When inspecting a home before purchasing, it's obviously very important to check the foundation's integrity. That's why we hire inspectors. But should you rely on your home inspection report to correctly identify the issues? Our guest today says, no, it's not enough.  You need to know the tell-tale signs of foundation damage that would signal the need for further inspection, and then you need to know who to call. But how do you make sure you can get it all done within the homebuyers short inspection window of time?   In this episode, you’ll hear from foundation repair expert RK Bob Brown whose mission it is to shed light on what he describes as an “opaque industry.” He joins me on The Real Wealth Show as part of his effort to teach home buyers how to recognize the red flags for foundation problems. He talks about what homeowners should look for, when and who to call for a more accurate and in-depth evaluation, and why you need to pay attention to soil conditions. He earned the nickname “The Dirt Whisperer” because he knows a lot about “dirt.” He is also a real estate investor who shares his rags to riches story with me in this interview.   Bob has more than 35 years of experience. He’s a certified Foundation Repair Specialist by NFRA and is LEED accredited, among other accreditations. He founded Arizona Foundation Solutions in 1989 which he says was one of the only foundation repair companies to use licensed professional engineers. He sold the company last year to focus on speaking and writing, and is publishing a book this fall called Foundation Repair Secrets: Learn How to Protect Yourself and Save Thousands. He has also developed software that helps streamline home foundation investigations. You can learn more at his website: https://www.RKbobBrown.com   To learn more about all the things you need to know about real estate investing, sign up as a RealWealth member. It’s free to join.

He was studying biology but had extra time on his hands and discovered real estate as a way to build wealth. He started off as a house hacker with the purchase of a four-unit building. From there, he leveraged every kind of resource you can imagine to help him with his journey. As he explains in the interview, when you get advice from 10 people who each have 10 years of experience, you are getting insights from 100 years of experience.    He’s now offering to help other investors as the CEO and founder of Bright Investor, which provides data to help you make smart real estate investing decisions.

Gen Z Shares Steps to Real Estate Wealth & Financial Freedom

Gary Beasley

I'm very excited about today's interview with Gary Beasley, CEO &amp; Co-Founder of Roofstock. He was just a regular guy when I met him years ago. Today, he’s a leader in the institutional investment space and a true disrupter within the single-family rental asset class.   In this episode, you’ll hear his thoughts on how the housing market has evolved since the 2008 meltdown, how he has transitioned his own real estate investing strategy over the years, and why he thinks that the single-family rental space is an asset class that will remain in high demand.   Before Roofstock, Gary was CFO of ZipRealty and Co-CEO of Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust which is now part of Invitation Homes, leading both through successful IPOs. In addition, he’s been instrumental in acquiring and integrating more than $800 million in resort properties for KSL Resorts and has served as CEO for boutique hotel management company Joie De Vivre Hospitality.   Gary earned his BA in Economics from Northwestern and holds an MBA from Stanford. He now leads Roofstock with a valuable perspective on the use of technology in the real estate industry and challenges the way things have been done with the question: “What’s next?”   You can follow him at these social media sites: LinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/gary-beasley-956647 Twitter - @garybeas2013   To find out more about how you can benefit from real estate, sign up as a RealWealth member. It’s free to join and will give you access to our private investor portal, hundreds of webinars, sample pro-formas, help with the acquisition process, referrals to our highly recommended real estate professionals, and a free session with one of our experienced investment counselors.    And don’t forget to hit the subscribe button for this podcast and leave a review!    Thanks for listening, Kathy Fettke   Follow Kathy on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/kathyfettke/ Purchase Kathy’s audiobook on Audible at: https://tinyurl.com/retirerichaudible

Roofstock’s Gary Beasley on the Single-Family Rental Revolution

Have you ever listened to fellow investors brag about how many doors they have as a measure of success? But do the number of doors you have really matter when it comes to how well your portfolio is performing? Honestly, I don’t think so. What really matters is how well those doors are performing. Are they providing enough cash flow so you can live the life of your dreams? Are they appreciating in value to help meet your financial goals? Those are the questions at the top of my list! In this episode, you’ll hear from someone who’s living proof that you don't have to own 5000 units to be successful. Vince Rodriquez is an engineer who began his real estate adventure just four years ago. As a Southern California resident, he started investing in California but is now transitioning to out-of-state rental properties. He’s currently focused on furnished duplexes in the mid-term space and has some great ideas for choosing markets and raising investment capital in a way that also helps family and friends. To find out more about real estate investing in a way that suits your goals, sign up as a RealWealth member. It’s free to join and will give you access to access to hundreds of webinars and other educational material, along with our market data and investment counselors who help get you going.

An Engineer’s Advice for Making Money NOW in Real Estate

Does it still make sense to buy rental property today when mortgage rates are at the 7% level? Should you buy your rate down with points or wait a few months to see if rates come down as many experts are predicting? And what about getting approved for a loan? Is it any harder now to get a loan in this tough credit environment?   In this episode, you’ll hear from one of RealWealth’s preferred lenders, Graham Parham and his business partner Aaron Stelly of Highlands Mortgage. They join me to provide some insights on the lending world as it stands today, along with some good news about inflation and how that is impacting mortgage rates.   Graham W. Parham has been a Mortgage Loan Officer for over 25 years. He has experience in the residential real estate market and has developed a significant following among homebuyers and investors. He currently owns 45 investment properties and is still buying.   Aaron Stelly helps guide clients through the lending process from start to finish. He’s an active investor and recognizes the goals that investors are hoping to achieve as they grow their real estate portfolio.   You can get a hold of Graham at graham@theparhamteam.com. You’ll also find contact information for Graham and his Highland Mortgage team on our website. You need to be a RealWealth member but it’s free to sign up. Once you’ve done that, log in to the portal and look under the Resources tab for Lenders.    If you’d like to find out more about the North Dallas Rental Fund I mentioned during this episode, go to https://growdevelopments.com.   As always, I ask that you subscribe to the Real Wealth Show podcast, and leave a starry-eyed review!

Rick Sharga on the Future of Home Prices, Foreclosures & Interest Rates

We all want our children to be well educated so they can lead successful lives, but some of the most important subject matter for success is missing from school curricula. Financial literacy includes things like checking and savings accounts, budgeting, investing, the use of credit and credit cards, insurance, paying taxes, paying for college, and even the purchase of a home. But there isn’t much in the way of personal finance on the list of classes that kids take in high school.   The guest in this episode is hoping to change that. Yanely Espinal is a millennial financial educator who started her career as a teacher and is now on a mission to convince lawmakers to make personal finance a high school graduation requirement. She serves as the Director of Educational Outreach at Next Gen Personal Finance (NGPF) and has been instrumental in getting legislation passed in several states including Florida (SB1054), Michigan (HB5190), Georgia (SB 220), Rhode Island (H 5491) and North Carolina (HB 924). CNBC called her “the millennial fighting for Gen Z to learn about money in school.”   Yanely, who’s also known on the internet as MissBeHelpful, is also the author of a newly released book on the topic called: “Mind Your Money: Insightful Stories and Strategies to Help You Reach Your #MoneyGoals.” Her new book is available on Amazon. She’s also the host of a podcast called “Financially Inclined from Marketplace” and one of the youngest members of CNBC’s Financial Wellness Council, among other notable accomplishments.    If you’d like to learn more about how real estate can give you financial freedom, we encourage you to visit our website at realwealthshow.com.

The Missing Key to Success: Financial Literacy for High Schoolers

This episode of the Real Wealth Show is a little different! My guest is the winner of an Instagram contest for a free coaching session with me! Courtney Clark won the contest by responding to a promotion on Instagram. Her number then came up in a random number generator, and we booked her for the show! Courtney is an experienced real estate investor. She’s been doing it for many years with her husband, and she offers a very candid view of how that’s worked out, including a few recent losses from flipping that left her feeling unsure of her next steps. We do a deep dive into that fear that’s making her feel like she’s suddenly lost credibility as an investor. It’s a delightful interview with lots of insight into how Courtney is dealing with the ups and downs of her portfolio.  We do offer coaching services at RealWealth. If you’re not already a member, you would need to sign up at realwealthshow.com. It’s free to sign up.

If you follow financial advice on social media, you may already know about “The FI Couple.” They are a husband and wife team in their early 30’s with a huge following on Instagram, Twitter, and other platforms, to help spread the word about financial independence – which is the FI part of their name.   In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Ali &amp; Josh Lupo talk about their humble beginnings as college students pursuing degrees in social services and a wedding that provided a big wake-up call about their finances. It was bad. They had a whole lot of debt and knew they had to do something about it. They turned to podcasts, and videos, and learned about “passive income” through real estate investing. From there, they mapped out a plan, and within a few short years, they are job optional and expecting a baby girl.   But it wasn’t just the financial part of their relationship that they worked on. They also spent a lot of time on their personal relationship and their skills in communicating with each other to help them envision and align their goals as a couple. They also love to share their experiences with other people as "The FI Couple". Once you are enchanted by them in this interview, you can find out more at their website: theficouple.com, or on social media @theficouple on all major platforms.   My hubby and partner, Rich Fettke, also joins me as co-host for this episode. He is a long-time coach who loves to help people realize their dreams and live their best lives. He recently published a book called “The Wise Investor” about a family man who wants to free up his time with passive income from real estate. Rich's book is available on Amazon.   If you’d like to find out what a coach can do for you, please check out our RealWealth coaching services.

“The FI Couple” on Real Estate Investing and Financial Freedom

This episode is dedicated to real estate investing as a couple, and the real life story of two RealWealth members who are making it happen! This is the second time we’ve featured Kevin &amp; Michelle Yu on the Real Wealth Show to find out how far along they’ve gotten with their real estate plans, what’s changed along the way, and how they are dealing with it. Kevin &amp; Michelle are working parents with full-time jobs but their real estate portfolio has made it possible to quit those jobs if they want to. They started investing about ten years ago and have almost reached a goal they set for retirement. They will share stories about where they’ve invested, how they’ve learned to be flexible as the market changes, what’s next, and why they feel it’s so important to create a real estate nest egg for themselves and their two young children. My hubby, Rich, joins me as a co-host for this special episode on couples investing, which we’ve been doing for more than two decades! If you’d like to take the RealWealth assessment that Rich mentions, please go to https://realwealth.com/assessment/. Kevin also mentioned a Netflix series you might be interested in called “How to Get Rich.”  To learn more about real estate investing, please sign up as a RealWealth member.

How can you dramatically increase your ability to invest with the money you are currently sending to Uncle Sam? By redirecting those big checks you send to the government into investments that also benefit the government;.. and change your life while you're doing it.   In this episode, you’ll hear from Susan Geist who had a wake up call when she wrote a six-figure check to cover her tax obligations. She analyzed the situation and with strategic investment-related tax deductions, figured out a way to reduce her federal tax bill by more than $100,000 annually!    It’s an incredible story considering her background as someone who grew up in a lower-class family in rural Appalachia. Her story is one of financial hardship as a child and a commitment to attain financial security for herself and help others do the same.   With a salary of just $42,000 a year, she managed to buy her first property in 2008. Today she owns a multi-million-dollar portfolio consisting of long-term rentals, short-term vacation rentals, and limited partnerships in commercial real estate that pay her six figures of passive income annually.    She also helps women working to attain financial freedom with her company Rising Femme Wealth, LLC, out of Austin, Texas. She provides coaching and workshops that teach women strategies for financial freedom, including ways to reduce their tax bills. In her spare time, she likes to travel with her husband and two sons, and create music with her all-female band.   You can get help creating your own financial lifeboat by joining RealWealth at realwealthshow.com.

“Ask Kathy” - How to Solve Real Estate Investing Disagreements with Your Spouse

I just got back from being on the road for a week in four different cities and at three different events. A few people asked me what my company, Real Wealth, does. I thought that was funny since we've been around for 20 years and I just assume people know.    But in case you were wondering, it's pretty simple. We help people increase their passive income by helping them acquire a portfolio of cash-flowing rental properties in growing markets nationwide.    We simplify the process by identifying experienced property managers who specialize in working with out-of-state investors. These teams have everything an out-of-state investor needs to purchase rental properties including acquisition teams, renovation teams, property management, and most importantly, experienced professionals with a proven track record of success.    We offer a free mastermind to these teams so they can continue to improve their service and share their best practices and knowledge with each other. Any team on our referral list comes with rave reviews from our RealWealth members. And if they don't, they are removed from our referral list until those issues are resolved.    And, all that we do at RealWealth is free to our members because we get paid from a broker-to-broker referral fee that the buyer would have to pay anyway. It just gets split with us.    In this episode, I'm going to interview one of our newest teams located in Cleveland, Ohio. I love Cleveland and have been investing there for years. But it can be tricky. You really need a good team there because the city regulations can be burdensome and some neighborhoods look good on paper but in reality can be very challenging.   To get in touch with Mike and his team in Cleveland, sign in to the RealWealth website and login to the Investor Portal. If you haven't become a member yet, please click on the "Join for Free" button. It's easy to sign up and will give you complete access to our website where you can see sample properties in more than a dozen markets across the country, our market data, and our list of preferred real estate professionals including our RealWealth investment counselors. And please remember to subscribe to the podcast to help boost our ratings!    Thanks for listening! Kathy Fettke

How to Safely Acquire Rental Property in Cleveland, Ohio

How would you like to reach your financial goals in half the time you planned?  Our guests today are doing just that. Sophie bought her first rental property when she was just 23 years old, thanks to having a Mom who encouraged her to buy real estate.  Sophie's husband Ben didn't know much about real estate when they got married, but they both had MBAs, and both worked at Northern California tech companies making a great income. They ended up with two rental properties in the Bay Area that didn't cash flow. In this episode, Sophie and Ben share how they used those negative cash flow properties to build a cash flow machine by investing out-of-state. They say they've reached their financial goals 15 years earlier than they had planned.  You can learn more about doing this for yourself by joining RealWealth. You’ll find plenty of free educational material on our website. Our investment counselors can also refer you to experienced property teams who can help you get started in real estate.

Out-of-State Rentals: How One Young Couple Hit a 30-Year Goal in Just 15 Years!

The dream of being a passive investor is turning into a bit of a nightmare for some people who invested in commercial real estate. They are getting bitten by higher interest rates, slow rent growth, and dramatically higher costs for rate caps and insurance. A 229-unit apartment complex recently foreclosed in Houston, making headlines across the country and leaving hundreds of investors at a total loss. How can investors be more prepared moving forward?   In this episode, you’ll hear from Whitney Elkins-Hutten on the eight deal breakers that limited partners should be looking for when they work with an operator or for any kind of real estate deal. Whitney is the Director of Investor Education at PassiveInvesting.com and a partner in $800+ MIllion in real estate. Her investments include over 6500+ units in residential housing (single-family, multi-family, manufactured housing, and assisted living), seven express car washes, and more than 2200+ self-storage units across 11 states. She also has experience flipping more than $5 Million in residential real estate.   The content of this interview is why I love my single family rental fund. We are raising cash, buying with cash, renovating with cash, increasing values, and refinancing if we get a really good rate with a fixed term. All in an area experiencing job and population growth with high demand for housing. You can find out more at GrowDevelopments.com.   Be sure to join RealWealth for full access to our educational material and our investment opportunities.

Part II of II - Apartment Investor Challenges with CRE Lender James Eng

A $229 Million multifamily portfolio was just foreclosed on in Houston, Texas. It’s the first of what could be similar foreclosures in the commercial real estate industry.

He’ll explain why commercial real estate could be facing a massive reckoning, especially for investors who took out bridge loans.

Part I of II - Apartment Investor Challenges with CRE Lender James Eng

Why are some people able to reach levels of wealth at a faster pace than others? It may have something to do with their mindset, or their ability to overcome internal blocks.    Normally, I interview people on their journey to creating wealth so that we can learn from their experiences. But today, we are going to dive into the deeper stuff: The subconscious thoughts that often control our decision-making process, which may lead us astray from our wealth-building goals.   In this episode, you’ll hear from Alecia St. Germain. She’s a Certified Immunity to Change Coach and the founder of The Conscious Edge – a leadership and personal development company focused on empowering female entrepreneurs.   She began her real estate journey in her late teens and 20’s wholesaling probate properties with her mother. She then moved on to mobile home investing in the state of Ohio. After seeing so many women in the real estate industry unconsciously sabotage their own success because of inner conflicts about wealth and their role in the business world, she moved into the personal development side of things as a coach.   Alecia has now helped more than 10,000 entrepreneurs with strategies and tactics that help them uncover and transform their unconscious blocks so they can confidently make money, reclaim their time, and step boldly into their role as leaders.   You will find Alecia at the upcoming InvestHER CON 2023. It’s happening May 18 &amp; 19 in Scottsdale, Arizona. You’ll find details at therealestateinvestorher.com/investhercon   If you're interested in joining my mastermind for high-level female entrepreneurs, check out my website kathyfettke.com for details.    If you haven’t yet joined RealWealth, you can become a member for free at realwealthshow.com.

Finding the Best U.S. Real Estate Markets

Call it dumb luck or brilliant market timing. Our guest today bailed out of the stock market right before the Great Recession, and gravitated toward real estate in 2009 with a pile of cash. Since then, he’s invested in single-family, multi-family, and vacation rentals. He has also invested in fix-and-flips, and more than 25 syndicated deals. He is currently part of the Investor Relations Team at Ashcroft Capital and has made it his mission to share what he’s learned with others. One of his favorite topics is how to create more time in your life or what he calls “time freedom.” I am delighted to welcome Travis Watts to the Real Wealth Show.   www.RealWealthShow.com
