    Why Putting All Your Eggs in One Real Estate Basket is a Risky Bet | Ep 45

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode, we explore the concept of diversification and discuss the importance of not putting all your eggs in one basket, both in real estate and other investment avenues. We touch on different types of real estate investments, the risks and benefits of diversification, and how investors can strategically balance their portfolios across various asset types and strategies. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:38 The Importance of Diversification 06:20 Risks of Not Diversifying 11:41 Exploring Real Estate Investment Strategies 13:23 Challenges in Real Estate Diversification 18:22 Comparing Real Estate to Other Investments 20:26 The Role of Sponsors and Financial Planners 24:39 Closing Remarks and Call to Action //Key Lessons Diversification isn’t just optional—it’s essential: Don’t rely on one type of investment. Spread your investments across different property types, locations, Diversify strategies, not just assets: It’s not just about owning different types of real estate—using different strategies like flips, buy-and-hold, or short-term rentals can help you adapt to market changes. Be aware of economic cycles: Real estate is affected by market cycles, so even if your properties are diverse, keep an eye on how the overall economy could impact your investments, especially if they’re all in one geographic area. Know your sponsor and their approach: If you’re a passive investor, make sure you trust your sponsor’s expertise and ask how they diversify. It’s crucial to ensure they aren’t putting all their eggs in one basket. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

    How I'm Teaching My Kids to Master Real Estate from Day One | Ep 44

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) Join us as we share our journey of teaching financial independence to our kids with hopes of raising money-savvy kids with a balanced perspective on wealth and stewardship. We discuss our approach to parenting, including free-range parenting, playing educational games like 'Cashflow for Kids', giving our kids allowances they manage, end-of-day reflection questions, and family business ventures. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:04 Teaching Kids Real Estate from Day One 02:21 Free Range Parenting and Independence 04:05 Financial Education Through Games 06:46 Weekly Cashflow Payday: Teaching Money Management 12:29 Real World Practice: Ride Alongs and Property Tours 14:07 Celebrating Failures and Learning 16:08 Starting a Family Business 22:35 Teaching Money Management and Stewardship 24:34 Conclusion and Invitation // Key Lessons Let them fail early and often: Embrace free-range parenting—giving your kids room to explore and make mistakes helps build their decision-making and risk-taking skills. Teach the balance of saving and spending: Payday is about more than just allowance. Show kids the power of delayed gratification by offering “interest” on savings. Real-world ride-alongs beat textbooks: Involve kids in your work. Whether it’s real estate or business, seeing firsthand what you do builds their understanding of practical skills. A daily reflection habit breeds independent thinkers: Ask your kids what they failed at and what they learned each day. Celebrate their failures as learning moments. Teach them to manage, not just earn: Instill financial stewardship by making kids responsible for spending decisions. Watch them weigh the value of every dollar. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

    Trump vs. Harris: Which Economic Strategy Benefits Real Estate Investors? | Ep 43

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode of the Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast, we dive into the impact of political policies on real estate investing. We explore the economic plans of Trump and Harris, discussing the nuances and potential pros and cons of their proposals and provide a thorough analysis on how these policies could reshape the real estate landscape. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:07 Diving into Politics: Trump vs. Harris 03:27 Harris's Housing Policies: An Overview 05:34 Affordable Housing: Challenges and Innovations 09:07 Speeding Up Housing Permits and Predatory Investing Act 12:26 Algorithmic Rental Cartels and Down Payment Support 20:25 Addressing the Housing Supply Issue 24:33 Trump's Housing Policies 25:09 Impact of Regulations on Construction Costs 29:13 Promoting Home Ownership and Zoning Policies 32:44 Tariffs and Energy Costs 37:13 Conclusion and Final Thoughts // 5 Key Lessons Understand the gap between perception and reality: Just like how appearances can be deceiving, it’s important to separate what real estate markets seem like from what’s really going on. Focus on policies, not personalities: When investing, pay close attention to real estate policies rather than the politician behind them—what they enact impacts the market most. Increasing supply is key to affordability: Restricting big investors might sound helpful, but without enough housing supply, prices will remain high. More homes are the real solution. Speed up the permit process for real results: Policies to streamline building permits can directly affect the timeline for new housing, helping to meet demand faster. Balancing affordability and market growth is essential: Policies aimed at affordable housing should also consider their impact on current homeowners and the overall housing market. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

    Don't Panic: The Hitchhiker's Guide to Passive Real Estate Investing | Ep 42

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode of the Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast, we dive into passive real estate investing lessons, through the lens of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.' We discuss key principles like 'Don't Panic,' the importance of preparedness (having your 'towel'), asking the right questions, avoiding market fads, and understanding your 'why' in real estate investments. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:38 Episode 42: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 04:28 Lesson 1: Don't Panic 06:35 Lesson 2: Know Where Your Towel Is 09:31 Lesson 3: The Value of Asking the Right Questions 12:12 Lesson 4: Avoid Market Fads 15:12 Lesson 5: Know Your Why 17:28 Conclusion and Final Thoughts //Key Lessons Don’t panic, even in chaos: When investing in real estate (or life), it's essential to stay calm. The market may fluctuate, but focusing on long-term trends, like population growth and housing demand, will keep you grounded. Carry your towel (aka be prepared): Just like in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, being prepared with key insights—like market data and stress tests—will save you from unexpected surprises. It’s all about knowing your numbers and having a solid plan. Ask better questions for better answers: It's not just about getting answers—make sure you’re asking the right questions about your investments. Dig deeper into market trends, sponsor qualifications, and deal specifics. Avoid following the crowd: Just because short-term rentals are trendy doesn’t mean they’re right for you. Look at long-term fundamentals instead of being swayed by fads. Sometimes the boring path is the most profitable. Know your ‘why’ in real estate: Understanding your reason for investing—whether it's passive income or long-term wealth building—will guide your decisions and help you align with the right partners and strategies. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together. I'm James Furlo. I live in Oregon, where I help people invest in real estate passively. Over the last 14 years, I've purchased over $4 million in real estate, and I’m excited to give you the opportunity to partner with us and experience the joy of building wealth while improving housing.

    5 Lessons Smart Passive Investors Need to Know From Ben Carlson | Ep 41

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode, we dive into Ben Carlson's blog post, '20 Lessons from 20 Years of Managing Money.' Focusing on five lessons relevant to passive investors, we explore topics such as risk perception, the psychology of investing, market trends, and the importance of long-term optimism. https://awealthofcommonsense.com/2024/03/20-lessons-from-20-years-of-managing-money/ // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 02:15 20 Lessons from 20 Years of Managing Money 06:43 Winning the Lottery: A Blessing or a Curse? 12:21 The Biggest Risks in Real Estate Investing 14:03 Understanding Investment Fundamentals 15:20 The Importance of Fundamentals in Investing 18:10 Creating a Solid Investment Plan 26:24 Conclusion and Final Thoughts //Key Lessons Trust the numbers, not your emotional baggage: If you lost big in 2008 or got scammed, sure, be cautious—but don’t let that scar stop you from making solid investments today. Boring can be beautiful—especially in real estate: You don’t need to hit a home run on every deal. Consistent, predictable returns of 8-12%? That’s the real jackpot. Go ahead, be an optimist!: Real estate is a game where the optimists win. Even when interest rates rise, see the upside—there’s always a smart way to play the market. Your portfolio is not a Pinterest board of random deals: A bunch of random good deals does not equal a good portfolio. Plan your investments strategically and make sure each one aligns with your long-term goals. Even the black belt of real estate sticks to basics: Just like jiu-jitsu, mastering the basics of real estate—timing, cash flow, risk management—is what keeps you winning. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

    Why Home Insurance Costs Are Exploding (And How It Impacts Your Investments) | Ep 40

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) This episode we dive into the complexities of home insurance in the face of rising costs and market instability. We talk about how natural disasters, climate change, and dense housing markets are affecting insurance availability and premiums. Discover actionable advice for navigating these challenges, including exploring secondary markets, understanding government policies, and considering self-insurance strategies. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:38 Rising Costs and Unavailability of Home Insurance 04:54 Government Policies and Insurance Market 10:58 Self-Insurance and Risk Pooling 15:16 Final Thoughts and Opportunities in Insurance //Key Lessons Avoid the high insurance trap: If you’re looking to invest in real estate, consider secondary markets where insurance isn't a financial nightmare. Big cities might sound glamorous, but rural towns can be a safer bet for your wallet! Question everything when it comes to insurance: Don't just assume your investment comes with the standard insurance package. Ask about what happens if a property turns to ashes or how risks are mitigated. The more questions you ask, the less likely you are to be caught off guard! Explore the idea of going all-cash: If you’ve got the means, buying property outright can save you from the insurance headache. No mortgage means no forced insurance—just be ready to handle any potential disasters out of pocket. Consider the co-op insurance model: For the big players out there, consider self-insuring or forming a risk pool with other investors. It’s like starting your own insurance club, but way cooler. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together. I'm James Furlo.

    4 Real Estate Deals I’m Analyzing—What You Can Learn from My Approach | Ep 39

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode, we discuss the significance of consulting experts and share insights into four intriguing properties we are evaluating. From a haunted house teardown project to challenging foreclosure deals and a promising mobile home investment, learn about the strategic thinking, financial considerations, and decision-making processes involved in these potential investments. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:43 Exploring Four Potential Real Estate Deals 02:31 Deal 1: The Haunted House 09:43 Deal 2: The Foreclosure in Salem 15:43 Discussing Mortgage Rates and Time Management 16:32 Analyzing the Fourplex Property 18:02 Exploring the Brownsville House 26:52 Mobile Home Investment Opportunity 29:07 Conclusion and Final Thoughts //Key Lessons Know when to pivot: James’ haunted house deal teaches us that sometimes, shifting strategies, like paring down from 40 units to eight, can make an otherwise impossible deal work in the current market. Real estate is a relationship game: Whether it’s getting a free breakfast or negotiating with park owners, building relationships can be just as important as closing deals. Don’t get attached to potential: Like the builder couple with grand visions, it’s easy to fall in love with a project’s potential, but if the numbers don’t add up, it’s time to walk away. Keep the long-term in mind: The mobile home deal for a dollar shows that even small, seemingly insignificant deals can become profitable when you consider the broader strategy and relationships, like the park owners who just want their lot rent. Don’t ignore red flags: The development project with all the red flags, like unapproved tree clearing, reminds us that ignoring warning signs can lead to bigger problems down the line. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.

    The Fixer-Upper We Didn't Fix: A Step Towards Financial Freedom | Ep 38

    (Watch the YouTube video of this episode here) In this episode of the Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast, we share a detailed account of our journey with a fixer-upper property on 1st Avenue. We discuss the initial purchase process, unexpected challenges, and the eventual profitable sale. We highlight the importance of wise investing, even in less-than-ideal properties and neighborhoods. // Key Moments 00:00 Introduction to Furlo Capital Real Estate Podcast 01:55 First Avenue Property Purchase Story 04:07 Initial Impressions and Purchase Details 06:07 Living in the Fixer-Upper 10:04 Challenges and Solutions 11:34 Turning the House into a Rental 13:04 Investment Performance Breakdown 15:06 Selling the House 16:55 Current Projects and Reflections 21:34 Final Thoughts and Outro // Key Lessons Check the listing twice before swiping past: The most unassuming properties can hide significant potential, like the moss-covered, pink-eyesore that became a cash cow. The ‘fixer-upper’ strategy doesn’t always mean fixing everything: Sometimes, the goal is simply to live cheaply—don’t confuse a property’s aesthetics with its financial utility. Not every investment needs to be flashy to be profitable: A humble two-bedroom with shag carpet and a funky garage can yield massive returns if you play the market right. Don’t underestimate the impact of neighborhood transformation: Investing in a rough neighborhood can spur revitalization and bring long-term community improvements. // Let's build your wealth and improve housing, together.
