Summary
Frank Rolfe has been an investor in mobile home parks for almost 30 years and has owned and operated hundreds of mobile home parks during that time. He is currently ranked, with his partner Dave Reynolds, as the 5th largest mobile home park owner in the U.S., with over 250 communities spread out over 25 states.
Along the way, Frank began writing about the industry, and his books, coupled with those of his partner Dave Reynolds, have become leaders in this niche of commercial real estate investing.
In this episode, Frank talks about the investment potential in mobile home investment and why you should invest in mobile home parks.
Topics Covered:
01:29 – Frank’s transition  from the billboard business to mobile home park investing, why he chose the mobile home park as his real estate investing choice, the potential for affordable housing
04:01 – Expensive housing versus mobile home parks, what people do not know about the mobile home park industry
04:41 – Frank’s unfair advantage in real estate, how his billboard advertising background and being a ‘workaholic’ helped him succeed
06:25 – What are the typical challenges he experienced in mobile home park investing
07:39 – The problems he solves for his students, how he teaches them to get to mobile home park investing
08:15 – Why mobile home park is a great investment in terms of financing and returns
09:25 – What’s an average mobile home park deal looks like in terms of number of units, pads, and finance, the price point for buying one mobile park property 
12:52 – Why Canadians should love mobile home park investing: Higher cap rates.
14:52 –  Frank Rolfe's best tip: ‘Think of a man of action, act like a man of thought.’
Key Takeaways:
“I love the fact that affordable housing is a big thing right now in the US. So if we were all getting super prosperous, you would need mobile home parks. But I’m a believer that we’re going down the drain. So the demand for affordable housing grows every day.” – Frank Rolfe
“Our unfair advantage probably is we’ve been doing this for so long. There are so many people, every park that we buy, we can put it in a box based on past parts, we can just almost guess, from before we buy it exactly how it will turn out. So that’s probably our entry badges.” – Frank Rolfe

Summary

In this episode, Gary talks about being a realtor as well as a real estate investor. You will learn how to add more value to clients that will help strengthen your branding and positioning.
Topics Covered:
01:06 – How he became a realtor and eventually a real estate investor at the same time and what strategy he uses
04:17 – What types of investors does he come in contact with
05:25 – What reason do investors have for choosing Vancouver
07:12 – How to find a good realtor
09:23 – What steps should be done to find a good realtor
10:51 - What lessons did he learn from his mentor, Dan Lok, that helped him catapult things up
13:02 – Talking about his book entitled “The Book On Vancouver Real Estate: How To Buy It, Sell It, And PROFIT From It! by Gary Wong  
15:54 – How he managed to really do well with YouTube
Key Takeaways:
“I think when it comes to finding a good realtor, there are different types. One, like if you’re looking specifically for buying, then you want a realtor who knows how to do analysis quite well. They know their numbers, they know their economic fundamentals, they know which areas are great and which are not, and then they must have a high level of customer service.” – Gary Wong
One step in looking for a good realtor: “I would ask for referrals, but also I would interview them and then I would do my own due diligence. I find that realtors who are quite well-branded online, it shows me that they take pride in what they do and that they’re not just helping their friends buy or sell real estate. They actually are doing this long-term. They give off a good first impression if they have good marketing, though it doesn’t guarantee that they’re going to be a great realtor for you.” – Gary Wong
“Well, I use my book as my business card in real estate. A lot of people just hand out their business cards and you and I know that business cards often get thrown away. So, Dan was telling me, Gary, when you use your book, it gives you the authority status. People aren’t going to throw away your book, so use your book as an authority, like a business card.” – Gary Wong

Real Estate Success in 5 Minutes a Day: Secrets of a Top Agent Revealed (5 Minute Success) by Karen Briscoe
Summary
Karen Briscoe is Principal of the Huckaby Briscoe Conroy Group (HBC) and author of “Real Estate Success in 5 Minutes a Day”. Over the years, the group has sold over 1,000 homes valued at over $1 billion. She began her real estate career in developing residential lots with the Trammel Crow Company in Dallas, Texas.
In this episode, Karen talks about success in just five minutes. Let your limiting belief that you don’t have time to do anything be thrown away and learn how getting started is the first and only step towards success. Karen has tips and tricks that you can leverage upon.
Topics Covered:
01:14 – How she became a realtor
02:40 – Why limiting and restricting your time makes you more efficient and effective
04:27 – Getting into the five-minute success
06:15 – What does a five-minute success look like
10:26 – The whole idea of getting started
12:30 – How to find a great realtor who can help in your investment property
15:54 – Thoughts on just wasting time and not pulling the trigger
Key Takeaways:
“So one way to jumpstart or get people into productivity is to limiting and restricting the amount of time you do something. So then the idea, I don’t have enough time to go away. So that’s where the idea of five minutes' success.” – Karen Briscoe
“So, anything that’s repeatable then can be systematized. You can create leverage off of it. So what I found is, there are really three core principles. And then one overarching, the first one is committed to getting leads. So every business or enterprise, entrepreneur sales all starts with a lead even investing. So it all starts with a lead.” – Karen Briscoe
“Reinventing wheels is not really a great strategy if you’re doing it your first time. You can get creative later. In the beginning, It’s usually best to find a proven strategy and follow it. So, start there and then commit to a certain number that you’re going to do daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, whatever it is that you will commit to.” – Karen Briscoe
“Tracking is one of the most proven ways of success. And by tracking your business, you develop lead generation, your investment leads that you’re tracking, you will then start to see patterns of success, where your best leads come from, where your best opportunities come from, what you can convert the easiest.” – Karen Briscoe
On finding a good realtor: “So, to look for somebody who actually invests in themselves, it’s just like anything, it’s like, would you really go to a workout with a trainer who was fat? I mean, it really is counterintuitive. So if they’re not invested in themselves, they don’t believe in it and they haven’t actually gone through what is involved.” – Karen Briscoe

Learn How to Raise Capital and Attract Joint Venture Partners Grow a Multi-Million Dollar Real Estate Portfolio…Without Using Your Own Money!
Summary
Sarah Eder is the owner and CEO of Sarah Eder Investments; a firm focused on flips, multi-family properties, and lately larger-scale developments and commercial conversions. Relatively new to the real estate game, Sarah left her role as an international professional athlete only three years ago to dive into real estate and has managed to raise well over 7-figures of capital in that short time. She specializes in joint venture partnerships and has funded an entire portfolio using none of her own money; and is now a full-time investor, coach, and mentor.
This episode illustrates how the new generation of millennials changes and impacts old ways, even in real estate investing. Let Sarah tell us how she used social media to attract investors and raise capital. Definitely, it’s not all about posting a picture of yourself and your property.  
Topics Covered:
00:31 – Sarah shares her sport as a professional athlete before venturing into real estate investing 
01:39 – What made her decide to go into real estate investing
03:16 – Narrating how she started property management for student rentals
05:41 – Sarah tells how she used social media to attract investors and raise capital without getting into trouble with the trade commissions
08:17 – The best social media platform to start with
09:55 – Other social media platform that Sarah suggests to use
10:57 – How often to post contents on Facebook
11:34 – How to turn a stranger to be a partner investor
15:14 – Sarah offers coaching and training to intermediate-level investors
15:57 – Ways to connect and contact Sarah
16:47 – Biggest mistakes that Sarah sees to people trying to raise capital using social media
Key Takeaways:
“Frequency on social media matters a lot. Sometimes it’s not always what you’re saying, but even to get Facebook’s algorithms working properly so that enough people can see your content. They want to see that you’re posting, I say at least five days a week. So even if you can get into like a Monday to Friday posting schedule, you’ll start to boost and get Facebook working for you.” – Sarah Eder
“I would say that the biggest mistake I see people doing is not getting clear on what they’re posting. Some people think that they can show up every day and post a picture of themselves or property. And that’s going to be enough for people to reach out to them and be interested. But you have to have a bit of a purpose to what you’re posting. You have to think through the eyes of the investor.  What would they want to see from me in order for them to say, this is the person I want to work with?” – Sarah Eder
“I generally suggest spending time, in the beginning, developing a really powerful like brand and self-identity, so you know where you’re going with your social media strategy.” – Sarah Eder

Summary
Pierre-Paul Turgeon is one of Canada’s leading multifamily investing authorities and a former CMHC multifamily underwriter. He is also a successful multifamily investor with a portfolio of 160 doors worth over $22M while at the same time being a national coach, speaker, and trainer in this subject.
In this episode, Pierre-Paul shares value-packed info about investing in multi-family properties, how to go about earning more and lowering operational expenses, picking the right size properties that will give you maximum income, and why multi-family investing provides you with a quick wealth multiplier effect.
Topics Covered:
01:07 How he got involved in real estate
04:51 What are the advantages of multi-family properties over other strategies
10:17 Which property size would give you the most income
11:56 Is it possible to scale up without going through the baby steps
14:57 How does he see people just starting out raise capital of million amount without getting into debt
Key Takeaways:
“So the bigger, the better. This being said, beggars can’t be choosers. There’s always an opportunity cost. Even a small 10 sweeter will make you money. Just sit on it long enough and you’re in a reasonable market. You’ll pay your principal down and the property will appreciate, then you’ll get a bit of cash flow and you’ll always make money. But the more units within the building, the more money you make. There’s no doubt about it.” – Pierre-Paul Turgeon
“Apartment buildings are a lot less labor-intensive because when you crunch the numbers, you got two operating expense items, one for a professional property manager and one for the onsite manager. So they’re the parties that handled the hassle of being a landlord. All right, so more, more time to myself.” – Pierre-Paul Turgeon
“To me, real estate investing is like a recipe and you can have a fairly predictable outcome as long as you really do your homework and do your assessment and evaluation of the asset of the market and all that.” – Pierre-Paul Turgeon

Topics Covered:
01:06 – Book alert:  Canadian Real Estate Investor Financing – 7 Secrets to Getting All the Money You Want by Dalia Barsoum
01:34 – How she got into being a real estate investor and eventually a mortgage broker
02:48 – About being a buy and hold investor
03:50 – Mistakes people commonly commit when investing in Real Estate
04:53 – The Pitfall of not planning ahead especially when it comes to financing

12:35 –  How to attract potential investors and raise capital for joint ventures
14:34 – Talking about pre-qualification requirement for clients and potential investors
17:28 – Discussing the confidential matters in financing
19:27 – Where their business is based
Key Takeaways:
“What I find helps everyone, not just clients, is surrounding yourself with people who have been in the same position, who have the experience to actually bring value to the table. When I started investing, it’s helped me tremendously to have the right coach by my side, the right realtor by my side who knew the local market, who knew what’s gonna rent for, what the vacancy rates are, what is a good tenant, what’s a bad tenant.” – Dalia Barsoum
“Definitely everyone is going to eventually run out of their own capital to invest and raising capital becomes a very important topic. So, from a financing standpoint, what I typically advise clients off, if you have a joint venture partner that is coming to the table to invest, it’s really important, first of all, to know what they’re capable of from a financing standpoint before you go shop for a deal. So they go through the same process that we take clients through in terms of planning the financing roadmap for those JV partners.” – Dalia Barsoum
“Sometimes clients rush into forming a corporation, but everybody on the corporation and you get a group of three or a group of four investing together, which really, really complicates financing from a residential standpoint. The commercial is not a problem, but residential becomes complicated. Before clients rush into, you know, these types of strategies again, I would suggest you talk to a mortgage advisor and say, okay, who are the best people to really go on this deal from a financing standpoint? How can we make our deals going forward, simple, and most attractive to the lenders? So putting everybody on a deal because they’re a JV partner, doesn’t really make sense all of the time. Sometimes it complicates things significantly.” – Dalia Barsoum

In this episode, Michael walks us through the exciting income-generating world of multi-family real estate. Be awed at his expertise, beginning from when you are a start-up up to the time you want to scale up and diversify your portfolio.
Topics Covered:
01:30 – How he got into Real Estate

13:31 – What one  strategy did he use in helping his clients
14:15 – Free E-book: How To Raise Money to Buy Your First Apartment Building.
Key Takeaways:
“So the biggest mistake people make is that they dismiss multi-family as an advanced strategy that they will get to after a decade of single-family house investing. After having saved up a bunch of money, they will then graduate to multi-family and it’s just not true.” – Michael Blank
“The first thing is you do have to educate yourself, to some degree. And I think at one point you have to start investing in yourself. But there’s a lot of free resources out there as well where you can actually educate yourself for either free or very little money. But you have to educate yourself a little bit because you have to appear knowledgeable and confident when you’re talking to other people.” – Michael Blank
“And my other advice is not to go out and raise money. My advice is to simply share your enthusiasm with people in an intentional way.  – Michael Blank
“..clarity allows them to be very, very clear on what action to take because someone’s very clear on something. It’s very easy for someone to take action versus someone who is not clear on what they want. It’s a wishy-washy thing and they might take some action here and my take some action here and nullifies what they did over here or complete inaction. So clarity is really important.” – Michael Blank

“A lot of people have a lot of interesting little stories in their lives, but they take it for granted. So first, you have to sit down and look at the simple things that have happened in your life and draw stories from it. When you can draw a story from those simple things, then you realize that other people have little simple things they take for granted and you can help them package what they take for granted and, and move it towards the future.” – Matthew Frederick 
“Yeah, so a lot of people don’t really know who they are, they know who they want to be. And it’s a connection of finding out who are you really and who you want to be and how do you bridge the gap and how do you use other real estate or a business or wellness. And by the way, you need all three.” – Matthew Frederick

Key Takeaways:
“One of the biggest mistakes that we always see is people just not accounting for all of the expenses. And so you know, trying to find cashflow in any hot market is difficult. But when you’re not accounting for all of the expenses, you know, that cashflow property can turn sideways real quick.” – Steve Arneson
“One of like, the mantras that we had in our business from day one has, we will pass on nine good deals to find one great deal because we know when that correction does come, that great deal is still a good deal. Whereas a good deal you might not be making any money in a downward turn.” – Steve Arneson
“The very first thing that my family told me when I started getting into real estate investing as a career was he can’t find cashflow in Victoria, and I don’t know if you’re the same way as me, but I think you are. When somebody tells me I can’t do something, I work day in and day out to make sure I prove them wrong. And I wrote down a couple of things as we were talking before this on how people can execute that and the number one thing that everybody can do is just track all the offers that they’re making and then follow up with those offers a month, three months, six months down the road. Some of the best deals that we have in our portfolio right now came from falling up six months down the road after our first offer.” – Steve Arneson

Key Takeaways:
“I would have pushed a little bit more to get quicker there. And for those people who are listening, find people that are doing successfully where you want to do. And so, could I have made this jump on my own, not surrounding myself with like-minded people? Sure. But, would the learning curve have been a lot greater and would have taken me a lot longer? Sure. Yes, it would. But to be able to find people that are doing what you want to do successfully and seeing how you can help them but also having them in your corner where you can ask them these questions that can help you along the way.” – Jason Yarusi
“I’m probably more stubborn than most people and that comes from, you know, being surrounded by a bunch of Italians that I’ll hear No 6,000 times. But no, there’s a yes somewhere that goes at everything. They all know that. They’ll keep saying, well, they said no. I said, well, just keep asking cause sooner or later that No becomes a Yes. Just got to find them the right way to ask it or the right person to ask it to.” – Jason Yarusi
“Give yourself three action items and go out there and do it. Find your focus, make five calls, and go out there and make an offer. And if you do this, you know, if you make an offer, you can always say No. You can always not go on that point. I promise you no one’s going to take your dog or something. If you go out there and make an offer, there’s something magical that’s going to happen. People get fearful of the end of this. We go out there and take action. You’ll find it. It will make it so much easier the next time you take action. But that first time it can be really tough.” – Jason Yarusi

Key Takeaways:
“I took an entrepreneurship course, and it was that education would propel me ahead. So absolutely, find somebody that knows what they’re doing.  Find some group that you can be aligned with and then find some people locally doing like you’re doing if you can. Absolutely key. Because if you don’t, you don’t know what you don’t know. You got to find people that you can work with, and then take action.” – Trevis McConaghy
“Most people, they sit in the sidelines, and they were like, “When’s the best time to buy?”  Well, it was yesterday. So, jump in and find somebody. Take that leap of faith and find somebody to help you if you don’t know what you’re doing.” – Trevis McConaghy“If you want to get in, take action.  Align yourself with the right people, and you can make amazing things happen.” – Trevis McConaghy

Key Takeaways:
You need to have skin in the game.  Because if you don’t have skin in the game, I can tell you all the advice in the world. I can give you all the tips. I can let you know what cap rates are. I can show you a good deal, but if you don’t have money invested in, I have masterminds where people don’t show up cause they’re for free. But when I started charging money for masterminds, people will take the advice, and they’ll take action, the commitment. I don’t know why, but when you have skin in the game, that’s the same thing with investing. You start investing in your hard-earned money or somebody else’s money, and you’re going to take action. And it’s the same thing with education. When you have something that’s you know, earned and you put it in there, you’re going to take action on that.” – Gino Barbaro
“My unfair advantage is having great partners and then having a vision and then being hungry, and they’re always thinking about ways to grow the business based on the right deals. And I think the other unfair advantages, and I work hard. I won’t take no for an answer.” – Gino Barbaro
“Start joining communities. Start going to meet up, start listening to other people speaking by educating yourself, and start reading books. Get that and let me tell you, it’s going to take you 12 to 18 months to find your first deal. After you’ve done all that because it took us 18 months ago with our first deal.  But after you’ve done your first deal, I will guarantee you that another deal is within three to six months because momentum, inspiration, motivation takes place.” – Gino Barbaro
