***Guest AppearanceCredits to:https://www.youtube.com/@larryshakman "The Real Estate Radio Show | Jay Conner | The Private Money Authority"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdyWho_RwPg&t=244s In the world of real estate investing, access to funding is crucial. Jay Conner, a seasoned expert in private money lending, brings a wealth of knowledge to those looking to elevate their investing game. On a recent episode of the Raising Private Money podcast, Jay Conners joins Larry Shakman on the Real Estate Radio Show, and shares how private money transforms the landscape for investors and why it could be a game-changer for those looking to enter the market without depending on traditional bank loans.The Concept of Private MoneyPrivate money in real estate revolves around securing funds from individual investors rather than institutional lenders like banks. Jay explains that this approach provides unparalleled flexibility. As a borrower, you can set the terms and conditions, including interest rates, loan periods, and the loan-to-value ratio. This power dynamic shift is significant compared to the traditional loan process, where banks dictate terms.Why Choose Private Money?Jay outlines several strategic advantages of using private money:Control Over Terms: As the borrower, you establish the rules—eliminating the tedious approval processes and credit checks typically required by banks.Fast Access to Funds: Investors can close deals quickly, often within seven days, making their offers more competitive in fast-moving markets.Unlimited Potential: Because there is no limit to the number of private lenders you can work with, there's also no cap on the amount you can borrow. This provides a pathway to scaling your investment portfolio more aggressively.Building Relationships with LendersJay emphasizes the importance of cultivating relationships with potential lenders, often within one's personal or professional network. Many individuals are not aware of the benefits of shifting their investments from traditional savings to real estate through self-directed IRAs or liquid capital. By educating them, investors open up new avenues for funding. Jay shares an anecdote about raising over $2 million in less than 90 days just by teaching his network about private lending.Finding Motivated SellersUnderstanding where to find deals is as crucial as having the funds to purchase them. Jay discussed how he connects with motivated sellers, focusing on for-sale-by-owners (FSBOs) and properties not listed on the traditional market. He leverages Google pay-per-lead vendors, ensuring that potential sellers reach out to him, creating warmer and more fruitful conversations. This proactive approach not only saves time but also enhances negotiation power by making investors a welcome guest rather than an unsolicited cold caller.Structuring Deals for Maximum ProfitJay outlines a threefold strategy for maximizing profits on deals:Buying Right: Use private money to purchase at a discount and always aim to buy a property at 50% or below the after-repaired value.Efficient Selling: Whether flipping or opting for a rent-to-own agreement, the goal is to secure a substantial return on investment quickly.Receiving Multiple Checks: Jay's method ensures investors receive payments at different stages—when buying, holding, and selling. This flow of funds supports the cash flow and adds to the profitability of each transaction.ConclusionJay Conner's insights on private money reveal a blueprint for real estate success that goes beyond traditional financing methods. By tapping into private money and strategically appr

***Guest AppearanceCredit to:https://www.youtube.com/@BryceMatheson "Raising Private Money Without Begging or Selling – with Jay Conner"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5CLJHif2RsWhen it comes to real estate investment, securing funding is often the most daunting aspect of closing a deal. Jay Conner, a seasoned expert in private lending, offers invaluable insights for both budding and veteran investors. As discussed in a recent podcast hosted by Bryce Matheson, Jay breaks down the art of leveraging private money to fuel real estate ventures. Here's a comprehensive look at the strategies and insights shared by Jay Conner during the podcast episode.Understanding Private Money LendingPrivate money lending involves securing funds from individuals rather than traditional financial institutions. Jay emphasizes the significant role private money has played in transforming his real estate business, especially when traditional funding routes, like bank loans, become unavailable. For Jay, the journey into private money began out of necessity. In 2009, when his reliable line of credit was abruptly closed, he turned to private money following the advice of a fellow investor friend. This pivotal move not only sustained his business but enabled it to thrive.The Mindset of a Private Money TeacherOne key takeaway from Jay's approach is the mindset shift required to succeed in private money lending. He advises that instead of viewing oneself as desperate or in need of begging, one should adopt the role of a teacher. Jay emphasizes educating potential private lenders—ordinary people who might not even realize the potential of their idle funds—about the benefits and mechanics of private lending. This educational approach not only builds rapport but also establishes trust, which is crucial in this domain.Navigating the Private Money LandscapeJay shares a strategic method for managing and attracting private lenders without appearing desperate: separating the conversation about the lending program from the deals themselves. This involves first educating potential lenders about the attractive interest rates and security features of real estate investment, based on sound loan-to-value ratios. Only once they express interest does he present them with actual deals. This tactic keeps the process professional and positions the investor as someone offering an opportunity, rather than seeking a favor.Building and Expanding Your NetworkFor those concerned about a limited network, Jay suggests building connections through organizations like Business Networking International (BNI), which facilitates leads and introductions within professional circles. Additionally, Jay underlines the importance of using one's existing community connections, like church groups or local clubs, to identify potential lenders who are seeking better returns on their investments.Structuring Deals and Ensuring ComplianceIn his podcast discussion, Jay mentions the importance of structuring deals appropriately to remain compliant with SEC regulations, especially when involving multiple lenders per deal. By focusing on single-family home investments, he avoids complications with syndication and pooling, offering each lender a direct loan secured by a deed of trust. This approach not only offers peace of mind to the lenders but also simplifies the entire lending process.Rates, Terms, and TransparencyDespite market fluctuations, Jay Conner has maintained consistent interest rates—8% for first position and 10% for junior positions—since 2009. His transparent method of outlining lender benefits and security measures contributes to building a reliable investor network. Offering features like a 90-day call option for

In a recent episode of the "Raising Private Money" podcast, Jay Conner explores the fascinating world of real estate investments with special guest Ray Hightower. The episode sheds light on Ray's journey of raising over $3,000,000 in private money for commercial real estate deals. This blog post will delve into the takeaway points from their discussion, focusing on Ray's transition from the tech industry to real estate, his preferred asset class, and his effective methods for attracting private investors.From Technology to Real EstateRay Hightower's entry into real estate is both motivating and informative. His career began in the dynamic field of technology, where he held a degree in computer science and gained extensive experience working for Fortune 500 companies. He eventually founded and managed his technology company for over two decades. Upon achieving significant success, he sold his tech company and transitioned into multifamily real estate.This career switch was driven by the potential for equity building and the unique advantages offered by real estate investments, including capital preservation, intrinsic land value, insurance protection, and steady cash flow from rent payments.Why Multifamily Properties?When asked about his choice of asset class, Ray prefers multifamily properties, particularly those in the 50 to 150-unit range. He appreciates various asset classes including single-family and retail spaces, although office properties pose challenges due to the shift towards remote work. Multifamily properties, however, are a more stable investment because people always need housing.Focusing on properties with 50 to 150 units allows Ray to ensure professional management without facing direct competition from large private equity firms. This approach enables effective property management while pursuing valuable deals that larger entities might overlook.Structuring Deals with Private MoneyA critical part of the episode highlights how Ray structures his deals using private money. His approach involves limited partners (LPs) and general partners (GPs) within limited liability corporations (LLCs). Ray employs a 70%-30% ownership split between LPs and GPs.Private investors are primarily looking for excellent stewardship of their investments, and Ray's meticulous oversight ensures their money is managed carefully. He compares the investor's journey to a scouting trip, emphasizing how crucial it is to ensure safety and improvement in property investments.Attracting Private Money: Trust and MethodologyThe discussion then moves to how important trust is in attracting private money. Jay highlights that private lenders often invest in the operator rather than the deal itself. Ray builds on this idea by outlining a four-step method he learned from his mentor, Hunter Thompson: attract, educate, nurture, and close.**1. Attract:** Initial attention is garnered toward investment opportunities through effective networking, an online presence, and valuable content distribution.**2. Educate:** Comprehensive information about the investment process and potential returns is provided to build credibility. Education enhances not only the learner's knowledge but also boosts the educator's standing.**3. Nurture:** Developing strong relationships is essential. Continually adding value through education, connections, events, and podcasts builds trust, showing potential investors that their interests and finances are genuinely taken care of.**4. Close:** If the steps of attraction, education, and nurturing are executed with a giving spirit, the final investment commitment often follows naturally, without direct solicitation.The Power of Mindset in Building PartnershipsTowards the end of the episode, the conversation shifts to the importance of mindset in busines

How can real estate investors build strong relationships with brokers to win more deals in a competitive market?   In this episode of the podcast, Agostino Pintus shares valuable insights on how real estate investors can build credibility and win more deals by fostering strong relationships with brokers. He emphasizes the importance of creating a professional credibility book, which serves as a high-level business plan that showcases an investor's company, target assets, and team. Agostino also discusses the significance of understanding brokers' needs and structuring deals accordingly, rather than focusing solely on the investor's desires. Additionally, he introduces the PASE (Practical, Action, Social, Emotional) methodology, which helps investors calibrate their communication style to better connect with brokers and build lasting relationships.   Agostino Pintus is a real estate investor, developer, and entrepreneur with more than 17 years of experience in real estate. He currently oversees strategic partnerships, capital development, and platform development for Realty Dynamics Equity Partners, an investment firm specializing in commercial asset acquisition and asset management services.   00:00:00 - 00:02:00 - The Importance of a Credibility Book - A credibility book is like a high-level business plan that showcases your company, target assets, and team. - It should be professionally put together and include information about your business, target properties, and team members' bios. - A well-crafted credibility book can make the difference between getting a call back from a broker or not.   00:02:01 - 00:07:00 - Structuring Deals to Meet Brokers' Needs - Always call the broker and find out what the seller wants before sending an LOI. - Structure the deal to meet the seller's needs, which may include terms, timing, or even non-monetary incentives. - Be mindful of your reputation and avoid submitting lowball offers that could damage your credibility.   00:07:01 - 00:11:00 - Building Your Personal Brand - The real estate community is tight-knit, and your personal brand is crucial to your success. - Your personal brand encompasses the way you look, act, speak, and present yourself through marketing collateral. - A strong, cohesive personal brand can help you win deals, while a disjointed or unprofessional brand can hinder your success.   00:11:01 - 00:17:00 - The PASE Methodology for Effective Communication - PASE stands for Practical, Action, Social, and Emotional, which are qualities everyone possesses to varying degrees. - Understanding a broker's dominant PASE trait allows you to calibrate your communication style to better connect with them. - Adapting your language and approach based on whether a broker is action-oriented, practical, social, or emotional can help you build stronger relationships.   00:17:01 - 00:22:00 - Cultivating More Than Just a Handshake Relationship - Building strong relationships with brokers is essential for success in real estate investing. - Remembering personal details about brokers, such as their dreams, kids' names, or unique facts about them, can help create a more meaningful connection. - By helping brokers achieve their goals, you can leverage the reciprocity bias, making them more likely to help you in return.   Quotes:    "Reputation is everything in this business. And if you lose it, you're done. You're baked. You're done." - Agostino Pintus   "One broker will make you money. Two brokers will make you rich.

Structuring Deals, Putting out Fires and Getting Clients to the Closing TableWe delivered a Special Edition of Poised for Exit today and had the privilege of interviewing two experts on how collaboration works and why it can make or break a deal. Brett Larson, M&A Attorney with Messerli Kramer and Colin Johnson, Managing Director at Wipfli Corporate Finance were our guests and talked about how they work together structuring deals, putting out fires and getting their clients to the closing table. When it comes to achieving the best outcome for a business exit, using the right team with essential areas of expertise makes all the difference. Colin says it all starts by understanding and aligning with the owner's goals and sometimes he has to work to help the owner discover what they really want. Colin's investment banking skills and background make him the kind of advisor owners believe has their back. Colin won't take a deal unless he believes he can get it done.  Brett agreed that the owner's goals are at the top when helping them decide the right path for exit. Brett and Colin have a clear understanding of how to work together collaboratively. Sometimes Brett is driving and sometimes Colin is in the lead yet each know when to step back to let the other take over. Brett says that when an owner comes to him late in the game, for instance already having a Letter of Intent, he needs to "get smart fast" on what's happening with the owner's business and the owner in terms of assessing and mitigating risk as much as possible. The key to keeping momentum going and to avoid deal fatigue is to have the right people on the team. With the right expertise at the table, the flow of the transaction takes less time thereby reducing cost and stress for the owner and everyone else. Listen to the episode to learn more about their take on market conditions and what owners should do to prepare themselves for a future sale. Contact Brett Larson here and Colin Johnson hereConnect with Julie on LinkedIn!It's never too early to plan for your future exit - grab a copy of Julie's 'Free Ebook' here.Thank you to our show sponsors!  Sunbelt Business Advisors and Trust PointAre you ready for your best exit?

And the reason why we did that is, you know, typically investors want to see a defined time horizon on what their investment is going to look like. [00:00:36] Sam Wilson: Joel Florek is a multifamily and RV resort investor with $18 million in assets under management. The portfolio of properties is based in Indiana and Michigan. Joel, welcome to the show.  [00:00:47] Joel Florek: Hey, thank you so much for having me, happy to be here today.  [00:00:50] Sam Wilson: Pleasure's mine. Three questions I ask every guest who comes to the show, in 90 seconds or less: where did you start? Where are you now? How did you get there?  [00:00:57] Joel Florek: Started with a little four-unit building fresh out of college. My parents helped me with the down payment, got the bank to finance the rest. And I, I house hacked it, lived in one unit, rented out the others. As you said, now, just about 150 units, you know, 200 site campground in the mix, family, kids, living the dream. Couldn't be happier. [00:01:18] Sam Wilson: So you got out of college and you bought a four-unit property, and then you just kept going with real estate. Was that the plan all along?  [00:01:26] Joel Florek: I knew as I was ending my college career, that for me, financial independence was the priority. The means that which I achieved that, but I wasn't really sure how things were going to shake out. [00:01:40] Joel Florek: I knew multifamily was going to be a part of it. And that four-unit was the first step. I had a corporate job as a program manager. So had my day job, you know, picked up that property and it just so happened. I was able to work out a number of creatively finance deals to be able to grow that portfolio pretty quick, a 16 unit with just $5,000 down, bought a three-year unit on a credit card. [00:02:07] Joel Florek: And so, did a number of fun things and other seller finance, low money down deal to pick up an eight-unit. You know, it was over a period of three years, those deals, but this first 31 units where, you know, however, the heck I could figure out how to put the deal together and buy it. That's how I did it. [00:02:27] Joel Florek: I tried finding some investors. No one really wanted to give me the time of day or trust me with their money that early, but I just said, you know, screw it. I'll figure it out and make it work. And I did. And things got a little bit easier, but there's still challenges and challenges that you face every day. [00:02:47] Sam Wilson: How did you know or what gave you the confidence to figure out how to do those really creative seller finance deals? I mean, that's typically not something you're like, oh, okay. I got a four-unit. Now I'm going to go out and buy a 16-unit property. I'm gonna negotiate it to a point where the seller is willing to take five grand and trust me to get it done. I mean, that's something like a needle in a haystack for most people. How'd you, how'd you do that?  [00:03:08] Joel Florek: Yeah. Yeah. You know, I tried every other way to buy it. It was a question I asked right away, you know, would you guys be willing to keep any money on the table as a seller second position, or what have you? I got a degree in finance. [00:03:23] Joel Florek: I mean, I don't want to say I was, you know, some financial genius, what have you, but I was familiar with lending and the process and some of the avenues, and of course, getting on, do some Google research and being on BiggerPockets early in, you know, in my career, you see a lot of that stuff. So I asked some of those questions, but ultimately, we built trust over a period of months in that particular deal, that 16 unit. And through that trust that I built with the sellers, they actually came back to me with the proposal after I exhausted every other opportunity that I could, you know, try to put together. And they said, Hey, you know, we like you. We think we can get this done if we keep a little money on the table. And again, originally they said no to that, but they came back, gave me the proposal. And I said, you know, let me call my bank. Let's talk stock in a few days. [00:04:14] Sam Wilson: Right, yeah. For five grand down. That sounds, that sounds like a sweetheart deal assuming that the place was, you know, partially habitable.  [00:04:22] Sam Wilson: Oh, it was beautiful. It was 16 units on the water. Everyone had a deck porch overlooking, you know, all two-bedroom, you know, 1100, 1200 square foot units, carports. It was great. Small town though. And that's been kind of, my niche is I have been in smaller towns and that has allowed me to kind of grow. [00:04:44] Sam Wilson: Now. I've been a little more competitive of, of an area I'm in, you know, larger Chicago, MSA, but still. I'm playing in Chesterton, Indiana. I'm playing in Southwest, Michigan, Three Oaks where I have, you know, it's a 40 unit apartment complex that we bought. And the only other multifamily is a two, three units in the entire town. [00:05:06] Sam Wilson: It's a tiny town, 3000, 4000 people, but it's down the road from a major vacation destination, New Buffalo, and you know, you're still a short shot, St. Joseph with Whirlpool headquarters. And so I play in these smaller markets. Niles is a town of, you know, 20, 30,000. That's the next exit up from south bend where Notre Dame is. [00:05:28] Sam Wilson: But again, smaller MSA, smaller town, lot less investors out clamoring for these deals. So, gives me a shot to get in and be able to, to build a portfolio.  [00:05:40] Sam Wilson: Yeah. That's really a compelling thesis, especially, I mean, it's all within striking distance from where you live currently, is that right? [00:05:49] Joel Florek: Originally, no. The first portfolio that I built up was all an iron mountain. So I built that 23 units in Iron Mountain, Michigan, which now is like 500 miles from me. But that's where I was out of college. I lived in the town, bought the units and that town eventually chased my wife down here to where she's from. [00:06:09] Joel Florek: And we're managing those units in-house, 500 miles away for years, went really well. Sold off that portfolio last year, did a lot of trading last year. But now yes, all our portfolio is, you know, more or less within our area that I have a management team, takes care of the day-to-day campgrounds like four and a half hours away so we're kind of back in that boat again.  [00:06:33] Sam Wilson: And that, that sounds like sorta what you'd have to do, I would think, you know, if you're buying 16 unit properties, things like that in various small towns, like one, you're going to have to know the small towns, I would think. And two, it needs to be within striking distance probably of where you live. [00:06:50] Sam Wilson: This isn't the, Hey, we're buying 400 units in Orlando. We can manage it from Cincinnati pipe a by it's.  [00:06:57] Joel Florek: Correct, correct. And, and even so, you know, I've had so many other deals have been brought to me where if they were closer to my portfolio, I'd say, yeah, absolutely. But it's an hour in the wrong direction yet from where my stuff is. [00:07:13] Joel Florek: So it's like, yeah, that would have been a great 20 units to pick up, but it's just a little too far to put onto my team for management. So it won't work for us. So yeah, you're certainly spot on, but my last purchase was a 44 unit. We just closed last month. [00:07:31] Joel Florek: Last August closed on 48 units, closed on a 40 unit December before that. So right now we're kind of playing in that 50 unit range is, is where we're finding that can be competitive going out in the marketplace that I'm still seeing the cash flow and the returns that are attractive enough.  [00:07:54] Sam Wilson: Tell me on the cap rate basis. Where are these units falling for you as a small, I'm using your term, small-town investor, like what do you see on a cap rate basis for a 50 unit and under multifamily property?  [00:08:05] Joel Florek: It's a loaded question. It's a loaded question. So, I love these conversations because, you know, it obviously would be super easy if we could just be like, oh yeah, this is what the cap rate is, like super easy. But you know, of course, it depends what class of asset we're talking about. [00:08:25] Joel Florek: The 44 unit that we just closed, you know, this is over in Chester, Indiana. It's a small town but it's very much a part of the Chicago, Northwest Indiana, MSA. That's definitely more of a dense Metro area or suburban. But, you know, I'll use like my 48 unit that I closed over Niles as an example of the 40 unit. [00:08:46] Joel Florek: Both of those we purchased at probably like high five low six cap, depending on the, how you would underwrite. But in both cases, there were very clear opportunities for value-add. The 48 unit, for example, our units are $250 a unit under market rate in as is condition.  [00:09:09] Sam Wilson: Wow.  [00:09:10] Joel Florek: So the challenge that you have in many of these markets though, is there are very few comps for you to simply go out and be like, oh yeah, that's what the market is for these units. It's like, you know, like, yeah, there's this other complex, but those units are kind of junk, but they're getting that? Like, I think we could probably do better. So again, you really got to know your markets and you can find these amazing diamonds in the rough where it's like, wow, this thing's killer. [00:09:39] Sam Wilson: Right? Right. That is a challenge. Something I wouldn't have thought about. What are you comping this up against, especially if you're the only, what'd you say, you bought a property and you were the only property in town outside of a triplex or two triplex. [00:09:50] Joel Florek: Yeah, Three Oaks. Exactly. So you're not drawing comps necessarily from that town. What you're doing is you're looking at all the little towns within a 20-minute drive and trying to say, where are all of those little towns at? And is there any reason why this little town wouldn't be the same because, you know, people commute from one town to the next, to the next. So, you know, they live in our particular community because it's got this adorable little downtown and bus stop happens to be, you know, right at the property. You go to a great school district in the next town over.  [00:10:28] Sam Wilson: That's awesome. Tell me about financing these deals. Are you the majority owner in them? Do you have, have you been able to build this portfolio on your own? What's that look like?  [00:10:37] Joel Florek: Yeah, so like the 48 unit, that was a purchase that I did on my own, the 40 unit. Recently a 44 unit purchase, as well as a 15 unit townhome portfolio that we bought. Those were all syndicated deals. In each of those cases, I would be the largest owner in any of those deals. In all cases have been financing through larger regional or community. Banks that have an emphasis on lending in commercial real estate, particularly a, you know, strong multifamily arm. So, I've got a shortlist of a half dozen different lenders that I know are competitive in the area and have the benefit of being, you know, right near Chicago. They get, we talk about small towns, but again, I'm just over an hour. Downtown loop Chicago. So we have a huge number of lenders available that play all day in the Chicago MSA. [00:11:37] Joel Florek: And you can convince those lenders to stretch out if you build a relationship. So they might take a little risk on one deal. And if we have a good, you know, good relationship, they'll expand that beyond their normal footprint on a client by client basis.  [00:11:53] Sam Wilson: Got it. Tell me about this 15 unit. We talked about this a little bit. It was kind of a unique financing where you did a buyout, I think, of your investors or something. [00:12:03] Joel Florek: We're right in the process of executing the exit for our investors. Just about three years ago, back in 2019. I purchase this 15-unit townhome portfolio in Chesterton, Indiana. [00:12:14] Joel Florek: And the deal's been great. We've exceeded every metric along the way. Our investors have been getting about 10% cash on cash returns over the last year. You know, they get their monthly distribution and it's been everything that we expected it to be and more. Operationally, the way that we structured the contract, the syndication is that the general partners would have the right to buy out the limited partner shares via an 18% IRR after a 36-month period. And the reason why we did that is, you know, typically investors want to see a defined time horizon on what their investment is going to look. Right. That's why you typically hear 3, 5, 7-year time horizon for syndications. Well, we're really sure. [00:13:05] Joel Florek: I mean, it's this awesome portfolio and I'd love to hang on to these things potentially long-term. So from that standpoint, why kill the golden goose? I looked at it back in 2019. I said, well, I don't know what the world is gonna look like three years from now. And you know, I do know though that there's a good chance that I may just want to keep hanging onto these things for as long as I own properties in this area, it fits that definition of that like upper-class B class, a very insulated, like it's going to be super hard to near impossible for someone to build something new and compete with me. So, so yeah, so we structured this, so investors have a defined time horizon on their investment. They also have an expectation, you know, that the buyout is based on an IRR, which makes it really clear how we're going to define what their shares are valued at come to exit, and then we can just have a really clean refinanced, buy out the investors. And, you know, I'll be able to hang onto this deal for as long as we have it. [00:14:10] Sam Wilson: Right. Yeah. You can buy out the investors you know, via refinance. Are you putting any cash into the deal as well when you buy them out in order to make it hit that 18 IRR or has it just worked out such that, you know, you're able to do this with a refinance and plus the cash flows and they hit their number? [00:14:26] Joel Florek: In this particular deal, we'll have no problem with the refinance.  [00:14:30] Sam Wilson: Got it. Got it.  [00:14:31] Joel Florek: Yeah, there, there won't be any issues whatsoever.  [00:14:34] Sam Wilson: Cool. Tell me about the RV outdoor hospitality campground. What's that look like and why the, why the left turn into that?  [00:14:42] Joel Florek: You know, part of it is just want to get a different challenge. I feel like apartments, you know, it's kinda the same thing over and over and over again. It's the exact same business plan, more or less the same problems that you ended up dealing with over and over and over again. And one of the things I was concerned about was burnout. I didn't want to get burned out of multifamily and then make some rash decision to say, you know, throw my hands up. I'm out of this game.  [00:15:11] Joel Florek: I want to make sure that I still love and enjoy all the benefits that come along with multifamily for the long term. And knowing my own personality, I think a great way to do that is to have a professional distraction that can pull me away and let me just get some of those creative juices out in another manner.  [00:15:32] Joel Florek: Beyond that, there are, you know, there's a whole list of reasons. Number one, cash flow is generally much stronger. You're buying at eight to 12 caps in that space and I'm getting the same financing on those properties as I can multifamily. So right there, you know that yeah, cash flow is going to be much stronger. The number of levers that you can pull when it comes to adding value to those properties is infinitely larger. Kind of a cool thing, there was an old airstream that was for sale on the highway. And we said, screw it, let's buy that thing. So we, we did that on a whim, bought that the other month because one of the things we want to do is park models. [00:16:12] Joel Florek: So I don't have to get any approvals from any agencies to renovate this airstream, put it on my property and rent it out as like an Airbnb. So what we're going to end up doing, our idea, our vision, as we'd like to get five, six airstreams and do like a little airstream village on the property, string lights through the trees. [00:16:32] Joel Florek: So that's one of those, like I say, just kind of creative, fun things that we get to do in this space. My wife wanted to kind of get involved in business. She has no desire to get involved in multifamily, but the campground thing was really appealing to her. You're really doing short-term rentals and this and that, but we wanted something that was scalable and larger than just going and buying one vacation rental. [00:16:56] Joel Florek: So this fit the mold. We have a team of six employees who are on-site who take care of all the day-to-day operations for us. And I was able to hire and bring onto the team some of my family members as well to help us in certain capacities. So, it's become this family business for us and we're just in the beginning of it. [00:17:17] Joel Florek: Pretty cool thing, you know, like I say, it's yeah, yeah. It's pretty fun. And like I say, from a cash flow standpoint, stronger cash flow, more opportunities to add value. Again, still a very scalable business. You'll get, you know, one of the largest multifamily owners in the country, Sam Zell, while he also is in mobile home parks. [00:17:40] Joel Florek: And he's also the largest owner of RV parks around the country. So, there's a reason why he plays in those sandboxes because, you know, they're, they're very, very interesting and lucrative financial investments within the real estate space.  [00:17:56] Sam Wilson: I love it. I love it. Joel, thank you for taking the time to share with us kind of your story of how you've grown your portfolio, how you found value and found out ways to add value, especially buying in small towns and just that, that unique strategy. [00:18:09] Sam Wilson: I think that's the cool thing about real estate is there's just, there's no end to really the unique ways that people have figured out, Hey, this, this is the way it works both for your personality and for your you know, for your own checkbook. It's like, okay, this works for my life and for how we want to do things. [00:18:24] Sam Wilson: And then of course I love the campground. What'd you call it a professional distraction. So that's absolutely awesome. If our listeners want to get in touch with you or learn more about you, what is the best way to do that.  [00:18:36] Joel Florek: Yeah, feel free to give me a call 9 0 6 4 5 8 8 3 5 6. Find me on Facebook, would love to chat more. [00:18:43] Sam Wilson: Awesome. Joel, thank you for your time today. We'll certainly include all of that information as well in the show notes, have a great rest of your day.  [00:18:49] Joel Florek: Awesome. Hey, thank you very much for having me.

As investors, it's our goal to find opportunities to turn a passive investment into a major return. But when things go wrong, what can we do to ensure that we aren't positioned to take a major loss?  In 2009, Hans Box took a leap of faith, quit his job at PriceWaterhouseCooper, and bought a handful of rental properties. Under a client's mentorship, he invested a substantial amount of his net worth into a deal overseeing 800 units of multifamily housing. When things started to go wrong, Hans's partners voted for him and his current business partner to take over the deal, and he was able to take the investment from the negatives to a 24% return.  Today, Hans brings his CPA skills to the podcast to share the story of how salvaging a high-risk deal informed his unique outlook on investing. You'll learn what a deal should look like and how to interpret it, what you can do to minimize and mitigate your risk as you structure it, and how creating reliable streams of passive income have allowed Hans to focus on the things he loves the most about investing. Key Takeaways How Hans' first deal taught him the value of being able to remove an underperforming sponsor or manager.  How partners, sponsors, managers, and operating teams should perform under ideal circumstances. How to factor and evaluate what a return is actually going to look like, financial strength, and profitability. Why lifestyle investing isn't about sitting on a beach for the rest of your life.  The unique value of being both a mentor and a mentee - and why tracking your progress is so essential to effective coaching.

The “Pre-foreclosure” means, it's in default and it is known to the public. Important information to know: each state has its own rules and regulation about foreclosures. Whereas the “Foreclosure” is when the attorney is announcing or advertising the details about the loan that is being foreclosed. The “Post-foreclosure” is when the property has already been foreclosed and the bank now owns the property and sells it to the public. To learn more about the process of finding and buying and a foreclosure home, continue watching this video.

It is all too common for real estate investors to get initially excited about a deal, only to get deflated when that deal gets rejected by a hard money lender. What are some of the most notable reasons hard money lenders say no? What are the most important skills real estate investors need to have to increase their chances of getting approved? In this episode, investor and hard money lender Ryan Wright joins us to discuss how to win with the right lenders.    Three Things We Learned Educate yourself on what gets a deal approvedThe 3 parts of a real estate deal that can lead to hard money lenders saying no is not being clear on the pricing of the property, the cost and scope of repairs, and the involvement of a contractor.    Don’t delegate the pricingRealtors are in the retail business so they see deals differently, and they don’t always have the best pricing information and knowledge. Knowing how to do comps comes from experience and research. It’s important to learn how to price properties ourselves so we can approach deals authoritatively.   Find motivated sellers with a problem you can solveSome people don’t want to deal with the stress of owning a home, and those people are often willing to sell at a discount. We can find good prospects at city violations court, where the stress of being fined may be enough for them to want to sell.    Guest Bio-  Ryan Wright is an Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor & Hard Money Lender. He has been a prolific fix & flip entrepreneur since 2002 and has mentored thousands of new real estate investors during that time. He first started in real estate as an agent, along with his wife, almost 20 years ago. The success came quickly. The Salt Lake Board of Realtors named him “Real Estate Rookie of the Year” and his company won “Best of State” as well.    Despite these successes, he never truly experienced the time & money-freedom he thought would come with that career. So he knew that he needed to expand his reach and that led to the formation of his hard money lending company and ultimately to the launch of the Income Hacker Podcast.    For more information, visit https://www.dohardmoney.com/ and listen to the podcast here https://www.incomehacker.com/. 

There are many ways to structure a deal when it comes to real estate. No matter what the deal is there always needs to be 2 things. 1. A property 2. Funds While those two will come in many different forms it's pretty inevitable that they will be needed to structure a deal. Our guest this week Zamontae Stinson helps bring those 2 parts together. By utilizing his network and some intentional social media posting Zamontae has helped bring some big deals together. It's a special way of making things happen and there are some great tips to follow. Take a listen!

What are the different ways that you can structure deals creatively? You know, as unlimited as your mind is, you can structure deals creatively. I have seen students of mine structure deals that I haven't. They might start out with the one or two ways that we have discussed and the next thing you know there are couple more different options that are new or were never ever discussed, but proceeding out of prior discussions or experience. It's just comes by putting our minds together and making it work. So some of the ways that we have structured the deals are like vendor take backs, agreement for sale, taking possession of the property without having the title in your name, showing the vendor how it works to use a vendor take back, a lot of times the seller doesn't even know or they can't figure out how it can be good for both parties. I usually find it best to start by asking enough questions to find out what your sellers problem or pain point is, then you can possibly solve that problem for him/her. The proper way to negotiate a creative financing deal is to look at the other party as a partner.Think in terms of "how can I make money by getting him what he wants".

Can you even conceive of structuring a deal with multiple investors to purchase a 250 unit property in a major metropolitan city? That's what the guest on this episode of The Flip King just did. He closed the deal last week. Joe Fairless has become a pretty well known real estate figure through his daily podcast, “The Best Real Estate Investing Advice” and has been on the fast track learning curve to become a high profile investor since leaving his advertising career. In this episode he shares some of the details of that 250 unit deal and much more.   Raising money for complex real estate deals comes down to one simple thing.   Do you know what it is? Relationships. While Joe Fairless has not personally met every person who's invested in a real estate deal with him, he's connected with most of them through personal relationships, either by introduction or connection through another deal. He believes that working to establish good rapport and friendship with the people you work with on real estate deals goes a long way toward future deals and future partnerships. Hear how Joe put together the money for his latest multi unit deal on this episode of The Flip King.   General Partners, Limited Partners, and lots more covered in this episode.   Do you know the difference between a General Partner, a Limited Partner, and how the proceeds from a real estate deal should be split among them? Joe Fairless opens the books on his latest deal to reveal how he was able to pull together the money for it and how he structured it so that everyone involved was happy with their piece of the pie. It's not something that comes easy to most investors so grab your pen and paper to take notes. Joe's got it down and is ready to let you in on the secrets of how he does it.   Are you structuring your real estate business so you can sell it one day?   If you're like most investors, you're trying to set up your business to cash flow so that you and your family can enjoy a passive stream of income your whole lives. That's great, but it's just the first goal. What happens when you're ready to get out of the business altogether? Could someone else feel confident that if they bought your business, it would continue to run smoothly for them like it has for you?
