After building multiple businesses and exiting an 8-figure supplement company in 18 months, Carlos knew he had to look for a way to not repeat the same hustle over and over. There had to be an easier process.

Then, that's when Carlos found real estate. More specifically, multifamily real estate. In less than 12 months, Carlos went from being a novice investor to becoming a multifamily real estate expert with over 1000 multifamily doors under his belt. He is on track to acquire 1 billion dollars worth of multifamily real estate in under 5 years.

Jim Lee was born and raised in Taiwan. At age 11, Jim emigrated to the United States with his family in pursuit of a better life and living the American Dream. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from UCLA in 2010, and started his career as an inside sales representative for LoopNet/Costar. By being the top sales rep and earning the highest accolades and recognition amongst his peers, he worked with top real estate agents who helped him spark his interest in real estate and acquired his very first property. After achieving this milestone, he understood the power of passive income and how real estate can help build long term wealth. Now, he is looking to leverage real estate syndication to help investors achieve the same goal of financial freedom, and generate returns to all looking for a transparent partnership. His humble beginnings motivate him to take care of family, who weren’t given the same opportunities and give back to those who helped him along the way. Those closest to Jim can attest to his passion and persistence to do whatever it takes to help reach their goals.

Andrea is the full EOS definition of a visionary, but also enjoys being a leader and integrator.

Andrea’s 20+ years of experience in the small business sector gives me great aptitude in regard to strategic planning and innovation. She has seen small businesses succeed and fail and it generally relates back to two major influences: people and cash flow.

Although she is very analytical and practical, her education and life experiences give her the ability to also understand the psyche of both business owners & employees. This unique combination provides Andrea the opportunity to really enhance the lives of those that she is able to work alongside.

Andrea wears many hats in her professional life. She founded her first business in 2007 and just sold it in 2022. She started a home-service business with her husband for "fun" and they do that in their spare time. She is a business consultant for various business owners across the country and she is also the CEO/CFO and Asset Manager of her multi-family real estate portfolio, which she is looking to expand. All of this while raising 3 brilliant humans that just so happen to call her mom.

Jim Lee was born and raised in Taiwan. At age 11, Jim emigrated to the United States with his family in pursuit of a better life and living the American Dream. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from UCLA in 2010, and started his career as an inside sales representative for LoopNet/Costar. By being the top sales rep and earning the highest accolades and recognition amongst his peers, he worked with top real estate agents who helped him spark his interest in real estate and acquired his very first property. After achieving this milestone, he understood the power of passive income and how real estate can help build long term wealth. Now, he is looking to leverage real estate syndication to help investors achieve the same goal of financial freedom, and generate returns to all looking for a transparent partnership. His humble beginnings motivate him to take care of family, who weren’t given the same opportunities and give back to those who helped him along the way. Those closest to Jim can attest to his passion and persistence to do whatever it takes to help reach their goals.

Andrea is the full EOS definition of a visionary, but also enjoys being a leader and integrator.

Andrea’s 20+ years of experience in the small business sector gives me great aptitude in regard to strategic planning and innovation. She has seen small businesses succeed and fail and it generally relates back to two major influences: people and cash flow.

Although she is very analytical and practical, her education and life experiences give her the ability to also understand the psyche of both business owners & employees. This unique combination provides Andrea the opportunity to really enhance the lives of those that she is able to work alongside.

Andrea wears many hats in her professional life. She founded her first business in 2007 and just sold it in 2022. She started a home-service business with her husband for "fun" and they do that in their spare time. She is a business consultant for various business owners across the country and she is also the CEO/CFO and Asset Manager of her multi-family real estate portfolio, which she is looking to expand. All of this while raising 3 brilliant humans that just so happen to call her mom.

**Episode 234: Friday Look Back - Mailbag Episode: Should You Buy A Cheap Property?

Host: Simon Castillo

  • Falling interest rates often reflect economic slowdown rather than growth, which can be detrimental for real estate investing.

**Episode 211: Friday Lookback - What The Fed Did and Didn't Say About The Rate Cut

Host: Simon Castillo

Join our host Simon Castillo for a one on one Friday Look Back episode as he reflects on:**

  • The Fed’s interest rate cut is a proactive measure aimed at stabilizing the economy. While it may not immediately lower borrowing costs for real estate investors, it sets a tone for future economic conditions.
  • The inverted yield curve has historically indicated a potential economic slowdown. With the recent rate cut, investors should monitor the yield on the 10-year treasury for clues on long-term financing costs.
  • Rate-cutting cycles tend to happen more swiftly than rate hikes. This suggests investors should be prepared for potential rapid shifts in the market environment.
  • As interest rates fall, real estate investors need to remain adaptable in their strategies. Monitoring market trends will be essential for capitalizing on new opportunities.

**Episode 164: Single Family Versus Commercial Real Estate

Host: Simon Castillo

Join our host Simon Castillo for a one on one Friday Look Back episode as he reflects on:**

  • Single family vs commercial real estate, both provide you with traditional advantages in real estate investing in terms of cash flow, equity appreciation, and leverage depth, which can be risky if not structured properly.
  • Commercial Real Estate investing can be more scaleable and simple than single-family homes.
  • On Single property, you have the opportunity to learn by simply acquiring one property, get control of it, and make local investments.
  • If you are looking to build generational wealth, I think both syndication and commercial real estate and single family properties can do it for you but there's more risk involved.

Episode 90: Scaling Rapidly with Commercial Real Estate Featuring Carlos Salguero

Host: Simon Castillo

Guest: Carlos Salguero

Producer: April Munson

Simon Castillo is joined by Carlos Salguero to discuss:

  • What is the best vehicle to invest my money?
  • Attracting talent is an essential part of scaling a business to any significant size
  • The value of building the right team in your business
  • The importance of tenant treatment
  • If people don’t know you, they can’t do business with you

Carlos Salguero is a professional real estate investor who has made it his mission to help others achieve success in the real estate industry. Husband to a wonderful wife and father to three beautiful kids, Carlos knows the importance of building generational wealth for his family.

After building multiple businesses and exiting an 8-figure supplement company in 18 months, Carlos knew he had to look for a way to not repeat the same hustle over and over. There had to be an easier process.

Then, that's when Carlos found real estate. More specifically, multifamily real estate. In less than 12 months, Carlos went from being a novice investor to becoming a multifamily real estate expert with over 1000 multifamily doors under his belt. He is on track to acquire 1 billion dollars worth of multifamily real estate in under 5 years.

Episode 76: How to Overcome Struggles, Challenges and Setbacks as a Real Estate Investor

Host: Simon Castillo

Guest: Sam Bates

Producer: April Munson

Simon Castillo is joined by Sam Bates to discuss:

  • Mistakes made when investing in single family
  • Working on too many house flips at once
  • How do you get banks and investors to put trust in you without having done a development deal in your career?
  • Managing the current fear in the market
  • Biggest challenges when focusing on development

Sam Bates is the founder and CEO of Bates Capital Group. Sam started his real estate journey in 2009 and has been directly involved in the acquisition or development, reposition, disposition, asset management, and strategic planning of over $200,000,000 in AUM. His portfolio currently has 1,035 multifamily units in Texas and the South East. They have 1,100 units in the development pipeline.

Sam and his team have provided an average IRR of 61% on all deals that have gone full cycle. The market cannot provide this and someone would be hard-pressed to find another real estate investor to provide these types of returns to their clients.

Sam spent over a decade in Corporate America working in various consulting, finance, and accounting positions. He quickly realized a W-2 job was not going to satisfy his desire to help people improve their lives. Once Sam started investing in real estate, he quickly realized how powerful real estate is and decided this was how he wanted to help others meet their goals and create generation wealth to leave their legacy.

Episode 64: Creating The Path To Becoming A Real Estate Syndictor

Host: Simon Castillo

Guest: Jim Lee

Producer: April Munson

Simon Castillo is joined by Jim Lee to discuss:

  • Building a real estate portfolio
  • What is multifamily syndication and why should people invest in it?
  • Achieving your dreams through multifamily investments
  • Investing in yourself through education
  • Networking is key to success in the real estate industry
  • The value of mentorship and masterminds
  • The building phase that it takes to put yourself out in the world as a leader in the real estate industry

Jim Lee was born and raised in Taiwan. At age 11, Jim emigrated to the United States with his family in pursuit of a better life and living the American Dream. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from UCLA in 2010, and started his career as an inside sales representative for LoopNet/Costar. By being the top sales rep and earning the highest accolades and recognition amongst his peers, he worked with top real estate agents who helped him spark his interest in real estate and acquired his very first property. After achieving this milestone, he understood the power of passive income and how real estate can help build long term wealth. Now, he is looking to leverage real estate syndication to help investors achieve the same goal of financial freedom, and generate returns to all looking for a transparent partnership. His humble beginnings motivate him to take care of family, who weren’t given the same opportunities and give back to those who helped him along the way. Those closest to Jim can attest to his passion and persistence to do whatever it takes to help reach their goals.

Episode 58: Finding Hidden Multifamily Opportunities with Andrea Foley

Host: Simon Castillo

Guest: Andrea Foley

Producer: April Munson

Simon Castillo is joined by Andrea Foley to discuss:

  • Buying hotels and converting to multifamily
  • Solutions for affordable housing

Andrea is the full EOS definition of a visionary, but also enjoys being a leader and integrator.

Andrea’s 20+ years of experience in the small business sector gives me great aptitude in regard to strategic planning and innovation. She has seen small businesses succeed and fail and it generally relates back to two major influences: people and cash flow.

Although she is very analytical and practical, her education and life experiences give her the ability to also understand the psyche of both business owners & employees. This unique combination provides Andrea the opportunity to really enhance the lives of those that she is able to work alongside.

Andrea wears many hats in her professional life. She founded her first business in 2007 and just sold it in 2022. She started a home-service business with her husband for "fun" and they do that in their spare time. She is a business consultant for various business owners across the country and she is also the CEO/CFO and Asset Manager of her multi-family real estate portfolio, which she is looking to expand. All of this while raising 3 brilliant humans that just so happen to call her mom.

  • That was a 34 million dollar mistake

  • The money is the easy part. The money can be found. It’s available.
  • If you master yourself, you’ll master the market
  • If you have access to internet, you have access to income

Jerremy Alexander Newsome, the CEO and Founder of Real Life Trading, has lived a life most would find sort of unconventional.  Growing up dirt poor in rural Georgia, to now owning part of an island and living an extremely blessed life, he knows what is only possible when you become serious about changing your mindset, and deciding to live a mentally delicious abundant lifestyle!

Episode 36: Passive Real Estate Investing Is Truly Magical, The Wealth That Passive Real Estate Investing Can Create For Families Is Life Changing

Host: Simon Castillo

Guest: Angie Aki

Producer: April Munson

Simon Castillo is joined by Angie Aki to discuss:

  • Immense growth from wholesaling in real estate
  • Set goals and be very clear about the desired outcome of those goals
  • Partner with others who have unique skills to help the group grow as a team
  • Time freedom - what does that mean?
  • More wealth to be in the hands of women in the coming years!
  • We need more female investors in the industry

Angie Aki has been a real estate investor for the past 4+ years. She left a successful pharmaceutical sales career in 2019 after 18 years in corporate America to enter real estate investing full-time. That is when she discovered passive real estate investing and fell in love with it.

She currently invests both actively and passively. She has successfully executed over 100 real estate transactions as an active investor and has an equity share in over 600 doors as an operator, co-GP, fund manager, LP or lender.

She founded Ohana Investment Partners to bring the magic of passive real estate investing to as many people as possible so they can grow their wealth alongside me without taking on another full-time job. They focus on multifamily and commercial assets in the Southeast US and the Sun Belt States as well as development and entitlement projects in Florida and Texas.
