In this weeks podcast I discuss WHY MEN don't reach their potential.

Why would I discuss this topic?

Invariably, in most every meeting I have with investors the discussion turns from things like helping them raise capital OR purchasing their first (or next) apartment community or expanding their multi-family reach to these guys having this feeling (or KNOWING) that they are not reaching their potential as MEN in a lot of areas that are outside of investing and owning multi-family communities.

The conversations turn this way and this comes up so often that I decided to address it in this weeks podcast. After many of these conversations with MEN I cover the reasons why Men are not reaching their potential and why they are frustrated by it but also some things to consider if this does resonate with you.

If you are man feeling that feels he is not reaching his true potential and hitting those targets in his life that he KNOWS he can this weeks podcast is a must listen.

Dear Fellow Investor:

Everyone has (or will have depending on age) someone in their lives that are what I call "personal game changers". 

These people, usually NOT RELATIVES, play an integral part of your personal and/or financial success. 

On this podcast I talk about one of those people in MY life - Dan Kennedy. 

Whether you know of Dan or not I promise you there are great takeaways for you to listen in on that I share.  Dan has been a huge influence in my personal and financial life and I have a feeling the things I cover in this podcast will be equally as beneficial for you. 

Please take the time to listen in on this you will be so glad you did. 

THE 3 LIFE CHANGING THINGS I LEARNED FROM DAN KENNEDY

In this weeks podcast I talk about the MAIN reason investors choose not to own their own or invest in a great apartment community...

As you can imagine, I talk with hundreds of people a month about owning their own apartment community - large or small - being an active owner or a passive owner, etc.

So, I hear the MAIN reason why the majority of investors that do NOT invest in or own their own apartment community.

This reason can be expressed in one small word really. Just four simple letters...

In the end the MAIN reason is "BS" and getting in the way of many investment success stories and once this roadblock is removed the majority of investors wonder why they did NOT do this years (and years!) ago.

So, this week lets explore this MAIN reason and talk about the three EASY steps to throwing this BS reason in the trash and taking charge. Have a great day!

New Construction...

On the surface it sounds like a great idea.  "Let's just build an apartment community vs.  taking the time to find an existing one".  

In this weeks podcast I cover the all important reasons to avoid NEW CONSTRUCTION.  In three of my books I cover this but not at the length I cover it on this weeks podcast. 

Find out why even though renting will continue to grow over the years I do NOT recommend new construction projects for investors. 

Ironically, this is one of the reasons why EXISTING apartment communities will continue to grow in income and appreciate.  Again, find out why this week!

In this weeks podcast I talk about "signs" of being right about your investments EVEN WHEN THE EXPERTS are telling you what to do and what to invest in.

You CAN be smarter than the experts. A LOT smarter!

I share with you four stories that I have not told before to give you some examples of what I have been invovled in - personally.

Far too many folks see investments as a "gamble". Far too many times you see the words "bet" when it comes to investing and you have all sorts of EXPERTS telling you what to do.

I will give you the RED FLAG signs of investments to avoid and those you avoid that would blow up will make you more money by avoiding them then the ones that would truly pay off.

Dear Fellow Apartment Owner,

Many investors have good intentions but few follow through.

If you are an investor that can look in the mirror and honestly know you are not working to your investment potential, especially when it comes to making apartment communities a part of your investment word, or a LARGER part of it then this weeks podcast is for you my friend.

"4 Mistakes To Avoid When Building Your Apartment Holdings Kingdom..."

Most of the time we plan, talk about and work hard on everything EXCEPT a crisis.

It is easy to see why I mean who really wants to spend time, effort and energy talking about bad news? Talking about a crisis?

Well, in the INVESTMENT WORLD many times those that are the most successful ARE investing time, effort and energy in crisis mode.

By the way, this does NOT only apply to real estate and apartment communities it IS APPLICABLE TO ALL INVESTMENTS.

In this weeks podcast I dig deep into how SOME time in crisis can have a huge financial impact on not only your returns and income but also your overall financial world AND the world of those you care about. - "Crisis Management Investing - The Real Game Changer..."

Make sure you take the few minutes and listen in on this.

Formulas are great.

For many, using a formula, especially over and over again is the key to success - in really almost anything.

But as we head into a holiday weekend I am going to talk SPECIFICALLY about a REAL SIMPLE investment formula that my most successful investment partners AND sole apartment owners and investors use.

The good news?

It IS SIMPLE AND you can use it too!

So, as you go into this weekend I think you will be very surprised how easy it is to use this investment formula and how it CAN help you succeed FASTER - "The No BS Mult-Family Investment Formula That Works 100% Of The Time..."

Make sure you take the few minutes and listen in on this.

This IS the podcast for this week and you are welcome to listen in of course (see below) but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you watch the video of this. It is short, to the point and I think is MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE than the audio - but - the audio is not bad either.

In this weeks podcast I go into the top 5 or things that I hear from Iowa Apartment owners about  getting, well, pissed off. 

What I DID do though is SKIP the resident, tenants, management part of this.  THAT LIST would be super long!  No, I went outside of this list and hit on the main things I hear from Iowa Landlords. 

Take a listen and let me know what I have left off the list!
