Key Takeaways:

“From the turnkey, virtual triangle perspective, I’m looking as an investor to how can I push as much risk to somebody before I need to commit my money.” – Axel Meierhoefer

“Why I call it virtual triangle is because it creates dependencies that make it good for us as investors to work with them.” – Axel Meierhoefer

“What we do not to run out of money to keep investing for ourselves is to help other people learn what we learned, basically, to benefit from the fact that naturally to get to where we are, I made a whole bunch of mistakes and lost some money.” – Axel Meierhoefer

“How do you see the next five years going? I think the low-interest-rate environment will continue to be around, and I think we will ultimately start getting some inflation. And so, for me, that is the best environment to have as much leverage as I can get.” – Axel Meierhoefer

“We are now at a point where I can say, if I didn’t do anything else anymore, the passive income from the properties would be sufficient. And that’s where I wanted to get my clients to.” – Axel Meierhoefer

“You can go back in history, people who own real estate was in, whatever happens, they’re always the ones who remain on their feet. They have the assets; they can turn the assets into money without having to sell them. It’s pretty amazing what real estate allows you to do.” – Axel Meierhoefer
