Key Takeaways: 
 
"I think with real estate, it's the fact that you have so many profit centers, you have your mortgage paid down, and you have your appreciation, and cash flow." - Keith Makse 
 
"We run completely remotely. Very much like real estate; if you have the right systems in place, you don't actually have to be there to manage these properties at all." - Keith Makse 
 
"It really does make that difference having that hospitality background to knowing that you can't please everybody, but you can really do a lot to please a lot of people and just making sure that you do whatever you can in order to get those five-star ratings." - Keith Makse 
 
"Number one in real estate -- taking action. You can research all you want; you can educate yourself as much as you want. But without taking action, it's just entertainment." - Keith Makse 
 
"And I also think that it's creativity, and you can look at all the problems that are out there, but to me, problems are just solutions that haven't been found yet. So looking for how do I get around this hurdle or bypass this issue or this problem?" - Keith Makse

Key Takeaways: 
"I would say, the biggest mistake that I see investors make is not analyzing all the expenses properly. They'll look at the cash flow, mortgage, and taxes, and then they determine they're going to make $700 a month. But in reality, when you really look at the numbers, maybe it's only $200 a month."- Scott Dillingham 
"One quick tip that I have my clients do for better due diligence that's super easy because numbers don't lie, ask the previous owner for his tax return. You can clearly see the expenses that are in that property." - Scott Dillingham 
"To make it easier for someone to be refinanced properly, it is best to try to stay with one broker or one lender as you grow. What will happen is, we can recycle documents. It's cumbersome to apply for a mortgage, but if you're with the same person, and they can help you grow, it's easier to update." - Scott Dillingham

Topics Covered: 
01:47 - How he stumbled on the renovation side of things in real estate 
03:34 - The biggest thing he advocates when doing residential renovations that have done so well for him in the commercial side of it 
05:23 - How to go about rehab and renovation when you're a completely new investor 
08:00 - Where to put your dollars when doing rehab on a limited budget 
11:25 - One thing he encourages people to do if they seriously consider the rehab and renovation strategy 
14:32 - Good sources to find good contractors 
Key Takeaways: 
"What I think is really critical is the establishment of an actual document. That's called a scope of work that can be given to every contractor. So you have a good comparison of quotes, and then you also hold people accountable because I've had everything itemized within that contract within that actual scope of work." - Van Sturgeon 
"If you want to get the best bang for your buck on a limited budget, those are the areas that I would look at, landscaping, so that can involve re-topping of the driveway, painting the garage doors, doing clean up of the hedges, very inexpensive things that all of a sudden dramatically increases the curb appeal." - Van Sturgeon 
"I strongly encourage people if you really want to be active in this business, you need to act as your own general contractor and not hire a general contractor. Because being a general contractor myself, in situations where a project is 50,000 to 100,000, my profit margin, something like that, would be somewhere around 30%. And so that stuff is a huge saving." - Van Sturgeon 
"By doing a renovation yourself and handling that aspect, it teaches you a new skill set that you can use when you can purchase your second, third, fifth property that you can then evaluate your property, it teaches you how to look at something walking in." - Van Sturgeon

Discover the five categories of thinking about money as simply a resource
Find out how to have a mindset shift of not trading your time for money

Key Takeaways: 
"One of the best exercises that I think someone can do to kind of capture and get their head around the goldfish bowl that they're in is to figure out what your time value of money is." - Paul Thompson
"One of the first things you want to get your head around is separating time from money. There's a saying that time equals money, and we're trained to exchange our time for money. And that's a huge mistake if you want to accomplish the things you want to do in your life. Money is simply a resource; you don't want to just be trapped into the framework of exchanging time for money." - Paul Thompson
"Value is subjective, so you want to go out into the marketplace and create value." - Paul Thompson
"You don't want more money; you want what money can do for you." - Paul Thompson
"Figure out what you want personally, figure out how to be resourceful enough to acquire the assets and the money that you need to do what's important to you. Do something that matters to you and your life." - Paul Thompson
"You have plenty of money for all the things in the world that you truly want." - Paul Thompson

02:16 - The adaptation Airbnb has to do during this pandemic 
04:33 - Getting projects amid the pandemic 
06:02 - Providing amenities for Airbnb properties renters are looking out for

09:41 - Long-term and short-term rental rates for single-family unit properties  
11:16 - How rural properties are maintained  
12:28 - Know what you're doing when running your numbers 
Key Takeaways: 
"I'd say with Airbnb, in general, the major shift is that if you're in a downtown core location that relies a lot on international travelers coming in, get your place booked up, then you're finding you have to pivot your strategy." - James Svetec 
"Any area within two to three hours drive of a populous downtown urban center, you see huge spikes in the numbers there. Inventory is getting completely booked up. So you can charge some pretty hefty rates compared to what you normally would, and you're going to see really, really high occupancy rates even through the winter." -James Svetec 
"I always tell people like when you're investing in short term rental, a lot of people's concern is that there's a lot of volatility in the market. And the truth is, it's not unpredictable; it's highly predictable. And you can look at data to figure out exactly how well a property is going to perform. You just need to know what you're doing when you're running those numbers. And then you always want to have backups and contingencies in place." - James Svetec  
"It's important to number one, just run the numbers conservatively and know what your worst-case scenario is. But then also just have different backups in place so that you're never left with the property that's not going to be cash-flow positive." - James Svetec 
"I think what it really comes down to for a lot of people that are on Airbnb is looking for certain amenities, certain features. And especially right now, people in these urban centers wanted to get out of the city. But sometimes they're actually looking to go to the city to work still and maintain the same standard of living that they were in beforehand." - Riley Oickle

Cash Flow Secrets: Real Estate, Investing & Wealth Management Principles They Failed To Teach by Willie Mandrell: https://www.amazon.com/Cash-Flow-Secrets-Management-Principles/dp/1734960906 
Topics Covered: 
01:38 - What his investment strategy is 
04:24 - Where he finds his property deals 
05:28 - Why he does not get properties from MLS or going directly to sellers 
07:16 - The turnaround for his rehabbed properties 
09:00 - Taking properties as vacant and what he does when there is tenancy involved 
11:16 - What the cash flows look like for his properties 
14:24 - How much is the rental for a three-bedroom house, and how much revenue do you get 
Key Takeaways: 
"I do everything I can to make sure the building is delivered vacant. And if we don't have it vacant, what we do is allot cash for keys, and cash for keys is essentially just going back to the tenant and just buying them out." - Willie Mandrell   
"I want to knock out a lot of the competition. If I was just looking for cosmetic renovations, paint, and carpet as we call it, then my competition is high because most investors can do that. What I go and look for is stuff that you won't even be able to live in, like a war zone." - Willie Mandrell 
"What we're doing instead of chasing the market, trying to buy rent-ready stuff, we go and buy bad windows, bad roofs leaking heating systems or bad electrical needs to be updated." - Willie Mandrell

Topics Covered: 
00:58 - Opening a branch office right in the middle of the pandemic 
02:01 - The pros of having multifamily properties over single-family homes 
04:11 - The journey he took to transition to multifamily 
05:34 - Describing the process of getting into multifamily

11:10 - Don't pressure yourself too much on your first multifamily deal 
14:16 - Underwriting from three perspectives 
13:03 - The best way to approach a realtor when scaling from single-family to multifamily 
16:00 - His way of raising capital and getting into joint venture partnership 
Key Takeaways: 
"The pros for multifamily that I like is number one, its efficiency in terms of using capital. Once you are established, comfortable, and working on a larger scale, you can get more done with less time. And that's part of the name of the game." - James Knull 
"It's a totally different way to add value to the building because, in multifamily, we treat the building as a business. And so, the more viable you make the business, the more valuable that business is." - James Knull 
"A big part of the jump [single family home to multifamily] is, even if it might be physically possible for you to take on a building of that size. It still might not be wise from a risk tolerance perspective and an experience perspective because you know what they say in investing; you don't want to put all of your eggs in one basket. Diversifying is a really nice way to go."- James Knull 
"That whole process [getting into multifamily] I can describe in 30 seconds, but that was about a year and a half of work. So, for people who are thinking about getting into it, that's not an overnight success." - James Knull 
"Don't stress out about swinging for the fences on your first deal, like, do a comfortable deal, be very successful at it, do a great job, ensure your investors are thrilled. Keep your paperwork tight, keep your record keeping solid so that when you go to deal number two, you've got something great that you can show people, and then just every good deal you do is a stepping stone into another great deal." - James Knull 
"Lining partners up, planting the seeds, whatever we want to call it. If this is something you're thinking about getting into, then have the conversations early just to separate people into a couple of piles -- don't bug them, people that are maybes, and those that are definitely interested when you've got the deal. Once you have those three piles when a deal actually shows up, you've got something to work with." - James Knull

And I would focus on that and be the best that I could possibly be. And then you find other team members that are really good at those other things. And I've seen people move much faster in this business and much better." - Whitney Sewell

Key Takeaways: 
“When I go to the alternate lender who does non-recourse, it could point to higher interest. But it's great because it's non-recourse. And then it's on the loan to value. I lock it in for this price. I create value by filling vacancies, raising rents and adding profit centers and lowering my expenses. We don't have management on these, we've automated, modernized them. So, there's a fraction of the actual cost for management.”  - Terry Hale
“I had to get away from competition, I had to get away from the real estate investment trusts and any wall street money dealing with a huge property. So, I found this little cookie-cutter niche, and then I started looking at ownership. If somebody owned that thing for about 20 years, then at that point in time, they're probably more than likely ready to retire. So, I started focusing on those properties.” - Terry Hale
“I reverse engineer my thinking, I started looking instead of buying retail property on a capitalization rate, I started looking at more distressed property that is not bankable.” - Terry Hale

Key Takeaways: 
"With my properties and all my investments, I've always aimed for more passive income; I try to be as hands-off as possible. I landlord a property close to me. But even still, it's a nice property. I try not to be there all that often. And then most of my properties are out of state. I'm pretty hands-off. I have property managers." - Ali Boone 
"Turnkeys are as hands-off as you can get, not completely hands-off, but it's much more passive." - Ali Boone  
"When you learn how to do the due diligence, then you almost don't have to worry about the red flags. But in all fairness, because most of us don't know how to do that good level of due diligence, one of the first things is really just talking to other people and see who they have good experiences with." - Ali Boone 
"I started a turnkey Facebook group for this exact reason, so more people can be talking, and turnkey providers aren't allowed in it. Because I want people to openly share what works, and what doesn't." - Ali Boone 
"One good tip on due diligence, have someone with more experience tell you the list of things to check on." - Ali Boone 
"You can have every how-to guide in the world handed to you, but if your mindset is off, there's no how-to guide in the world that's going to help you." - Ali Boone
