    Ep. 241 - How Eric Made $35K More By Ditching His Funding Partner

    Are you missing out on deals because you think high interest rates killed your cash flow? I hope not! In this episode, I break down fatal financing mistakes #3 and #4 — missing deals based on interest rates, and desperately needing lenders — plus the fix for both. I'll show you the exact numbers on a $105,000 loan that prove private money crushes traditional financing (we're talking a $478/month difference), and I'll share how Eric, a flipper in Dayton, made an extra $35,000 on a single deal just by raising private money instead of taking on a funding partner. If you've been letting interest rates talk you out of deals, this one's for you. Visit our website at www.TrueWealthInvestors.com for more real estate wisdom and resources.

    Ep. 240 - How Steve Turned an Old Teacher's IRA Into $225K and 8 Rentals

    Do you think you don't know anyone with money to lend? Steve thought that too — until he found out his friend's old teacher IRA was sitting untouched at $250,000. In this clip from our 3-Day One Rental to Freedom Workshop, Steve Lane shares how he and his business partner turned that conversation into a $225,000 private money loan at 7% interest-only — and built $100,000 in equity on a single deal. From 8 rentals to 10+ wholesale deals to two flips, Steve breaks down exactly how creative financing and staying focused on ONE thing at a time took his business from stuck to unstoppable. If you've ever felt like the money just isn't out there for you, listen close. It is. You just have to know where to look.

    Ep. 239 - How Jim & Scott Built $500K in Equity Buying Rentals With Other People's Money

    Half a million dollars in equity. In under three years. That's what my client Jim — alongside his business partner Scott — has built by buying rental after rental without using a dime of his own money. How long would it take YOU to save half a million dollars from a paycheck? In this recording from our recent 3-day live workshop, Jim and Scott break down exactly how they've grown to nine rental properties: raising money from six different private lenders, structuring promissory notes so their capital keeps moving, switching from the MLS to direct mail marketing, and using DSCR refinances to pull cash back out and buy again. If the idea of asking people you know to lend you money still feels intimidating, this one will change how you think about it. Enjoy!
