they’re just looking for the vehicle to do that, so that’s a great way. PaigePanzarello: But you know, of course, you want to talk to realtors, you want to go to REO meetings and talk to those people. You want to go to everywhere. I mean, when I was doing fixing and flipping, because here in California, we’re not allowed to … We have to have reusable grocery bags, right? What were my bags? What did they say? It said, “We buy houses.” And I can’t tell you how many referrals I got from the checker. You know, they took my card because they saw my bag. Brecht Palombo: That’s fantastic.Paige Panzarello: Yeah, I mean, it’s literally everywhere. Accountants, attorneys, gosh, medical conventions, that’s another one, go and work the lobby. You’re not a doctor, that’s fine, but doctor’s are there at medical conventions. I have been known to go in and you know, have a drink at the bar, or have lunch in the lunch room. It’s a great place, get creative, but it’s everywhere. Brecht Palombo: Yeah, for sure. Well, I think we’re coming up on time here. Is there anything else we want to talk about before we sign off here, any last tips you want to leave for folks as they think about raising money and getting into notes? Paige Panzarello: You know, again, I like to challenge people, everybody’s got their why, you know. You hear about, “What’s your why?” That’s a very personal thing. I like to challenge people, what is your what? What I mean by that is, what do you need right now? And your what will change as you grow as an investor. But you know, if you need chunks of cash right now, you know, maybe choose a vehicle that’s not a long term play, meaning buy and hold properties, rentals is not your vehicle if you need chunks of cash. Paige Panzarello: The converse is true, you know, if you need monthly cash flow, don’t go into fixing and flipping. If you need a little of both, then maybe do look at notes, because you can create both chunks and streams of monthly cash flow in the same investment vehicle which is great. But you need to define who you are as an investor first, and then educate yourself and kind of stick with it. Paige Panzarello: As you know Brecht I do teach a workshop. It’s called Building Wealth With Notes. It’s a three day hands-on intensive. If you’re interested in learning how to invest in notes, that might be a great place for you to start. There are others out there that do the same. I just highly encourage you to educate yourself and then proceed with integrity, and really take that responsibility very, very seriously. Brecht Palombo: I agree with you. The idea of … I think another way to say what you said there is to begin with the end in mind. Which I think you know, a lot of folks, they might get hot on something, or you know, find something you know, looks sexy to them or whatever. But is it going to be a vehicle to get you where you’re going? And you don’t know unless you know where you’re going. Paige Panzarello: Exactly, exactly. If you don’t have a road map to get there, then you’re going to be in trouble, and especially with other people’s money. It’s just dangerous, don’t do it. Brecht Palombo: Yeah. Tell us how folks can reach and reach out to you if they want to learn more about how you do this?Paige Panzarello: Yeah, absolutely. You can reach out to me and schedule a call. If you go to cashflowchick.com. There’s a little tab there that you can book a call with me if you’re interested. If you’re interested in the workshop, you can go to buildingwealthwithnotes.com.I have one coming up here in Orange County in a couple of months. Yeah, but just reach out, or you can reach out, direct message me through Instagram @thecashflowchick. Any of those vehicles you can get in touch with me. Brecht Palombo: Okay, awesome. Thank you Paige, thanks so much for coming on.Paige Panzarello: Thank you.Brecht Palombo: I really appreciate it, those are great tips and hope that everybody really takes a lot away from this, so thank you for that.Paige Panzarello: Thank you so much for having me, Brecht I appreciate it.Brecht Palombo: My pleasure. https://www.distressedpro.com/panzarello/feed/ 1 noBrecht Palombo

Old Capital Real Estate Investing Podcast with Michael Becker & Paul Peebles
Typically on a capital raise you want to have a pre-existing relationship with your potential investor. The number one question that you must answer for the investor is A) How are they going to get their money back; B) What is the timeline going to be. Also, make sure that your debt lines up with a similar maturity as your investment strategy. Originating a new short term loan on a long term investment strategy is probably not going to work. Make sure that you contact a qualified attorney that can help you build a Private Placement Memorandum that discloses all potential risks an investor needs to know.
This week we Tyler Sheff meets Joe Fairless who is essentially the John Lee Dumas #JLD #EOF of the real estate business. Joe is the host of “Best Ever Real Estate Investing Advice Ever” a DAILY podcast for the the estate industry for the last two years. Joe’s expertise is in multifamily syndication which essentially means he is an expert in building and managing teams of people to facilitate acquisition, stabilization, and repositioning of multifamily assets for his investors. Joe is also the author of “The Best Real Estate Investing Advice Book Ever” which is available on Amazon. Joe says that to be successful in syndication it is helpful to have a background in Real Estate Investing or at least a background in business. Tyler asked Joe about tips on how to increase your credibility as an investor to which Joe recommends partnering with a management company or more experienced party on your first few deals to build confidence as an operator or syndicator. By teaming with those more experienced than you others will be more willing to trust your ability to follow through on the deal. Joe mentions later in the episode that four main documents are included in a typical syndication. First, a PPM or Private Placement Memorandum is a 100 page (or so) document that informs investors on the risks associated with the particular investment. Second, an operating agreement is used to document what each party's’ roles and responsibilities are, how the investment will be managed and other important details regarding management of the asset. Third, an investor qualification document is necessary to comply with State and Federal laws regarding the pre qualification of investors in a syndication. Lastly, a share agreement or subscription agreement specifically addresses the number of shares sold, and outlines other rules and agreements regarding the ownership and valuation of the shares in a partnership.

Listen to our Podcast on Tenant in Common (TIC) Investing Benefits Potential Access to Institutional Quality Real Estate Investors who choose to invest into a TIC program as a 1031 exchange replacement property or as a direct investment are given the opportunity to invest in a caliber of real estate they typically may not be able to acquire on their own. For example: an individual investor with $500,000 may not be able to afford a 500 unit, class “A” apartment complex in a growth market. On the other hand, 25-30 accredited investors with $500,000 each have the ability to acquire such a property managed by an experienced national property management company. Passive Ownership Investment Many investors have owned property for a long time, realize the tax savings a 1031 exchange can provide, but are tired of the daily headaches of managing investment property. TIC investors are relieved of the day-to-day management hassles of sole ownership. They may have to approve major decisions such as a lease renewal, but in general TICs are a passive form of ownership that can free up time for other endeavors. The real estate sponsor will find the property, conduct its due diligence, arrange financing, manage the property, negotiate leases, distribute income, provide accounting reports and execute the final sale. Investor will also typically receive quarterly statements, monthly conference calls, and are always welcome to tour the property. Potential for Income and Growth Like any form of real estate, there is no guarantee of positive or steady income, but investors should choose a sponsor with an experienced management team with a track record of performance. The primary goal of most real estate investors is to generate income with the potential for growth. Experienced sponsor strive to do increase the investor’s annual yield and increase the market value of the property at same time. Financing With today’s difficult lending environment, borrowing money for real estate is harder than ever. Well capitalized TIC sponsors may have the relationships and experience to free an investor from the difficult lending process. The established TIC sponsors in the industry have the ability to secure pre-arranged financing and typically receive more competitive terms than what’s available to an individual investor. Diversification Depending on the equity amount an investor is looking to exchange or the cash an investor has to invest, TICs can provide an opportunity to diversify a real estate portfolio. Typically, at any point in time there are several TIC properties available around the country for an investor to consider. It may be possible to exchange into a medical center, an apartment complex and an office building in different geographic locations throughout the country. Risks As with any investment in real estate, there are risks associated with TIC ownership, including fluctuations in the real estate market that may impact the value of the property. The following risks may also be associated with investment: illiquidity, economic risks due to vacancy rates, default if unable to pay mortgage and possible loss of principal. TIC ownership requires unanimous approval to take major action, such as a re-finance or sale. Obtaining unanimity may be difficult when 10 or 20 investors are involved. It is not possible to address all relevant risk factors in this forum. Risk factors are outlined in the Private Placement Memorandum for each offering. Investors should thoroughly understand all risk factors and discuss them with their financial representative prior to investing in a 1031/TIC offering.
