Welcome back to the Real Estate Nerds Podcast. On today's Bad Beats episode, investor, author, and retirement planning expert Damion Lupo joins our host and attorney Scott Smith. Together they discuss the details of one of Damion's worst deals, while also sharing some of their expertise about evaluating markets, investing strategy, and investing psychology tips anyone can use. Tune in to Episode 40 of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast to hear their full conversation.Listen To Episode 40 of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast NowDamion Lupo on Losing Big, Blind Spots, and Preparing for an Impending RecessionDamion and Scott discuss Damion's early real estate career and the lessons he has learned about his own blind spots. Damion also shares some of his observations about recessions, including a prediction on when we may be looking at our next one and what to do about it.[1:00] Damion grew up in Alaska, where he later took physically demanding jobs in the oil industry. He left at 17 to escape the ennui and isolation of life in Alaska. He was able to use some of these funds to get started in the real estate industry.[2:45] Damion describes his early real estate dealings. He believes he was naive, which in some cases worked to his advantage. He purchase 150 houses, but they became a massive problem: “Within 8 years, I took a $20 million portfolio of a cliff,”[3:00] The two investors discuss the value of learning the lessons from failures. Those who do not take the learning opportunity do not tend to perform well over time. Damion admits that he failed to listen often.[6:15] Damion also speaks to the danger of not acknowledging your own limits: “Your blind spot is everything you're not seeing. Maybe you need to move three inches to the left and everything is wide open. It could just be that simple.”[7:00] Scott points out that a solid economy and market bull run influences the way investors think about real estate. Damion speculates that after a long bull run, a recession within the next year and a half is extremely powerful. He suggest investors evaluate their portfolios and plan ahead for the recession.[8:30] The two investors discuss how different assets perform in a downturn. According to Damion, “You have to know what's going on in a recession and plan for it.” Scott agrees, pointing to investors he knows that are doing well know and thoroughly prepared for a recession.[9:45] “It's the prepper mentality,” Damion adds. However, some people spend more time and money on preparation than maintaining their businesses. He reflects on the fear of the unknown, which motivates many of these paradoxical opportunities. Scott points out that figuring in probability of any given risk is important for an accurate picture.[12:00] Damion agrees that investors can evaluate risk ahead of time. He points to his own investment “rules” as an example. For instance, he will not have more than 5% of his own liquidity in a given deal. He heeds to these rules religiously. His approach is conservative compared to what he's seeing from other investors: “I don't see a lot of practicality. I see a lot of people who are stoned out of their mind by the wealth the bubble has been creating.” [13:20][14:00] Scott shares a couple of anecdotes about investors in the current climate. [15:12] Damion shares advice for new investors. “If you want to make money, there is one thing you should invest in: your education.” He lists a few terms all investors should be familiar with. Scott points out that “It is always more expensive to learn by experience...You don't have to if you aren't lazy.” He speaks from his own experience, pointing out he once lost several thousand dollars because of failure to do due diligence.Scott circles back to the value of having personal rules, pointing out that some investors have criteria for behavior patterns outside of relationships. Damion agrees that having rules prevents delusion.[Tweet "“If you want to make money, there is one thing you should invest in: your education.” - Damion Lupo, Real Estate Nerds Podcast Episode 40"]How to Fully Engage with Your Life (And Why You Want To)Damion shares about some of the deep internal work he has done to recover from failure, maintain success, and nurture himself to contribute to and connect with the broader community more. He discusses how he defined his purposes, as well as some of the influential books and practices that have informed his own development.[18:30] Damion points that passive income can develop passive desires in other areas of life, and how problematic this phenomenon is. He and Scott discuss the distinction between passive investors and those who are actively engaged.[20:00] Scott recalls his interview with Scott Sutherland about best and highest use of a property, pointing out the parallels with Damion's story. Damian points out that the same principle of active engagement applies to retirement planning: “If you're not engaged, you're toast.” [21:58] Scott points out that applying one's mind intensely almost guarantees returns.[23:00] Scott asks about the difference in Damion's life before and after 2008. He shares some stories about his drive for “more” as a younger man, as well as watching his father pass away living with regret.[26:00] The two investors discuss the internal building blocks that are essential to genuine fulfillment. Scott, who shuddered initially at the mention of spirituality, has also performed a lot of internal work.[28:00] Damion highlights the Blank Slate Principle. These strategies helped him refocus his priorities onto things that actually fulfilled him in life.The Takeaway: Work on Yourself to Become a Better InvestorDamion and Scott conclude with some take-aways of Damion's story for listeners. While each had their own take, they agreed on the most important principles.[30:00] Scott feels that Damion's story speaks to the value of strong investing psychology and profound self-insight. In his opinion, wealth and happiness do not necessarily correlate--if you want both, you have to work for it, but the work will be on yourself. This view is confirmed my numerous studies in human behavior, social sciences, and psychology.[32:19] Damion offers a take-away for listeners “If you want to feel successful, fail faster and more frequently.” He points to the survival of extreme events, the value of gratitude, and the power of a healthy attitude toward failure.[33:23[ Damion lends some advice to struggling or anxious investors: “What's the lesson in your pain right now? If you don't learn it, you're stuck.”

On the debut episode of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast, where we give the information you need to be the best investor. We take a look at the human side of investing and ask some of the most successful individuals in their fields about their best deals, bad beats, and the lessons they've learned through their experiences. Today, our host Scott Smith, an asset protection and real estate attorney, asks real estate investor Scott Sutherland about the best deal of his life.Approaching The Real Estate Market for Hidden Opportunities[1:00] Scott Sutherland has been investing in real estate full-time for eight years. Originally a product of the tech industry and traditional stock investing, he made his real estate debut after following investing strategists such as the Motley Fool. He credits his early success to bravery during a fearful time in the industry.[3:35] Scott Smith points out that most in the market are brave right now. The two conclude that this is a good reason to be conservative, and skeptical of promises of absurdly high returns. The opinions of professionals matter more than the opinions of everyday investors.[5:53] When asked what he does differently than average investors, Scott Sutherland highlights his early experience investing in Austin, TX duplexes during a market decline. He concluded that cash-flow doesn't lie, regardless of what other investors say in times of fear. He pointed out was that his worst-case scenario was still a success.[8:17] Scott Smith comments on Scott Sutherland's tendency against following the herd: "If you say you're different, you're arrogant. But you might be different in the right way."[10:00] While Scott Sutherland acknowledges the power of diversification, he also appreciates going with what you know: "The more you know about a given business, the more effective you can be at it." In his case, a major piece of his business is short-term rental (AirBnb). Tune in to hear the details of how his short-term rentals contribute to his larger strategy, as well as some of the nuances of this type of investing.[15:08] Scott Sutherland always looks at the numbers when considering or analyzing investments: "Cash flow is your bird in the hand. Appreciation is the two in the bush."[15:30] Scott Smith points out that you can only gain one piece of expertise at a time, and asks Scott Sutherland's thoughts on expanding into different asset classes.[16:00] Scott Sutherland uses a sports analogy to describe this process in real estate: "It's still the same sport, you're just learning different shots." Having an area of expertise doesn't mean you're done learning. While Scott Smith prefers joint ventures with more experienced investors for learning new things, Scott Sutherland's personal approach is more cautious when it comes to partners and their risk. Both agree that harnessing the expertise of others is a vital element of growth as an investor.[19:55] The two Scotts briefly debate the value of striking out on your own with new types of investments. Scott Sutherland shares his balanced approach: "There's a lot of satisfaction in knowing you could go it alone, but choose to work with others." [20:31][caption id="attachment_5303" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Real Estate Deals: If you don't jump out there and learn new things and go after new opportunities, then you'll never have those skills when the day comes and that opportunity arrives.[/caption]Analyzing Scott Sutherland's Best Deal: How An Ugly Green House Got 5,000% ReturnsScott Smith probes Scott Sutherland for his unique perspective on his 2010 deal and what made it such a success.[23:53] Our host and guest dive into the details of Scott Sutherland's big win, focusing on what Scott saw that other investors didn't. When asked what circumstances led up to his best deal, Scott Sutherland points to sheer necessity. One of his best deals happened to be one off his first, and was born out of the desire for him and his new wife to live in Austin's sought-after Zilker area. They eventually settled on a duplex that had recently been foreclosed on, planning to live in one side and rent out the other.[25:15] One of the major lessons Scott Sutherland learned from this purchase is a piece of advice he continues to share with new investors and anyone buying a property: "If you're not the best buyer for it, particularly in a competitive market, you're not gonna get it. Or if you do, you're probably going to overpay for it." He believes this deal worked in no small part because he and his wife were a particularly good fit for the property. In general, he believes assets can be optimized for particular types of people: renters, families, developers, etc.[28:20] The day Scott bought his property, it was dramatically underpriced. He actually chose to overpay for it by $40,000. Scott Smith acknowledges that most investors and brokers, possibly including himself, would have thought Scott Sutherland was insane for this choice. But it was the smart move to secure the asset, and has since become part of his greater strategy. He has since made multiple successful investments by offering higher than asking price, but lower than market value.[29:30] But Scott Sutherland stands by it, based on the philosophy that "pigs get fat; hogs get slaughtered." Overpaying a little bit guaranteed he would get the asset.[30:05] Scott Smith sees the wisdom in Sutherland's strategy: "If you want safe investments, everyone is going to agree with you. And that's great. But if you want to do something different, everyone is going to think you're wrong."[33:00] While Scott Sutherland's primary motivation was to find an inexpensive place to live, He paid 0.55, or $1,500, down on a duplex worth $350,000. But over time, he found other ways to make the property more profitable. His low financing arrangement allowed him to close on the property and still have funds left over for re-investment. He was eventually able to rent the second unit for $1,500/month.[36:00] Scott Sutherland's entry into vacation rentals in 2012 was inspired by a vacation he took with his wife. She observed that they could do exactly what the owners of their rental property were.[39:00] The very next year, Scott Sutherland's next door neighbors moved out. This created an opportunity: Scott bought the property and continues to use it primarily as a vacation rental, a highly profitable choice for a location that hosts festivals such as SXSW. As for his original investment, it is currently valued at over $800,000: nearly a 5,000% return rate on his original down-payment.What Investors Can Learn From Scott Sutherland's Duplex WinThe two Scotts end the show by analyzing the best aspects of Scott Sutherland's 2010 deal. Together, they share the major lessons they have learned from the deal itself and their broader real estate investing experiences.[42:00] Scott Smith observes that the "magic" of this deal happened on the front-end, with Scott Sutherland seizing an opportunity others didn't even notice. The house itself was hideous when he bought it, but Scott Sutherland saw its potential and knew its location was extremely valuable. He has always liked properties that need some fixing up.Forced Appreciation: The Beauty of Being the Scummy Neighbor[44:00] Scott Ssutherand's penchant for visually unappealing or even beat up properties is actually part of his strategy: "Whenever you go into a neighborhood, you want to be the scourge of the neighborhood." He sees neighborhoods as an average of the homes. Given his affinity for duplexes, he is keenly aware that his neighbors' property values are likely to lift him up. Forcing the appreciation of his assets is a tactic that has been extremely lucrative.[46:00] Scott Smith asks if Scott Sutherland has a tip for those interested in vacation rentals or short-term rentals. Check your local regulations and assume nothing. Austin, TX, for instance has regulations on short-term rentals. A real estate agent familiar with local laws can assist you. His own properties have fared well as "mid-term" rentals as a result of local regulations.[51:00] Scott Sutherland recommends that new investors seriously consider using the same strategy he did by investing in duplexes. There are many benefits, particularly for investors who live in one unit and rent out the other. If there's a management issue, you can simply go next door. Risk is fairly low in good locations that are likely to trend well, as the income tends to off-set an investor's expenses.[bctt tweet="If you're new to the game and you're looking to build wealth, buy a duplex and move into it yourself." username="RoyalLegalLaw"]The Takeaway: Be Willing to Be Different and Be Smart About RiskScott Smith's takeaway from his guests story is this: "Know what your realistic downside risks are, and if you can afford them, take them." [56:00] If your worst-case scenario isn't that bad, it may be worth taking. If you've run the numbers and are willing to get uncomfortable, even to the point that other investors call you crazy, you too can see the opportunities that other investors don't.Connect With Scott SutherlandScott Sutherland is easiest to reach via his website.

On the debut episode of The Real Estate Nerds Podcast, where we give the information you need to be the best investor. We take a look at the human side of investing and ask some of the most successful individuals in their fields about their best deals, bad beats, and the lessons they've learned through their experiences. Today, our host Scott Smith, an asset protection and real estate attorney, asks real estate investor Scott Sutherland about the best deal of his life.Scalpel, Please: The Post-Mortem of a Duplex Sale Gone Wrong[1:00] Scott Sutherland has been investing in real estate full-time for eight years. Originally a product of the tech industry and traditional stock investing, he made his real estate debut after following investing strategists such as the Motley Fool. He credits his early success to bravery during a fearful time in the industry.[3:30] Scott Sutherland talks about an investment that didn't go as planned. He was limited by two things: being a passive investor and using a Self-Directed IRA for the investment. These circumstances meant he had little control over the investment beyond a certain point. Self-Directed IRA investments have additional limitations that prohibit investors from being directly involved in their investment. Doing so is known as "self-dealing" and would trigger a costly prohibited transaction.[6:00] Scott Smith asks what made the investment in question appealing, Scott Sutherland points out that he felt comfortable with the asset class: duplexes in the Austin, TX market. Having dealt with hundreds of them over his career and feeling confident in the data, Scott Sutherland had no reason to question the asset itself.[8:00] The two Scotts agree that Operating Agreements and deal structure matters when it comes to new assets. Even if an asset is great, the documents that dictate what happens when things go wrong can prove critical if things go South. Scott Smith drafts these for a living as a real estate attorney.[10:20] Scott Sutherland points out that the asset he bought was four duplexes, but treated as a single property. Financing and sales issues changed dramatically because of this. Eight units would have had a lower "exit risk" than all eight taken as a whole.[12:22] Scott Smith observes the importance of keeping deal-making processes consistent: "You can't really control what happens with an investment. That's an illusion. The only thing we can really control is the process that led us to a conclusion around what decisions we're making."[13:00] Timing was an element in "lowering the bar" for Scott Sutherland's process. "The hardest time to invest is when things are great...Confidence peaks the day before the crash." Fear of lost opportunities, or FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), can also play a role in investors making poorer decisions in a hot market.[18:15] Scott Sutherland notes that unstable markets yield higher returns, but the opposite was true in his case. The market was flooded. He believes he should have ignored return-chasing in favor of evaluating the relationship between risk and return for his particular deal. In retrospect, there were "ticking time-bombs" like seller-financed debt, that created higher risks from the outset.[19:25] "If you borrow 80% of your investment and lose 20%, you've lost everything. Because you've lost all your equity."[20:00] Scott Sutherland points out his own sense of entitlement may have played a role in his loss. He was biased by having bought properties in certain neighborhoods for higher returns in the past, and neglected to look at the present situation for the asset and market. He has since realized his judgment was impaired: "I underestimated the risk because I was very focused on the return. I was very focused on how good things would go if they went well, and not on how quickly you could lose everything if things went poorly." [21:00][caption id="attachment_5316" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Postmortem Of Deals: If you've got a deal where you think this sponsor is going to really be hurt financially if this deal goes down, that's a good deal to look at because they're right there with you.[/caption]The Red Flags Were There All AlongScott Smith speculates that a combination of external market pressures and internal biases contributed to Scott Sutherland overlooking some red flags. Since hindsight is 20/20, the pair are able to clearly see how the bad deal could have been prevented.[23:00] Scott Sutherland actually addressed two issues with his operator planning to live in one side and rent out the other. First, he was concerned about debt refinancing if things went poorly. The operator claimed the creditor had pre-approved refinancing, and later disappeared. Scott Sutherland believes he was too trusting. He recognizes he could have taken additional steps, like calling the lender.[25:00] The second issue Scott Sutherland identified was that a partner was acting as a contractor, but they lacked a contract clearly stating what that person would make. He attempted to persuade his fellow investors to hammer this detail out on paper: "We all need to only make money if the deal makes money." [25:13] A simple provision limiting the amount the contractor could charge would have prevented this from becoming an issue.[26:00] Scott also adds that having sponsors in the same position as you helps: "You want [sponsors] to worry more about the performance of the asset than you. If you've got a structure where the sponsor makes money no matter what happens, that's a non-starter." A sponsor who has this concern is more motivated to make the deal successful.[28:00] While Scott Sutherland knew and trusted his sponsor, he could never have anticipated what ultimately happened. The sponsor, who had previously been reliable, walked away from all of his investors when this deal went south.[30:50] Poor communication with the sponsor was also a red flag: "When they want your money and they aren't getting back to you quickly, it makes you wonder how they're going to be when they have your money."[32:50] Scott Smith points out how networking failed Scott Sutherland: "The true value of your network is in information that isn't disclosed."Postmortem Results: What Investors Can Learn From This Bad BeatThe two Scotts evaluate what could have been differently, and ultimately see this bad deal as a lesson in risk. Scott Sutherland sums this up succinctly as: "Knowing bats 1,000." [35:10] The two investors acknowledge that money can be hard to recover, but that losses can be lessons in resilience and better judgment.
