    Profiting with Partnerships and Scaling with Systems: AJ Smith's Path to Financial Freedom

    Episode 43 with AJ Smith "I think that financial freedom is very much suited to the individual. It's something that each person may define for themselves. But for me, I think it's that last one. Right? I had initially - I think in my brain like -  it's the freedom to work for yourself, and I personally reached that level, you know, and I've enjoyed it. But, I think that as you go along in the journey, you also start to look for freedom to give back to the community, to lift up your friends and family, to do some of the other things that maybe you can't do if you're just kind of focused on base level survival for yourself and your family. And having the ability to do those things, I think is another another level, even above what we've talked about as well."Join me this week as I interview AJ Smith, the founder of Goldsmith Properties, LLC. AJ started his real estate journey a month out of college, analyzing over 700 deals before purchasing his first property. After a few years of working a W-2 while house hacking and flipping smaller multifamily spaces, he was ready to scale his portfolio and take on larger commercial real estate deals. With a focus on high-growth, landlord-friendly markets like Oklahoma City, Dallas, and Northwest Arkansas, AJ has successfully turned underperforming properties into profitable assets, including a recent project that increased rental income by over 50%.  His skill in value-add strategies and his expertise in managing teams and systems have helped him build a diverse portfolio of multifamily and commercial properties. AJ’s passion for real estate and disciplined management continues to drive his success, providing solid returns for investors and positioning Goldsmith Properties as a leader in the market.

    House Hacking to Financial Freedom: Michael Wagman’s Game-Changer Moment

    “Then when I moved to Tampa, I bought a four-unit building and I lived in one of the units. I renovated as many as I could, and then I moved into one. And that was the real game changer. An aha moment for me. And I mean, I had tried other things up to that point. I tried wholesaling; I hated that with a burning passion. I tried being a realtor and hated that even more than I hate wholesaling. So, props to any successful realtors out there. But buying that first four unit and accidentally sort of getting into house hacking was revolutionary for me because now that I no longer had a housing payment, I was actually getting paid to live where I was living.”  Join me this week as I interview Michael Wagman, the managing partner and co-founder of Nimble Capital Group. Michael began his real estate journey at the age of 25, flipping houses with no prior knowledge, all due to his love of the shows on HGTV. Having tried most strategies from wholesaling to house hacking to vacation rentals, he finally found his passion in multifamily and large syndication deals. Michael started with one flip that turned into 700 rental doors and 3 developments. Today, his company holds a portfolio of over $60 million.  Michael and I discuss: ·         His love of HGTV that led to flipping houses ·         The impact of house hacking to financial freedom ·         His transition from flipping to multifamily investments and development ·         Navigating the multifamily market post-pandemic ·         Creative financing strategies ·         Understanding development projects and deals ·         Investor profiles and market sentiment ·         Tax strategies and real estate investments   Episode Links:   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelwagman/ YouTube: @nimblecapitalgroup5053 IG: https://www.instagram.com/nimble_capital_group/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nimblecapital2022   https://nimblecapitalgroup.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

    Cashflow Concepts: IBC and Velocity Banking with Logan Hertz (Part 2)

    Episode 41 with Logan Hertz (Part 2) "Most people, unfortunately, put the cart before the horse where they start investing before they start saving. Right. And part of the way that they are manipulated is the financial powers that be tell them that they're saving for retirement by putting money in a 401k. That's not a savings vehicle. That's an investing vehicle and you're giving up liquidity. Putting money into whole life insurance is building liquidity. It's a savings vehicle. Putting money into a savings account is a savings vehicle. Right? So you need to start with that foundation first. You start with the protection, the savings, then you can get into investing and then into speculating." Join me this week for the second half of my interview with Logan Hertz the Founder of Hazeltine, LLC. This week we focus on how to use the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) with velocity banking to make the most of your money. Logan spent over a decade as a business strategy consultant for C-Level Executives. While in the corporate space, he began to question the conventional strategies for building financial freedom and in his quest discovered dividend-paying whole life insurance. In 2020, he founded Hazeltine, LLC and became an Infinite Banking Specialist, setting out to help clients escape traditional banking to become their own bankers.   Logan and I discuss: Combining IBC and velocity banking for successLiquidity, access, and control in financial strategiesThe role of savings before investingThe role of liquidity in financial securityEpisode Links:   LinkedIn: @loganhertz YouTube: @HazeltineLLC Email: info@hazeltinellc.com www.hazeltinellc.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

    Cashflow Concepts: IBC and Velocity Banking with Logan Hertz (Part 1)

    Episode 40 with Logan Hertz   “Yeah, your human life value. So, first of all, most people fully insure their houses. They fully insure their cars. They would never think of not doing such a thing, but they don't fully insure their lives. In fact, they don't even know what their human life value is, right? So when people ask, you know, they ask how much life insurance do I need? Well, that's the wrong question. Okay. Who's the expert at determining your human life value? It's not you.” Join me this week as I interview Logan Hertz the Founder of Hazeltine, LLC in part one of two episodes focusing on Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) and velocity banking.

    Tactical Strategies and Teamwork: How Zander Kempf Builds an RV Resort Empire

    Episode 39 with Zander Kempf   “I've always wanted to be an entrepreneur. It's always been my goal, even since I was a little kid. I want to start businesses. I want to work for myself. I want to go find opportunity and monetize it. Back in high school, I was selling small knickknacks. I started a landscaping company and had about 10 guys working for me back then. Throughout college, I’d come up with a handful of different business ideas. None of them went anywhere, but I just always kept trying. So, when I was in the military, I finally saw real estate as that opportunity. It's like, this is something that I can just see an immense amount of power in, and you can leverage in so many different ways.” Join me this week as I interview Zander Kempf, the Founder and CEO of Clear Summit Investments. Zander specializes in developing RV and glamping resorts near national parks. With nearly a decade of experience in real estate development and finance, Zander is also a decorated veteran, having served as a Captain in the 82nd Airborne Division.

    Fully Funded Mindset: Sam Silverman's Investment Strategies

    Episode 38 with Sam Silverman   “You're investing with that person. And the biggest thing is - you know I think of this as the gut check, right? Like I manage my mom's full portfolio of her investments, and I know whatever shortcoming there may be in the future, that's a gap that I'll go fill. So, I think of it as, ‘What if my mom's money was with this person – would I sleep okay at night?’ It’s the first thing. Like numbers aside, returns aside, pro formas aside. You think of the gut check of, ‘Does this person make me feel comfortable? Do I trust them at a high level on a first conversation? Do I feel as though they are aligned to me ethically… morally? Are they going to do what they say they're going to do within reason?’” Join me as I interview Sam Silverman, the founder of Silverman Hold Co and the Fully Funded mastermind community. Sam started in sales and marketing before making the leap to real estate and passive investments. After realizing the limitations of single-family homes, he explored multifamily and syndications.  Before going full-time and founding Silverman Capital in 2021, Sam raised an impressive $25 million in funds. Sam’s company specializes in passive investment opportunities for a variety of assets from multifamily to mobile home parks to debt investments. Today, Silverman Hold Co manages a portfolio of over 12,000 units valued at more than $2 billion.   Sam and I discuss:   ·         His early entrepreneurship and journey from sales ·         Real estate investment strategies and syndication ·         Investment goals and evaluating investment opportunities ·         Exploring debt funds and hard money lending ·         Investment structure and returns ·         Mobile home pack financing options ·         Opportunities in the paving industry   Episode Links:   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samfullyfunded/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/sam_silvers/?hl=en Apple: The Fully Funded Show Spotify: The Fully Funded Show Email: sam@silvermancapital.co https://silvermancapital.co/ https://fullyfunded.capital/------------------------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

    Mastermind Momentum: James Lascara’s Elite Investor Insight

    Episode 37 with James Lascara “You do not need to be the one with all the right answers all the time, but you need to know where they are. You need to know where those people are. need to know how to find them. And you need to make sure you do a good job of understanding the risks that could be catastrophic. I like to give the fitness analogy, like if I'm going in and I'm doing something I've never done before, and I need a spotter on the bench. I'm doing a weight I've never done before, I may not need that spotter, but I want to make sure he's there so something really bad doesn't happen. I treat real estate the same way, right?” Join me as I interview James Lascara, the Founder & CEO of Poseidon 25 Developments, Lascara Real Estate, Trident Rental Group, and Lascara Capital. James has achieved incredible results with his team over only a few years. Between 2022-2023, he conducted over $28 million in sales volume, initiated multiple 7-figure development projects, and conducted over $1M of private debt transactions. Remarkably, James elevated a $400,000 AUM portfolio to an impressive $10.5M AUM portfolio within just four years. With his Elite Investor Mastermind group, James continues to share his experiences and empowers real estate investors to make connections and collaborate for success.   James and I discuss: His transition from house hacking and single-family to development projectsThe power of collaboration with the right people in real estateFinancing construction and development projectsHow to make strategic real estate offersThe value of mastermind groupsThe evolution of his “Elite Investor Event”Setting goals for financial freedom Episode Links: LinkedIn: @james-lascara Instagram: @jplinvest YouTube: The Elite Investor Show   https://www.poseidon25.com/   https://www.poseidon25.com/elite-investor-mindset ------------------------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
