Today we are talking with a Pharmacist who has reached FI in his 30s. While his career has been in pharmacy he was always committed to building a big real estate portfolio. He bought his first property at 23 and has continued to grow it since that time and is now making roughly $50,000 per month from rental income. He retired from Pharmacy last year and is now focused only on his real estate portfolio. He got into real estate for financial freedom and the ability to create the life he wants.

Most real estate agents fall in love with the grind, but few pause to ask if it's building real wealth. In this powerful episode, we sit down with Coby Socher, visionary CEO of Speedy Offers and longtime real estate investor in Cleveland, Ohio, who made that pivot.Coby opens up about his early days hustling for commissions, how imposter syndrome followed his success, and the moment he realized he had the accolades, but not the assets. A single quote—“Real estate agents should be the wealthiest people on the planet, but they're not”—sparked a complete transformation.We walk through how Coby mapped out a 30-year, $350 million net worth plan and reverse-engineered every investment decision to support that vision. He breaks down his “Deal Hierarchy” for turning any property into a profit center—from wholesaling and wholetailing to full flips, rentals, and owner finance models—and explains why his buy box is the most powerful tool in his business.If you're a realtor stuck in the rat race, this episode will challenge everything you think you know about wealth, hustle, and leadership. It's not about working harder. It's about thinking bigger.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyInstagram: @cobysocherLinkedIn: Coby Socher – CEO of Speedy OffersCompany Website: Speedy OffersBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Patrick Carroll is the founder and CEO of CARROLL, a prominent real estate investment company. From a young age, Patrick Carroll envisioned building a real estate company from the ground up. The ambitious entrepreneur leveraged what was initially a multi-family and retail assets company into a leading real estate empire.  As CEO, Patrick helps define and implement strategic plans designed to further expand all facets under the CARROLL portfolio. As a disciplined investor, Patrick carefully balances acquisitions and dispositions, and has led to $12.1 B in acquistions and $8.8 B in dispositions of multifamily real estate producing an average gross IRR of 29%. Founded in 2004, CARROLL marked the beginning of Patrick's real estate investment and development career. Patrick's early success in the industry came from residential investments and developmental projects across the Southeast, which, in turn, produced the opportunity to develop retail centers, mixed-use properties, and student housing. In 2009, Patrick acquired three property management companies, creating the large-scale infrastructure for what CARROLL is today. Compounding on his experience with investment, property management, development, and construction, Patrick has taken a modest initial investment and cultivated that into a 30,000-unit portfolio.

What if your biggest business breakthrough came from a completely different industry? In this episode, Dr. Hesham Baky shares how he transitioned from scaling a multi-location dental empire to building a $230M real estate portfolio focused on high-growth medical retail spaces what he calls "Medtail." Discover the game-changing strategy he used to identify prime locations before they boom, leverage real estate for massive returns, and create a fund that attracts both medical professionals and high-net-worth investors. 5 Key Takeaways from the Episode with Dr. Hesham BakyThe Power of Owning the Real Estate Behind Your Business Dr. Baky learned from a mentor that owning the real estate where your business operates provides long-term financial stability. This insight led him to acquire properties alongside his dental practices, ultimately fueling his expansion into commercial real estate.Medtail: The Future of Medical Real Estate Investment The shift of medical services into retail spaces—dubbed "Medtail"—is a high-growth trend. By placing medical offices in high-traffic retail locations, Dr. Baky has been able to create more patient-friendly experiences while capitalizing on the value of mixed-use developments.Using Heat Mapping to Predict Real Estate Growth Instead of relying solely on census data, Dr. Baky and his team developed a proprietary heat-mapping system based on future housing permits. This allowed them to identify high-growth areas before they developed, securing prime real estate at a fraction of its future value.The Benefits of a Fund Structure for Scaling Investments While initially focused on personal real estate investments, Dr. Baky realized the power of pooling investor capital. His Blue Ridge Capital Fund allows doctors and high-net-worth individuals to participate in lucrative real estate opportunities while benefiting from his expertise.Trend-Based Investing vs. Asset-Based Investing Dr. Baky's success stems from spotting emerging trends rather than being tied to a single asset class. From identifying Medtail as a rising investment opportunity to capitalizing on distressed retail centers during COVID, his ability to recognize market shifts has led to significant wealth creation.About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

The two most important skills in a real estate investing business are how to find the deals and how to find the money. Here, I'm interviewing a good friend of mine, Bill Allen. He's a retired Navy pilot, a real estate investor, a serial entrepreneur, a husband, and father to three awesome boys. He's got an amazing story and something really cool coming up: a challenge on raising capital and private money for your deals. I talk a lot about digging your well before you're thirsty and why raising private money is so important. You might have a lot of money, but once you start doing enough deals, that capital is going to be deployed. Private money from other investors allows you to do more deals and scale your business. I've learned a lot from Bill over the years, and he's helped thousands of real estate investors. If you want in on Bill's upcoming event, go to JoeMcCall.com/money.

Today's episode is a must-watch, especially if you're in the real estate investment game (or plan to be). We're joined by my good buddy Aaron Young, CEO of Laughlin and Associates, to discuss something vital: protecting your assets.Let's face it, the real estate world is a wild west—sometimes literally! While you're trying to build your real estate empire, you could encounter lawsuits from disgruntled employees, investors, or even other cowboys who aren't playing fair. You don't want to encounter any of those situations that could result in a lawsuit. That's why asset protection is crucial.The biggest mistake many investors make is not planning for the "SHIT fan"—the sudden, unexpected catastrophe that can derail your business. It's not if you'll face a problem; it's when. Thinking ahead will prevent the biggest headaches.Here are some key takeaways from our conversation with Aaron:The Big Picture: Before you even think about LLCs, define your goals. What are you hoping to achieve? Selling properties? Cash flow? Are you planning to build a small empire or be a big real estate tycoon? Having a clear picture will guide your legal structure choices.LLCs: Your Shield: LLCs (Limited Liability Companies) offer critical protection. But simply setting one up isn't enough. You need proper corporate formalities: board meetings, operating agreements, resolutions, and more. Otherwise, your LLC might not hold up in court. It's like having a fancy-looking saddle that falls apart during a long ride!Regularity Is Key: The most common mistake? Ignoring the necessary corporate formalities! Holding regular board meetings and keeping proper records isn't just a legal requirement; it's the proof that you're separating your business from your personal life. This keeps your personal assets safe in case something bad happens.The Tax Benefits: Structuring your business correctly provides significant tax benefits. Take advantage of those deductions, but do it legally. It's not about finding loopholes; it's about using the tax system to your advantage. You don't want to use that tax strategy that sends you to prison.Don't Skimp on the "Saddle": Don't hire a cheap, fly-by-night legal service! Professional help is an investment in your future. It may cost a little bit more up front, but it's far less expensive than facing a lawsuit.Aaron's expertise in forming LLCs and offering asset protection is invaluable. Laughlin and Associates has been doing this for over 50 years—they've seen it all! They offer a "Corporate Veil Protection Service" to help businesses stay compliant and protected. Their services also help ensure you are taking advantage of all the tax benefits available to you.Remember, protecting your assets isn't a luxury; it's a necessity. It's not a single event; it's a continuous process. Don't wait until the "SHIT fan" hits; prepare for it now!Get Your Asset Protection Started HERE!Sign up for the next Magnify Your Wealth Here!Watch the original VIDEO HERE!Love the show?

But when you're able to come together and sit next to each other, and sometimes hold each other's hand or hold up a glass of wine, there's just something so incredibly powerful about that.”  “My recommendation is find the stuff that you don't like to do and hire great people to do it, because they'll be lit up by that work if it's within their zone of genius, and it frees you up to do what you love too.” “When I have something hard to do, if you have to swallow a frog, swallow it quickly, so just get it done.” Let's Connect!

Al Gordon explores the idea of "imploding" your 401(k). He presents a scenario in which someone has $244,000 in their 401(k), which could be used for real estate investments. Al suggests using this amount to acquire single-family properties, leveraging hard money loans and contributing $25,000 as the initial investment for each property. This approach allows the investor to purchase approximately eight properties, generating around $1,600 in passive income per month, or $19,200 annually. The strategy highlights the potential of 401(k) funds for wealth creation through real estate, emphasizing the ability to reinvest and grow passive income over time.  Click to Listen Now
