    Stabilize, Syndicate, Succeed: Garrett Terrell’s Secrets to Scaling MHPs

    Episode 63 - Garrett Terrell "I kind of hit a home run on my first deal. And so I thought I knew everything. And I'm like, 'Nah, I just want to keep this lean and mean.' Like, I want to pay this park off and just have one park to deal with and all that stuff. And I don't know if anything necessarily just changed, but I think the more deals that we were looking at, and underwriting, and getting direct to seller on, these were like no brainer opportunities. And I didn't have multiple six figures of my own cash to just dump into these deals and manage myself. These are no brainer deals. And so I'm like, 'Man, I got to find the money for this.'" Join me as I interview returning guest Garrett Terrell, the CEO and founder of Rocket Capital Fund.  As a real estate agent, Garrett began his journey focused on flipping houses. During our last interview, Garrett was in the process of transitioning out of residential into strictly multi-family real estate. Garrett shares his accomplishments and projects over the last year.

    Navigating Uncertainty: Jeff Ervick’s Strategies for Investing in an Unstable Economy

    Because you know that the previous owner was just slamming people in there, probably just to get occupancy up. So we see that a lot, right? And it's sad because, you know, a lot of landlords would do that. And I always like to kind of make sure that when we buy something, or even if I go rent a car or something like that, like I'm always gonna return it or I'm always going to sell it in a better status than it was before, right? And so I think if you just kind of go with that mentality that, no matter what happens, we're going to be honest, we're gonna be upfront, gonna make sure that we're leaving this planet or leaving this asset in a better position for the next person.Episode 62 – Jeff Ervick Join me as I interview our first returning guest, Jeff Ervick.

    Wealth Through Words: Kent Sariano on the Power of Copywriting in Real Estate

    Episode 60 – Kent Sariano “This is one thing I've kind of liked about working with all these different clients is like, they're so entrepreneurial, right? And the ones who succeed always have the same mindset. They're very strategic about how they make their investments. Like they don't just fall in love with a deal and go into it. They have a plan. They have an investment thesis. And they know how to execute on it. So, they know what they invest in, and they know why they invest in everything. And they also have amazing follow through. Everybody that I've talked to who is successful, when they start an idea, they finish it. A lot of people can't do that. But every single person that I've worked with who is like a successful real estate investor, who is financially independent, they all have that follow through.”  Join me as I interview Kent Sariano, the founder of Market.Raise.Repeat. Kent shares his journey from screenwriting in Hollywood to becoming a successful copywriter for fund managers, developers, and syndicators. In addition to copywriting for clients, he currently coaches entrepreneurs and writes a weekly newsletter focused on marketing for capital raisers.

Kent and I discuss: His journey from screenwriting to copywritingThe purpose of copywriting and impact on marketingHow persuasive writing can help raise capitalSpeaking to the pain points of your target investorCopywriting as a resource for business growthLife insurance as a financial toolThe importance of time management and focus for entrepreneursOptimizing existing assets versus constantly seeking new opportunitiesBuilding relationships through podcasting LinkedIn: @kentsariano Email: kent@marketraiserepeat.com https://marketraiserepeat.com/ Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell No B.S.

    From Cockpit to Cash Flow: Nick Kosko’s Flight Plan for Financial Independence

    Episode 59 - Nick Kosko “But man, I tell you what, my curiosity about money was planted into fertile soil. And I went to work trying to learn about the real truth about money. You know, what my parents had taught me was not wrong, right? It just wasn't what was gonna work out for me. Go get a good job, work for somebody else for 30 - 40 years. And then when you “retire,” which that word's not in the Bible, I've come to learn, you're going to be removed from service and then some money babysitter is going to tell you how much money you get to take. And then we're going to hope that you don't run out of money by the time you die. Hope's not a strategy.”Join me this week as I interview Nick Kosko, a Wealth Strategist with CreateTailwind and co-host of the Breakaway Wealth podcast. Nick had his dream career delivering packages as an airplane pilot by the time he was 30. After an unexpected layoff, Nick became motivated to expand his financial education and find viable solutions to the money problems he was facing. After interviewing several traditional financial advisors, Nick rejected the well-known path and stumbled upon the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC). On this journey, he connected with Jim Oliver, the founder of CreateTailwind. Today, Nick is passionate about coaching, educating, and inspiring others to take back control of their money by learning the truth about banking.   Nick and I discuss:   ·         His journey from airplane pilot to infinite banking ·         How to understand IBC (Infinite Banking Concept) ·         The problems with traditional financing ·         The impact of financial mentors on your journey ·         The value of life insurance in IBC ·         The cost of insurance and cash value ·         The financial implications of ownership vs. renting ·         The bridge to wealth through initial capital investments ·         The power of cash flow in real estate ·         Control and liquidity as the keys to financial freedom ·         Providing value as the heart of wealth building   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickkosko/ Email: NickKosko@CreateTailwind.com https://createtailwind.com/ Becoming Your Own Banker by R.

    From Investor to Business Owner Mindset: Mario Dattilo’s Blueprint for Real Estate Success

    Episode 58 – Mario Dattilo   “When you recruit people, you have to recruit people that are smarter than you and have more experience than you. And in the beginning, I hired people that didn't for the most part. And if I barely know what I'm doing, how am going to teach somebody? So now I only recruit people who have more experience. It's hard to do, but you got to stretch to kind of find really solid people, and then your company will grow and become much more organized and professional. Entrepreneurs think that they know everything, but really we don't know anything.” Join me this week as I interview Mario Dattilo, founder and CEO of Equity Growth, Inc. Mario has over 15 years of experience as an entrepreneur and real estate investor. After starting a business while still in high school, he skipped college altogether and built a real estate brokerage where he found his true passion for investing. After several years of wholesaling and flipping single-family homes with his father, he explored commercial properties and discovered the manufactured home community niche. Today, Mario owns over 1,000+ MHP lots and over $100 million in commercial real estate assets across 6 states. As a leading expert in the MHP community, Mario continues to share his knowledge through coaching on his platform, Real Cash Flow Coaching, in addition to his podcast and YouTube channel.     Mario and I discuss:   ·         His journey from network marketing to real estate ·         His transition from single-family homes to MHPs ·         How he expanded beyond Florida to other states ·         The process of financing MHPs ·         Lessons he has learned in property management ·         The importance and value of hiring experienced staff ·         The change in mindset from investor to business owner ·         Diversifying investments with assets that maintain stability ·         Exploring other storage units and other asset classes ·         His vision for growth and value of long-term investments ·         Choosing the right assets  ·         Transitioning from the syndication model to fund structure   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariodattilo/ Podcast: https://www.mariodattiloshow.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mariodattilo   https://mariodattilo.net/ www.EquityGrowth.net https://getrealcashflow.com/ ------------------------THE MILLIONAIRE JOURNEY Get your free e-book here: Top 10 Reasons Mobile Home Parks Outperform Other Real Estate Investments Invest with Glenn: https://www.verticalequityproperties.com/about www.themillionairejourney.nethttps://www.verticalequityproperties.com/   LinkedIn: @glennyaneyX (formerly Twitter): @glennyaney Podcast Management by Kelly Carlson Creative Services

Yeah, it's very different tenant situations I'm dealing with, just for instance,  in mobile home communities, a lot of things we deal with are noise complaints or like, you know, maybe somebody letting their dog off a leash, and then providing the basics like safety and security. And tiny home communities, at least this one, one of the most passionate debates we're having, that I'm mediating, is around the length of the grass.”  Join me this week as I interview Kevin Murray, an accomplished real estate entrepreneur in the MHP and tiny home communities, and owner of KLM Land.
