Podcast appearances and mentions of valentine group

In today's special episode, we sat down with the hosts of Thinking OTB, Steve Valentine and Bernie Espinosa. We've known Steve and Bernie for years, and it was awesome to be featured on their show, talking about our story, where the market's at right now, and what agents need to be doing right now to set themselves up for real wealth.    Bernie is the Vice President of the sales division of Lawyers Title in Scottsdale, AZ. She brings a wealth of knowledge, not only in the title field but in the overall real estate industry.    Steve Valentine is the Founder and CEO Valentine Group. With more than 20 years of real estate experience, he's fanatical about handcrafting the right strategy for each client using his toolbox of absurdly effective techniques.   With everything happening in the market, there's a thick air of uncertainty, uneasiness and even pre-2008 panic among agents. The truth is, it's too soon to tell what's going to happen, and freaking out about it won't get us in the mindset required to survive if the market does indeed hit a down-shift.    Remember: where there's panic, there's rash decisions and knee jerk reactions, not rational preparation.      Guest Info   Bernie is the Vice President of the sales division of Lawyers Title in Scottsdale, AZ.

This week on Thinking OTB we're bringing things a little closer to home to give you a little peek behind the Valentine Group curtain. Nicole Porter, one of our Rockstar agents is joining us on the podcast to talk about her life before joining up with Steve and how thinking outside the box and realizing her limitless potential has changed the way she views herself and her career as a real estate agent.   The truth is her story before joining up with Steve is unfortunately not a unique one. It's been a hard couple of years for everyone. For some of us, it's been difficult to recover the flow we might have had professionally before, and it's been a game of catch-up ever since. Nicole found herself in that very same situation, having moved from Michigan to Arizona and working two jobs and trying to make her real estate career work for her. Sometimes the goals we set for ourselves take hard work and learning from what isn't working so that we can keep finding those solutions to keep your momentum going.   “I think your story represents what a lot of people listening go through in that you haven't reached the end goal yet. Like maybe you know that you have this momentum and that you're growing, and it wasn't just success just falling out of the sky for you. You had perseverance, you had conviction, and you had a gut instinct of what you needed to do, and I think that that is super, super important.” – Bernie   There are two great takeaways from Nicole's story. And no, one of them is not finding a way to work with Steve and Bernie, we could all only be so lucky! The first takeaway is that it's not always easy starting something new. Sometimes it can be the hardest thing you've ever done. It takes hard work and dedication to make those changes, and if the goal is true and right for you, the work is worth it. The second takeaway goes with the first, that if you're ready to work toward something you need to have the humility to know when you need help.   “The bigger moment, though, was her mental shift of whatever it takes to put me in a place that I can succeed. How do I be around somebody that I can learn from?” – Steve   Working in this industry as a real estate agent has great potential to help agents build wealth and strong professional roots so that they can help others achieve their legacy goals as well. It's not always easy, but if you keep working at it, if you keep growing and developing those outside the box ideas, it can take you places you never dreamed you would go.   “It's about finding the right team in the right place and being willing to do the work. It's not always just about the split conversations and who's getting what. Everybody wants to know, well, what about all that? And I would tell them, look, I've sacrificed so much, and even with the sacrifice I made, I still made almost double my income from prior years.” – Nicole   You can find Nicole at her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicoleporteraz/   Hey you!

Have you ever approached real estate like a math equation? Often there’s a very linear approach to what we do that enables us to develop habits and systems that work. But as today’s guest will tell you that’s not always the best approach. As a professional your job is to solve problems using all the resources you have at your disposal. Steve Valentine is the Owner of the Valentine Group with My Home Group in Peoria, Arizona. On today’s show Steve shares how he thinks outside of the box, a mentality informed by his father. Listen as Steve takes us through a pretty dark story of rising, falling, and coming back stronger and better than before.  On today’s show you’ll learn:-strategies that will help your clients-ways to think outside the box and color outside the lines sometimes-how you can leverage your license-why wholesalers (in our guests opinion) are… Find more of Steve’s content on Instagram @stevedvalentineFollow David on social @daviddmorse | David Morse is the CEO of Keller Williams Arizona Realty in Scottsdale & High Street North Phoenix, one of Arizona’s foremost brokerage leaders with over 350 agents and selling over $1.1 Billion in residential and commercial real estate each year.

On this episode of The Kevin and Fred Show, fellow Arizona Realtor and entrepreneur Steven Valentine returns. With over two decades in real estate, Steve is a wealth of knowledge on not only reinvention and what it takes to have longevity in this business. He also knows a lot about how to transcend the conventional real estate transaction and go beyond the listing. Our entire industry is centered on an asset class that people build income, wealth and empires on. Yet very few agents ever explore real estate investing opportunities in their own right. We’re often too busy trying to chase a quick paycheck, we miss out on the chance to build long-term wealth. This is a narrative Steve is hoping to change.    Steve is a Real Estate Strategist, Entrepreneur, Speaker, Author, and founder and CEO of Valentine Group. With more than 20 years of real estate experience, he’s fanatical about handcrafting the right strategy for each client using his toolbox of absurdly effective techniques. He’s more super-hero when it comes to real estate investing and in his relationships with clients, employees, and family. He out-right refused financial ruin to build a retirement-sustaining real estate portfolio of more than $15 million in value. A portfolio that is so diverse and has been so fun to create, he’s educating others to do the same. In the past 5 years Steve has created a real estate business that encompasses all of today’s top strategies including traditional real estate, flipping homes, buying off market opportunities, building wealth for himself, his team, and his clients.    The approach we take with a property can be the difference between getting a $4000 commission and a $15 000 real estate investing opportunity. But we can’t see that if we think from the perspective of a conventional transaction. We need to have the ability to take a 30,000 ft view of every specific real estate situation, and tailor the best approach. If we don’t make this shift, it’s impossible to build wealth in this business, and we’ll only go as far as our latest commission.    Guest Info   Steve is a real estate strategist, entrepreneur, speaker, author, and founder and CEO of Valentine Group.

Thanks to today’s guest, real estate entrepreneur, Steve Valentine, your opinion of realtors is about to be challenged. It was never Steve’s intent to get into real estate, however after a brief time in the automotive industry he was called to join his family’s real estate business as a third generation real estate entrepreneur. Steve found great success, however after a huge real estate crash in 2007 and a foreclosure of his own, he had to fight to get his business back and become a “wealth builder.”   Steve’s business journey is so inspiring, but what’s more is all the stories of generosity that go along with it. Be sure to listen in and find out all the ways he’s giving back and providing his community more opportunities each and every day. --   Question Highlights: What did your family teach you about business? What lessons did you learn? What did your family teach you about money? Why was losing everything a blessing? What’s your advice for people who are facing a huge obstacle? What is this new way of doing real estate? How are you different? What’s different about your employee policies? What are some tangible or profitable benefits of running your company this way? What’s behind you and your giving away 25% of your income? Where did your extreme spirit of generosity come from? And more…   In This Episode You Will Learn:   How Steve got his start in real estate and recovered from foreclosure How failure can make your rich Why being transparent can allow you to better help others Why Steve hates the word realtor What makes Steve’s real estate business so unique from others Why Steve offers his employees unlimited vacation time Why faith is necessary when determining your donations for the year The power and importance of writing your goals down When and where the idea of becoming a “wealth builder” began And so much more…   Steve’s Thoughts…   “I lost everything, I learned from it and this is how I can help you do it better than I did.”   “Every failure we have no matter if it’s big or small, as long as we learn from it it’s one more step up the ladder to something successful.”   “If you can look at your failures as rungs on a ladder, the more failure, the higher you’re going.”   “When you’re generous and your kids see it and catch it, you know you’ve arrived.”   “If I can hire efficient people and make my business super profitable, I can write checks.”   “I just want to write the checks.”   “If I give this, I can make it again tomorrow.”   “If we start with generosity vs. income, it changes your life and makes the world a better place.”   -- I've always said I was proud to be a third-generation Realtor. Although, looking back, I finally realize I am not a third-generation Realtor, but a third-generation Real Estate Entrepreneur. My grandmother, Essie Spencer, held her real estate license for 50 years. She practiced until the age of 80. My late father, Dan, practiced in real estate for over 40 years working together as a team with my mother, Debbie (who still practices). This is where my real estate venture began.   After short stint in the automotive industry, I gave real estate a shot.  For the first two years of my career, I sat at my dad’s desk listening to his calls, and sitting in on meetings, and learning how to conduct business. I don’t remember thinking I wanted this type of mentorship at the time, but now I know how valuable it was.  I learned customer service and how to conduct business. After my internship, I worked for my parents nearly 10 years. My wife, Wende, and I decided it was time for us to take what we had learned and forge ahead out from under the umbrella of my parents.   The real estate market crash of 2006 left us financially and emotionally devastated. In 2008, Wende and I founded Valentine Group. Through trial and error, and failing forward multiple times, we learned to become real estate entrepreneurs with a new way of doing business for a new generation of homeowners also recovering from the fallout from 2006. Since 2008, our group has served over 2500 families and continue to serve more than 200 families each year. We provide solid real estate solutions, designed for each individual client, each and every day.   One of the greatest things Wende and I have to offer, though Valentine Group’s diversification, is experience. When my father passed, one thing he said resonates in my head, “…there are very few people who will see the multiple markets we’ve seen in during your short 17 years in the business. We’ve witnessed the rapid rise in the real estate market in 2003 and 2004, and the astronomical prices and lotteries to purchase homes in 2005 and 2006. Then, the sudden crash in 2007.” How true. During this same crash, Wende and I made our way through our own foreclosure. This experience allowed us to truly and honestly help others though theirs. A sense of “normalcy” in the market began to return, for us, in 2010 and on into 2011 as we worked through decreasing inventory foreclosures and an increase in clients asking how to not only buy a primary residence, but how to purchase investment properties as well. By being as brave as our clients through the re-birth of the real estate market, we now, in 2016, have been blessed as our business grew from three to more than 11 employees. Eleven individuals in a strategic group, working together to serve our diverse clientele as we specialize in various real estate transactions. While we still proudly represent our clients in traditional buying and selling of homes for families, we are also now working with wholesalers and investors in building wealth through a variety of wealth building tools.   I’d leave it at that…. But the rest follows: This includes, but is not limited to, repurposing (or what some of you might know as “flipping”) homes, finding rental properties, using private funds to purchase long-term holdings which increases wealth for our investors. At the end of the day Valentine Group strives to provide multiple solutions for our clients from real estate advice, to wealth building strategies, to property management. Most Realtors measure their impact by the number of homes they sold, or the dollar volume homes sold, or he amount of commissions earned. While we can’t deny the significance of those stats, we feel it is more important to impact our clients lives by providing practical knowledge. We make sure we are there when they need advice or encouragement whether it's buying, selling, or renovation suggestions.   Resources:  http://www.Valentinegroupaz.com   FB: facebook.com/steve.valentine.522 Cell: 602-769-3803   --   For more stories and tips on becoming unapologetically wealthy, follow me @Chriswharder on Instagram and check out fortheloveofmoney.com.
