Whether you are just starting
out or are transitioning from fixing and flipping, there is a good
chance that you struggle with the idea of raising private money.
Today, I hope to move your thinking to get you to a point where you
know that you can do this. I started out with nothing and was able
to do it, and you can to.
I’m going to show you how I
transitioned from single family deals to apartment deals. A lot of
it is about education and explaining to people what you are doing
and what they are getting. I’ve been doing multifamily for awhile,
and I feel it is time to give back and tell my story.
Topics on Today’s
Episode:
- The
importance of being strategic and saying no to yourself and your
wants in the beginning.
- Living the life you have because you lived the
life no one else would. We actually moved in with my sister in law
when I first started with real estate.
- When
raising money, put yourself in leadership positions when you are
teaching what you know.
- It
helps to be in a place of authority. Raising private money is
always done one on one.
- Bring
your credibility kit for multifamily and your private money program
for single families.
- Ask
questions about dreams, goals, etc. Share what you do. Start with
the apartment story and how they provide a source of quarterly
income.
- People want income, but don’t want to spend
down their principle.
- We
have learned how to mitigate risk and that is what we
do.
- Millenials don’t want to buy houses. They like
the flexibility of renting. Baby boomers are
downsizing.
- We
are good at buying old properties that suffer from deferred
maintenance and bad management. We know how to fix fixable
problems.
- We
specialize in finding old properties fixing these problems and
making profit. We buy based on cash flow.
- Most
of these investments are five year commitments. Most people are
looking for consistency.
- We
pay based on cash flow. Every quarter our investors get a preferred
rate of return.
- Single family is based on each and every deal.
It’s a lot of work. Most people just want to set it and forget or
at least not be hassled by it.
- Does
that sound like you? This is the buy in.
- But,
I don’t know you, and you don’t know me. Do a small fix and flip
deal for 90 days. This is the best way to start the relationship
and go from there.
- This
method can easily unlock current private money.
- The
market is super hot, it’s time to transition to cash flow through
apartments.
- People will follow you when they know, like,
and trust you.
