In this season two finale of Storage Wins, host Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan, the investor he has coached through 40 episodes on the journey to buying his first self-storage facility. Alex also marks a personal milestone: ten years behind the mic, with a podcast published nearly every single week.

This episode is a reflection on the entire season, the lessons that matter most for new storage investors, and why finishing the season without a closed deal is not failure. If you are working toward your first storage facility and need a reminder that confidence follows action and progress is rarely linear, this conversation is for you.

You'll Learn How To:

Build real confidence in your underwriting by putting in the reps deal after deal
Treat relationship capital as the most valuable asset you can raise
Protect your momentum once you have it instead of letting life knock you off track
Use accountability partners to stay consistent without depending on them
Make offers as the fastest way to learn the business and create urgency
Keep self-storage investing simple instead of overcomplicating the process
Find a community or mentor rather than trying to figure it out alone
Reframe a season that ends without a closing as success, not failure

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:17] Alex opens the season two finale and frames it around the journey, not the facility

[1:04] Why Dan was on a very short list of people Alex trusted to see this through

[2:17] Dan on never having considered a podcast and what made this the right scenario

[3:19] Dan's biggest breakthrough after underwriting hundreds of deals on the show

[3:54] How confidence replaced the tough early conversations they rolled up their sleeves on

[5:31] The common themes of season two: big why, reps, and the right people around you

[5:55] Why relationship capital matters more than spreadsheets in this business

[6:47] Top season lessons, starting with confidence follows action

[7:11] Momentum is fragile, so protect it at all costs once you have it

[7:51] Why underwriting does not need to take four hours

[9:07] Make offers because offers get you in the game and create real urgency

[9:41] Ask for help, find your tribe, and stop trying to do this alone

[10:31] Progress is not linear, with a jiu jitsu lesson on messy real-world execution

[12:26] Dan answers whether he is confident he will buy a storage facility

[14:00] Why Dan did not fail, the season just ended, and those are different things

[14:25] Alex marks ten years of podcasting and announces a short pause before season three

[16:44] What season three will look like and the closing call to action

Who This Episode Is For:

New investors working toward their first self-storage facility
Anyone struggling with confidence, second-guessing, or analysis paralysis in underwriting
Investors who feel like they are trying to figure this out alone
People who have lost momentum and want to rebuild it
Action takers who need permission to let progress be messy and imperfect
Listeners who have followed Dan's journey from episode one

Why You Should Listen:

This finale is less about a transaction and more about transformation. Over 40 episodes, Dan went from never having underwritten a real deal to running numbers that hold up against seasoned brokers and experienced storage owners. The facility has not closed yet, but the person who will close it has already been built.

The core lesson Alex keeps returning to is that confidence follows action, not the other way around. You do not wait until you feel ready to make offers and have hard conversations. You make the offers and have the conversations, and the confidence shows up because of the reps. Relationships, consistency, and a refusal to quit do the rest.

If you have been waiting for the perfect moment or the perfect deal, this episode is a reminder that the road to ownership zigs and zags. Messy progress still counts. The only real failure is stopping.

In this episode, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel sit down for one of the most honest conversations of the entire season. With Season 2 winding down and Dan still working toward his first storage deal, Alex asks the question neither of them planned to face publicly: what does it feel like to put yourself out there for 38 episodes and not yet cross the finish line? Dan's answer — "I feel like a fool" — stops the conversation cold. What follows is a raw, unscripted look at managing progress versus expectations, the ebbs and flows of pursuing a big goal, and what it really means to keep going when the timeline doesn't go the way you planned.

This is not a recap of mistakes. It's a conversation about identity, resilience, and what two years of grinding in public actually builds in a person. Dan reflects on the highs of nearly going under contract multiple times, the halt that came with a new baby, and the mindset shift that changed how he carries the weight of his journey. If you've ever felt behind, embarrassed by your timeline, or afraid to fail in front of people — this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

You'll Learn How To:

Separate "I didn't hit my goal" from "I didn't make progress" — and why the difference changes everything
Manage the emotional ebbs and flows that come with pursuing a long-term investing goal
Drop the weight of missed follow-ups and hit the reset button without losing momentum you've already built
Stop worrying what other people think about your timeline and start focusing on the right next step
Use the wisdom of the 20s/40s/60s framework to free yourself from caring about other people's opinions
Build a strong enough "why" to keep moving forward when results take longer than expected
Take massive imperfect action even when you feel like you're too far behind to catch up

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:00] Introduction

[1:10] What if you do everything right and still don't hit the goal?

[1:42] Progress vs. expectations — why these are not the same thing

[2:02] Dan's idea: let's talk about the ebbs and flows that nobody else puts on camera

[2:26] Has success been linear? Dan's honest answer after 38 episodes

[3:20] The highs — nearly under contract multiple times, and what future-casting costs you when a deal falls through

[4:31] How a new baby and the holidays brought momentum to a near-complete halt

[5:00] What Dan learned about rebuilding: it doesn't matter where you start, just start somewhere

[5:33] "Put the weight down" — Alex on why carrying the guilt of missed follow-ups makes it impossible to move

[6:25] The hardest question of the episode: knowing what you know now, would you have started anyway?

[7:29] Dan's answer — and the conviction behind it

[7:58] Why the community made the journey worth it regardless of the timeline

[8:26] Why Alex recommended the movie Rudy — and what stories of struggle do for your mindset

[10:05] The 20s/40s/60s framework: when you finally realize nobody was thinking about you anyway

[11:29] Dan's gut-punch response when Alex said Season 2 was winding down: "I feel like a fool"

[12:16] Why public failure hits differently than private failure

[13:41] A week later — does Dan still feel that way?

[14:07] Why "nobody's thinking about you" is the most freeing thing an entrepreneur can internalize

[15:17] Why putting yourself out there and falling short earns more respect than never trying

[16:06] The man in the arena — the person people cheer for is the one willing to fight

[16:34] The goal was never just to close a deal — it was to close the right one

[17:30] How much of "I feel like a fool" was really about what other people think?

[18:00] What Dan would tell someone afraid to put themselves out there in case they fail

[18:59] What Dan is most proud of after 38 episodes

[19:38] Why seeing others in the community close deals inspires rather than discourages him

[20:10] Episode 40 is the Season 2 finale — and Dan is coming back when he closes his first deal

[21:03] The call to action: take massive imperfect action, have a big why, surround yourself with the right people

[21:36] A preview of what Season 3 will look like

Who This Episode Is For:

Aspiring storage investors who feel behind on their timeline and are starting to wonder if it's worth it
Anyone who has put themselves out there publicly — on a podcast, in a community, or in front of others — and hasn't yet hit the goal
Entrepreneurs struggling with the gap between the progress they've made and the expectations they set at the start
People who are afraid to fail in front of others and have been using that fear as a reason to stay on the sideline
Anyone who needs a reminder that the journey itself builds something that the destination alone never could
Investors who have a big why but need help keeping it front of mind when the road gets longer than expected

Why You Should Listen:

Season 2 of Storage Wins was built on a simple premise: follow Dan Wentzel in real time as he pursues his first self-storage deal. The plan was to document the win. What happened instead was something more valuable — a two-year record of what it actually looks like to pursue a hard goal with no guarantees and no shortcuts. This episode is the honest accounting of that journey, and it's one of the most important conversations of the entire season.

What makes it land is Dan's willingness to say out loud what most people only feel privately. "I feel like a fool." That moment is the heart of this episode — and Alex's response, the 20s/40s/60s framework, the man in the arena, the distinction between missing a goal and failing to make progress — gives you the mindset tools to reframe your own journey in a way that actually helps you keep going.

If you've been at this for longer than you expected and you're starting to wonder whether the gap between where you are and where you thought you'd be by now means something has gone wrong — this episode is your answer. Nothing has gone wrong. The timeline is the journey. And the version of yourself you build on the way to the first deal is the asset that makes everything else possible.

In this episode, Alex Pardo brings back returning guest and Storage Wins fan-favorite Dan Wentzel for an honest, unfiltered look at what two years of grinding toward his first self-storage deal has actually taught him. With lines in the water, offers made, and hard-won perspective to share, Dan sits down to answer the question every aspiring storage investor eventually has to face: if you could go back to day one with everything you know now, what would you do differently?

This is not a highlight reel. It's a raw breakdown of the mistakes that slowed Dan down (chief among them, analysis paralysis) and the mindset shifts that have him closer than ever to closing his first storage facility. If you've been studying, underwriting, and preparing but still haven't made your move, this episode is the push you've been waiting for.

You'll Learn How To:

Break the analysis paralysis cycle that's keeping you from making offers on storage facilities
Underwrite a self-storage deal with confidence in 30 minutes or less
Use the LMAO Method (List, Meaningful Conversations, Analyze, Offers) to structure your entire acquisition process
Make verbal offers without waiting for every detail to be perfect
Build real momentum through cold calls with storage owners, even when you don't feel ready
Stop falling into the "I should be further along" trap and start taking radical ownership of your journey
Take massive imperfect action and collect tiny wins that compound over time

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:00] Dan delivers the episode's thesis before the intro even starts: perfect action doesn't exist, and waiting for it is the only thing that guarantees you stay stuck

[0:33] Alex sets up the central question: if Dan kept all his experience but woke up tomorrow at day one, what would change?

[1:01] Why hindsight and perspective are the two assets Dan has now that no spreadsheet could have given him

[1:32] Alex runs the "Men in Black" scenario: erasing two years but keeping every lesson, and what it reveals about where Dan actually is

[2:18] Alex reveals on-air that Dan has built a loyal fan base of Storage Wins listeners following his journey throughout season two

[2:55] Dan's honest answer to what took longer than it should have: closing a deal, and why he still knows it's coming

[3:50] Alex breaks down the "I should be further along" trap and why every entrepreneur who falls into it guarantees they stay exactly where they are

[4:34] Dan takes full accountability for his timeline, no blame, no excuses, and explains what that shift in ownership has unlocked

[5:25] Dan names his biggest mistake: analysis paralysis, and walks through the spreadsheet rabbit hole that had him second-guessing a deal he'd already underwritten correctly from day one

[7:16] The gut-punch moment: two experienced mentors reviewed Dan's deal in 30 minutes and landed on the exact same number he'd spent weeks agonizing over

[9:05] Alex's boat analogy: analysis paralysis is a current pulling you out to sea, and taking action shifts the current and brings you to shore

[11:14] The flip side: what activities actually built momentum for Dan, and why doing more of what works is just simple math

[11:39] What today's Dan would tell day-one Dan: don't overthink it, pick up the phone, and learn from every call you make

[13:35] Alex reveals the LMAO Method (List, Meaningful Conversations, Analyze, Offers) and shows how Dan's own three-step answer was the framework all along

[15:24] Dan's final word on massive imperfect action: collect tiny wins, make verbal offers, move to the next owner, and do it again

Who This Episode Is For:

Aspiring storage investors who keep underwriting deals but haven't submitted an offer yet
People who freeze up at the thought of cold-calling storage facility owners
Anyone who has been told to "just make offers" but doesn't know where to start
Investors tying their self-worth to whether a deal closes on a specific timeline
Entrepreneurs who know the technical side of self-storage but keep getting stuck in their own heads
Anyone who has consumed all the content and just needs someone to tell them to pick up the phone

Why You Should Listen:

Season two of Storage Wins was supposed to end with Dan closing his first self-storage deal. And while that close is still coming (and both Alex and Dan know it), this episode makes the case that the most important thing Dan built over 38 episodes wasn't a portfolio. It was a version of himself capable of building one. Two years ago, the thought of calling a storage owner cold terrified him. Today, he can underwrite a facility, have a meaningful conversation with a seller, and submit an offer without breaking a sweat. That's not a small thing.

What makes this conversation hit differently is the specificity of the mistakes. Dan doesn't give you vague lessons about "staying consistent." He walks you through the exact deal he over-analyzed: the spreadsheets, the second-guessing, the mentors who looked at it for 30 minutes and landed on the same number he'd spent weeks circling. That's the kind of honesty you can actually use. And when Alex's boat analogy lands, the current of analysis paralysis pulling you out to sea versus the current of action bringing you to shore, you'll feel it.

If you've been sitting on a deal, a call, or even just the decision to get started, this episode gives you no more runway to hide behind. The LMO Method is simple. The Owner's Code is downloadable below. The blue ocean of 50,000-plus storage facilities is real. The only thing left is the action, and Dan's story is proof that imperfect action taken consistently will get you there.

In this episode, Alex Pardo sits down with his longtime co-host and student Dan Wenzel for a season two wind-down conversation centered on the one thing no underwriting spreadsheet can measure: mindset. After 37 episodes of documenting Dan's journey into self storage investing, Alex and Dan pull back the curtain on the real growth that's happened, from near-paralysis on cold calls to confident conversations with storage owners across the country.

This episode is a raw and honest look at how confidence is built through repetition, collaboration, and showing up even when you don't feel ready. If you've ever let fear, self-doubt, or the need for a perfect outcome keep you from taking action in your storage investing journey, this one is for you.

You'll Learn How To:

Build real confidence through consistent reps rather than waiting for a result to validate you
Stop letting fear of rejection keep you from picking up the phone and calling storage owners
Understand why collaboration with other investors accelerates growth faster than solo study
Develop a "be, do, have" identity framework before the results show up
Reframe a fumbled call or missed deal as a rep, not a failure
Leverage broker relationships over time to sharpen your underwriting instincts
Recognize the internal signals (nervousness, butterflies) that tell you to lean in, not back off

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:56] Alex opens the episode with the real obstacle holding most investors back from their first storage facility

[1:20] Why mindset, confidence, and identity are the through-line of the entire season two journey

[2:34] Alex breaks down the "be, do, have" framework and why most people have it backwards

[3:26] Dan reflects on his biggest growth from episode one to episode 37

[4:32] How underwriting reps with other Storage Winners built Dan's confidence from the inside out

[5:36] Was there a single light-bulb moment or was confidence an evolution? Dan answers directly

[6:08] How an open broker relationship gave Dan a live benchmark to validate his own offers

[7:24] Alex shares his ten-year podcasting anniversary and what a decade of reps actually produces

[9:14] Why collaboration and a mastermind mentality separate investors who grow from those who stagnate

[10:03] What no book or YouTube video can teach you: reading the human being behind the storage facility

[13:48] What Dan can confidently do today that would have paralyzed him a year ago

[16:34] Alex's personal story about a big opportunity that gave him butterflies, and what his wife said that snapped him back

[18:17] Why not closing a deal by the end of the season doesn't define success or identity

[20:11] Alex's closing challenge and how to connect with him for your first storage discovery call

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors who keep learning but haven't made their first offer yet
People who freeze up at the idea of cold-calling storage owners
Anyone tying their self-worth to whether a deal closes
New and mid-stage storage investors who feel like they're "just going through the motions"
Entrepreneurs who understand the technical side but struggle with the mental side
Anyone who has consumed a lot of content and needs a push to take action instead

Why You Should Listen:

Season two of Storage Wins was supposed to be about buying a storage facility. And while that goal is still within reach, this episode makes the case that the most important thing Dan built over 37 episodes wasn't a portfolio. It was a version of himself capable of building one.

Alex and Dan don't sugarcoat it. Confidence isn't something you feel before you start. It's something you earn through repetitions, through calls that go awkward, through underwriting deals alongside people who are a few steps ahead of you, and through showing up to record a podcast even on the weeks when the journey felt heavy. The "be, do, have" framework Alex references early in the episode is the spine of this conversation: you have to become the person first. The results follow.

What makes this episode worth your time, whether you're brand new or already a few facilities in, is the reminder that growth is non-linear and often invisible until you look back. Dan couldn't have articulated his own evolution in episode one. But 37 episodes later, he can talk to any storage owner like the back of his hand. That's not luck. That's what happens when you put the reps in and refuse to quit.

In this solo episode, host Alex Pardo gives a candid update on Dan's journey to buy his first self-storage facility — a deal that had strong market demographics, favorable bank financing, and real value-add upside, until one buried spreadsheet assumption changed everything. This episode is a real-world lesson in self-storage underwriting, revenue ramp-up timelines, and what it actually costs to miss a detail in your deal filter.

If you're working toward your first storage deal and want to understand how to stress-test your numbers before it's too late, this episode will save you from making the same costly mistake Dan made.

You'll Learn How To:

Understand why storage revenue doesn't move like a light switch after acquisition
Identify the ramp-up period tab in your deal filter and how to use it correctly
Calculate how many net move-ins per month is realistic for your market
Stress-test your debt service coverage ratio before presenting a deal to a bank
Negotiate from a shoulder-to-shoulder position with sellers when deals need restructuring
Recognize when a deal that looks good on paper is missing a critical timeline assumption
Surround yourself with a community that can catch what your spreadsheet can't

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:00] Dan's deal looked solid until one buried assumption flipped everything

[0:32] Alex introduces Season 2 and Dan's journey from unemployed to first-time storage buyer

[1:09] Why Dan wasn't excited when he finally got under contract — and what that reveals

[1:45] Why celebrating each step matters even when you've been burned before

[2:06] The market fundamentals Dan liked: demographics, income, population growth

[2:31] The bank terms that made the deal attractive — 5.29% fixed for 5 years or 5.99% for 10

[3:05] A cautionary tale: a well-known investor who lost $15 million when rates adjusted on a $70M multifamily deal

[4:13] Why Alex jumped on an impromptu Zoom to review Dan's underwriting spreadsheet

[4:33] How Storage Wins community member Casey McKillop saved $100,000 on his first offer

[6:02] The specific tab Dan wasn't reading correctly — net move-ins and the ramp-up period

[7:07] The real issue: Dan assumed revenue would jump from $170K to $210K overnight

[7:51] It would take Dan 10 months to reach profitability — and he wasn't prepared to fund it

[8:09] The bank pulled out after reviewing the deal more closely

[8:59] How to explain debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) to sellers and why 1.25–1.3 matters

[10:14] The lesson: growth comes from adversity, and Dan won't make this mistake again

Who This Episode Is For:

First-time storage investors preparing to make their first offer
Investors who have been under contract before and had deals fall through
Anyone underwriting a value-add storage deal and projecting a quick revenue bump
Buyers who haven't stress-tested their debt service coverage ratio
Entrepreneurs who know the numbers but need a second set of eyes on their assumptions
Storage investors trying to understand how ramp-up timelines affect deal viability

Why You Should Listen:

Dan's deal had everything going for it on the surface — strong demographics, committed bank financing, and a clear path to raising rents. But one overlooked tab in the deal filter spreadsheet showed that revenue wouldn't jump overnight. It would take ten months to reach profitability, and Dan hadn't budgeted for that gap. That single assumption blew up the DSCR, the bank walked, and a deal that looked ready to close came apart fast.

This episode isn't about what went wrong. It's about what you can learn before it happens to you. Alex walks through the exact mistake — projecting revenue as a light switch rather than a ramp — and explains why having a community to stress-test your deal before you go under contract is worth more than almost anything else in this business.

The most expensive education is experience. But it doesn't have to be yours. Dan learned this lesson so you don't have to.

In this episode, Alex Pardo continues the raw, unfiltered coaching series with Storage Wins community member Dan, who is now under contract on a 28,000 square foot self-storage facility priced at $2.625 million. After the previous conversation surfaced a critical gap in Dan's deal analysis — specifically that revenue doesn't jump to projected levels overnight but ramps slowly over months — this episode picks up with Dan processing some mixed emotions and working through the real question every first-time storage investor eventually has to answer: is the juice worth the squeeze?

Alex walks Dan through how to evaluate that question honestly, without just telling him what to do. They talk about what qualifies as a base hit versus a home run on a first deal, how to look at the deal through the conservative, likely, and best-case lenses without letting optimism drive the offer, and what it actually means to responsibly bring equity partners into a deal you still believe in. It's one of the most practical, unscripted conversations the show has aired — and if you're at a similar inflection point in your own storage journey, this one was made for you.

You'll Learn How To:

Determine whether a deal is a true base hit or just a deal you're forcing because you're hungry to close
Evaluate a storage deal through conservative, likely, and best-case revenue scenarios without getting burned by optimism
Understand why revenue ramp-up is a slow burn — not a light switch — and how to model it correctly
Structure equity partner terms that are competitive with what active investors in the storage space are actually looking for
Weigh the real value of getting into your first deal even when the returns aren't exceptional
Recognize the orange flags in a deal's financing structure before they become red flags at closing
Build the confidence and clarity needed to pull the trigger — or walk away — with a clear, defensible reason

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[0:00] Alex previews the series and what Dan missed in the prior deal analysis — the revenue ramp-up problem

[0:47] The 28,000 sq ft deal under contract: $2.625M purchase price and the cash flow math that surfaced some hard questions

[2:32] Dan shares his mixed emotions after the last call — and Alex explains why they're recording it anyway

[3:18] Dan's framing: the value of getting into a first deal, even knowing he'll give up 40% equity and an 8% preferred return

[4:33] What Scott Speer and other coaches told Dan about what investors are actually looking for right now

[5:31] Running the numbers: 9–11% cash on cash return over five years and a 17–18% annualized return — and why it's still short of the 12–15% benchmark

[6:27] Alex's philosophy on first deals: it doesn't have to be a home run, but it does have to be a base hit with low risk

[8:25] What Alex learned from his own early deals — buying in markets he wouldn't touch today — and the lesson about operations vs. market fundamentals

[9:35] How to think about the juice-worth-the-squeeze question based on your season of life, your goals, and your risk profile

[10:42] Why hunger to close a deal is not enough justification — and what separates discipline from paralysis

[11:17] Dan makes the case for the facility: competitors with much higher rates and occupancy above 90% suggest meaningful room to push rates

[13:12] Running the likely scenario vs. conservative: how higher confidence in the market changes the deal math

[15:17] The revenue light-switch analogy — and why missing this detail is one of the most common first-deal mistakes

[16:52] Potential paths forward: renegotiating terms with the seller, adjusting interest rate assumptions, or restructuring the equity split

[19:19] Alex's reminder: always determine your exit before you enter — and what that means for this deal specifically

[19:42] Alex wraps the series so far and challenges listeners following Dan's journey to keep showing up with the same persistence

Who This Episode Is For:

First-time storage investors who are under contract or close to it and second-guessing the numbers
Investors who know they want to do a deal but aren't sure where to draw the line on acceptable returns
Anyone who has ever confused being hungry to close with being ready to close
Students of the Storage Wins community looking for a real-time, unscripted deal review
Operators who want to understand how to model revenue ramp-up correctly before making an offer
Investors considering bringing on equity partners and not sure what terms are realistic right now

Why You Should Listen:

Most podcasts show you what winning looks like. This episode shows you what the messy middle looks like — the moment after you've done all the right things, run your analysis, gotten the deal under contract, and then discovered there was one number you weren't modeling correctly. That's not a failure. That's the job. And how you respond to that moment is what separates investors who close deals from investors who talk about deals.

Alex doesn't hand Dan the answer here. He helps him build the framework to find it himself. What's the conservative case? What's the likely case? What does the market data actually support? What would a responsible equity partner need to see? Those questions matter a lot more than any single deal outcome — because the investor who can answer them clearly will keep finding deals long after this one is resolved.

If you're in a similar moment right now — wrestling with whether a deal clears the bar or not — the framework Alex lays out in this conversation is one you can apply immediately to whatever is sitting in your pipeline.

In this episode, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan to dig into the financial and strategic reality of his 28,000-square-foot storage facility under contract for $2.625M. This is part 3 of a multi-part series, and the conversation gets raw and unfiltered as they work through the deal's tightest challenge: Dan's initial miss on revenue ramp timing and how it impacts his cash flow projections and partnership structures.

Alex uses this live deal walkthrough to unpack the critical thinking required before committing capital and equity to a first storage facility. It's messy, it's real, and it's exactly how serious operators need to evaluate opportunities before pulling the trigger.

You'll Learn How To:

Understand revenue ramp dynamics and why projections don't happen overnight
Evaluate whether a deal is worth equity and capital when returns are below market expectations
Structure deals with debt and equity partners to manage cash flow gaps
Identify when an interest rate or term change becomes a caution flag in a deal
Design a facility exit strategy before you sign the purchase agreement
Run conservative, likely, and best-case scenarios without falling into best-case bias
Know the difference between doing a deal for experience and doing the right deal for returns

What You'll Learn in This Episode

[00:00] Alex and Dan discuss the three-part series on Dan's 28K sq ft facility deal under contract

[01:10] The critical oversight: revenue doesn't jump immediately when you raise rates, it ramps slowly

[02:00] How a 2-3 person per month net move-in creates negative cash flow for 5–10 months

[03:29] Dan's mixed emotions: value of the first deal vs. whether the juice is worth the squeeze

[04:01] Equity structure options: 40% equity with 8% preferred return vs. 12% interest-only with smaller equity

[05:41] Projected returns: 9–11% cash-on-cash over five years, annualized 17–18% (below market expectations)

[06:37] Alex's philosophy: first deal doesn't need to be a home run, but it has to be a base hit with low risk

[08:05] Alex's cautionary tale: his early deals in certain markets he wouldn't repeat, but bar was lower because he was learning

[09:24] The decision framework: enough due diligence to confidently move forward or walk away with reason

[14:15] Where community homework and market analysis become invaluable in deal evaluation

[16:03] Revenue ramp isn't a light switch: it's a slow burn that models must account for with conservative assumptions

[16:49] Conservative, likely, and best-case scenarios: don't make offers expecting everything goes right

[17:02] Going back to the seller after due diligence to renegotiate price, terms, or structure

[17:25] Interest rate sensitivity: if 70–80 basis points breaks the deal, it's a yellow flag

[18:34] Partnership scenarios: 40% equity vs. 20–30% equity depending on your time and value contribution

[19:15] Exit strategy before entry: you determine how you exit, and rarely do you buy and operate forever

Who This Episode Is For:

First-time storage investors evaluating their first deal and unsure if the numbers work
Operators with a property under contract trying to decide between partnerships, debt, or walking
Investors who've been analyzing deals but haven't pulled the trigger and need a reality check
Deal makers questioning whether their first facility has to be a grand slam or just a win
Real estate operators learning the difference between deal experience and deal returns
Anyone struggling with confidence on deal evaluation, market selection, or partnership structures

Why You Should Listen:

This episode does something most storage content doesn't: it shows you the real conversation a smart operator has when a deal is tight, promising, but not yet perfect. Alex doesn't tell Dan "do it" or "don't do it." Instead, he walks him through the thinking process—how to weigh risk, returns, equity dilution, and the value of your first facility against the need to protect your capital and time.

The key insight here is revenue ramp. It's the single detail that shifted Dan's deal from "looks good" to "needs more work." In self-storage, you don't buy a 60% occupied facility at a certain price, make some operational improvements, and suddenly it's 90% occupied next month. It takes time. Every month you're adding a few units, pushing rates on the existing base, and slowly building to your pro forma. If your financing doesn't account for that reality, your deal can go negative cash flow for longer than your capital can sustain.

The broader lesson is this: your first storage deal should absolutely get you on base. It should teach you how to find, evaluate, underwrite, and operate a self-storage facility. But it shouldn't be a financially reckless trade just to check the box. Do the first one right, and you'll be confident to repeat it faster. Do the first one wrong, and you might be out capital, confidence, and momentum.

Doing your first storage facility is a big decision, and the temptation to move fast is real. But as Alex reminds Dan, there's no rush. You're not trying to do a deal for the sake of doing a deal. You're trying to do the right deal at the right time with returns that actually work. If you're ready to evaluate your first storage opportunity with clarity and confidence, head over to storagwins.com/call to schedule a free discovery call with Alex and explore whether self-storage is the right next move for you. The only thing standing between you and your goals is action.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo welcomes back Dan Wentzel with a major announcement: after months of grinding through deals, cold calls, and follow-ups, Dan is officially under contract on a $2.625 million self-storage facility that has 234 units and 28,000 square feet in a growing market with strong demographics.

What makes this milestone so powerful isn't just the deal itself — it's the journey that led to it. Dan cold called this owner four years ago, followed up for over a year, sent somewhere between six and twelve offers, and refused to quit even when the seller went to a broker and the deal almost died twice. This is a masterclass in what persistence actually looks like in the real world of self-storage investing.

The conversation dives deep into how a single phone call to a local bank, uncovering better lending terms than anything previously available, completely changed what Dan could offer and finally got the deal done. It's a reminder that creative problem-solving and consistent action can unlock opportunities that feel out of reach.

Alex and Dan also work through the deal's financials in real time, breaking down back-of-napkin underwriting: starting with $275,000 in current revenue, applying a 35% expense ratio to arrive at a $178,750 NOI, and exploring what a conservative 20% rent increase could do (pushing projected NOI to over $217,000). With rates sitting 30–40% below market and only two competitors in the area (one of which appears to be at capacity), the upside is real.

The episode closes with a cliffhanger. The numbers are promising, but the next episode will tackle how to structure the capital stack: debt vs. equity, investor returns, and whether this deal can fully support itself.

This is one of the most honest and instructive episodes in the series, proof that the deal of your life can be the one you almost walked away from.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

Push through analysis paralysis and doubt by staying in motion even when results aren't showing yet
Follow up with sellers over months and years without burning the relationship
Use simple back-of-napkin math to quickly evaluate any self-storage deal
Apply an expense ratio to calculate NOI and interpret cap rates in context • Identify value-add opportunities from below-market rents and unsophisticated operations
Use bank financing creatively to increase your offer and structure a better deal
Recognize what makes a market worth pursuing: population growth, median income, and limited competition
Build a simple, sustainable follow-up system that doesn't require an expensive CRM

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan Wentzel to unpack the dramatic shift that's taken place over the last several episodes. After months of overthinking, hesitation, and struggling with analysis paralysis, Dan is now operating from a completely different place: confidence built through reps, action, and real-world experience.

What makes this conversation powerful is that the breakthrough didn't come from one magical strategy or perfect deal. It came from volume, repetition, relationships, and exposure to real offers in the marketplace.

As Dan shares updates on an off-market self-storage opportunity he's been negotiating for months, the conversation reveals how seeing other buyers' offers, collaborating with the Storage Wins community, and repeatedly underwriting deals helped him realize something important: most experienced investors arrive at similar conclusions.

That realization changed everything.

The episode also dives into one of the most important principles in entrepreneurship and investing: progress creates confidence. Alex explains how momentum compounds through action—and how hesitation, overthinking, and fear create the exact opposite cycle.

Along the way, Alex shares a personal story about nearly losing his first storage deal because he spent too much time trying to perfect contracts and eliminate uncertainty before moving forward. It becomes a powerful lesson in why confidence is built through action—not endless preparation.

The conversation closes with a real-world financing breakthrough as Dan uncovers a bank financing option that completely changes the structure of a $3 million seller-financed deal and potentially removes one of the biggest obstacles holding the deal back.

This episode is a masterclass in momentum, confidence, relationships, and learning how to trust yourself enough to move forward before everything feels certain.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

• Build confidence through reps, action, and real-world experience • Stop overthinking and start creating momentum through progress • Leverage relationships and community to strengthen decision-making • Understand how experienced investors structure creative offers • Balance asking the right questions without overcomplicating deals • Avoid losing opportunities by chasing perfection • Use bank financing creatively to solve seller financing obstacles • Detach from outcomes and focus on consistent execution

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most people think confidence comes before action.

If episode thirty was about identifying analysis paralysis as the bottleneck, episode thirty-one is about the breakthrough that happens when you finally stop chasing certainty and start trusting yourself.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo continues coaching Dan Wentzel through one of the biggest mindset shifts of the entire journey so far. After spending months overanalyzing deals and trying to craft the "perfect" offer, Dan reveals a major breakthrough: he recently underwrote a deal in just one hour—and for the first time, felt confident enough to move forward without needing additional validation.

That realization sparks a deeper conversation about what was really happening beneath the surface all along.

As Alex breaks it down, the issue was never about spreadsheets, underwriting skills, or lack of knowledge. The real problem was the need for certainty. By spending excessive time analyzing deals, Dan was unintentionally protecting himself from the discomfort of taking the next step—making offers, facing uncertainty, and risking failure.

The conversation dives into the hidden ways investors self-sabotage, how perfectionism quietly destroys momentum, and why "the perfect offer" simply does not exist. Alex also explains how confidence compounds over time, and why trusting yourself becomes one of the most important skills in real estate investing.

What makes this episode especially powerful is the visible shift in Dan's energy and confidence throughout the conversation. For the first time in the journey, the breakthrough feels real—not because a deal closed, but because the mindset finally changed.

This episode is a masterclass in confidence, imperfect action, and learning how to move forward before you feel 100% certain.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

• Break free from analysis paralysis and perfectionism • Reduce the need for certainty before taking action • Build confidence through repetition and imperfect action • Identify hidden forms of self-sabotage during the deal process • Trust your underwriting skills without needing constant validation • Move from overthinking into momentum and execution • Focus on progress instead of crafting the "perfect" offer

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[0:04] Why the "perfect offer" does not exist [0:37] The real thing holding most investors back: certainty [1:22] Recap of Dan's journey through highs, lows, and mindset challenges [1:46] The previous breakthrough: reducing underwriting time [2:27] Dan reveals he recently underwrote a deal in just one hour [3:15] The key shift: feeling confident without needing more validation [4:12] Why certainty becomes a trap for investors [5:07] The danger of trying to craft the perfect offer [6:19] Perfectionism as a hidden form of self-sabotage [7:05] Why staying in spreadsheets feels "safe" emotionally [7:39] The confidence bank account analogy [8:06] What helped Dan reduce underwriting time from 4 hours to 1 [8:38] Learning confidence through comparing multiple buyer offers [9:20] Discovering that most investors arrive at similar conclusions [9:47] "Protect your confidence" as the entrepreneur's #1 responsibility [10:31] How overanalyzing creates a cycle of fear and doubt [11:25] The power of reclaiming 15 extra hours per week [12:07] Why coaching works when you remain coachable [13:03] Trusting yourself while still leveraging mentors and community [13:47] Why deal flow—not spreadsheets—is the real priority [14:12] The advantage of becoming great at finding opportunities [14:53] The big takeaway: enough confidence is enough to act [15:40] Alex identifies the real breakthrough: eliminating self-sabotage [16:14] Why Dan's energy and confidence finally feel different

⸻

Who This Episode Is For:

• Investors stuck in analysis paralysis or overthinking • Listeners who struggle with confidence before making offers • Anyone trying to overcome perfectionism in business • Entrepreneurs who constantly seek more certainty before acting • People pursuing their first self-storage facility • Investors who feel stuck despite having knowledge and skills

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most investors think they need more information before taking action.

In reality, they usually need more confidence.

This episode reveals how the need for certainty quietly keeps investors stuck in endless analysis, delays momentum, and creates hidden self-sabotage. More importantly, it shows how confidence is built—not by knowing everything, but by trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

If you've ever felt trapped in overthinking, waiting for the "perfect" offer, or needing complete certainty before moving forward, this conversation will help you break that cycle and finally start building momentum.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo continues coaching Dan Wentzel through the realities of trying to buy a first storage facility with limited time and limited bandwidth. After identifying underwriting as the primary bottleneck in the previous episode, the conversation now shifts into a deeper breakdown of why it's happening—and how to fix it.

Dan reveals that he's spending four to six hours analyzing individual deals before feeling comfortable enough to make an offer. That revelation immediately sparks a major coaching moment.

Alex challenges the entire approach.

Instead of trying to craft the "perfect" offer with complete certainty, Alex explains why successful investors focus on speed, volume, and confidence over perfection. By walking through what information is actually necessary to evaluate a storage deal, they uncover a critical truth: you often need far less information than you think to make a strong offer.

The conversation also explores the psychology behind analysis paralysis—how fear of being wrong, lack of confidence, and the desire to avoid mistakes can quietly destroy momentum and keep investors stuck in endless underwriting loops.

As Alex breaks down real-world examples from his own investing experience, including taking a $100,000 lower offer because of confidence in the buyer, the bigger lesson becomes clear: relationships, certainty, and execution matter far more than perfect spreadsheets.

This episode is a masterclass in simplifying underwriting, increasing deal volume, and understanding that progress comes from taking more shots—not from endlessly polishing the same one.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

• Reduce analysis paralysis when underwriting storage deals • Identify the minimum information needed to make an offer • Increase deal volume by simplifying your underwriting process • Focus on speed and momentum instead of perfection • Understand why relationships and confidence impact deal flow • Separate "good enough" underwriting from overanalyzing • Prioritize progress and activity over perfect spreadsheets

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[0:13] Why Alex accepted a $100K lower offer on one of his storage facilities [1:22] Recap of the Season 2 journey and recent reset conversation [2:13] Dan's current role within the four-person Storage Wins team [3:04] Identifying underwriting as the biggest bottleneck [4:31] The shocking truth: spending 4–6 hours analyzing one deal [5:23] Why overanalyzing destroys momentum and volume [6:38] The reality of only analyzing 1–2 deals per week [7:40] Why low deal volume guarantees slow progress [8:00] The two possible problems: capacity or overthinking [9:28] Why successful investors focus on volume and repetitions [10:39] Alex calls out the real issue: analysis paralysis [11:32] Breaking down the minimum viable information needed for underwriting [12:34] Unit mix, rental rates, and basic revenue assumptions [13:56] Why you can still make strong offers with limited information [15:04] Simple market analysis without overcomplicating the process [16:23] The revelation: a rough offer could be built in 10–15 minutes [18:18] Why one hour should be the absolute maximum for underwriting [18:56] Using quick deal filters before deep dives [20:00] Dan's concern: "I don't just want to be in range—I want to win the deal" [20:48] Why confidence and relationships matter more than being the highest offer [22:07] Avoiding overpaying based on pro forma assumptions [23:43] The danger of perfectionism in underwriting [24:33] Why spending four hours on a deal is unsustainable [26:58] Dan's biggest takeaway: work in the business, not on the business [28:26] The paradigm shift around imperfect action and momentum [29:14] Why more offers create more opportunities and better results

⸻

Who This Episode Is For:

• Investors stuck in analysis paralysis when evaluating deals • Listeners spending too much time underwriting opportunities • Anyone struggling to make offers confidently • Entrepreneurs who overthink instead of taking action • Investors trying to maximize limited time and bandwidth • People pursuing their first self-storage deal

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most investors don't lose deals because they lack knowledge.

They lose because they spend too much time trying to be perfect.

This episode shows how overanalyzing quietly kills momentum, limits deal flow, and creates unnecessary bottlenecks. More importantly, it teaches you how to simplify your underwriting process, focus on what actually matters, and increase the number of opportunities you're putting yourself in front of.

If you've ever felt stuck trying to "fully understand" every deal before taking action, this conversation will help you move faster, make better decisions, and finally start building real momentum.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan Wentzel after a long pause in the journey. Over the last several months, Dan's storage business has slowed dramatically due to life demands, limited time, family responsibilities, and the challenge of trying to balance business-building with being present at home.

But instead of avoiding the conversation, Alex leans directly into it.

What unfolds is one of the most transparent and honest coaching conversations of the entire series. Together, they unpack the emotional weight that comes with feeling stuck, comparing yourself to others, losing momentum, and questioning whether progress is even happening.

As the conversation progresses, Alex identifies a major issue that many new investors struggle with: focusing on the wrong things at the wrong time. Instead of spending valuable time building systems, refining processes, or worrying about operations, Alex challenges Dan to simplify everything down to one objective—finding deals.

The message becomes crystal clear: if you're trying to buy your first storage facility, your time should almost entirely be spent in the deal discovery phase. Conversations, underwriting, analyzing opportunities, and making offers matter far more than perfect systems, future operations, or hypothetical scenarios.

The episode also dives into the realities of partnerships, time constraints, and self-belief. Despite setbacks and slower-than-expected progress, Alex reinforces an important truth: the journey only fails if you quit.

This episode is a powerful reminder that progress often comes from simplifying, recommitting, and focusing relentlessly on what actually moves the needle.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

• Simplify your focus when momentum stalls out • Prioritize revenue-generating activities over unnecessary systems • Avoid getting distracted by operations before you own a deal • Identify the difference between working in the business vs on the business • Maximize limited time by focusing on high-impact actions • Navigate partnerships and clearly define roles within a team • Rebuild confidence and momentum during difficult seasons

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[0:15] Why systems and processes matter—but timing matters more [1:37] Feeling stalled out, discouraged, and low on momentum [2:44] The emotional impact of comparison and adversity [3:14] Why the Storage Wins journey temporarily paused [4:10] Showing up even when life feels chaotic and difficult [5:17] The parallels between business setbacks and getting "tapped out" in jiu-jitsu [6:09] Why transparency and vulnerability matter during difficult seasons [6:27] Dan's first win: simply continuing to show up [7:01] Working with three other Storage Wins members to pursue deals [8:09] Challenges and opportunities of four-person partnerships [9:37] Identifying the real problem behind "not enough time" [10:15] The importance of planning your days and weeks intentionally [11:21] Peeling back the layers to uncover the root challenge [12:16] How systems and CRMs became a distraction from actual deal flow [14:15] The difference between working in the business vs on the business [16:01] Why limited time must be spent on activities that move the needle [17:12] Alex's frustration with focusing on operations too early [18:32] Why funding and operations should NOT be your current focus [19:38] Simplifying the business down to finding deals and making offers [20:30] Why underwriting should not become a bottleneck [21:18] Defining roles and responsibilities within the team [22:21] Identifying the true bottleneck: lack of underwriting volume [23:11] The only way this journey fails is if you quit [24:03] Rebuilding confidence and recommitting to the goal

Who This Episode Is For:

• Investors who feel stalled out or discouraged in their journey • Listeners struggling to balance family, work, and business-building • Anyone overwhelmed by systems, tools, and operational complexity • Entrepreneurs trying to maximize limited time and energy • People stuck in learning mode instead of taking action • Investors pursuing their first self-storage deal

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most people don't fail because they lack information.

They fail because they lose focus on what actually matters.

This episode strips away the noise and reminds you that buying your first storage facility doesn't require perfect systems, endless preparation, or knowing every future step in advance. It requires focused action, consistency, and the willingness to keep showing up even when progress feels slow.

If you've been stuck, overwhelmed, or distracted by things that don't truly move the needle, this conversation will help you simplify your approach and refocus on the actions that create real momentum.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan Wentzel after his call with the owner of the 53,000-square-foot storage facility. Going into the conversation, the opportunity looked extremely promising: seller financing was on the table, the facility was 100% occupied, and the deal had the potential to generate well over six figures in annual cash flow.

But during the call, the seller shifted directions completely.

Instead of pursuing seller financing, the owner revealed he now wants to cash out and complete a 1031 exchange into another property—primarily to avoid an upcoming Washington state tax increase. Suddenly, the structure of the deal changes, the financing strategy changes, and the entire opportunity has to be reevaluated.

What makes this episode powerful isn't just the negotiation shift—it's the mindset battle that follows.

As Dan starts slipping back into discouragement and assuming the deal is "another one that comes and goes," Alex immediately steps in to challenge the pattern. Through direct coaching, he pushes Dan to stop allowing past experiences to shape future expectations and reminds him that negotiation changes are not rejection—they're simply part of the process.

The conversation also breaks down advanced deal structuring concepts, including hybrid seller financing offers, using banks alongside seller carrybacks, and why giving sellers multiple offer options often leads to better outcomes.

This episode is a masterclass in adaptability, negotiation strategy, and learning how to stay emotionally steady when deals evolve in unexpected ways.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

• Adapt quickly when sellers change deal terms mid-negotiation • Structure multiple creative financing offers to increase flexibility • Use hybrid financing strategies with banks and seller carrybacks • Avoid letting past failed deals influence current opportunities • Stay emotionally grounded when negotiations shift unexpectedly • Reframe setbacks as opportunities to improve deal structure • Focus on solving problems instead of fearing rejection

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo coaches Dan Wentzel moments before a live call with a self-storage owner who may be open to selling a 53,000-square-foot facility through seller financing. But instead of obsessing over the numbers or trying to "close the deal," Alex shifts the focus toward something far more important: understanding the seller.

As they prepare for the conversation, Alex reinforces a foundational principle that separates average investors from great ones: focus on the seller, not the storage facility. By uncovering the owner's real motivations, goals, and timeline, Dan can structure a deal around what actually matters to them—not just what looks good on paper.

The episode also dives deep into creative financing strategy, including how to think about down payments, amortization, no-payment periods, private lenders vs equity partners, and long-term cash flow. Through real-time underwriting and deal analysis, Alex walks through how this opportunity could potentially generate six figures in annual cash flow while requiring little or no money out of pocket.

But the real breakthrough in this conversation isn't the deal structure—it's how Dan shows up. Following the previous episode's mindset reset, Alex challenges him to communicate with confidence, ask better questions, and stop approaching seller conversations from a place of need.

This episode is a masterclass in seller psychology, creative deal structuring, and the mindset required to lead conversations with confidence and clarity.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

Focus on seller motivation instead of getting distracted by the deal
Ask better questions that uncover what sellers actually want
Structure seller financing deals with stronger terms and flexibility
Evaluate long-term cash flow opportunities through simple underwriting
Think through equity partners vs private lender structures
Show up to seller conversations with confidence and authority

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[0:55] Why seller conversations matter more than spreadsheets [2:33] The background of the 53,000 sq ft seller-financed opportunity [4:12] Spotting opportunity in unsophisticated storage markets [5:32] The power of three years of consistent follow-up [6:26] Why understanding seller timeline is critical [8:10] Framing questions around what the seller actually wants [9:49] Why seller financing creates major opportunity [11:20] What 100% occupancy usually signals about upside potential [12:58] Breaking down the facility revenue and asking price [14:16] Evaluating seller financing terms: down payment, interest, and amortization [16:08] Structuring no-payment periods to maximize cash flow [17:49] Calculating NOI and projected cash flow step by step [19:58] Using private lenders vs equity partners to fund deals [22:14] Why this is more of a cash flow play than an equity play [24:05] Breaking down projected cash flow over the first three years [25:58] Understanding long-term upside and exit strategy [27:05] "50% of the watermelon is better than 100% of the grape" [27:27] Preparing mentally and physically before seller conversations [27:52] Why confidence and focus matter more than perfect notes

⸻

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors preparing for real seller conversations
Listeners trying to structure creative financing deals
Anyone learning how to evaluate cash flow opportunities
Entrepreneurs struggling with confidence in negotiations
People interested in seller financing and low-money-down acquisitions

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most investors spend too much time analyzing deals and not enough time understanding sellers.

This episode shows how the best opportunities come from uncovering what the seller actually wants—and then structuring a deal around it. From creative financing to confidence in communication, this conversation breaks down both the tactical and psychological side of getting deals done.

If you've ever wondered how experienced investors approach seller calls, structure financing creatively, and think through cash flow opportunities in real time, this episode gives you a front-row seat.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel through one of the most critical inflection points in the entire journey so far. After consistently taking action, making offers, and having conversations, Dan finds himself stuck in a frustrating cycle—doing the work, but expecting the same disappointing outcome every time.

What unfolds is a powerful shift away from tactics and into the internal game. Alex identifies the real issue immediately: it's not a lack of knowledge, resources, or opportunity—it's a mindset problem. More specifically, it's the expectation that deals won't work out, which is quietly influencing everything from tone and confidence to how Dan shows up in conversations with sellers.

This episode pulls back the curtain on how belief, energy, and communication directly impact results. From self-sabotage and low confidence to timid conversations and lack of frame control, Alex breaks down how these subtle factors are costing opportunities—and how to fix them.

But more importantly, the conversation introduces a new way forward. Instead of trying to control every outcome or force deals to work, the focus shifts to letting go, showing up consistently, and trusting the process. By reframing expectations, protecting confidence, and communicating with conviction, Dan is challenged to break the cycle and step into a new level of performance.

This episode is a turning point—where the realization hits that success isn't just about what you do, but how you think, how you show up, and what you believe is possible.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

Break the cycle of expecting negative outcomes from your efforts
Identify and eliminate self-sabotaging thought patterns
Communicate with more confidence and authority in seller conversations
Shift from outcome-based thinking to process-based execution
Protect your confidence as your most valuable asset
Show up with energy and conviction that builds trust and credibility

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[1:33] Why feeling stuck and discouraged is more common than you think [3:11] Dan's frustration: doing the work but seeing the same results [5:01] The hidden problem: expecting deals to fail before they start [6:20] Why mindset—not tactics—is the real bottleneck [7:49] Protecting confidence as the #1 job of an entrepreneur [9:25] How low confidence shows up in conversations with sellers [11:03] The impact of timid tone and lack of frame control [13:05] Why belief must match communication [14:24] Self-sabotage: how your expectations shape your outcomes [16:05] The shift from chasing deals to evaluating opportunities [18:05] Why sellers need to feel your certainty and conviction [20:06] Contagious enthusiasm and how it influences results [22:28] The importance of asking better questions—not more questions [24:57] Choosing the story you tell yourself about your progress [27:32] Why consistency guarantees results over time [29:50] Letting go of control and trusting the process [31:45] The role of faith and releasing pressure [34:20] Practical ways to shift your energy before key conversations [36:30] Focusing on helping—not closing—the deal [38:45] Why one mindset shift can unlock everything

Investors who feel stuck despite taking consistent action

Anyone dealing with discouragement after repeated "no's"
Entrepreneurs who know what to do but aren't seeing results

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo reconnects with Dan Wentzel after a major life shift: the birth of his second child. With his available time cut down significantly, Dan finds himself navigating a new reality—less time, more responsibility, and growing pressure around his progress in self-storage.

But instead of treating this as a limitation, the conversation quickly reframes it as an opportunity. With only about ten hours a week to dedicate to the business, the focus becomes clear: how do you maximize that time in the most effective way possible?

Alex breaks down a powerful concept that challenges how most people think about productivity. It's not about how many hours you have—it's about what you do with them. Ten focused hours spent on revenue-generating activities like conversations, deal analysis, and making offers will always outperform thirty scattered hours spent in research and hesitation.

As the conversation unfolds, a key shift emerges. Dan begins to lean into collaboration—partnering with other members of the Storage Wins community to leverage time, skills, and opportunities. What initially felt like a constraint becomes a catalyst for growth, forcing him to think differently, act more intentionally, and tap into the power of working with others.

The episode also dives into the importance of mindset during difficult seasons. Feeling stuck, discouraged, or behind is part of the journey—but how you interpret that feeling determines what happens next. Through real, unfiltered conversation, Alex challenges Dan to reframe his situation, focus on progress over perfection, and commit to staying in the game.

This episode is a powerful reminder that progress doesn't require perfect conditions—just consistent, focused action and the willingness to adapt.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

Maximize limited time by focusing on high-impact activities
Identify revenue-generating actions that actually move deals forward
Leverage partnerships to multiply your effort and deal flow
Reframe life changes as opportunities instead of setbacks
Stay consistent even when your schedule and priorities shift
Strengthen your mindset during seasons of doubt and uncertainty

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[0:52] The reality of having less time after a major life change [2:17] Why reduced hours can actually create better focus [3:31] The shift from 30+ hours per week down to around 10 [5:39] Leveraging collaboration to maintain momentum [7:04] How partnerships helped uncover new deal opportunities [9:23] The power of working with others to multiply results [11:49] Why ten focused hours can outperform thirty scattered hours [13:21] The difference between busy work and revenue-generating activity [15:01] Key actions: conversations, underwriting, and making offers [17:44] The concept of leverage and multiplying your efforts [20:13] Scarcity vs abundance mindset when working with others [22:22] Why difficult conversations strengthen partnerships [24:06] "Date, don't marry" when it comes to partnerships [26:40] The importance of setting expectations upfront [28:52] Why most partnerships fail—and how to avoid it [30:14] Feeling stuck and discouraged during the journey [32:05] The role of mindset in pushing through difficult seasons [34:22] Why quitting might feel like an option—but isn't [36:08] Reframing your journey as training, not failure [38:20] The mindset of finishing the race no matter what

⸻

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors balancing business with major life changes
Listeners who feel like they don't have enough time
Anyone struggling to stay consistent with limited availability
Entrepreneurs navigating doubt, frustration, or slow progress
People looking to leverage partnerships instead of doing everything alone

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Most people believe they need more time to succeed.

This episode proves the opposite.

By focusing on what actually matters and leveraging the right people, you can make meaningful progress even with limited time. More importantly, it shows how your mindset—not your schedule—is often the biggest factor in whether you move forward or stay stuck.

If you've ever felt like life is getting in the way of your goals, this conversation will help you reframe your situation and move forward with clarity and confidence.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel on a unique self-storage opportunity that doesn't fit Dan's buy box—but still presents real value. Instead of forcing the deal to work, the conversation shifts toward a smarter strategy: wholesaling it to someone whose buy box it does fit.

What makes this episode powerful is the shift in perspective. Dan initially begins to position the deal based on why it doesn't work for him—pointing out the operational complexity of having two homes and a warehouse on site. But Alex quickly reframes that thinking: just because something is a negative to you doesn't mean it's a negative to someone else.

They unpack one of the most important lessons for any investor—especially those wholesaling deals—how you communicate value matters. Being transparent about the "warts" of a deal is important, but overemphasizing them or unintentionally downplaying the upside can kill momentum and interest.

The conversation also dives into evaluating deals based on current income vs potential income, how to think about pro forma without overpaying for it, and why your offer should always be grounded in what the asset produces today—not what it might produce in the future.

This episode is a masterclass in perspective, positioning, and understanding that your job isn't just to find deals—it's to see who they're actually for.

You'll Learn How To:

Identify when a deal doesn't fit your buy box—and what to do instead
Position a deal effectively when wholesaling to other investors
Highlight upside without overselling or misleading
Avoid "selling against yourself" when presenting opportunities
Evaluate deals based on current income vs potential future income
Use perspective to match deals with the right buyers

⸻

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[1:25] Dan's update: momentum, partnerships, and deals in progress [3:15] How joint venturing with other investors expands opportunity [6:00] Why partnerships should be structured deal-by-deal—not long-term commitments [9:19] The importance of having difficult conversations upfront in partnerships [12:05] Building relationships with brokers and why it takes time [14:22] Why relationship capital is more valuable than financial capital [18:32] Overview of the Arkansas deal and seller motivation [20:15] Why crafting an offer should be based on current income—not potential [22:31] Why this deal doesn't fit Dan's buy box [23:10] The shift to wholesaling the opportunity instead [23:45] The mistake: unintentionally "selling against" the deal [24:58] Why negatives for you can be positives for someone else [26:10] Additional income potential from homes and warehouse [28:05] Why you shouldn't pay for pro forma income [30:20] Using simple deal filters to evaluate opportunities quickly [33:40] Why seller expectations don't determine deal value [36:15] The power of creative financing and structuring offers [38:10] Adjusting your offer based on real numbers—not assumptions [40:45] Setting up the next step: refining the offer and negotiation strategy

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors trying to define or refine their buy box
Wholesalers looking to position deals more effectively
Listeners who struggle with evaluating deals outside their ideal criteria
Anyone learning how to communicate deal value to other investors
Entrepreneurs who need to think more strategically about opportunity

Why You Should Listen:

Not every deal is for you—but every deal is for someone.

This episode shows how one shift in perspective can turn a "no" into an opportunity. By understanding your buy box, communicating value correctly, and focusing on who the deal is actually for, you can unlock more opportunities without forcing bad deals to work.

If you've ever passed on a deal or struggled to position one to others, this conversation will help you see opportunities differently—and act on them more effectively.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel break down what happens when consistent action finally compounds. After months of hesitation, Dan hires a virtual assistant — and within two weeks, four legitimate storage opportunities land in his pipeline.

Alex and Dan unpack why hiring a VA took eight months, what mindset blocks were holding Dan back, and how leveraging the Storage Wins community made the transition easier. From there, they dive deep into one specific 36,000 square foot facility, walking through back-of-the-napkin underwriting, cap rate analysis, seller motivation, and how to think about value-add potential the right way.

This episode isn't just about hiring help. It's about understanding leverage — leverage of time, leverage of community, leverage of terms, and leverage of upside inside the deal itself.

You'll Learn How To:

Use a virtual assistant to dramatically increase deal flow
Overcome hesitation around hiring and delegation
Underwrite a storage deal using simple back-of-the-napkin math
Analyze revenue, expenses, and NOI quickly on a seller call
Identify upside through rate gaps and unsophisticated operations
Use seller financing terms to increase purchasing power
Control deal structure by focusing on terms, not just price
Incentivize your VA to create long-term leverage

⸻

[0:00] Why cash flow in storage "depends" [1:08] The Season 2 mission: closing before Thanksgiving 2025 [3:02] Hiring a VA after eight months of hesitation [6:42] The fear of training and financial commitment [7:30] Why $70 per week created massive leverage [9:01] Leveraging community to solve hiring challenges [12:42] Four new facilities added to the pipeline in two weeks [13:40] Why mom-and-pop operators create opportunity [15:36] Reducing expenses vs. increasing revenue [18:40] Explaining debt service coverage ratio to sellers [21:38] Breaking down a 36,000 sq ft deal opportunity [34:58] Back-of-the-napkin NOI calculation using a 35% expense ratio [35:54] Applying an 8 cap to determine baseline valuation [36:48] Spotting 50% rate gaps vs. competitors [39:28] Matching a $2M offer with better positioning [41:52] "Your price, my terms" explained [45:08] Why incentivizing your VA accelerates growth

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors stuck trying to do everything themselves
Listeners who want more deal flow but feel time-constrained
Anyone unsure how to quickly analyze a storage opportunity
Operators learning how to structure seller-financed deals
Investors ready to move from slow progress to momentum

Why You Should Listen:

Momentum changes everything.

Dan didn't suddenly get lucky — he created leverage. By hiring a VA and leaning into community support, he multiplied his outreach and surfaced four serious opportunities in two weeks.

This episode shows you exactly how to think through a real deal: how to estimate NOI, apply cap rates, spot value-add potential, and structure terms that increase purchasing power. If you've ever wondered how experienced investors quickly evaluate deals while staying disciplined on risk, this is a real-time masterclass.

And perhaps most importantly — it proves that sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn't a signed contract. It's the decision to stop doing everything yourself.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel through one of the most real and raw moments of the journey so far. After months of working on a small wholesale deal, Dan finds himself stuck, frustrated, and mentally drained—unsure whether the deal is even worth pursuing anymore.

What makes this episode powerful isn't just the deal itself—it's the internal battle that comes with it. The uncertainty. The sunk cost. The time, energy, and money already invested. And the pressure to "make it work" simply because you've come this far.

Alex steps in to simplify everything. Instead of overanalyzing or trying to fix the situation, the focus shifts to one thing: making a decision. Move forward with clarity—or cut bait and redirect your energy toward better opportunities.

The conversation also highlights a critical lesson for every investor: not every deal is worth saving. Sometimes the biggest win is protecting your time, your confidence, and your ability to move on.

[26:13] The importance of decisive action vs overthinking

[29:10] Why chasing deals puts you in a weak position

Anyone dealing with frustration, delays, or unclear next steps

The difference is whether you stay stuck—or step up and take control.

This episode shows how to recognize when a deal is no longer serving you, how to cut through the noise, and how to make decisions that protect your time, energy, and momentum.

If you've ever felt stuck in a situation you can't seem to move forward from, this conversation will help you break out of it and take your next step with confidence.

After spending months trying to get a small deal under contract, Dan finds himself stuck in the details—overthinking contracts, working with the wrong professionals, and letting fear slow down progress.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel break down a live deal opportunity that checks many of the boxes investors are looking for: strong current revenue, below-market rents, and favorable seller financing terms. But as the numbers start to come together, the real conversation shifts from the deal itself to something deeper—confidence.

Dan walks through a 32,000 square foot facility in Washington state that's generating roughly $275,000 in annual revenue with clear upside potential. With seller financing on the table at just 5% interest and no money required out of pocket, the opportunity presents a realistic path to immediate cash flow and long-term growth.

As Alex breaks down the numbers in real time, the deal begins to take shape: from roughly $2,000 per month in current cash flow to a projected $4,500+ per month after implementing operational improvements and raising rents. But despite the strength of the deal, hesitation still shows up—highlighting a key truth for every investor: the biggest obstacle isn't always the deal, it's the belief that you're ready for it.

This episode is a powerful blend of tactical deal analysis and mindset coaching—showing you how to evaluate opportunities through worst-case, likely-case, and best-case scenarios, while also challenging the fear that can hold you back from moving forward.

You'll Learn How To:

Evaluate deals using worst-case, likely-case, and best-case scenarios
Break down cash flow, NOI, and debt service in simple terms
Identify strong opportunities based on current performance—not just projections
Leverage seller financing to acquire deals with little to no money down
Decide when to bring in an equity partner versus taking down a deal yourself
Move quickly on opportunities without overanalyzing

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel shift back into action mode as momentum continues to build. With a stronger mindset and clearer priorities in place, the focus becomes simple: consistent execution. Not perfect execution. Not overthinking. Just doing the work that moves deals forward.

As Dan continues having conversations, submitting offers, and staying active in the market, the results begin to compound. What once felt uncertain now starts to feel predictable—not because the deals are guaranteed, but because the process is.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel take a step back from tactics and dive into something even more important: how to pursue your first deal without losing sight of what matters most. As Dan gets closer than ever to closing, the pressure begins to build—and with a new baby on the way, the tension between business and life becomes very real.

This conversation goes beyond self-storage and into the internal game every entrepreneur faces. The fear of not moving fast enough. The comparison to others. The belief that more time equals more success. And the pressure we place on ourselves that can quietly slow everything down.

Alex challenges these assumptions head-on, introducing concepts like thought auditing, Parkinson's Law, and redefining productivity—not by how much time you spend, but by how intentionally you use it. This episode is a powerful reminder that success isn't just about closing deals—it's about building a business that actually supports your life.

You'll Learn How To:

Release self-imposed pressure that's slowing your progress
Reframe the belief that more time equals more results
Use Parkinson's Law to become more efficient with less time
Audit your thoughts to identify limiting beliefs and false assumptions
Balance business growth with family, health, and personal priorities
Create a life-first approach that your business supports—not replaces

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel break down what they call the "secret weapon" for standing out in a competitive deal environment: the buyer info sheet. As Dan continues building momentum and getting real traction with sellers and brokers, this one-page document becomes a key factor in shifting how others perceive him—from just another unknown buyer to someone credible, relatable, and capable of closing.

What makes this conversation powerful is how simple the strategy is—and how few investors actually use it. While most buyers submit offers that are just numbers on a page, this approach adds a human element that builds trust and creates connection. The result is more responses, more conversations, and more opportunities to stay in the game instead of getting ignored.

[15:05] How to demonstrate financial credibility without your own capital

[16:17] Leveraging relationships, mentorship, and networks to build confidence

[17:48] Why being honest about being new can actually work in your favor

[18:36] The importance of keeping the document simple and digestible

[19:47] What to highlight to make your profile stand out quickly

[20:12] Why adding a family photo can humanize your offer

[21:18] The call to action: build your buyer info sheet within 24 hours

Investors struggling to get responses from brokers or sellers
Anyone submitting offers but not gaining traction or feedback
Beginners who don't yet own deals but want to be taken seriously
Operators looking for a simple way to stand out in competitive markets
People who want to build trust faster without relying on experience alone

What makes this moment so impactful isn't just the loss—it's the realization that the deal was misunderstood, not unavailable.

They break down exactly what went wrong in the analysis, how focusing too narrowly on one exit strategy caused Dan to overlook a highly profitable opportunity, and why understanding multiple deal paths—especially long-term cash flow—can completely change your decision-making.

The conversation also dives into negotiation dynamics, including how to follow up without chasing, how to use "pull-away" communication to re-engage sellers, and why asking questions—not making statements—is the key to getting responses.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel walk through the current state of Dan's deal pipeline, including one opportunity that's verbally accepted and moving toward contract, and another that requires deeper analysis to determine if it's actually worth pursuing.

As the conversation unfolds, Alex highlights the importance of clarity—specifically having a defined Buy Box Blueprint—and how that clarity allows Dan to quickly identify when a deal fits his long-term goals versus when it should be positioned as a wholesale opportunity. This distinction becomes critical as they break down a deal that looks promising on the surface but reveals challenges when you evaluate the market, demographics, and income potential.

They also dive into real-world execution: managing sellers who operate "old school," staying consistent with communication, learning from small mistakes, and continuing to stack wins through daily action. The episode closes with a deeper look at deal valuation, cap rates, and how to approach sellers with unrealistic expectations—setting the stage for creative deal structuring in the next episode.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo coaches Dan Wentzel through a live deal situation involving a small self-storage facility where the seller verbally accepted an offer but is now reconsidering after speaking with his spouse. Together, they break down what's actually happening beneath the surface of the negotiation and how investors should respond when sellers hesitate or ask for more money.

Rather than focusing purely on numbers, Alex explains the importance of leverage, positioning, and communication.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo challenges Dan Wentzel to confront one of the biggest hidden obstacles investors face: lack of intentional control over their calendar. After reviewing the previous week, it becomes clear that progress isn't just about knowing what actions to take—it's about protecting the time required to execute those actions.

Alex explains why operating without a clear plan is like being a leaf in the wind—reacting to whatever comes your way instead of intentionally directing your week. Together, they unpack the importance of structuring your calendar, planning your work blocks, and protecting the activities that actually move deals forward.

This episode becomes a powerful reminder that building a business isn't only about strategy or knowledge—it's about discipline, time ownership, and committing to the daily actions that create results.

Take control of your calendar so your priorities don't get dictated by others
Structure your week to create intentional time for deal-making activities
Recognize when lack of planning is slowing your progress
Turn vague goals into scheduled action blocks

Build momentum by aligning daily habits with long-term goals

[0:00] Why controlling your calendar is essential to success

[1:37] Recap of the Season 2 coaching journey with Dan

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors who feel busy but struggle to make real progress
Listeners who find their weeks slipping away without meaningful output
Anyone trying to balance investing goals with work and family responsibilities
Operators who want to become more intentional with their time and focus

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Many investors believe they need more knowledge, more resources, or more opportunities to succeed. In reality, they often just need better control over their time.

This episode highlights how easily momentum can be lost when your calendar isn't aligned with your goals. By becoming more intentional with how you plan and protect your time, you create the space needed for meaningful conversations, deal analysis, and consistent follow-up.

If you've ever felt like your week disappeared without moving you closer to your goals, this conversation will challenge you to take back control of your schedule—and your progress.

Respond productively when life disrupts your plans

If episode eight was about creating leverage and increasing deal flow, episode nine is about building the systems that keep deals from slipping through the cracks.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo continues coaching Dan Wentzel as momentum begins to build. Dan now has multiple legitimate storage opportunities in his pipeline, and the conversation shifts from simply generating leads to managing them effectively.

Alex walks Dan through the importance of having a clear lead intake process, a consistent follow-up system, and a structured way to track offers and key performance indicators. With several potential deals in motion, they break down how to organize opportunities, maintain momentum, and avoid letting promising leads fall apart due to lack of process.

The episode also reinforces one of the biggest lessons of the season so far: repetition creates mastery. Just like athletes train through thousands of reps before game day, investors must repeat the same disciplined actions—calls, offers, follow-ups, and deal analysis—until the process becomes instinctive.

⸻

You'll Learn How To:

Build a simple lead intake system so opportunities don't fall through the cracks
Track offers, follow-ups, and key performance indicators effectively
Use repetition to improve seller conversations and deal execution
Create a weekly accountability rhythm to evaluate progress

Develop confidence through consistent execution and feedback

[23:40] The value of structured follow-up with storage owners

[31:08] Narrowing seller options to reduce decision fatigue

[32:17] Why repetition leads to instinctive execution

[33:19] Guiding sellers through the process instead of asking permission

⸻

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors starting to generate deal flow but feeling overwhelmed by opportunities
Listeners who struggle to stay organized with leads and follow-up
Anyone unsure how to track offers and conversations effectively
Operators who want to build systems that support consistent growth

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Finding deals is only half the battle. Without systems, even great opportunities can fall apart.

This episode highlights the transition from hustling for deals to building a process that supports consistent progress. By creating simple systems for tracking leads, offers, and follow-ups, investors can stay organized, move faster, and increase the likelihood of turning opportunities into actual acquisitions.

If you're starting to generate momentum but feel like things could slip through the cracks, this episode will help you build the structure needed to keep moving forward.

If episode seven was about converting conversations into contracts, episode eight is about increasing deal flow — and knowing how to analyze opportunity when it hits your desk.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel break down what happens when consistent action finally compounds. After months of hesitation, Dan hires a virtual assistant — and within two weeks, four legitimate storage opportunities land in his pipeline.

Alex and Dan unpack why hiring a VA took eight months, what mindset blocks were holding Dan back, and how leveraging the Storage Wins community made the transition easier. From there, they dive deep into one specific 36,000 square foot facility, walking through back-of-the-napkin underwriting, cap rate analysis, seller motivation, and how to think about value-add potential the right way.

This episode isn't just about hiring help. It's about understanding leverage — leverage of time, leverage of community, leverage of terms, and leverage of upside inside the deal itself.

You'll Learn How To:

Use a virtual assistant to dramatically increase deal flow
Overcome hesitation around hiring and delegation
Underwrite a storage deal using simple back-of-the-napkin math
Analyze revenue, expenses, and NOI quickly on a seller call
Identify upside through rate gaps and unsophisticated operations
Use seller financing terms to increase purchasing power
Control deal structure by focusing on terms, not just price
Incentivize your VA to create long-term leverage

[39:28] Matching a $2M offer with better positioning

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors stuck trying to do everything themselves
Listeners who want more deal flow but feel time-constrained
Anyone unsure how to quickly analyze a storage opportunity
Operators learning how to structure seller-financed deals
Investors ready to move from slow progress to momentum

⸻

Why You Should Listen:

Momentum changes everything.

Dan didn't suddenly get lucky — he created leverage. By hiring a VA and leaning into community support, he multiplied his outreach and surfaced four serious opportunities in two weeks.

This episode shows you exactly how to think through a real deal: how to estimate NOI, apply cap rates, spot value-add potential, and structure terms that increase purchasing power. If you've ever wondered how experienced investors quickly evaluate deals while staying disciplined on risk, this is a real-time masterclass.

And perhaps most importantly — it proves that sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn't a signed contract. It's the decision to stop doing everything yourself.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel to confront two of the biggest silent killers of progress: over-preparation and inefficiency. What starts as a check-in on wins and challenges quickly turns into a deep dive on mindset resistance, wasted time, and why "getting ready" often becomes the reason offers never get sent.

Alex challenges Dan to stop treating seller calls like exams, start having real human conversations, and simplify the process of getting offers out the door. This episode is a blend of mindset reset and tactical clarity—designed to help action-takers stop overthinking and start executing.

You'll Learn How To: * Break free from over-preparation that's killing your momentum * Have confident seller conversations without scripts or perfect data * Identify and track the KPIs that actually drive acquisitions * Simplify the offer process so speed doesn't come at the cost of confidence * Reclaim wasted time and refocus on needle-moving actions

If you've ever said, "I just need to prepare a little more before I act," this episode will help you recognize the trap—and get out of it.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo shifts the focus from mindset to mechanics—helping Dan Wentzel move from belief to clarity. Together, they define Dan's freedom number, break down what he actually wants self-storage to do for his family, and start building the buy box that will guide every decision moving forward.

This is where vague goals get replaced with real numbers. Where "someday" turns into a deadline. And where most aspiring investors realize the thing holding them back isn't opportunity—it's clarity.

You'll Learn How To: * Identify your true "freedom number" and why it matters * Decide whether cash flow, equity, or both should drive your first deal * Build a clear buy box that eliminates distractions and wasted time * Understand why knowing your personal numbers is non-negotiable * Gain confidence by aligning strategy with your actual lifestyle goals

What You'll Learn in This Episode: [0:00] Introduction

[3:25] Why Season 2 shifts from mindset to mechanics

[6:01] How confidence erodes when offers don't turn into deals

[10:14] The critical question: what do you want self-storage to do for you?

[12:08] Cash flow vs. equity—and why most people confuse the two

[20:45] The wake-up call: not knowing your numbers is a problem

[23:49] Defining the $25,000/month freedom number

[30:29] How to build a buy box that actually filters deals

[37:40] Why lack of clarity leads to burnout and quitting

[41:15] Facility size, markets, and why "bigger isn't always better"

[54:07] Active vs. passive investing—and choosing the right role

Who This Episode Is For: * Aspiring storage investors overwhelmed by too many options * Listeners who've taken action but feel scattered or stuck * Anyone unclear on what success actually looks like financially * People ready to replace hope with a concrete plan

Why You Should Listen: Most investors don't fail because of lack of effort—they fail because they never define what they're aiming for. This episode forces clarity around money, lifestyle, goals, and deal criteria so every future action has direction.

If you've ever said "I just want financial freedom" without knowing what that actually means in dollars, this episode will change how you think—and how you move.

Let's be real—if you've been consuming self-storage content for months (or years), learning the strategies, joining communities, and still haven't taken meaningful action, this episode is meant to hit a nerve—in the best way possible.

In the Season 2 premiere of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo kicks off something bold: a live, unscripted coaching journey. This season documents the real-time path of Dan Wenzel, an aspiring self-storage investor who's been in the game for over two years, hasn't closed a deal yet, and is now committing—publicly—to buying his first facility within six months.

No highlight reels. No fake certainty. Just honest conversations about fear, doubt, mindset, imperfect action, and what it actually takes to follow through when life, comparison, and uncertainty show up. If you've ever wondered whether this is truly possible for someone like you, this season is your front-row seat.

You'll Learn How To: * Identify the real reasons you've stayed stuck—even when you "know what to do" * Break through comfort, fear, and comparison that quietly kill momentum * Understand what imperfect action looks like in real time * Build belief without needing prior real estate experience or capital * Learn alongside someone else's journey instead of guessing alone

What You'll Learn in This Episode: [0:00] Introduction

[2:55] Why education without action creates a false sense of progress

[5:22] The comfort trap—and how W-2 stability can quietly delay your goals

[7:48] The Season 2 announcement: a live coaching experiment begins

[12:34] The opportunity cost of not pursuing your goals

[18:22] How comparison sabotages confidence and decision-making

[24:30] The power of a strong "why" when quitting feels justified

[33:45] What this season will document: mindset, strategy, mistakes, and wins

[37:31] Why commitment matters more than certainty

Who This Episode Is For: * Listeners who've been learning but haven't taken consistent action * Aspiring self-storage investors stuck in fear, doubt, or comparison * Parents or professionals pursuing freedom with limited time or experience * Anyone who wants proof that progress doesn't require perfection

Why You Should Listen: Six months from now, Dan will either own his first storage facility—or he'll know exactly why he didn't. This episode launches a season that removes the smoke and mirrors from self-storage investing and replaces them with real conversations, real coaching, and real accountability.

Whether the journey is smooth or messy, you'll learn everything alongside him. This is the most raw, honest, and unscripted season of Storage Wins yet—and it may be the push you've been waiting for.

You're not asking people for money, you're offering them the chance to become the bank.

Let's be honest—you probably already know what you need to do to land your first self-storage deal. But if you're stuck, it's likely because you're avoiding it.

Let's take that next step—together.

In this very special crossover episode, I sat down with my good friend Joe Dellefave on the Creative Finance Playbook podcast to share the real story of why I walked away from a highly profitable wholesaling business at the peak of COVID to go all-in on self-storage. Everyone thought I was crazy—until they saw what storage could do.

We dive into how I run nearly 900 units across multiple states with no employees, why wholesaling left me feeling stuck and overworked, and how storage helped me reclaim my time and build scalable, predictable wealth. I also break down the first deals I did—none of which used my own money—and share how creative finance, focus, and a powerful "why" made it all possible.

I sat down with Eric Dumais, a self-storage investor in the making, who's been chasing deals for eight months but can't seem to get across the finish line.

In part one of this two-part series, we dive deep into the real reason you're stuck—and spoiler: it's not the market, lack of deals, or money. It's mindset. I help Eric unpack what's keeping him stuck, the dangers of staying too close to home, and how the fear of the unknown is costing you time and opportunity. Whether you're like Eric, searching in your backyard, or you're overwhelmed by expanding your buy box, this episode is going to challenge your thinking and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

You'll Learn How To:

Get out of analysis paralysis and take the next step in your journey
Expand your buy box without feeling overwhelmed
Identify the mental roadblocks that are really keeping you stuck
Build meaningful relationships with mom-and-pop storage owners
Move from passive research to active deal-making

[8:50] The hidden cost of staying in your comfort zone

[16:53] Why narrowing your focus too soon is slowing down your success
[19:54] The power of boots on the ground and building real relationships
[26:38] Why thinking long-term and relationally leads to deal flow

Who This Episode Is For:

Investors stuck in the "learning phase" but haven't closed a deal yet Anyone afraid to expand beyond their local market DIYers who overthink, over-plan, and under-execute People who are serious about buying their first facility in the next 6–12 months

If you've been chasing deals for months (or even years) and can't seem to break through, this episode is your wake-up call. Eric's story might be yours too—and by hearing his live coaching, you'll gain the mindset shifts and next steps you need to finally take action and get your first deal under contract.

What if the deal that could change your entire storage investing journey isn't even on your radar right now? Too many investors cling so tightly to their buy box that they end up missing incredible opportunities. The truth is, the buy box should guide your focus — not fence you in. Growth happens when you stay open, ask better questions, and take imperfect action.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo challenges the way investors think about their buying criteria. He shares how one student's simple question inside the Storage Wins community sparked a deep conversation about what it really means to stay flexible and focused. Alex reveals why the "perfect" deal doesn't exist, how to turn smaller or unconventional opportunities into stepping stones, and how your buy box should evolve as you grow. Whether you're buying, wholesaling, or building relationships with brokers, this episode will change how you evaluate and pursue deals forever.

You'll Learn How To:

Use your buy box to stay focused and clear on the right deals
Spot value in smaller opportunities that others overlook
Build real confidence through consistent, imperfect action
Turn every conversation into a chance to grow relationships and deals
Balance direct-to-owner outreach with strong broker connections

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

[00:00] The buy box as a filter that guides focus and action
[01:00] Building real confidence through imperfect decisions
[03:00] How clear criteria show professionalism and attract deals
[06:00] The community question that turned into a deal making masterclass
[08:00] Why every seller conversation builds skill and confidence
[10:00] The 80/20 outreach rule that drives real results
[13:00] How your buy box evolves with experience and growth
[15:00] Saying no faster to stay clear and focused
[17:00] Better questions and better rooms create better outcomes
[19:00] Showing up consistently and taking imperfect action

Who This Episode Is For:

New investors waiting for the "perfect" deal but ready to start taking action
Entrepreneurs who want to build confidence through real experience
Storage owners and action takers ready to turn momentum into results

Why You Should Listen:

The buy box isn't meant to trap you. It's meant to train your focus. Every conversation, every call, and every offer is a rep that builds your confidence and brings you closer to your first or next deal. If you've been overanalyzing, waiting for the stars to align, or saying no to good deals because they don't check every box, this episode is your wake-up call. The smartest investors aren't the ones with all the answers, they're the ones who keep showing up, asking better questions, and taking action.

“Never, ever sell yourself short. You should be making as much money as possible.” - Jeremy Beland

ABOUT JEREMY BELAND

At 40 years old, Jeremy Beland made the pivotal decision to sell his townhouse and downsize into a tiny apartment, using that equity to invest in a beginner's coaching program and kickstart his wholesaling journey. This leap of faith has since evolved into an expert off-market acquisition company that employs various exit strategies, including wholesaling, wholetailing, flipping, and retaining properties as rentals.

Jeremy’s passion for real estate and his genuine desire to help others achieve financial freedom led to the founding of REI Freedom. The company focuses on helping part-time investors transition into full-time roles by developing their acquisition and disposition skills. In its first year, REI Freedom welcomed 25 students into the program, many of whom successfully closed deals within 90 days and continued to build momentum with ongoing support.

As REI Freedom continues to grow, Jeremy remains dedicated to his students, ensuring they have the tools and guidance needed to take their real estate investing to the next level and create a life of financial independence.

"It's hard to own real estate without first owning the real estate between your ears." - Jay Conner
"Desperation has got a smell to it, and it's not a good smell." - Jay Conner
"When you separate conversations about private money and specific deals, it takes all the pressure off." - Jay Conner
"Private lenders are not investing in your deals. These private lenders are investing in you. - Jay Conner

ABOUT JAY CONNER

Jay Conner, a nationally renowned real estate investor, faced frustrations in his initial investments due to large down payments, high origination fees, and restrictive rules imposed by banks. The situation worsened when his bank suddenly cut off his funding during a market downturn. This prompted Jay to explore alternative investment strategies like buying properties "Subject-To", using options, and buying with "Lease/Options.”

Still needing a reliable funding source, Jay designed a unique system combining the best aspects of his research. With this system, he was able to secure $250,000 from his first prospect, followed by $2,150,000 in private funding within a few months. This system, dubbed "Where To Get The Money Now," revolutionized his investment career and helped him realize massive profits annually, despite living in a small city.

ABOUT JERRY GREEN

Jerry is a native of Ohio and lives in Germantown, Ohio, with his wife of 20 years and their four children.

Jerry started in the REI Business in 1994 after going through bankruptcy in Springfield, Ohio. He began by wholesaling properties and then merged into Fix and Flips. Since then, he has been involved with over 3,000 deals, including fix-and-flips of single—and multifamily rentals and commercial properties.

He soon realized there was a big difference between just being and running a real business. So, after multiple failures, millions of dollars in mistakes, and personal tragedy, he built a true, scalable REI Business.

Now, he works as the CEO of his REI business and has been operationally removed from the business as whole. He does a high volume of wholesale deals, which are all done virtually. Jerry now spends his time helping others learn the REI Business. He teaches them how to build and scale their businesses and shows them how to master their acquisition skills through training and the REI Sales Academy. He offers in-person and live events year-round.

ABOUT PHIL DUKE JR.

Phil Duke Jr. entered the real estate industry after feeling stuck as a sales rep at a family-owned pest control company. Despite achieving high success as a real estate agent, winning the “Best of the Best” award in 2018 from the Tuscaloosa News, he found himself sacrificing his personal life for his clients. Realizing he had a high-paying job rather than a true business, he decided to start his own real estate company.

Initially, he wore multiple hats as a top producer and business owner, feeling more stuck than ever. Faced with the choice of scaling back or expanding, he chose to go big. Today, Phil operates 10 real estate offices across six states, runs an investing business for flipping properties, and owns a mortgage business and a title company. Additionally, he is a partner in a real estate school. Most of these ventures require minimal weekly involvement, allowing him to enjoy the freedom he sought. Phil now helps others achieve the same freedom, guiding them to get "unstuck for life."

ABOUT MARK LANE

Mark Lane is a real estate investor, entrepreneur, author and trainer. Mark got his start as an entrepreneur in 2010 when he quit his job as a factory worker to jump full-time into real estate investing. Coming from a middle class family with no education, no money and no direction, it was a very tough start, not to mention, it was two years into the Great Recession. With some self-education, lots of reading, and some mentorship, he did his first real estate transaction after nearly eighteen months. The second and third deal came just one month later. That year he went on to complete nearly a dozen deals. Each year following he nearly doubled his business buying and selling hundreds of properties through a combination of Wholesaling and Rehabbing houses. Mark also owns a multi-million dollar rental portfolio consisting of dozens of high quality rental properties and continues buying more each year. Mark’s true passion has turned from real estate investing to wealth building and he has committed himself to helping others take control of their lives, their finances and their futures. He lives in Des Moines, Iowa with his daughter Isabelle.

ABOUT JEREMY MATHIS

Jeremy is the Co-Founder and CEO of Freedom Cash Home Buyers which was a local wholesaling company now operating nationwide. He started his journey together with his brother, Joshua, by taking their neighbor’s trash cans and cleaning yards.

After, he co-founded DoctorCleanRX, a full-service company that provides medical facilities cleaning and maintenance. At 25 years old, he ventured out into real estate with little knowledge but managed to earn $150,000 in his first year. Since then, success keeps coming as he closed over 400 transactions, and completed a real estate development project. He invested in fix-and-flips, long-term Airbnb, and rentals. These investments help him secure a multi-million dollar rental portfolio. Jeremy is a philanthropist, serial entrepreneur, and a father who is very genuine and eager to share his knowledge and blessings, not just in real estate investing and business but also in life in general.

ABOUT TRACY ROYCE

Tracy Royce started in the real estate industry as a loan officer in the early 2000s. Her heart was never in that niche and she saw the writing on the wall, so when a former landlord and real estate investor offered her a position to work for him as an assistant, she jumped at the opportunity. She didn’t realize that would start the path of a decade of working behind the scenes for other real estate investors. While the economy was crashing, the groups she worked alongside were thriving, inventing and she was learning everything from property management, fixing and flipping, resale, short sales, pre-foreclosures, distressed real estate, creative disposition, and a little of everything in between.

“All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow. The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time.” - James Clear

The Flip Empire Show was never about monetization. The show is about genuinely helping people. When this podcast started five years ago, I never thought about reaching 500 episodes. If you would have told me back then that I’d be recording my 500th episode in 2021, I would have said “it’s crazy and there is no way”. So I am thankful to everyone for sticking with me over the past 5 years, whether you are a new listener or have subscribed and been listening for a while.

Kari Lyke was working as a physical therapist and taking her work home. She had no extra time for herself and she was living paycheck to paycheck! She knew that if she wanted to get out of the rat race, she had to get into real estate. Fast forward 6 months later and she completely replaced her salary while working less hours and with a baby in tow! Today, Kari’s been in her business for nearly 8 years and does a variety of creative deal structuring where she puts zero of her money down. Find out how on this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

Kari is getting ready to launch her podcast (The Investor Warrior)! Stay tuned!

Alex knows we sometimes fall into bad negative self-talk habits. Instead of fueling it and convincing yourself that you can’t do something, how can you reframe it and shift the focus into something more proactive? Alex shares his tips on this week’s episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Alex has been masterminding with a couple of entrepreneurs every Wednesday for the last few years.
Sometimes we feel like we’re constrained and unable to live the life we want due to a work project or deadline being “too much.”
It’s a mindset shift of, “Yeah, but,” and switching it to a “yeah, and.”
“That’s not possible right now” is BS! How can you make it possible?
When you ask certain questions and try to get your mind out of negative talk, it gets your brain thinking bigger.
Feed your mind the right way by asking better questions.
Stop making excuses for yourself!
Even the best entrepreneurs with the best mindsets can fall into this negative self-talk trap.

Alex wraps up this masterclass with a quick live Q&A from their Facebook audience. The guys, Dave Payerchin, Rob Swanson, Tim Bratz, and Rod Khleif, answer a couple of questions about how to best get started in multifamily, whether it makes sense to use debt to build your portfolio, and so much more!

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

How many business cycles have the guys currently gone through?
Never speculate and always buy for cashflow.
Barrier to entry on multifamily is tough to overcome. How can you start doing multimillion-dollar deals?
If two investors bought the same quantity of units (one in single-family vs. multifamily) who would come out ahead?
Should you use debt or cash to build your portfolio?
Leverage is key. But it depends on what type of leverage. The guys explain.
Never stop learning.

In today's masterclass, we have four awesome real estate investors. We have Dave Payerchin and Rob Swanson (Single-family) vs. Tim Bratz and Rod Khleif (Multifamily). Which asset class is superior? Single-family or multiple-family? Today, the guys go into a five-round discussion where they break down which asset class is better in areas of Acquisitions, Dispositions, Financing, Management, and Construction! All donations that come from this episode will go to fund We Are Graces, a charity in Guatemala that’s close to Alex’s heart. So who do you think won today’s discussion? Reach out to Alex to let him know!

Key Takeaways:

This is all in the name of charity!
There are going to be five rounds in this masterclass.
Which asset class is superior when it comes to acquisitions?
Multifamily construction is down 42%. Big investors are pulling their money out.
What risks are there in the multifamily space? Rents in multifamily crashed when the financial institutions crashed.
It all comes down to supply and demand.
Instead of saying whether X real estate is good or bad, ask yourself what are the risks associated with your potential investment deal.
It’s the multifamily guys’ turn. Why is multifamily a superior asset class when it comes to acquisitions?
In 2008, Rod lost $50 million in single-family because he was too spread out.
If you buy right, it’s one of the safest asset classes to invest in.
From a risk standpoint, it’s much safer because if you have a house and it’s vacant, it’s 100% vacant.
When it comes to scaling, multifamily is the way to go.
Dave and Rob rebuttal. You can structure a single-family portfolio where the maintenance is on the tenant.
People only live in apartment buildings because they’re just saving up to buy a house.
The first financing that dries up is not single-family, it’s multifamily. Banks think it’s too risky in times of crisis.
Who won this round?
Let’s back up! The guys do a quick intro about who they are and their experience in the industry to give you context.
The next round: Dispositions.
Why is dispositions superior in the multifamily space?
Legacy wealth is built by buying assets and giving safe housing for your tenants. Single-family is too transactional.
You’re buying these assets for lifetime cashflow. Single-family is unfortunately a job.
Why is dispositions superior in the single-family space?
Where are you in your journey? Both of our multifamily investors started in the single-family space.
If things get bad, who can you sell your multi-million dollar apartment building to in a bind?
The multifamily guys’ rebuttal. Multifamily cash flows extremely well.
The next round: Financing. The single-family guys weigh in.
It’s far safer for the investor to raise capital on a single-family home.
Remember, big money is pulling out of multifamily. The market has already started to change.
When Wall Street stops buying the debt, everything crashes.
The multifamily guys give a rebuttal.
Remember it’s a team sport in this business.
Tim got his portfolio of $330 million of property in under five years. He’s only personally invested $125,000 of his personal money into his portfolio.
A private lender is more at risk than in a syndication.
No matter what asset class you choose, you can get burned on a deal if you are not careful.
The next round: Management. Rod and Tim go first.
It took all day of driving to get all your single-family homes fixed. All. Day. Multifamily? You can hire staff and have them handle it all in one go. Logistically, it’s a no brainer.
You have to manage the management company, but that’s only an hour a week.
Multifamily management companies know their stuff. They don’t mess around. Single-family? It’s usually a disorganized realtor.
The single-family guys weigh in about management.
People don’t know what rent you charge in a single-family because everyone is so scattered.
You can standardize your construction work so that every paint color, repair, etc is the same.
Government tends to go after the big guys in regulations than the little ones.
Single-family management, you pay 0% and get no phone calls.
The multifamily guys’ rebuttal.
Final round: Construction. The single-family guys weigh in first.
If you get a surprise natural disaster like Katrina, your multifamily construction budget isn’t just six figures, it’s multiple seven figures.
Maintenance guys that work on multifamily tend to be more skilled than single-family maintenance guys because they’ve seen every possible scenario.
Multifamily guys weigh in on construction.
They can do the exact same thing single-family guys can do but at scale.
Single-family guys’ rebuttal.
Remember this is all to raise money for charity! So please donate.
Final bonus round! When it comes to building wealth, which asset class is better for the masses? Multifamily kicks it off.

Brett Iwanowicz was skeptical about joining a high-level mastermind at first because he was in a one-sided business partnership for seven years and that relationship really burned him when it was over. However, after being part of ASCEND, Brett finally feels like he’s home. Learn more about Brett and his story on this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

Brett always wanted to be on Alex’s show and doesn’t understand why he just didn’t ask him.
When Brett first started his entrepreneurial journey, he had to shift his mindset.
When it comes to working with someone, you want to serve them, not yourself.
Alex never had a sales process until he went through John Martinez’s Real Estate Investors Sales Academy.
What was Brett doing before real estate?
Brett’s first real estate partnership was very one-sided. It lasted for seven years and it made Brett feel very defeated once it was over.
Brett grew up without a father and he put a lot of energy into that partnership as he was hoping he could fill that gap.
It made Brett distrust partnerships after that. Even after joining Lifeonaire, it still took Brett a long time to realize the people in the community were for real.
Brett had to work hard to find his tribe. You really have to work hard to find your people.
When Brett became committed to his personal development, he was committed and nothing was going to stop him. He was more committed to his success than the fear of failure.
There is always purpose in pain.
If you have personal issues, they’re affecting your life, your happiness, and your business!
Why does Brett love ASCEND?
By Brett being vulnerable, people would come up to him and tell him how they needed to hear his message.
No matter how difficult something is, you can still have fun. Life’s a journey!
Most people miss the opportunity to enjoy what they’re doing right now.
When you have the strong desire to succeed, it’s incredible what happens next.
Want to find your strengths? Ask people around you what they think they are. It’s insightful and you might not like what you hear!

If you’re not following up, you’re flushing money down the toilet.
The best follow-up system is a combination of leveraging technology and having personal human touch.
Alex has a 27-week email autoresponder series that has revived conversations with previously “dead” leads.
Life changes and you never know where someone might be in their life. Keep following up!

Don’t always assume systems and processes are always working for you.
TIP: Take advantage of holidays, people’s birthdays, or any sort of special event/news event.
Sometimes the follow-up can just be about seeing how they’re doing.
Connect with your customers on social media!

Matt Fullerton has been on the podcast before and is ready to share his knowledge on what he’s been doing differently this year! Lots has changed due to the pandemic and Matt doesn’t see wholesale being as lively as it once was. He shares his thoughts on doubling down on your strengths, diversifying your business’s services, and so much more on this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

Matt closed nearly $1m in deals in 2019. Where is his business today?
When COVID surprised us all, Matt saw a lot of hard money lenders going under.
What percentage of Matt’s deals are wholesale vs. fix and flip?
Matt really resisted doing fix and flip because they know they were incredibly good at wholesale.
Is Wholesaling Dying? Matt shares his thoughts.
Why did Matt decide not to go into multi-family?
Mat would rather be really good at one thing than be ok at 5 other things.
Deals have been harder to come by because of the market prices, so Matt has really relied on his partnerships.
About 20% of Matt’s deals are coming from referrals.
TIP: Alex pays people a $5,000 referral fee.
What’s Matt’s deal criteria and what he decides to take down/pursue?
Just because you can make a lot of money, doesn’t mean you should mess with it if there’s a large headache factor involved.
Alex doesn’t know too many investors who are making six-figures in their flips. How is Matt making such high-profit margins?
If you’re going to fix and flip, make sure you have healthy cash reserves.
The biggest lesson Matt learned this year is to be adaptable.
Why does Matt love the ASCEND mastermind?
Sometimes you have to delay gratification to get to your dreams.

Don Costa was managing a 16 person team before COVID hit. He's now running his team incredibly lean and he’s learned a couple of things along the way. He shares how to build a strong business foundation, what to do when you have a real winner on your team to keep them engaged, and so much more on this week’s episode!

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Since COVID, Don has chosen to downsize his team (and get lean!)
Don asked himself, how can he and his team make more money than what they’re already doing.
It makes no difference what your gross rev is when your margins are tiny.
When you’re in growth mode, how much money are you really keeping?
What does it mean to have a strong business foundation?
If you have a buy box, stick to it! Don’t try to put a square peg through a round hole.
How did Don’s business get so bloated?
Business is meant to serve you and others. This is why you must have a plan.
Don knows that if he is bored, he is dangerous. He will always be working and doesn’t plan on ever retiring.
What is Don doing to get more business through his door with less staff?
Do not stop following up until the seller tells you to kick rocks.
The best acquisition managers have a very small life span. You get a good 12-24 months before they move on.
You have to hold your team accountable and sometimes that means listening to sales calls.
By hiring more people, you can actually end up starving your top-player out. And guess what happens when you starve a winner?
How is Don keeping his team sharp and up-to-date?
If you don’t have a good disposition’s person in your corner, you’re doing all of this wrong.
If you’re not training your team in marketing and sales, you’re doing yourself a disservice as well.
Prepare for the worst, but hope for the best.

Chris Michaels is an Entrepreneur and a direct response marketing ninja! He’s not a real estate investor, and that’s actually a good thing. When it comes to marketing, many real estate investors operate in the stone age. This is why Alex has a guy like Chris on to bring an outside perspective on marketing, and how we can reach our ideal prospects to maximize our ROI.

Key Takeaways:

Marketing and sales will always be at the heart of any business. No matter what your industry.
Real estate investors are behind the times when it comes to marketing.
Chris isn’t in real estate, and that’s actually a good thing.
How did Chris get started in marketing?
Chris’s first ad on Facebook was a total flop.
If you understand sales and marketing, you’ll never starve.
How did Chris get started in the real estate space?
Believe it or not, social media and marketing are easier than you think it might be. We tend to overcomplicate things.
People associate trust with consistency.
People can be too impatient when it comes to their ads and don’t give it enough time to just “sit” and see if it works.
When you serve people on a powerful level, they’ll naturally trust you, and even better, they’ll tell other people about it too.
How many people would get in line when they don’t even know what it is for?
People follow the leader even when it doesn’t make sense to.
How do real estate investors generate more social proof?
Take your customers through a journey that makes them truly feel the experience. Emotions drive sales.
How do you discover who is a motivated seller vs. not?
Marketing takes constant experimentation and tweaks. It takes time to figure out the perfect formula.
It’s so important to figure out who your avatar is and cater to them in your marketing materials.
Alex loves Chris’s products.
Nobody can tell your story as well as you can tell your story.

This is part 5 of a 5-part video series with Trevor Mauch on how to leverage your brand and build more credibility. Trevor wants you to get out of that “hamster wheel” marketing and build an evergreen marketing pipeline that will work for you for years to come. He shows you how in this final episode.

Key Takeaways:

We’re in the age of credibility right now.
There is a right way and a wrong way to structure a testimonial.
If you’re going to make a claim on your marketing, you have to back it up with credibility.
If you don’t focus on credibility, you are losing deals, which means you’re losing cash!
There is a right and a wrong way to ask for a testimonial.
Trevor has never actually asked a client for a testimonial.
The problem with a lot of testimonials is that they are too vague and don’t even answer your potential customer’s objections.
We are in the age of content, so you have to structure your content correctly if you want to rank well on Google.
Alex is a happy, happy customer of Carrot!

This is Part 3 of a 5-part video series with Trevor Mauch on how to leverage your brand and build more credibility. Trevor breaks down how to tweak your website so that it performs, adds credibility, and gets people converting!

Key Takeaways:

Focus on building mini-sites and not necessarily just a landing page.
There needs to be a clear call to action and a big form on your page.
Next, you will need content that will answer your customer’s questions right away.
Trevor explains what a ‘core page’ is.
If you tighten your page down, you’re going to start winning extra deals.
How many leads and deals are you okay with losing this year from underperformance?
How does your service work? Very important to answer this question for the seller!
How is this different from a real estate agent? Another question you should be answering on your website!
You want your customers to be pre-sold before they ever hop on a call with you.
Trevor breaks down how a customer typically finds a wholesaler.
Tune in next week for Part 4!

Alex was a panel guest on the Investor Mindset Podcast with Steven Pesavento. Alex is joined by Don Costa and Brent Daniels as they discuss what they’ve been up to in their respective markets. When COVID-19 hit, everyone had to change up their business models a little bit. In this episode, the guys offer tips on connecting with your buyer list, ways to reignite your seller list, and how to close deals over the phone.

Key Takeaways:

Brent, Don, and Alex give a quick intro about themselves and their backgrounds.
Now that COVID-19 has hit, what changes have the guys done in their business to stay on top?
Brent has been pouring more into his team by letting them know that they are the decision-makers, so running things by him to get the green light is not necessary; They’ve been up 25% on their goals!
Alex and his team controlled the narrative early on. What this meant for Alex was to jump in right away to help his team and get back on the phones!
Brent changed up his text messaging team and he got four deals right away. He thinks the previous team got too settled in, so shaking things up can be a good thing all-around. Find out exactly how he did this in this episode.
If someone says "No" they don’t want to sell and it’s a property in rough condition, Brent recommends sending in a blind offer anyway.
Reignite your database again, even if they were previous ‘No's’. Shake the tree a bit, you never know, people’s circumstances might have changed. Life can move pretty fast.
The most expensive lead is the one you don’t have. Tap into your existing database/list. So much gold is in there.
The nine-word email has a crazy response rate because it’s easy to look at!
Are you in a smaller market? You’re at an advantage!
What have been the key differences when it comes to making offers on the phone vs. in person?
FaceTime your sellers if you have to… it works!
Prequalify your leads by the condition of the property, timeline to sell, motivation, and price. When you know these four things, you will be able to convert these over the phone.
Don’t accept the surface level answers as to why people are looking to sell. Go three to four questions deeper to ultimately find out what’s the real reason someone picked up the phone and called you.
Brent shares how he keeps himself hungry and how he best balances his bank accounts.
If you grow a little bit every single day, you’ll be a completely different person in six to 12 months.
Don shares his advice on how to make the most out of this pandemic.
Have a vision for your life and then create a business that will support that vision.
There is a healthy fear, and then, there’s fear that kills dreams.
No matter what, you have to be true to who you are.

“Buyers are still buying. We probably ended up losing out on some deals because we were going a bit too conservative.”

“If you’ve got your own database, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be contacting those people. They’re definitely more likely to sell than some random owner-occupant list you got.”

“Make sure you’re prequalifying all your leads — condition of the property, timeline to sell, motivation, and the price. You find out those four things on every single lead, you’re going to be able to convert those over the phone.”

Adrian Nez is an Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor, and Content Marketer that loves to share tips on how to get your message out! Business is tough, which is why Adrian is an open book when it comes to his knowledge of Content Marketing. Content Marketing can seem very intimidating for some, and even putting yourself out there on camera to talk about what you do can be scary, but if you start small and practice, you will get better and better over time.

Key Takeaways:

Let’s talk about Content Marketing!
Adrian is so happy he’s in the ASCEND Mastermind & Coaching community because he’s surrounded by the right people and he is able to be himself.
Who is Adrian and what does he do?
Why is Content Marketing important?
When it comes to writing good content, you have to look at it like you’re empowering people, not trying to sell them something.

How can you define your customer avatar?
Define your niche.
Alex breaks down his deals and what types of metrics they track.
If someone is just getting started, what should they focus on first?
Instead of throwing a bunch of industry jargon at your customer, speak on their terms!
Sometimes, people don’t really know what you “really” do. So, break it down, explain it in a video.
It’s your job to educate your customer.
People are very skeptical about what wholesalers do. They think it’s a scam. So, the more education you can provide, the better it is.
Learn how to think backward. Think from the customer’s point of view.
Marketers are forced to dig in and start from the basics.
Get specific, people pay more attention to the specifics when looking at an ad.
The goal of your industry is to talk to as many people as possible, even if they’re not deals.
Adrian asks a specific question in his box about concerns his potential might have with working with him. It gives him a ton of insight as to what people are concerned about.
Got a roadblock happening in your life right now? Well, you’re an entrepreneur, find a way to make it happen!

Armando Cruz & Juan Carlos Bernal are on this week’s Master Class to share their thoughts around mindset, adapting to changes, and facing the unknown. Armando is a physical therapist and runs his own clinic in Miami and Juan Carlos is an executive coach that helps businesses optimize their business processes. Although they’re not in the real estate industry, their advice and wisdom have lifted Alex out of so many challenges throughout his career and he knows whatever obstacle you’re facing right now, these two men can help you through it.

Key Takeaways:

Armando & Juan Carlos are not in the real estate industry but are successful entrepreneurs in their own right.
Who is Armando? He runs a fitness and physical therapy studio in Miami.
Who is Juan Carlos? He is an executive coach that helps with business processes and marketing.
When you have uncertainty, stress goes up and confidence goes down, and with that, taking action also goes down.
This is life! Don’t wait for it to go back to the same way. It will never be the same. This is a new reality.
Don’t wait for ‘the right time.’ Do it now. What are you looking for now?
This is a great time to hit the reset button and be productive!
Business owners are confused. They are spinning the wheels because they’re not 100% sure what direction to go in.
What’s good about this situation and where’s the opportunity?
Are you bored?
Armando has three children he has to homeschool and he’s also trying to figure out what to do within his own business. He’s packed.
Armando shares how he has been able to pivot his business during this time.
There are seven healths in this world: Emotional, Spiritual, Physical, Relationship, Financial, Environmental, and Adventure health.
How do you measure where you are in each of these aspects of health?
Be careful not to instill fear in your kids.
There is so much uncertainty that Juan Carlos has opened up his services for free to help people in need.
Don’t let your fears get out of control.
People are very concerned about finances. What can they do?
Change your ‘I can’t’ phrase to ‘I don’t want to’ and see how you feel about that statement after.
How can you serve your clients today? Be in touch with their needs. They’re different today than they were before the pandemic.
Focus on things no one can take away from you, like your family. Then focus on the things that can be taken away and find solutions to it.
Be willing to sacrifice and take a few steps back to get yourself financially healthy.
Something Juan Carlos can always count on is God.
You have a platform! Get out and share your story.
Doors open up when you have the right intentions. Giving back makes a world of difference in your mental state.
You can’t pour from an empty cup. Put your oxygen mask on first.
How do you pursue sales differently during this time?
Armando shares an example of why it’s important to ask your audience and not ‘assume.’
Ask and then start serving in that capacity.
When things start getting back to "normal", how do you balance what you ‘used to do’ vs. the changes you’ve made?
Final words of advice from Armando and Juan Carlos on the future and what to look forward to.
How do Armando and Juan Carlos help others?

RJ Bates III grew his business incredibly rapidly, but it cost him nearly everything. He would spend 10+ hours a day on the phone trying to put out fires instead of actually enjoying the fruits of his labor. He had to take a step back and reevaluate what was most important to him. He shares his story and how he was able to scale down to live a more fulfilling and profitable life.

Key Takeaways:

RJ scaled his business very quickly but he wasn’t making money and he wasn’t happy. He had to go back to the drawing board to design a better life.
How did RJ get into wholesaling?
As RJ started to get more into it, he realized it’s about creating generational wealth and began acquiring assets.
During this time, RJ grew his business to 74 employees, but they weren’t niche anymore and they weren’t making any money.
RJ is so grateful that his business partner trusted him to pivot the business and get them back on track.
How can people overcome fear and get themselves out of the hole they might be in? RJ shares his advice.
There’s plenty of opportunity out there right now.
Despite having a business for 3-4+ years now, RJ is still using ‘beginner’ tactics to get his business up and going.
We need to be real with the challenges we have.
Covid-19 has brought us closer together.
Comparison is the thief of joy. Don’t compare yourself to other people
Everything that could go wrong in 2019, did go wrong for RJ. RJ opens up on what happened.
RJ grew his business at such a rapid rate that everything else was falling apart at the seams.
Listening to the advice of his peers, he realized he needed to become much, much leaner.
Scale to be better, don’t scale to be bigger.
RJ is in the process of liquidating his assets to become more lean.
Remember, you’re on your own unique journey. Don’t try to replicate someone else’s success.
RJ is so grateful with his relationship with God and putting his trust in Him.
RJ shares the impact masterminds have had on his business.

Aaron “Canadian Assassin” Moore is one of Toronto’s top homebuyers and is actually blowing his competition completely out of the water. This is because he is ruthless about taking care of his sellers and goes above and beyond what is ‘standard procedure.’ You can hear in Aaron’s voice how meaningful it is to do the work that he is doing because he ends up getting a bit emotional on the call on why it’s so important to take care of these people in a tough situation. Aaron also shares how he structures his deals to help the sellers, how he has built his wealth, finds his sellers, and so much more on this Ascend mastermind coaching call!

Key Takeaways:

Aaron’s majority of wealth came from holding onto assets.
Toronto’s real estate markets are crazy, sometimes leading to six-figure profit deals!
How does Aaron add value where the seller is willing to overpay by $50K to $75K?
How does Aaron run his numbers and know the value potential of a house?
Aaron has been very intentional in destroying his competition. That’s where the nickname Canadian Assassin comes from. The reason why is because 99% of his competitors don’t care about their homeowners!
Aaron gets emotional thinking about the homeowners who are in tough situations.
Aaron gives his sellers a loan before closing. How does he structure this correctly?
Aaron could make more money structuring deals differently, but he feels better about helping the people in tough situations out.
How has Aaron’s team structured today?
You want to hire a salesman that doesn’t want their income to be capped. A salaried salesman is a bad sign.
How does Aaron find his deals and buyers?
How has Aaron adapted to the COVID-19 crisis?
Aaron is keeping some cash reserves on hand because things are uncertain.
What’s the biggest value for Aaron being in a mastermind group like Ascend?

Todd Foster has been in real estate since 2010 and was able to leave his full-time job in 2012. He learned under Ron LeGrand, and is a master at creative lease options (and setting up deal structures with pretty houses in good neighborhoods). He believes there’s so much more opportunity in this space than in the distressed housing space. He shares a couple of case studies on how creative leasing can be an amazing avenue for you and your business. They also answer a ton of listener questions at the end!

Key Takeaways:

Todd specializes in something called the ‘Pre-house buying model.’
Can’t get the property at the right price? No deal? Not necessarily true.
Todd shares a bit on how he got into real estate. He was able to leave his job in 2012 and hasn’t looked back since!
There are more pretty homes available than there are distressed homes and that means you can do a lot more with it!
Why does Todd love to use lease options to sell his property?
You don’t need money or credit to get started in these deals.
One of Todd’s tenants had a really hard time finding someone to rent to her because of a foreclosure ding on her credit.
Todd showcases some case studies on how now you can structure your deals creatively.
The sellers couldn’t get their house sold for 320K, but Todd was able to sell it at 329K because they provided a lease with an option to buy.
What percentage of tenant buyers actually end up buying the property?
Todd shares another case study to help the seller pay off his loan while still owning the property.
Does Todd use a loan servicing company?
It’s important to be flexible with the tenant buyer based on their financial situation.
How does Todd navigate the ‘due on sale’ clause?
Todd uses land trusts to help protect the seller.
The next case study is about how to navigate an over leveraged home.
A tenant-buyer paid Todd to take over a contract that was 17K underwater. How was this a good deal for the buyer?
How do you talk to the seller about doing these types of deals?
Has a seller tried to void the agreement later on?
How is it different from vetting a tenant-buyer vs. a regular buyer?
The tenant-buyer is the one who would ultimately need to qualify for the loan to purchase the home.
It’s important the seller has a full disclosure on what’s happening with their home. Communication is key.
Ethnically, Todd has to make sure that people will be able to cash out in the homes they're going into. He’s not going to set people up to fail.
How does Todd find homes that have expired listings?
How does Todd handle the release of the deed without triggering due on sale?
How does Todd handle a major repair on the property?
Remember it’s quality over quantity. Todd shares how he structures his team.

“The biggest thing we’re looking for is sellers that are willing to provide us time to pay them off in full. Time is what makes these deals work”

“You have to do the right thing by the buyer. If they just filed for bankruptcy, they’re going to need a couple of years to get qualified, so putting them on a one lease option is setting them up for failure.”

“We ask questions to the seller and to really see if they’re open to some kind of creative deal. If they want to do it, great.”

This is Mark Evans DM's third time on the show! He started his virtual business back in 05 because he knew he couldn’t be a ‘mule’ for the rest of his life. He is out with a new bestselling book entitled, Magician Vs. Mule, where he helps readers go from the hustle and grind 24/7 to a freedom lifestyle that allows you to spend more time doing what YOU want to do!

Key Takeaways:

Mark’s leadership is being challenged right now due to the pandemic, but that’s a good thing.
Mark runs several Virtual Businesses.
How can you do more with what God has given me? It’s all about having the right frame of mind and asking the right questions.
Why is self-awareness so important?
Mark has always been very intentional with his gift giving. Longevity plays a huge part in being a good business owner.
Giving is the best gift in the world.
How does Mark incorporate conscious giving into his life?
What is the Magician Vs. Mule book about?
Mules are afraid of asking for help. They can never stop and find freedom.
How can you transition from being a mule to a magician?
Would you fire yourself if you worked for yourself?
It either fits in a box or it doesn’t. Mark doesn’t want to stress out on trying to spend hours and hours on custom solutions when they can just be plug-n-play.
Magicians have a purpose with everything that they do.
You’re the common thread to every problem and solution.
How can people be more intentional with connecting and collaborating with others?
If you say yes to something, you’re saying no to something else.
It’s all about the journey, not the destination.
Mark has made a conscious effort to lose weight!
Your kids are watching you, so be the example and set the standard.
Mark is the author of 10 books. How does he do it?
So many people put so much time and effort into CRMs and yet they change it 6 months later! Doesn’t make sense. It’s not the CRM that’s going to make you successful.
How do you keep a mule from kicking? By keeping them busy or moving forward.
A magician slows down this process, takes a step back, and streamlines it.
Grab a copy of "Magician vs Mule". 100% of the book’s proceeds go to charity!!!

Joe McCall has flipped over 100 deals and helped his students flip 100’s more. He started his podcast back in 2011 to help investors become masters in their craft. On today’s episode, Joe shares what investors should be focusing on as we go through this pandemic. There’s a lot going on, but it’s important to control what you can control. Dig deep into your network and start making connections. There is a lot of opportunity out there in this uncertain time.

Key Takeaways:

Connect with Alex on social media! He has a ton of content for you!
- Facebook
- Instagram
- YouTube
- LinkedIn
Alex almost didn’t launch his show because he was afraid that the time for real estate investing podcasts was over in 2016. Joe also thought the same thing in 2011!
The internal stories you tell yourself can (and will) shape your future.
Joe has completely unplugged from the news. Why worry about something you can’t control?
The fear sells! That’s why the news is going crazy.
Sit back, relax, take a deep breath, and take action! Don't act out of fear, but from a place of Faith!
Even if you’re not religious, read the Gospel of John. Some powerful lessons there.
Joe has been getting the news from his other friends who have boots on the group and are having deals fall through.
The worst mistake people can make right now is quit their mastermind or group coaching programs that they’re in.
Joe’s family is looking to him for leadership and it hasn’t always been easy.
It’s important to create instead of consume when you’re locked in quarantine.
You have to be a leader for your kids right now. Stand up and be strong for them.
It’s easy to fall into the trap that our sellers are our customers. Not the case. Our buyers are our true customers.
Focus on Buyers! We have shifted from a sellers market to a buyers market.
Look at who’s buying properties in the last 30 days.
Call your realtors! See what they have to say.
Tip: Call your network and ask them two questions: Do you have a house you’re looking to sell? And, Are you looking to buy a house right now? Chances are you know someone who will answer at least yes to one of those questions! Connect the two and, boom, you’ve already made your commission.
By having relationships with your buyers, Joe went from 3-4 deals a month to 3-4 deals a week.
If you’re a realtor, think about becoming a tenant leasing agent for investors. Joe believes this is a big opportunity!
Bandit Signs still work really well (for buyers).
Be proactive in your sales training. Always sharpen that axe because you will need it. Sales is the million dollar skill.
You need to know how to close deals over the phone, especially now.
Tip: Send offers in the mail!

It’s time to adapt to this new market. We are in a buyer’s market, which means new deals are easier to acquire, but that also means they’re harder to sell. Now is the perfect time to open up your network and find strategic partnerships and people who are willing to help, collaborate, and bring you up.

Key Takeaways:

It’s been a month since the pandemic flipped our world around, and we need to adapt accordingly.
Protect your brain from negativity. Make sure you’re in the right inner circle to boost you up.
Alex and his team had their quarterly meeting and they discussed shifting their business model.
Alex’s company created a private Facebook group for active South Florida investors.
Think about where you can strategically add value and enhance other people’s lives.
Now is the perfect time to develop joint ventures!
Get creative and think about new ways you can get some deals coming in.
Don’t be stuck to the typical ways of doing deals.
You might be in quarantine, but just stay positive and keep moving forward!
Find the right community that is going to uplift you.

Rob Swanson is a returning guest from episodes 14 and 92, and he's back to bring the heat! Rob has been through several market downturns and understands market trends very well. He was able to see the writing on the wall before the 2008 housing crash and was able to adjust his portfolio, and profit from it! Today, he shares his insights on what we can expect during this pandemic and how new and seasoned investors can navigate these murky waters.

Key Takeaways:

Rob saw the writing on the wall when the 2008 housing crash hit.
What did Rob see back then that made him want to get out of the real estate market temporarily (or at least make smarter financial moves)?
Rob started seeing prices flattening out.
How can someone track inventory levels?
What was Rob’s $30-million mistake?
Rob believes he should have just bought more property and sat on it while the marketing was correcting.
How can people tell if we’re in a boom/bust market vs. a pricing stable market?
If someone doesn’t have any experience in the real estate market, is now the right time to start?
Get in the industry and learn. Be a sponge.
Always ask yourself, ‘How do I make money with this deal?’ If you answer that question, you will be successful.
You either buy for short term/quick flip gains or you buy for long-term cash flow gains.
Rob developed a long-term investment strategy because he saw what happened during the last three housing market crashes. Rents on single-family homes always went up!
Every single market right now is propped up with debt. From the housing to student loans, to oil, etc. Everything is with debt! Much more than we saw in 2008.
What should people be focusing on currently if they’re in a boom/bust market?
What should people focus on if they’re in a stable pricing market?
How can real estate investors take advantage of Rob’s program, Freedomsoft?
Never forget… Cash Flow is king!

Ryan “Rotty” Garcilazo has been a rehabber for the last 15 years and has a construction consulting business to help seasoned investors better understand the rehabbing side of the business. So many investors get burned by bad contractors because they don’t know what they’re doing. Before you step foot into the rehab game, get educated! Ryan shares what you need to look out for in this week’s episode.

Key Takeaways:

How did Ryan first get started in real estate?
What did Ryan wish he knew about sooner when he started rehabbing?
What mistakes do investors make when trying to get into construction?
There are three pillars to the game: real estate, investing, and construction.
You always have to self-educate yourself about the business side of things while running your own business.
At the end of the day, you’re running a business!
How does Ryan find the right, reliable contractors?
You can’t hire contractors if you don’t know what you’re trying to hire for.
You have to learn the industry because if you don’t know what your general contractor is supposed to be doing, how much and how long it could take, you don’t know if you’ve got a good guy or not until it’s too late.
Before you hire anybody, understand what they do.
How can you keep your contractor fed enough so that they don’t go elsewhere?
It’s about having honest conversations with the contractor, but you can’t do that if you don’t know what you’re talking about.
Construction is going to hurt for a while right now. If you have a contractor you like, have an open conversation with them about the uncertain future.
Ryan shares his thoughts on how to future-proof yourself during the coronavirus pandemic.
Materials are going to go up in price --- Ryan outlines what you should do!
How should investors be looking at acquisitions?
Make sure you’re operating out of a place of faith, not a place of fear.
Interested in getting into rehabbing? Ryan has a boot camp for you!
When you’re an entrepreneur, you have to figure it out when times are tough.
What’s one piece of advice Ryan would give his younger self?

Alex understands that things are going a bit crazy right now and the news is creating a lot of panic and fear. As a leader, this is your moment to step up and lead. Be an example for your family, friends, team, and even community. Don’t be cocky that you’ll ‘make tons of money’, people right now are suffering and they are getting affected. Show compassion in this difficult time and help out where you can.

Key Takeaways:

We are in the middle of uncertainty right now.
Alex was attending a mastermind and he didn’t know the full impact the coronavirus would really have until now.
Sports leagues were cancelling events to protect everyone’s safety.
How is a potential recession going to impact our community?
Alex has personally experienced the 2008 market crash.
Remember this will pass!
Sit back for right now and survey the landscape.
Don’t get cocky. You might have the opportunity to make money, but people are suffering from this.
How will hourly workers pay their rent? Your cash flow has the ability to be affected too.
This is an opportunity to lead. What example are you setting
Disconnect from the news. It’s good to be informed, but it’s bad to be in fear.
God has a plan.
It’s okay to admit that you don’t have the answers!
Look forward and do not operate out of fear.
Alex will be here to help you through this.
The darker the storm, the brighter the rainbow.

Key Takeaways:

Between the years 2013-2016, Alex and his team were closing 80% of their deals off of the MLS.
Caleb does about 200 transactions a year on the retail side.
How can you best leverage the MLS in today’s market?
Caleb buys 2-3 times a month off the MLS.
How does Caleb’s system work?
Be careful! You don’t want to send out 2,000 offers in one day. Your phones will be blowing up.
You got to be proactive when sending out your offers. Caleb does 50 a day.
Caleb shares his process from start to finish.
Caleb prefers buying houses built in 2015 or older.
Once Caleb sends the offers, what’s the next step after that?
Even though you’re sending offers on the MLS, take the time to build a long-term relationship with the listing agent. You never know, you could be the first one they tell about a hot new deal coming up.

Google street view is your friend!

Alex offers some tips on what your competition is most likely not doing! These small changes have made big things happen in Alex’s business. It involves a little bit of creativity, flexibility, and having an open mind, but it works! Find out how Alex maximizes his contract deals and potential leads to the fullest.

Key Takeaways:

Alex is currently at the ASCEND Mastermind Retreat.
When you make offers to sellers, consider removing the contingencies, like inspection days, etc.
Have an expiration date on your contract. It's important to create a sense of urgency.
If you know it’s a deal, don’t be shy to put a solid earnest money deposit down.
Transparency is key here.
Remember to check with your local attorney before offering any type of referral fees.
If you are going to make $20–$30K on a deal you normally wouldn’t have gotten, why not make them a JV partner in the deal?
If you have a contracted property and the property is vacant, throw a bandit sign in front of the house (with the sellers permission of course)!
You don’t lose anything by asking! Ask your potential sellers if they’d be open to a sign in front of their house.
We get bombarded by so much info on a daily basis. Just pick one thing and implement it.

Shaun McCloskey is a real estate investor, author, and coach. He helps thousands of real estate investors optimize their business and get their business up and running. In today’s episode, Shaun explains why it is critical to have a Business Vision, and exactly how to create an empowering one!

Key Takeaways:

You have to start with a vision for your business.
Shaun likes to work/use his goals in four-month chunks.
You should look at your vision, business plan, goals, and tasks like you look at your bullseye target. Each ring has a purpose.
You can’t hit your goals unless you know what your business plan is. The same applies to your business vision.
Feel like you’re spreading yourself too thin? This won’t happen if you have a vision!
Richard Branson has seven-plus businesses, but he didn’t start them all at the same time AND he isn’t the operator of each of those businesses. Just the owner.
What do you NOT want in your life?
Shaun asks Alex what he wants in life?
It’s important to have your values and the characteristics of who you want to work with.
Dare to dream. Suspend reality for just a moment and open your mind.
Inner work is hard work!
Step one is to write down your vision. Write it down! Don’t have it stuck in your head.
Be careful who your role models are. It could mean losing everything you’re striving to protect (family).
You can have any type of business you want. So why settle?
Ever feel like you have to modify your lifestyle for your customers? Because you’re afraid they will leave you?
What is Ikigai?
Know yourself. Really know yourself and live your true self while scaling your business.
What is your genius zone? What makes you happy?
A good coach gets you moving forward.
Things are so much easier when you have clarity in your life.
It’s important to identify where you are right now. Do this today!
Build a map on how you can get from where you are today to where you want to be.
What can you expect at Shaun’s upcoming workshop on March 12th? HINT: You will leave Shaun’s workshop with a clear Vision for your Business, and an actionable plan.

Terry Royce got his start in real estate in 2008. He has closed over 500 deals and just last year he closed 100 deals alone with his team. It took some time to get there. He was the typical entrepreneur that worked 60-80 hours a week and just was too stubborn to learn from his mistakes. It finally took his business partner to put on the breaks and hire team members out so that they could stop wearing all the hats. That’s when it clicked for Terry and he was determined to take it one step further and be able to freely travel while making an income!

Key Takeaways:

What does Terry’s business look like today?
Over the last few years, Terry and his team have done around 90 to 110 deals. 70 to 80% of that wholesale.
Terry was stubborn during the first few years and felt like he had to wear all the hats at once, and that wasn’t scalable.
What were some of the early lessons that Terry learned?
Terry would work 60 to 80 hours a week and was tired of missing all the important life events.
When you start to have a system in place, you start to realize what you’ve been missing out on all these years.
Don’t just do an 80/20 analysis on yourself, but ask your team members to do the same.
Don’t be so naive to think you’re the only one who can do something!
Your employees are never going to have the same standards as you, the business owner, but the goal is to help teach them to see what you see.
Can’t get your team to be accountable? Hire people that hold themselves accountable.
What does it really take to manage a team?
You can’t treat everyone the same and put everyone in the same box. What motivates your people?
Embrace your challenges. Don’t hide them.
What do you want? A lot of what you want might seem simple, but it’s important to verbalize this and actually figure out how to do it.
Give yourself space to really, really dig into what you really want. Don’t be influenced by outside perspectives. That’s not what you want!
The inner work is hard to do, but when you do it, it will help set you free
Remember, you cannot BS your way through the inner work!

Alex had a one-on-one coaching session with one of his ASCEND mastermind members who is having challenges with a new hire (and he has a gut feeling that it's not going to work out). Sometimes you need to listen to that gut feeling but it’s also just as important to make sure you set your team up for success. Alex shares some of his takeaways from that call in this week's Q&A podcast episode.

Key Takeaways:

When it comes to appointments to contracts conversion, Alex likes to see 30% conversions.
It can be so easy to make excuses for your staff members.
Do you hold your team members accountable?
You have to put people in a position to succeed.
Is your acquisition person not succeeding? Start Going on appointments with them.
Devote time to training your new hires daily. Make sure they have the tools they need to succeed.
This new hire didn’t want a commission structure! That’s a red flag in a sales role.

Alex is hitting a big milestone in his age this year. The big 40! This year, he is ultra-focused on making it the best year yet. He is working towards becoming a better person and is focused on enjoying the journey more than the end result. You have a much bigger and better positive effect on your community when you focus on who you are and what you can become.

Key Takeaways:

Alex is turning 40 this year and is determined to make it his best year yet.
Alex is so focused on who he is becoming this year and isn’t too hung up on the end result.
Make sure all of your goals are SMART. Specific. Measurable. Achievable. Relevant, Time-bound.
Instead of focusing on the number of deals closed, focus on how many people you should reach out to, instead.
You can have a much more positive ripple effect by focusing on becoming a better person.
Once you get that luxury car you’ve worked so hard for, it wears off after a month or so.
When you’re going through tough challenges, take a step back and ask yourself what you’re meant to learn from this experience.
Alex realizes he could be so much better health-wise in his life, but he’s been playing it average. This year he has a goal to get down to 10% body fat.

Rob Nickell is the Founder of Rocket Station, an outsourcing firm that helps you find the right VA for your business and structure. So many companies hire VAs or staff without even a job description! This is just setting a capable employee up for failure. You have to spend time creating SOPs so that everyone involved knows how to do their job and stay accountable.

Key Takeaways:

When Alex thinks about hiring VAs, Rob is the first person that comes to mind.
Rob and his team are trying over 80 people a month.
There are so many hats you have to wear when you’re a business owner, but some things require you to have certain skills, and those might not be your biggest strengths.
Everyone Rob knows who is successful in real estate uses a VA in some form to do the day-to-day tasks.
Every entrepreneur has had some battle scars when it comes to hiring competent people.
You can’t hire someone if you don’t have documented SOPs or even a detailed job description. Before you hire, get your ducks in a row first.
Document your process first.
Second, create a detailed job description.
You only have to create these documents one time!
The key to keeping sane is through outsourcing!
VAs can do about 80% of your day-to-day. So learn (in this episode) what you need to be focused on…
VAs can really do very high, high-level stuff. Rob shares some examples of what his clients are doing.

Alex is days away from closing a big deal but it’s taken four years to get this far. The lead was even marked ‘dead’ at one point but was revived through an automatic text campaign. The seller went MIA for weeks and when he finally resurfaced, he had a very strange objection for not going forward. Alex decided to try a different approach and use tactical empathy to really understand what’s going on with this seller and because of this, they were able to move forward with the deal.

Key Takeaways:

Alex is expected to make a 37K net profit on an upcoming deal. This was a lead that was in his system for over four years!
The lead has gone through quite a journey. They lost communication with him around Thanksgiving.
They couldn’t find him! He went MIA for two weeks!
The buyer was patiently waiting and the situation was getting stressful. However, Alex realized he was looking at this problem the wrong way.
Finally, in mid-December, they made contact with the seller again.
The seller was so determined to get the keys back from the tenants, who had already left the property. They were going to change the locks anyway, so why was he so focused on this?
Time to take a break and put yourself in this guy’s shoes.
How can I personally help you?
Go above and beyond. Don’t just accept the surface level objections.
Employ tactical empathy. Once Alex was able to do that, he was able to figure out what was really wrong.

David Dodge has 15 years experience in real estate but only found out about wholesaling five years ago! He wished he’d known about this niche sooner. It took him 10 years to acquire 10 properties and he did it the slow/traditional way. Over the last 14 months, he’s aggressively bought 45 houses using the BRRRR method. David breaks down this method and explains step-by-step how he was able to achieve this rapid growth.

Key Takeaways:

Who is David and how did he get started in real estate?
Wholesaling is a marketing business. Even if you’re not interested in it, you should still learn it because it will teach you the basics of getting directly to the seller!
If you focus on learning marketing and sales, you will never starve.
How has David been able to add 56 rentals to his portfolio?
David only keeps the best for himself.
David also uses the BRRRR strategy = Buy, Rehab, Renting, Refinancing, Repeat. He breaks down how he uses this strategy in real life.
Of the 56 rentals he’s acquired, 45 of them were acquired in the last 12-14 months.
Why does David not want to maximize his leverage?
David uses private lenders to help with the purchase and rehab of the properties.
Tip: Find a local bank, and develop a great relationship with your banker! Don’t deal with the big guys!
Make sure your loan renews, not comes due! David explains the difference.
David does a quick recap of his strategy. You need to be ‘all in’ on about 75% of what the house is appraised for.
How much on average is David cash flowing on each house?
You do not get taxed on creating wealth. You get taxed on income. David explains the difference.
David uses a property manager. His primary focus is to acquire, get them ready for rent, and hand them off.
What advice would David give to his younger self?

Date with Destiny was like a rock concert for personal development (but on steroids).
Despite being at this event, there were people who were complaining!
Express extreme gratitude to the people who are complaining.
Monitor your thoughts. Do you focus on the good or focus on the bad?
Don’t fall into the trap of trying to make things perfect.

Juan Carlos Bernal is a serial entrepreneur, and has made a big impact on Alex’s life over the last 10 years. Juan Carlos is an executive coach and works with clients to overcome roadblocks (big and small), so they can experience massive breakthroughs. In today’s episode, Juan discusses how you can uncover your purpose, why we look for success in all the wrong places, and the importance of dealing with your negative emotions or fears in a healthy way.

Key Takeaways:

Alex has known Juan Carlos for over a decade. Juan has been coaching Alex since they met, and he's helped him in his personal life and business.
Juan Carlos is not an investor; he comes from the consulting world in the technology sector.
Why do people not do the inner work they need to do to succeed?
We look for success in the wrong places.
We are taught all the wrong things. Fake it till you make it, etc. In reality, what makes us successful is our purpose.
Authenticity is the new currency.
How can we find our purpose?
We don’t create our purpose; we have to find it. God sent us with a purpose already within us; we just need to uncover it. This takes time.
If someone had to talk at your funeral, and they couldn’t lie about you, what would they say about you?
We are enslaved by our needs and no matter how much you try, we will never fulfill it.
When we release that need, that’s when things really start flowing and start happening for you.
How can you let go? Where’s the fine line between focusing and letting go?
How can we better deal with the negative emotions in our heads?
Every emotion has a timeframe. When you repress it, it will be worse. When you give it what it needs, you will be set free from it.
What advice would Juan Carlos give to his younger self?

Alex wants to challenge you to go through an exercise that has saved him nearly $5,000 in recurring monthly expenses. The book, Profit First, was a game changer for Alex’s business and on this week’s episode; he shows you why. Stop focusing on the top line, and place that focus on the bottom line!

Key Takeaways:

The book, Profit First, has been revolutionary to how Alex runs his business.
You should have five accounts in your business. Alex breaks down what each of these five accounts does.
In the book, you go through an exercise where you print out your Profit & Loss statement (P&L), and determine if the expense contributes to profit, can be replaced with a cheaper alternative, or can be completely eliminated.
Alex printed out his P&L from January 1st, 2019 till now and marked down all the unnecessary expenses or cheaper alternatives his business could use. It wasn’t a fun exercise, but he’s saved $4,700 in monthly recurring expenses.
Eliminate the things that are not necessary for your business.
Remember, bigger isn’t always better… BETTER IS BETTER!
Don’t have a P&L? Print out your bank statements.
Alex reads a couple of pages from the Profit First book.
Alex’s challenge to you: How do you get 2X the results with half the effort?

Mike Wagner is a self-storage real estate expert and has transformed his life through deliberate and purposeful action.

“Practicality is often just a disguise for fear and I didn’t want to stay in the realm I had lived in for the first 30 years of my life. I wanted to forge my own paths and take the risk.”

“We were in the subsidized housing arena, so collections were a big hassle and the expenses were hard to control. We were spending half of every dollar that we collected on operating expenses.”

“In storage, our income-to-expense ratio is 30 to 33 cents on the dollar. There’s a margin there.”

As the year starts to wind down, it can be easy to set goals and have it fade away as the new year progresses. Alex doesn’t want that to happen to you. He wants you to achieve everything you want in your life, so in this week’s episode, he offers some advice on how you can manifest the life you want and bring action and meaning to these goals in a profound way.

Key Takeaways:

Alex and his wife are in Palm Beach attending a Tony Robbin’s Date with Destiny!
Christmas is just around the corner! Something special is coming up.
Alex is looking back on old notes to remember any key takeaways he might have forgotten about.
If you want to achieve anything in this life, you need to get super, super clear on what that is. That’s step one.
Out of all the goals you want to achieve, which one is the most important one? Focus is key.
The wealthy are always working on one specific goal, not five goals at the same time.
People often like to work on the small things. Those take up time and don’t always get the ball rolling.
Alex is a big believer in affirmations. Read your affirmation 5-10 times in the morning and at night.
You need to visualize your goals as you say your affirmations.
Create your vision board on your phone!
Once you get to work, it’s just a snowball effect after that!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Alex is so grateful for everything he has in his life. Thank you for taking the time to listen to this podcast. In today’s episode, Alex is sharing an exercise he will be doing every morning and every night for the next 90 days.

Key Takeaways:

Thank you so much for listening to this podcast!
Alex is excited! He’s going to see Tony Robbins!
Here is an exercise you can do every morning and every night that will have a profound impact on your life.
The best investment we can make is in ourselves.
Our ultimate goal in life is to find genuine happiness.
Be committed to owning the first 15 minutes of your day, and ask yourself:
- What are you happy for?
- What makes you excited right now?
- What are you proud of in your life right now?
- What are you grateful for?
- What do you enjoy most about your life?
- What are you committed to?
- Who do you love?
When you surround yourself with empowering emotions, that’s ultimately going to make you happy.
To end your day, ask yourself these three questions: What have I been given today? What did I learn today? And how has today added to the quality of my life?
Just like the gym, you don’t see your results overnight, but little-by-little you see the fruits of your labor over time.
Start your day with these seven morning questions and end it with these three night questions and notice how you feel after! Do this for 30 days.

Rod Khleif is a passionate real estate investor who started when he was just 18 years old. On his third year as a real estate broker, he was able to earn six figures in his business and it was all because he took the time to work on his mindset and develop positive psychology for himself. Rod shares how you can develop a strong will to succeed no matter the hardships you are currently facing right now. There is nothing that you can’t do!

Key Takeaways:

Rod comes from an immigrant family and they really struggled when he was growing up.
When Rod got his broker’s licenses, he made six figures in his third year, but what had to change from year 1 to year 3 to make that happen?
So many people have the knowledge but they don’t take action!!!
Take some time when you’re energized to write down everything that you want and need in your life. Write it all out, no matter how crazy it might sound.
What you have on your paper right now is just dreams. Now you gotta put a timeline on them to make them into goals.
Use empowering words when you write all this down. Words will move you.
Then take it one step further, write negative words to deter you from failing. Make it painful.
This document is the fuel that will help you work your dream and encourage you to stay up late and work those nights until you’ve achieved it.
Rod realized he wanted a corvette, so he went out and got a picture of it and put it in the visor of his car so that he would see it everyday. Within 2 years, he got that car.
Visualize what you want, then take action!
Strategies on overcoming our fears…
Rod and his team have now fed over 70,000 children over the holidays over the last 20 years. Success is about giving back.
The most successful people on the plant add the most value to others.

Dan Barrett is the Founder at AdWords Nerds, an online marketing agency for real estate investors. He got started in this career in a very unconventional way, through marketing to bands and musicians. However, with Dan’s diverse background as a musician, teacher, and web developer, he was able to see a big gap in the market when it came to marketing. Get some of Dan’s excellent marketing tips in this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

How did Dan first get started in real estate?
It’s very hard to find motivated sellers online. How can you break through this barrier?
The truth is, the investing niche is super behind when it comes to their marketing game.
Ad prices have gone up 10X to 25X since Dan has started.
Dan pays someone to run his own ads because he simply doesn’t have time to do them!
Not every real estate investor has to be pouring their resources into online marketing. It depends on whether it’s within your niche or not. Sometimes, a website is just good enough.
What are Dan’s thoughts about Facebook ads?
Facebook ads have huge limitations now for real estate investors.
How can investors adapt to these new regulations?
How can you brand yourself as the local expert?
Dan shares his thoughts on how to market on YouTube.
What type of content should you be putting out there?
People want to work with people that are like them.
Test, test, test your ads.
What kind of budget should you have for ads?
Remember to start small.
What social media platform should you focus on?

Alex continues his discussion from last week on how to get better quality leads. Alex dives into the follow up sequences, what you should look for in your KPIs, and why it’s important to not compare yourself to other people’s successes! Stay tuned to next week’s episode, which will dive into what you need to do before, during, and after the seller appointment.

Key Takeaways:

What KPIs should you be tracking?
Don’t pay attention to other people’s KPIs, there’s just too many variables.
Generally you want to track: How many leads your marketing department is generating each week, how many leads it takes to get to appointments, how many appointments it takes you to get to a contract.
FYI: You have existing deals in your CRM pipeline right now.
Alex breaks down what a good follow up system looks like.
Don’t get overwhelmed by all the different follow up sequences out there.
Always aim to deliver value!
Always have someone on your team to do some quality control (i.e. Lead Auditing). You need someone to listen to calls and appointments!
Provide ongoing coaching and feedback to your team so that they’re always improving.

Alex was inspired by last week’s conversation with Jason Palliser on how to "raise the standard" by having an ‘It’s not good enough’ meeting, and shares what impact having this type of meeting has had.

Key Takeaways:

Success is when you add value to yourself and significance is when you add value to others.
You have to enjoy your ride to success. It’s not about the destination.
Set an intention for yourself and put the work in. Keep going until you make it.
Encourage excellence in your company culture so that team members can come to you when they see ways to be more efficient.
One of Alex’s team members noticed some inconsistencies when customers go to their online website and brought it to Alex’s attention.

“Here’s one learning though. You cannot wholesale to these iBuyers. You don’t have to have it bought, but you have to have a plan that you’re shortly going to take ownership of it.”

“iBuyers typically don’t like beater homes or class C or D areas. The best ones to send them are houses that aren’t going to need a lot of renovation to resell or get them rented.”

“Zillow is still a little bit behind the 8-ball. We couldn’t even get our images uploaded to their site, a lot of challenges with file sizes, it’s a very clunky process and it takes 12 days to get back to us and that’s with us following up, following up.”

People aren’t mind readers, so it’s important to communicate and be clear with the types of expectations you have. When you set the expectation, you are setting your team and your sellers up for success.

Key Takeaways:

Setting expectations is huge, but it’s something that can fall by the wayside.
When you onboard someone new, you have to walk them through your systems and your processes plus all the scenarios they might encounter in the field.
Alex’s new acquisition manager felt uncomfortable with going back to the seller for a price reduction (Story).
Remember, "no" is a perfectly okay response to get!

In this quick 7-minute episode, Alex shares a quick tip to help you close more deals. So often in the industry, we focus on ‘no Realtor® commission’ or ‘we cover all closing costs’, but do your sellers know what that really means? How much are we saving them/how much would they be losing? Put these terms into hard numbers they can understand.

Key Takeaways:

Chances are that sellers already know your benefits. It’s overused in the industry.
Instead of saying ‘no Realtor® commission’, put those facts in hard numbers. Say a price figure instead.
Do the same thing with closing costs. On average sellers would be saving 3% on that alone.
Show your sellers a breakdown of what they could be potentially losing/saving.
Even better, get your sellers to do the numbers with you! Have them pull out their smartphones and crunch the numbers with them.
Whatever benefit you have, try to quantify it in terms that your sellers will understand. Don’t assume they know what you’re saying right off the bat.
P.S. Alex & Steve have launched Ascend! Check out episode 328 if you’re interested!

Alex just got back from the Holiday Mastermind in Jamaica. The event was originally supposed to be in the Dominican Republic, but due to the bad news about what was happening to the tourists over there (unexpectedly dying from food poisoning, etc.), Alex and Erik decided to change the location. It was a tough call on Alex’s part and before he even took action, his mind was already contemplating resistance about how much of a hassle it would all be.

Key Takeaways:

Alex just got back from Jamaica with his family and just finished hosting an amazing mastermind while also being able to give back!
The holiday mastermind was actually originally supposed to be in the Dominican Republic, but so many tourists were dying from food poisoning that the event looked like it would be canceled.
The amount of effort to cancel reservations and change plans… Alex began having mental roadblocks.
But after about 12 hours later, Alex made the commitment to switch locations. Best thing ever!
Don’t get into a victim mindset when you haven’t even taken action yet. It will only hold you back.
Be grateful for what you’re going through.
Decide, commit, move forward.
Alex has a new coaching/mastermind group available! Email him for more info.

Alex shares tips and strategies on how you can stand out from the crowd in this week’s episode. Alex and his team are going the extra mile and providing additional touches to their motivated sellers. The goal is to help them feel welcomed and cared for. In your market, what are some of the ways you can be ahead of the crowd?

Key Takeaways:

Alex got some really good feedback about Episode 321!
How can you put yourself in a better position to bridge the gap between where the seller is and where they want to be?
If a seller says ‘maybe’ that’s the worst response you can get. Always push for either a yes or a no (and a "no" is ok).
It’s important your lead manager gives the seller your acquisition manager’s name and phone number.
What happens if your acquisition manager can’t connect with the seller?
Alex has a 24-page homeowner’s guide that all sellers receive via email. This helps them understand what to expect at the appointment and serves as a credibility packet.
Didn’t get the deal? Alex has a ‘shock and awe’ package that they send to sellers.
Alex has a company-branded Starbucks gift card that he sends to sellers!
What’s included in the shock and awe package?
Take the time to call the seller back and QC (Quality Control) the call.

All this and so much more on today’s episode!

By 2010, Brad and his team were the number #1 Keller Williams team in North America.

Alex’s business hasn’t been reaching their targeted goals for the year, so he’s taken a more proactive and different approach to get in front of more sellers. Remember, a lot of the times it’s not about how much money you can make, it’s about solving your seller’s problem. If you can’t get in front of them, then it’s important to dive deep on a phone call and see what kind of frustrations they have that you can solve.

Key Takeaways:

Have any comments or suggestions for the show? Reach out to Alex!
Alex is ultra focused on making a positive impact and helping others.
Alex has been running into some challenges with the business.
What happens if you can’t get face-to-face with a seller?
Alex’s team is focused on going deeper on the phone and seeing if they can agree on a ballpark price.
Forget about the deal. Forget about the money. You want to always pay attention to how you can solve the seller’s problems.
The more competitive the market gets, the more ‘old school’ the marketing needs to get.
Are you clear on who your seller avatar is?

Brayand Ponciano comes from humble beginnings and shares a bit about his upbringing in an immigrant family. It was tough for a kid growing up in an environment where gangs were everywhere, but through his personal journey, he was able to change his mindset and live a life with meaning. Brayand dives into why he prefers Multifamily over Single Family, and how he first got into multifamily properties.

Key Takeaways:

What was it like for Brayand to grow up in an immigrant family?
Brayand was so close to joining a gang. What kept him from going down that path?
If you’re living in that environment, it’s so hard to escape it.
Brayand used to judge people all the time based on what they were wearing or the privileged life they seemed to be living.
Your prejudices can really hold you back from succeeding in life.
When did Brayand’s mindset start to change?
Everyone Brayand knew from Guatemala was poor, except for one lady and she was in real estate.
Brayand noticed that high-level speakers would always, always talk about mindset.
Brayand got his start in real estate through door knocking.
If you know how to door-knock successfully, you will be successful in real estate. Fact!
When you stop blaming everybody else and taking responsibility for your actions, life gets easier for you.
If everything stems from your mind, how can you maximize it?
Alex does a self-audit on his thoughts. Is this thought empowering me or is it hurting me?
Wholesaling can be a rat race. How did Brayand transition into multifamily and create that cash flow?
Hustling can be overrated. You don't have to be ‘on’ all the time to get the work you need to done.
Brayand got so burned out on flipping. He was DONE! It’s important to play with your strengths.
With multifamily, you will probably not be making money for at least 12-18 months.
It is all about networking! It's all about who you know to help you get deals and get you exposed to new opportunities.
Be the best version of yourself.
Feel free to reach out to Brayand! He’d love to hear from you.

Alex shares a painful experience that recently happened at the office where they had a motivated seller go with a competitor… even when Alex could have paid more for what the seller actually got! Alex shares why this happened and the steps they’re taking to prevent missed opportunities from slipping through the cracks.

Key Takeaways:

We’re so close to the halfway mark of the year!
You’ve got missed opportunities in your CRM system right now!
Alex shares a painful experience the team recently had at the office.
It’s important to peel back the layers of the onion and see where you might have dropped the ball on a lead.
Note: When you price anchor, make sure you don’t price anchor so low that it kills the rapport with the seller.
Make sure you don’t let your seller think the price anchor is your actual offer.
Make sure you have a follow-up stage for every point of the lead cycle. That means texts, phone calls, emails, etc!
We all struggle! Don’t let the glitz and the glamour fool you.

“If you give a price, it’s a double edge sword. If you give a price and it doesn’t work for the seller, in some people’s eyes, you effectively kill the follow-up process.”

“I’m confident we could have gotten that deal slightly above for what he ended up selling to the other investor for. It was a missed opportunity.”

“Wanted to share that missed opportunity with you. It’s not all about the wins. We fail, we have challenges, we struggle as well, just like anybody else.”

Alex and his team realized that their dispositions department could use a more streamlined and cleaner process. With so much focus on marketing and closing deals, dispositions can get pushed to the side but if you're not careful, you can end up leaving money on the table. Alex realized this recently where he ended up losing about $3-4K on a deal! Find out how to avoid this problem in today's episode!

Key Takeaways:

Alex and his family are on a seven-day cruise right now!
How can you make your dispositions process more effective?
You can be leaving $$$ on the table by not trying to optimize your dispositions department.
Alex lost about $3-4K by not getting a deal in front of their own buyers.
Buyers come and go! So, how can you cultivate meaningful relationships with your VIP buyers?
Alex has learned that they do not verbally commit anymore. The strongest commitment is a wire transfer!
Alex is thinking about changing up his process and how he sets up his deals with buyers. He wants to offer a ‘buy it now’ price.
Remember to give your buyers a deadline, so that you don’t end up waiting all week for it.
Be clear and set the expectations upfront with your buyers.
Most of Alex’s deals are gone within 48 hours and you want to train your buyers to act quickly.
Keep in mind, agents might also have buyers that will pay more than what you’re asking.
Have questions? Connect with Alex!
Alex is looking for a new team member to fill the dispositions role! In South Florida? Reach out.

Alex shares some growing pains he’s been experiencing in the business lately. He has on-boarded some new talent as well as shifted some of his team members around so that they’re in a more elevated and suited role for their talent and expertise. These adjustments take time, but it’s on you, as the leader, to make sure things are running the way they should be.

Key Takeaways:

Alex now has two team members working leads, one doing inbound lead management and the other doing outbound.
What are the responsibilities of each person?
Big mistake Alex made was having his acquisition manager take calls live. He explains why!
Your acquisition manager needs to be focused and taking calls live ends up draining them.
Alex also recently implemented a lead rating system. The team now understands what a cold lead is vs. a hot lead.
When you follow up with sellers, are you delivering value?
The opportunity costs are just too great if you can’t follow up on your leads properly!

Alex shares an awesome tip that’s been working with his team. Last year, one of the problems he was having was that his team was over-qualifying the leads, but this year, they’ve opened up the criteria and are getting in front of more sellers (even if they don’t seem motivated). Another tip is that Alex’s lead manager has been spending much more time on the phone with these potential sellers to build rapport and to really dive deep as to why they’re selling!

Key Takeaways:

Alex has noticed that when the lead manager digs deeper on the phone, they were able to build better rapport during the in-person appointment.
When you ask problem questions, impact questions, and picture-perfect questions, Alex’s team was able to give a more customized offer.
Last year, Alex was shooting himself in the foot because they were over-qualifying their leads.
It’s better to get in front of a potential seller than never have that opportunity at all.
Building rapport is critical! Alex’s lead manager spends about 10 to 20 minutes on the call with a potential seller.
Alex had to make a difficult decision about a month or so ago and let one of his team members go.
The newly hired acquisition manager recently closed his first deal just because he built such great rapport over the phone.
When there are challenges in your team, it’s important to keep the lines of communication open.

“Our lead manager is now spending between 10 to 20 minutes on the phone with these people. We are now in a much better position to get those deals done when our acquisition manager gets in front of them.”

“There’s going to be mistakes when hiring new people. There’s going to be mistakes with existing team members that know the process! But it’s about keeping the lines of communication open.”

Frank Curtin is an EOS implementer, business strategist, and has a background in project management and supply chain management. Frank has been Alex’s EOS implementer and has helped Alex improve his systems and company culture. On today’s show, Frank shares why it’s important to have a flexible system for your organization, some top mistakes he sees real estate investors make, and how you can get started!

Key Takeaways:

Who is Frank and how did he get involved in entrepreneurship and system processes?
Systems need to be flexible because when your company structure shifts (through growth), your systems need to shift with it.
How can investors put the right structure in place?
What is an accountability chart?
Why is it that so many investors don’t have important foundational elements in place like core values?
When the market changes and you have no structure/systems in place, your business will crumble.
And, the market will change!
Frank is really dialed in on what are his strengths and what are his weaknesses.
Every entrepreneur has to go through a survival phrase where they’re starting their company and wearing all the hats.
A bad hire is worse than no hire.
How can investors find the right people for their team?
As an employer, it’s so, so, so important to be open-minded to your staff’s suggestions on how to make something better.
When you give people the lead and freedom to achieve their tasks the way they see fit, it creates trust and less turnover.
Should you have your foundational pieces in place before you onboard a new employee?
If you need help with your system, it’s really valuable you pay a coach to help you with it.
Get very clear on what are your priorities are to avoid the ‘shiny object syndrome.’
Remember, you’re going to make mistakes, but you’re going to get better. Good things take time to develop!
What kinds of mistakes do entrepreneurs tend to make when it comes to their systems?
Take the first few steps. Just get started.

Key Takeaways:

Alex loves helping his clients succeed in their real estate businesses! He takes on a client or two per quarter.
Alex did some number crunching in 2017 and 2018 to see if he can discover any patterns.
By the way, you should always track how much revenue you’ve generated every single month.
The data is only as good as your being able to read it.
He noticed that the team had some very, very good months, and some not so great months.
Ideally, you want to track how much revenue was generated during a three-year period.

Ken Holmes has seen (and done!) every type of deal you can possibly imagine! Ken started his real estate career in 1987 and has learned a thing or two during that time. On the show, Ken shares his wisdom of what he wished he’d known sooner and shares his financial freedom formula on how you can replace your 9-5 money with real cash flow that will keep and sustain the lifestyle you’ve always wanted.

Key Takeaways:

Ken got his start as a real estate appraiser in 1987 and flipped his first house in 1997.
Ken had this goal to make $500,000 a year, but he never put much thought into ‘why.’
Ken shares his formula for financial freedom. It comes down to asset x rate of return - taxes = lifestyle.
If you make 8% on your money and you’re paying taxes, you need roughly $2m in assets to make $10,000 a month.
However, if you can make 15% on your money and pay no taxes (through a self-directed IRA), you would only need to have $800k in assets to make $10,000 a month.
Your goal shouldn’t be to make your first million, it should be to increase your cash flow.
Before setting a net worth or cash flow goal, define the kind of lifestyle you want!
FYI - The desired lifestyle you want is (likely) a lot cheaper than you think it is.
Ken shares a creative deal he did with a church.
Get creative with your deal structures and you can easily get that 15% return on your money.
Ken stresses the importance of understanding what a self-directed IRA can do for you and your money.
The biggest expense you’ll probably have in your lifetime is taxes.
Alex shares Ken’s steps to financial freedom.
What piece of advice would Ken give his younger self? Stay debt free!

If you’re waking up feeling sluggish or just not into it, what perspective can you use to kick yourself out of it? Whatever it is, it will always first start with your mind.

Key Takeaways:

How can you bottle up your good feelings so you can tap into them whenever you need it?
We all have days where we wake up and we’re feeling sluggish.
Alex hopes you’ve got some feel-good vibes into you today!
Business is not a one-man or one-woman sport. You need the support and help of those around you.
When things hit the fan, how are you going to turn yourself around?
We’ve all woken up feeling amazing and we’ve all woken up feeling ‘meh.’ In those meh moments, what are you going to do to snap yourself out of it?

Alex has recently scheduled time in his calendar to just think and he’s gotten so much clarity from just that single act alone. Not only should you be meditating regularly, but you should also take time to just write down your thoughts and goals that you have for yourself. You build a lot of self-confidence by honoring the big and small commitments that you make to yourself!

Key Takeaways:

Alex has a lot going on in his mind right now.
Alex spent about an hour writing down some of his thoughts and he split it up in three categories: Family, Personal, and Business.
Travel has played a big part of Alex and his family’s life, but they’ve been intentional and conscious about this.
What does Alex’s calendar look like?
Alex now schedules ‘think time’ into his calendar so he has time to just think.

Alex shares some life updates on this week’s podcast. At the beginning of the year, Alex felt like God wasn’t really speaking to him, but after coming back from a mission trip to Guatemala, he realizes what God was saying to him all along. We have so much opportunity in our lives that even on your worst day, it’s someone’s absolute best day.

Key Takeaways:

It’s almost March! If you’re not where you want to be, it’s okay; recognize it, learn from it, and move forward!
Having a hard time getting rid of the chaos in your mind? Get your body moving.
At the end of January, Alex attended a Lifeonaire retreat. It was there where he was inspired to attend a mission trip to Guatemala with some of his mastermind buddies.
Alex is here to create an impact, to make the world a better place. And sometimes, he’s not always crystal clear what that looks like.
Guatemalans are very grateful and happy people.
Over there, when kids turn 10-12 years old, they have to start working.
Alex went into a 70 sq. ft. house and it had five to six people living in there. There was no ventilation in there and it was just a dirt floor.
We have so much opportunity and yet we take it for granted.
Your worst day is somebody’s absolute best day out there.
At the beginning of the year, Alex wasn’t really hearing God speak to him.
Are you open to hearing and receiving what God/universe/whatever you believe in is giving you?
The next voice that you also have to pay attention to is your inner voice.
Do you have KPIs for your family?
Real leadership and strengths come from showing your weaknesses and vulnerabilities. Don’t ever lose that.

Gary Harper suffered from a near-death experience and almost lost it all. He made a promise to God that if he made it through, he would dedicate the rest of his life to service and helping others. God granted him that wish and today Gary consults with clients on how they can live their mission and vision and all the while, optimize their business process.

Key Takeaways:

Gary travels the country to help businesses with their processes.
Gary was an executive for almost 15 years and also got into real estate about 20 years ago, but he lost it all and had to file for bankruptcy.
Gary also nearly died from Lyme disease in 2011. During that time, he made a promise to God.
How can you create your own vision plan?
Gary had to start with his ‘Why’. He highly recommends Simon Sinek’s work. Gary’s ‘Why’ is to honor God.
Gary explains his company’s ‘Why’ and showcases how it’s different from his personal ‘Why.’
What really matters with you?
When Gary was on his deathbed, he asked himself what did he do with all of his time. Where did it all go?
Do you want to miss your child's birthday because you were too busy trying to make money?
How can people better visualize their life 10-15-20 years down the road?
Gary breaks down his MVP (Mission, Vision, and Process) framework.
Where we stumble and fail is when we try to do too much.
The biggest thing is to FOCUS!
It doesn’t really matter if you have a vision if you don’t have a gameplan on how to get it done.
Document your process. If you’re in real estate, you’re wearing about 44 hats.
Sometimes we work so hard that we lose focus on who it’s for, and why it’s for, and then your most important relationships fail.
There are two types of entrepreneurs out there. There are leaders and there are dictators.
Why do entrepreneurs fail to scale their businesses?

On today’s episode, Alex shares ways he attracts new buyers into his pipeline. Whether you like it or not, buyers have an expiration date on how long they’re willing to wait before acquiring a new property, which means you need to be on the lookout for new leads! Find out some of the best ways to find new buyers on today’s show!

Key Takeaways:

Your buyers have an expiration date.
What are some of the things Alex does to attract buyers?
Locked up a property that doesn’t quite make sense from a number’s perspective? There is a buyer for that property.
Do you see ‘for rent’ signs in your area? Call them!
When you meet new people, find out if they’re a buyer, seller, lender or someone who knows one of those people.
If you have a mobile number, it’s usually about a 100% open rate. With email, you’re lucky if you get 15% open rate.
Can’t find someone who wants to close on your price? There’s a way around that.
Whenever you get a deal, don’t be a motivated seller...Take some time to market the contract to find the best buyer!

Alex and his team did something different in the business and added one of their deals onto social media. It ended up getting a buyer who was willing to pay more than their current buyers list as well as on the MLS! Although he is not a social media expert, he wants to hear feedback from those who are killing it on there!

Key Takeaways:

Alex put a vacant property out on the MLS and they weren’t really getting a lot of ‘bite’ on it.
One of Alex’s team members (Transaction Coordinator) took the deal and posted it on her Instagram instead… and a buyer contacted her!
They ended up making $92K in net profit because of this!
Don’t underestimate the power of social media.
Alex is now looking into how they can leverage social media a bit better.
The Transaction Coordinator didn’t get a lot of likes or comments on her profile, but in the end, it just takes one person to say yes!
Are you successfully tapping into social media? Alex would love to hear from you.

As the year winds down, Alex takes this time to reflect on his business and see the progress it has made. Lately, he’s implemented a weekly lead audit that has given him a deeper insight as to where his team is lacking and some opportunities that might have been missed. Find out more in this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

The year is winding down, remember to take a break and take some time to reflect!
Free up your mind so you can think clearly and dream for the future.
Alex has been doing a weekly lead audit to see how ‘good’ the leads are and how his team has been processing them.
The most expensive leads to generate are the leads you don’t have.
If you’re consistent with your lead review, you’re going to find opportunities right under your nose!
This year, Alex and his team overqualified people too aggressively.
TIP: Loosen up your front-end qualifying process.
If you can get in front of the seller, you will be better off than just talking to them on the phone.

Mike Jake has been in real estate since 2003 and he typically does around 70-90 deals per year. Mike has been able to grow his rental portfolio to slightly over 100 doors with the use of creative financing and an eye for asset growth. On today’s show, Mike shares the strategies he's used to achieve the lifestyle he’s always wanted, how you can build a rental portfolio without having a large stack of cash sitting around, and so much more!

Key Takeaways:

How do you become recession-proof?
Mike does about 70-90 deals per year. However, he's also focusing on other strategies to put him in the best position possible — no matter what state the market is in.
Who is Mike and how did he get started?
Mike shares what kind of deals he does and how he builds his rental portfolio.
What does Mike’s marketing process look like?
How does Mike reduce his tax liabilities and fully leverage the IRS?
Mike right now has just a little over 100 rental properties with a total asset value of $20 million.
A big portion of Mike’s portfolio is from creative financing.
What was a typical house Mike bought during the recession?
Mike likes investing in assets that go up! He’ll forgo cash flow if he knows the property has growth potential.
You have to think long-term when it comes to real estate.
Mike recommends a couple of the ways you can build a rental portfolio.
Mike sat down and determined what he wanted his ideal lifestyle to look like and he planned it out!
Remember, sometimes, you'll just end up buying the wrong house and you won’t know until years later.
The longer you do this, the more experience you’ll get, and the more chances you’ll have to get it right.
Where does Mike see the market going in the next few years?
Position yourself so you don’t have to say ‘yes’ if you don't want to.
There’s a lot of peace of mind that comes with knowing you’ll be okay when the market turns.
Just start! Get out there and buy your first rental property!
It’s important to pick and choose all the good things your mentors have to offer, but be aware we’re all human and everyone has flaws, too.
It’s not that complicated: Buy a good asset, manage it well, and keep living!
You have to have thick skin and realize you are going to make bad decisions, but the good news is, you’ll learn from them!

Alex discusses how to close on those tough deals that all investors face. What do you do when the seller doesn’t like your cash offer? There are other ways to structure deals and to help your homeowners than just a straight up “as is” cash offer. Alex dives into it in detail on this episode!

Key Takeaways:

Do your sellers trust you?
Need help with deal structuring? Check out episode 92.
You can’t help every seller that walks through your door.
If you can’t meet a seller eye-to-eye, maybe offering seller financing can help you get over that hump.
Sometimes your cash offer just isn’t the solution. What else can you do?
Ask your seller more in-depth questions to understand the reasons why they’re selling.
It’s important to go into an appointment with a little bit of an open mind.
You want to craft a customized solution for your seller. It’s not always a one-size-fits-all approach.

Alex can’t believe he’s 250 episodes in!
Alex loves John Martinez’s sales training course and has taken his team through it.
It’s so important to focus on the seller and build rapport with them.
Remember, without pain, there is no sale!
Ask the seller why they decided to reach out to you.
Sometimes the solution you bring to the table isn’t something the seller will need right now.
What are some examples of impact questions?
You then want to ask picture-perfect questions. Alex shares some examples!
Are you using the sales process consciously or are you just winging it?
You don’t want to beat your sellers into ‘submission.’ That’s a big ‘no-no’ and there’s a better way to approach it.

“If the seller has no pain, chances are you can’t really help them.”

“Essentially picture-perfect questions are building a bridge between where the prospect is and where you want to be.”

Alex shares why he is building up his cash reserves and getting smarter with his money. As everyone knows, real estate has cycles and the last thing you want to do is be thrown in with the sharks when the market turns.

Key Takeaways:

Where are we in the real estate cycle right now?
Don’t try to time the market.
Get smart with your cash and build up reserves, so that you don’t get hurt when the market turns.
The market will correct itself, it’s just a matter of ‘when.’
Always build relationships with lenders and potential JV partners.
Know your market and be careful with the types of rehabs you’re getting into.
Make sure you’re paying yourself first.
Amazon keeps 3% of their market cap in cash reserves.
NVR Inc. keeps about 20% of their worth in cash.
If you have a risky business model, you should have more cash reserves on hand.

Alex is back with another solo episode to wrap up Part 2 of how you can make a long-lasting impression and close that deal with your sellers. Building rapport during the face-to-face appointment is critical. People do business with people they know, like, and trust! So, spend some time building that trust.

Key Takeaways:

When you first walk into the seller’s house, don’t talk about the house!
Sellers aren’t going to work with you if they don’t feel comfortable.
Try to connect with the seller on a personal level.
Get the seller to say in their own words how much it would cost to fix the house to retail condition.
How much does the seller think their property is worth?
You always want to get your seller to say a number first, and then ‘price anchor’ them.
People are more likely to believe something they came up with as opposed to your ‘influencing’ them or selling them on that belief/idea.
Be aware of how you price anchor people. Do you always jump up in even numbers? Give them more odd (smaller) increments.

Alex does a two-part solo episode about making a long-lasting impression with your sellers while you or your acquisition team are on appointments. If you don’t know how your team is treating them on the phone or even at appointments, you’re going in blind and not bringing the best service you can to your customers. Alex offers tips on how to better improve your process and get that deal.

Key Takeaways:

How do you get the most out of your appointments with sellers?
Have you noticed that most people are really awful listeners?
How are you treating people on the phone? Are you engaged? Are you listening?
If your state allows it, get your calls recorded for internal training purposes.
When you listen to a recording, you really pick up on some of the subtleties that you missed in the beginning.
Might sound obvious, but prepare, prepare, prepare before your appointment!
It’s never one-size-fits-all with sellers.
Have you ever shaken someone’s hand only for it to get crushed by Godzilla?
The more info you have, the better equipped you are to offer customized solutions for them.
Focus on them first!
Sellers always receive a text and email confirmation with info about the company once an appointment has been set.
Bring a printed package with you so that sellers have something physical to hold onto and to see physically.
Stay tuned for Part 2!

Alex was presented with a really good money-making opportunity, but he had to stop himself before he could take it on. Why? Because money isn’t everything and it shouldn’t distract you from your bigger picture, from your vision. Alex shares examples of why you need to slow down, practice patience, and really — THINK — things through before jumping on the money.

Key Takeaways:

Do you make decisions based on how much money you’re going to make?
Alex shares an example of choosing your opportunities based on the amount of money you think it might generate.
Today, Alex filters his opportunities through a different decision-making process.
What’s the headache factor going to look like?
Are you going in a million different directions?
Alex found himself almost making a bad decision based on seeing a new ‘opportunity’ come up on his horizon. Bad idea!
We want the microwave result, but what we really need is patience.
There are some cases where you need to go slow. Jogging or running isn’t the ideal pace to handle certain things.

Adrian Lyew is back to complete the second part of this masterclass. He dives into systems and processes on today’s show but also reminds the audience that it’s still important to keep ‘eating’ as well. You will never get the perfect CRM system and spending too much on the process side of things can end up making you starve and not generate any new deals. It’s important to keep a healthy balance between the two!

Key Takeaways:

Everybody understands the importance of systems in their business, but that means other areas of their business may go unnoticed.
Don’t forget to listen to Part 1 with Adrian!
Adrian kicks ass at his job because he’s operating in his genius zone.
Adrian explains how he works diligently and keeps focused.
Spend some time reflecting what your strengths are.
What does Adrian mean by ‘building strong systems’?
You’re not going to make money by twiddling in your CRM all day.
Hustle to get those first deals, but if you want to scale and grow, you need to get organized (and have processes put in place).
What do you do when you’re just not an organized person?
Get things out of your ‘headspace’ so you can move faster and get more diligent with the things you have to do.
Don’t blame the person who didn’t do it, blame the direction that they were given.
How do you structure or create a system or a process? Adrian shares an example.
You need to update or keep an eye on those SOP documents every month.
Don’t over complicate it. Take things one at a time.
What’s one thing Adrian wishes he had done sooner knowing what he knows now?

Unique Ability® 2.0: Discovery - Define Your Best Self

Alex was encountering a huge bottleneck in his business when it came to the returned mailers. You never want to just throw away a returned mailer because you never know where you might find a deal, but it can be a tedious process to sift through it all and get updated address for them. Alex shares a tip he found out about on the show that helped him automate the process!

Key Takeaways:

What does Alex do with his returned mailers?
There are deals in the return mail. Don’t let it sit there.
There’s a lot of manual legwork involved to handle those return mailers and that’s why other investors don’t do it. It’s a headache.
BUT! There’s a way to automate this process.
Before automating the process, Alex hired someone to do it manually and he wasn’t able to keep up with the large volume of it all.
Look up “ERS” aka ‘Electronic Return Service’ and see if your direct mail fulfillment center provides it.
It’s amazing this service exists! It will save you a lot of time and money.
Hope that this quick tip helps you! Feel free to message Alex if it does.

Alex is back with another solo-episode for this Monday’s masterclass! More and more people are finding out that their direct-mail campaigns are not as effective as they used to be. So, what can you do about it? Alex offers some advice on how you can work towards improving how you present yourself to your potential sellers and close those deals!

Key Takeaways:

For many people, direct mail has not been as effective from a response rate perspective as it was in the past.
You have to ask yourself a couple of things about the quality of your marketing pieces and list. Alex gives some examples of what you should be thinking about.
Ask your sellers why they called you and not your other competitors. This gives you excellent insight into what they’re thinking!
When you split test, only change one variable at a time. Don’t change it up drastically or else you’ll have a hard time figuring out what works and what doesn’t!
Constantly be marketing, even if you don’t see the results right away. The worst thing you can do is turn it off!
How can you go deeper and touch your potential sellers in multiple ways?
What makes you different?

Alex shares some ways you can improve your disposition department and get the deals you’ve landed moved and sold. The landscape for selling your deals has changed, so you have to get a little more creative on how to market your deals to buyers.

Key Takeaways:

Thank you so much for listening to this podcast!
The landscape for selling your deals has changed.
Consider closing on your deal personally and then selling it on the MLS.
If you have a really good deal on your hands, make sure you take good care of it.
It’s not uncommon for people to try and take advantage of your good deals.
Last year, Alex and his team lost out on about five deals to the tune of 140k in expected revenue.
Don’t rely on email marketing only. It’s gotten diluted over the years.
Use text marketing, bandit signs, and face-to-face conversations to get those deals!
Contact your local real estate agents and see if you can partner with them.

Alex does a quick solo episode on this week’s master class. Alex is incredibly grateful that while he was away on vacation, his business was running smoothly and his team was able to take care of any problems that arose. On today’s show, Alex offers some advice on how to set systems in place so that your team is never lost without you.

Key Takeaways:

A month ago, Alex and his family took off on a 17-day trip to Europe.
When Alex came back, his business was running smoothly and nothing was on fire.
What kind of system does your business run on?
There are certain things you simply can’t control.
You can control, however, whom you hire and whom you choose to work with.
When problems occurred in Alex’s absence, they were taken care of because of the systems that were put in place.
All Alex had to do was look at his KPIs and he knew immediately where his business was.
With slightly over 230 episodes, feel free to use the search bar to search podcast topics that have been covered in the past.
Alex recommends that you try and disconnect once a quarter!
Ask yourself: Can my business run without me?
As a leader, you want to empower your team. Don’t take away their power.
Quick update: Alex is starting to build a rental portfolio in the Midwest.

Alex shares some thoughts and reflections he’s been having as of late. It’s important to disconnect and unplug from your business to discover new ways to be better. Also, don’t forget to appreciate your team members and find out on a personal level what motivates them. At the end of the day, if something is not working for you, find a way to pivot because everybody deserves to be happy and to live the best version of themselves.

Key Takeaways:

Have you been doing something for the last eight months and it just isn’t working?
It might be tough, but make time to unplug from the business to get your head straight.
Disconnect from ‘life’ and ask yourself thought-provoking questions that help you become better.
Alex feels so blessed and grateful to have a team that keeps things moving.
It’s important you communicate to your team how important they are to your business. Make them feel valued.
Some people simply aren’t motivated by money. You can’t always throw money at people to incentivize them. So, how can you keep them motivated?
Alex reflects on a masterclass he had with Haim Mamane.
This business should not be just about money.
A sustainable business has to go beyond dollar signs and profit margins.

Nathan Brooks is a real estate investor that’s looking to do roughly 150 fix-and-flips this year. He also provides turnkey investment opportunities to clients in seven different countries. In total, Nathan and his team are looking to do about $20 million in revenue this year alone! Find out more about Nathan’s leadership philosophy, how to scale up, and what his rental portfolio looks like today.

Key Takeaways:

How did Nathan get started in the business and what does it look like today?
How did Nathan grow his business so successfully?
Nathan had trouble scaling up because the process that worked for flipping/buying 3 houses didn’t transfer over to when he wanted to flip/buy 10 houses.

You need to do the basic foundational steps (your why, your vision, etc.) to see whether it even makes sense for you to scale up.
A good leader knows when to be a backup system, take the lead, or just take a steady pace.
What kinds of things does Nathan do to improve his leadership skills?
Leaders forget that it always starts with ‘me.’ If you’re not improving yourself in some way every day — if you’re not thinking about your team and the people who serve you, you are failing.
You have to know what kind of levers to pull based on who you’re working with.
What does Nathan’s rental portfolio look like today?
Alex and Nathan know several people who are positioning themselves wisely in case of a market downturn.
How does Nathan manage his rental properties?

Jon stresses the importance of creating a lifestyle business that matches your needs.

Key Takeaways:

What kind of challenges has Jon faced so far?

What type of business do you want to develop? It’s important to get clear on that.
Jon has been intentional in trying to develop a lifestyle business, not a corporation.
What is Jon’s business model today and how does he structure his team?

Jon’s ultimate goal is to try and get to $10,000 a month in cash flow.
Jon shares his interesting experiences in being a landlord so far.

How did Jon get into the high-end rentals?
Jon shares a case study of a high-end property and the process it took to go from vacancy to full.
Did Jon ever consider going into commercial real estate?
The wholesaling business helps out a lot because you can make a lot of money. It’s a simple business, but it’s not always easy.
A bad hire can be deadly in your business.
Pay attention to the data! Your marketing will tell you the real story.
If it was easy, it wouldn’t be satisfying!
What advice would Jon give his younger self?
There’s nothing wrong with starting later in life!

Billy Ross has been in real estate since 2003. He first started as a real estate agent, but converted over and became an investor shortly after. Today, he makes 12-15 deals a month with an amazing team who believe in the company purpose and mission. On today’s show, Billy discusses how one bad apple can literally destroy a company, why a positive mindset plays a big part in his philosophy and offers solid direct-marketing advice for new real estate investors!

Key Takeaways:

Someone with a negative mindset can really destroy your company culture.
How do you influence people in a positive way and get the team to buy into your mission?
Billy had bad apples in his team and couldn’t recover. So, for two years, he had to revert back to the basics before he could rebuild.
Billy generates about 12-15 deals a month. Where do his marketing dollars go?
You’re wasting your dollars if you only hit a list once. You have to go over it multiple times!
Billy offers some advice to newbie investors who want to get started with direct-mail marketing.
What types of people does Billy look for in his team?
As a leader, Billy understands it’s a process. Nobody is perfect. He stumbles every day and gets back up again.
Remember, the details matter. Reading a book 30 minutes a day might not be a big deal, but over time it really adds up!
What is Billy’s morning routine or mindset routine?
There is no such thing as a ‘bad’ morning routine. Work on it and customize it so that it works for you.
How does Billy encourage and teach his team about mindset and personal development?
You can change your self-image. In fact, you have to if you want to grow and reach the next business level.
Practice gratitude every day. You can do three minutes in the morning and two minutes at night. It’s an easy habit to do!
Set your environment in a way where you automatically set yourself up for success.
Do you ever feel like you’re not doing ‘enough’? Having a vision sets you back on track.

This is Haim Mamane’s second appearance on the show and a lot has changed since then! Last we heard from Haim he was in Memphis running a team of seven people and closing roughly five to six deals a month. However, about a year or so ago, Haim realized that none of that made him happy and it was time for a shift in business model, perspectives, and even markets! Find out what he’s up to today and how he’s ‘cut the fat’ on everything that made him unhappy.

Key Takeaways:

Haim was always giving info out for free and helping others when Alex and he first connected.
Who is Haim and what does he do?
After growing the business and having a team of seven people, Haim realized he hated it.
Haim decided to change his business model and go for low volume/high spread deals. That way he can make much more money with fewer deals and have a smaller team to manage.
Haim didn’t want to be a slave to his business.
When did Haim decide to make this shift?
What was the San Francisco market like as compared to Memphis?
Haim shares a quick story of one of his first sellers in SF.
Now, if it makes sense to rehab it, Haim will just rehab it. He wasn’t doing that before in Memphis.
Haim has done two rehabs this year and one wholesale.
What does Haim’s team look like today?
Haim now focuses on the parts of the business that fulfill him and has ‘cut the fat’ on everything else.

Alex just got back from the Holiday Mastermind with Erik Stark. Not only did he learn a lot, but collectively the group made a nice contribution to the We Are Graces charity! Today’s podcast is all about sharing the wealth — the knowledge — with others. Alex shares a perfect example as to why having a strong mantra can improve your mindset and increase your sales exponentially (really!). Don’t be afraid to share it with your team and find ways to lift them up in their personal and business growth.

Key Takeaways:

Alex just got from the Bahamas. It was an amazing experience!
Whenever you come across good information, share that with others! Have an abundance mindset.
Pay attention to what people do, don’t pay attention to what they say.
There is no such thing as ‘try.’ That’s a weak word people use.
Have a daily mantra and get your team into that mindset too.
Alex is working towards encouraging and uplifting his team every day.

Ron Phillips has 17 years of real estate experience and is more than happy to share his wealth of knowledge with you today. Everything from hiring the right people, failed partnerships, and the steps he took to build a steady stream of cash flow is revealed in today’s masterclass! Ron’s been able to build a life of freedom where he can take more vacations and spend it with his loved ones.

Key Takeaways:

Ron just got back from vacation with his family.
At the end of the day, money just gives us options.
Having a clear life vision was a complete game changer for Ron and Alex.
How did Ron get started in real estate?
Ron shares how he closed his first real estate deal … with literally no money in his pocket.
If you know sales and marketing, then you’ll never starve.
People today are so afraid of talking to other people. All they want to do is text and not pick up the phone or knock on the door. Don’t be those people!
What has Ron’s experiences been like when it comes to business partnerships?
No one can take away what you learn. You can lose all your stuff, but you don’t lose experience.
It took seven years to build Ron’s first company, but through his experience, he was able to rebuild his company within a year.
If you don’t ask, then you’re never going to get the benefit of other people’s experience and knowledge.
Don’t let your pride get in the way of your growth.
What does Ron’s business look like today?
What’s Ron’s hiring process look like?
Ron would hire people who were PERFECT for the position, but it never would work out! Why? They weren’t aligned in their values.
People who don’t align with your core values will eventually cost you money, time, and the glue that holds your team together.
What were the steps that Ron took to build cash flow throughout his career?
Ron’s biggest mistake early on was not putting his money into cash flow assets.
How was Ron financing his properties?
What happens if 2008 happens again?!

Who are Alex and Erik?
In July, it’s Alex and Erik’s goal to give back to charity, work with entrepreneurs, and travel.

This year, how can Alex and Erik raise the bar and give back even more?
Alex was a big inspiration as to why Erik decided to move from Michigan to Florida.
Alex asked Steve for his support, but neither Alex or Erik had an idea of which charity to support. That’s when Steve recommended the Lifeonaire charity of choice, which was building homes and schools for people in Guatemala.
Steve explains why he is so passionate about the We Are Graces non-profit organization.
Alex discusses the structure and the layout of the Holiday Mastermind.
Alex highlights the importance of being vulnerable in the Mastermind and how it helps you become a better entrepreneur.

Randy Lawrence is a serial entrepreneur with 24 years of experience as a real estate investor and business owner. Randy is a big believer in designing a life that you want. It’s so easy to get distracted from shiny object syndrome and to check out what your friends in the industry are doing to achieve their level of success. You might even want to emulate their methods too. But, everybody’s path is different, what works for them might not necessarily be the best fit for you. Have a vision for your life to achieve REAL personal success.

Key Takeaways:

Randy started his real estate career in multifamily and then built out a very successful single-family business.
Randy shares a valuable lesson he learned in the very beginning of his career about always doing the right thing first.
Randy’s marketing results are great because he has set the intention to help people FIRST.
Randy and Alex both strongly believe in the positive benefits of tithe and ‘letting go’ of that 10%.
Why did Randy first get into multifamily instead of single-family property?
How can someone get started in multifamily properties?
There’s more than one way to achieve success. Don’t compromise on who you are.
Ask yourself: What’s the best fit for you? What are your goals? Everyone is different. What works for your friends/business acquaintances might not always work for you.
Get clear on what it is that you ultimately want.
You should be saying no more often than you should be saying yes.
You’re going to get hit with so many obstacles along your way. And if you’re not determined, it’s going to get harder and hard not to derail.
How did Randy find this 84 multifamily unit and lock it up?
Partnering with others and creating a team effort is key to getting into multifamily. You can’t do it alone.

Do not underestimate your network! If you’re looking to find new deals, there are plenty of people out there who either know of a buyer, a seller, or a money lender. Just ask them! There are plenty of ways you can lock up deals under contract, but don’t forget to be consistent with your efforts and take an ‘octopus’ approach to your marketing.

Key Takeaways:

It’s crazy how quickly time flies! June is a great month to take time to reflect on your goals.
What are some different ways to generate more leads?
Direct-mail, bandit signs, outbound calling, door knocking, etc. They all work! What doesn’t work is you.
Don’t forget to network with your people!
Think about the title company you work with.
Remember: Most people are either buyers, sellers, renters, borrowers, or they know one of the above.
Create a spreadsheet of all the properties that don’t sell at an online auction.
Didn’t end up getting the contract with a seller? Ask them when their contract ends and circle back with them around that time.
You’ve gotta have an ‘octopus’ approach to your marketing.

The real estate game is changing. You have to stand out from the crowd and not do what everybody else is doing. Targeting just on one or two marketing channels no longer works because the market is getting oversaturated. Alex shares some tips on today’s episode on how to take your lead generation strategy to the next level.

Key Takeaways:

The Flip Empire Show has over 100 5-star iTunes reviews! Thank you!
If you’re in a hot market, you have to do multichannel marketing, and you have to do it consistently.
You have to focus on two things: lead generation and lead conversion.
The barriers to entry to get into this business are pretty low and everybody and their mom aspire to flip real estate.
How can you jump out and stand above the competitors?
He who controls the leads controls the inventory and the market.
How can you increase your conversions without increasing your marketing costs?
Alex dropped around 20,000 postcards and got feedback from his team that the people who were calling were Spanish speakers only and actually didn’t understand what was on the postcard.
The days of focusing on one or two marketing channels are dead. You have to find multiple ways to touch a potential seller so you remain on the top of their mind.
Direct mail is a very competitive landscape right now. Alex has to send more mail in order to get the same reaches.
Another tip: Keep track of your data and analytics. Bad data can kill you and your marketing budget in an instant.
Chances are, your sellers are on more than one list.
Alex does a quick recap of what he talked about today. Take one or two of these tips and take action on it.

Dave Payerchin is the co-founding partner of Columbus Turnkey Houses. He’s been in this business since 2005 and started out as a buy-and-hold investor. On today’s show, he shares what you need to know before buying your first turnkey property. Don’t get suckered into buying from someone who is just a middleman finding properties on the MLS, you’re not going to get good cash returns!

Key Takeaways:

Dave shares a little bit about himself and his business.
Dave and his business partner started this business as landlords first (buy and hold), so they’ve become very familiar with landlord and tenant laws.
What is a turnkey property?
Who are Dave’s clients typically?
Key point: If you’re looking to buy a turnkey property, make sure you work with someone who has managed the rehab and tenant placement. Don’t work with middleman parties who just find deals from the MLS!
Dave explains the difference between A, B, and C class properties and why they matter for turnkey.
What property class makes sense to pursue in a case like this?
Never buy a property if it doesn’t come with an inspection report. Get a third party, licensed, inspection report!

Alex shares a couple of examples on today’s podcast on how someone can better structure their deals so that you create win-win scenarios for your investors, sellers, and yourself. Discover what you’re good at and what kind of value you can bring to the table. You don’t always need to get 100% of the deal.

Key Takeaways:

Don’t have _____ to help you get deals? Alex has a couple of solutions for you.
How can you add value to your sellers and investors?
Why would anybody really sell their house 50 cents on the dollar?
Put your creative hat on and think of ways you can help your seller.
Remember, it never hurts to ask, even if it might sound ‘ridiculous.’ You don't ask, you don't get.
You don’t have to do all the hard work to pull in 100% of the deal. You can get a smaller % of the deal and it will still be good for your business.
Alex shares an example of what a friend of his is doing to own properties free and clear and get 50% of the cash flow.

Alex recently had a tough and raw meeting with his leadership team. Some of his team members (and Alex too) were not completing certain tasks by their assigned due date and had to keep pushing the date further down. Alex realized that as a leader, you have to set the example and hold yourself accountable. On the call, Alex challenged himself and his team to keep each other accountable and to always keep pushing each other to a higher standard.

Key Takeaways:

Alex just got off of a really raw L10 meeting with his team.
Leadership starts with holding yourself accountable first.
As a leader of your team, you’re setting the example.
Alex had to push some of his tasks down for another day because he couldn’t complete the deadline. That’s setting a bad example of what’s okay to do within the team.
Alex asked his team to hold him accountable so that the company could keep the same level of high standards.
Make sure you set the highest standards possible.
Tell people what you expect, because you get what you expect.

Callahan Brown is a young and motivated real estate investor. Throughout college, all Callahan focused on was baseball and real estate. Finally, he decided to get out of analysis paralysis and take action. Now, at 23, Callahan is being mentored by Alex to up his game and close more deals.

Key Takeaways:

Alex has been mentoring Callahan since 2017.
Callahan is only 23 years old and has a mission to read a book a week this year.
Who is Callahan?
Callahan always thought being able to sell real estate without money was a scam. It just didn’t make sense how someone could make money without money in real estate.
When Callahan discovered wholesaling, how did he build his experience and take action?
Callahan was so uncomfortable about entering a seller’s home that he was about to quit real estate altogether.
There’s going to be times in your career where you’ll be scared and you’ll feel like running away. Don’t! It’s a sign you’re moving forward.
Enjoy the process right now. That car or that house isn’t going to make you as happy as you think it will.
Callahan joined Toastmasters to help boost his skills and get better at speaking. It’s like a muscle that needs to be worked on every day.
How has mentorship helped Callahan?
Alex has spent so much money on coaching and mentorship, but he doesn’t look at it as an expense. It’s a powerful investment!
We all have fears and we all have insecurities, but you have to overcome them if you wish to achieve your goals!
What’s next for Callahan?

Wholesalers are missing a huge opportunity by not tracking certain key data points. Alex wishes he had been better at tracking early on in his business because the knowledge he has gained has become invaluable. Simply by tracking some key data points, Alex has been able to increase his spreads. On today’s show, he shares what data points you should be looking for and how they help you get more deals in the long run.

Key Takeaways:

There’s a missed opportunity happening when you close deals.
It’s important to analyze your deals. Why did that deal close? Why didn’t it close? These are important questions you need to ask yourself.
If you’re not documenting and tracking important data points, you’re not learning from it.
Alex shares what data points he’s been tracking within a spreadsheet.
You guys need to be getting better from every appointment you go on and every deal you close.
The information that you plan to track, make sure you actually plan to use it. Don’t just track for the sake of tracking if the data point won’t be useful to you.
What property characteristics does Alex look for?
What other data points does Alex also track?
Alex wishes he’d started tracking these data points sooner.

Cris Chico has officially been on the Flip Empire Show three times! Cris is a trailblazer when it comes to the wholesale market and well-known investors have learned off of Cris’s materials. He first introduced the concept of virtual wholesaling as well as generating eye-catching direct-mail copy that almost everybody in the industry uses! On today’s show, Cris shares what he has learned about Facebook ads and discusses how you can leverage this as another marketing tool.

Key Takeaways:

Why use Facebook ads?
- Google PPC (Pay Per Click) is very expensive.
- Direct mail is still viable but in some markets you need to push a lot of money towards the budget.
- With Facebook, you can get up and running in a matter of few hours in any market of the country and begin producing leads.
- You can produce leads for BOTH buyers and sellers.
- Your buyers and sellers are on Facebook so you should also be there marketing.
- Not as difficult as PPC - You don’t even need a website.
The 3 Secrets to Making Facebook work.
- 1) Target the zipcodes you would mail.
  - A bad facebook approach is to target the entire county/area.
  - You’ll end up paying a lot more per lead because you’re going to be targeting such a large area.
  - You should target just as if you would with direct mail - focus in on the top 3-5-7 zipcodes.
  - Get a list of cash buyers of the last 6 months in your county and pick the zipcodes with the most investor activity.
- 2) Be personal NOT corporate.
  - When Cris was starting out he did what most investors were doing.
  - General “we buy houses” ads with stock images do not work at all. Or advertising as a company.
  - What Cris did instead was a more personal approach. “Cris buys houses.” or “I buy houses.”
  - People do business with an individual NOT a company.
  - Cris will give you guys a sample ad at the end of the call.
  - Quick action steps:
    - Your business page should be a personal pages.
    - Images of you and your family. Show them that you’re ahuman being.
- 3) Facebook is interruption marketing.
  - Although facebook is very much interest-based, Cris’s campaigns ARE NOT.
  - Sellers are not actively engaged with investors or looking for them.. we have to interrupt the sellers.
  - You have to target only the zipcodes with the appropriate age demographics - that is why we need to laser target the zipcodes with the most investor activity.
What makes a great Facebook ad?
- 80% is the image. Grab The Ultimate Digital Bandit Sign Here
  A picture of the seller’s neighbourhood or zipcode is GOLD.
- Coming across like an individual NOT a corporation
- Multiple ad copy approaches for every avatar
- Personalized, “I need to buy a house in ZIPCODE.”
What budget does Cris recommend you start with?
What is the average cost per lead?
What types of results is Cris seeing with his clients?

Jeff Watson is an attorney who had an active trial and hearing practice for more than 25 years. Today, Jeff is a nationally-recognized authority regarding regulatory concerns with wholesaling and offers general counsel to the National Real Estate Investors Association as well as advises four different national organizations with a combined membership of over 100,000 investors. On top of all that, he’s been a real estate investor since 1993. Today’s episode isn’t meant to scare you, but to help nudge you in the right direction so that your business does not get on the wrong side of the law!

Key Takeaways:

This podcast is not meant to scare you!
Who is Jeff and what does he do?
What are some of the legal issues wholesalers need to be aware of?
All wholesalers need to understand that you’re always acting as a principal. You’re either a buyer or a seller, and that’s it. You’re not a matchmaker.
Jeff loves double closes. He explains why.
Imagine being able to do fewer deals and make more money. That’s what double closing can do for you.
When was the last time you personally sat down and read your own state’s real estate license law particularly in reference to the definition of a real estate broker?
Unless you’re a licensed agent, you cannot be doing this activity unless you buy the property yourself and sell it yourself.
However, despite this, Jeff does not recommend you become a licensed real estate agent. Why?
What mistakes does Jeff see wholesalers make?
What’s the best way to market a contract?
Why does Jeff absolutely despise co-wholesaling?
Jeff remembers going to a real estate/wholesale seminar back in the 80’s and what they were teaching was illegal. The same remains true today. People just aren’t aware of the laws.
How many serious cases have occurred due to wholesalers not following the law?
How can someone who’s been doing things the wrong way recover and start doing things the right way?
Never blow off an investigator.
Remember, learn from your mistakes and make corrections to move forward legally.

Alex received a listener question about how to get deals on a small marketing budget. Direct Mail and Cold Calling is great but remember that time is also an asset. If you don’t have money, then chances are you have time. Alex shares examples of what a little bit of networking can do for you and your business without it costing you a single cent!

Key Takeaways:

How can we generate more leads, and close more deals if we don’t have a marketing budget?
Start planting seeds with people you meet (don’t be annoying about it, though).
Alex shares an example of what he means by ‘planting seeds.’
Remember, don’t judge a book by its cover.
Alex’s UPS driver has sent him 13 leads. That all came from just talking to someone!
Everybody out there either knows somebody looking to buy a house, sell a house, and/or knows somebody with money.
Whenever you want to do something, ask yourself, “How can I?” Don’t allow your brain to think of the negative ways you can’t.
AGAIN!!! Always start the question with ‘How can I?’

To celebrate the big 200, Alex invites Erik Stark back onto the show to talk about giving back and the importance of going above and beyond for the people in your community. Last year, Alex and Erik made a big impact by hosting a Holiday Mastermind to help victims of Hurricane Irma get back on their feet. This year, they will be hosting a similar event in Bimini (Bahamas), in mid-July to support We Are GRACES. If you’re interested in this mastermind, reach out to Alex for more info!

Key Takeaways:

THANK YOU!!! 200 episodes is a milestone for this podcast, and I appreciate you for supporting the show.
Alex personally believes in giving back regularly and being a servant of God. Erik also has similar beliefs and shares why giving back is so important.
One of the worst things that can happen to you is you die and you didn’t live your full potential.
Alex inspired Erik to move down from Michigan to South Florida to start a new life with his family.
How did Alex and Erik start the Holiday Mastermind?
When the Hurricane Irma hit, the destruction was bad and here Erik was selflessly giving back to the community. To be honest, Alex felt guilty he wasn’t doing enough.
Don’t sit on your hands. If you think you can do something, do it. Too many people wait for others to lead when it can be YOU!
Last Christmas, the charity work Alex and Erik did brought smiles to about 100 children who virtually had nothing.
One person can impact an entire generation or family. One person!
What were some of the key takeaways that Erik learned at the holiday mastermind?
Want to support the Holiday Mastermind? Alex and Erik are hosting the next one in Bimini (Bahamas) in mid-July.

Alex shares some wisdom on how to keep a steady flow of cash buyers in your pipeline. If you don’t have any cash buyers to turn to when you’ve locked up a contract, then you don’t have a deal! As the market shifts, you’re going to find it harder and harder to get a cash buyer, so it’s important to develop and build those relationships now before it’s too late.

Key Takeaways:

Keep an eye out for episode 200!

Buyers are getting cautious right now.
Make sure you have KPIs on how many potential buyers you speak with.

Take one action on this and get to work!

Alex recently had three deals fall through and he felt absolutely awful about it. He tried to ask himself how he and his team could have handled those deals better, but really there was nothing much for them to do. It’s okay to let yourself be human and feel disappointed/sad/etc, but don’t let yourself get stuck in that rut. Keep your head up and keep moving forward!

Key Takeaways:

Alex is about to hit 200 episodes!
Please leave a review on iTunes if you can! It helps out the show.
Next week Alex is headed off to Scottsdale to attend a multi-level mastermind.
It’s important to be intentional about what you want.
Recently, Alex had three deals fall through.
Life isn’t always going to go according to plan.
You’re either going to win or you’re going to learn.
Give yourself some time to be human, but don’t get stuck in negative emotions.
You have the power to control your thoughts and your feelings. Don’t let anyone take that away from you.
Remember, people are your assets.

Alex recently got back from a mastermind and took away some really good points. One of them being is that as the leader of your company, your job isn’t 100% all about building the product you’re selling; your job is to build the team. A good team will help take you way further than no team. As a leader, you want to bring your team up and serve/help them to the best of your ability, not just manage them.

Key Takeaways:

It’s important to implement good ideas right away. Don’t wait!
Are you thinking like a leader?
As the CEO, it’s your job to build the team, not so much the product. Your team builds the product.
Don’t just look at yourself as CEO, look at yourself as a coach as well. Provide your team with real leadership. Don’t just ‘manage’ them.
You want your team to be better people in life and professionally.
Things get better in your life when you serve others.
It’s cliche, but true. Your network is your net worth.
The quality of your relationships is going to directly impact the type of person you are and the type of life you live.

This is Ramon (Ray) Gonzalez’s third appearance on the show! Alex and Ray go way back and this week’s episode focuses on why mindset, surrounding yourself with amazing people, and holding yourself to a higher standard are so, so important for you, your family, and your business.

You’re never going to get more than whatever you think you’re worth.

Remember, relationships are built over time.
People can tell if you’re being fake or if you’re being sincere and genuine.
What kinds of benefits can you get from attending a high-level mastermind?
When we pay — that’s when we pay attention.
You have to do your own pushups. No one else is going to do it for you.

Key Takeaways:

Always strive to improve yourself. Find people who lift you up.

Flood your body with water when you wake up. Your body is dehydrated!
Alex watches his vision video every morning while he’s brushing his teeth.
Goals are kind of meaningless until there’s a strong reason attached to them. When you write down your goals, make sure they MEAN something to you.

Alex read a really good blog post on Michael Hyatt’s blog by Mark Miller. In the article, Mark outlines what top talent needs from their company in order to keep their attention long term. Turns out, money can only get them so far before they start to look elsewhere. Find out on today’s episode what — REALLY — attracts and keeps top talent.

Key Takeaways:

One of Alex’s goals this year was to help more people but to also empower and bring up his team, too.
How are you attracting your top talent?
Money does not attract top talent long-term.
Your team will not last forever. People will leave. However, that doesn’t mean you should make bad hires because that’s going to set you back.
Top talent wants a better boss. People want their boss to care about them professionally and personally.
Top talent wants to know that there’s growth ahead. They want to be challenged.
Top talent wants a company with purpose. They want to work with a company that’s aligned with their values.
Why does your company exist? What’s your purpose?

Alex recently spoke with a super successful wholesaler and he gave Alex some very enlightening advice that is making him reconsider some things...

Key Takeaways:

This guy has a team of 18 people and is doing around 25 wholesale deals a month.
Alex was typing so fast in his phone trying to make notes and keep up with him!
First tip: Make sure you are taking your calls live.
Have a backup method in case your acquisitions managers can’t answer the call live.
Track these KPIs weekly!
Acquisition managers should honestly be solely focused on going on appointments and closing. Answering live calls/following from unqualified leads is a distraction for them.
Alex is in the process of scaling up. What does that look like from a logistics perspective?
Out of 12 appointments, the team was able to close 4 of them.
Email is getting drowned out. Open rates are very low.
You have to go above and beyond for sellers.

Alex has three quick takeaways from this week’s show. He has seen a lot of growth happening in his business over the last 90 days to the point where it’s almost surprising how much you can really get done in just 3 months. Alex is also increasing his direct-mail campaigns by about 4-5 times and with that comes some new challenges. On this week’s show, Alex offers some simple reminders so that you don’t get complacent about your success.

Key Takeaways:

There is so much you can accomplish in a three-month period. Be intentional and do the work.
Don’t strive for perfection, strive to be better.
Stop following someone else’s success story. Social media can be deceiving.
Stick to the basics. The fundamentals aren’t sexy, but they’ll get you to where you need to go.
Alex is now 4 to 5X-ing his direct-mail campaign, and with that comes some challenges.
When Alex was growing up, he wanted to become a professional athlete. From his father to his coaches, they would all break it down and focus on the basics so that he could get better.
Go back to the basics and just be consistent with it!

This week’s master class features Alex doing a solo show in front of his inner circle webinar class. He condenses down three days of training into a quick 20-minute takeaway session on what he learned during these implementation meetings. This knowledge has been so helpful for the business. Everything from goal setting, KPI tracking, to more organized and efficient meetings, and identifying core values for the company have helped the team excel and grow exponentially.

Key Takeaways:

What did the one-day and two-day EOS implementation even look like for Alex and his team?
A lot of people are tracking the wrong KPIs.
Usually, meetings are structured in an inefficient way.
Alex breaks down what a ‘good’ meeting looks like.
Some of the KPIs Alex and his team were tracking actually made no sense to do.
The heart of the Level 10 meeting is getting to all the ‘issues’ in the business, to which you dedicate a total of 60 minutes to tackle.
The problem with a lot of these meetings is things get talked about, but nothing ends up getting done.
At the end of the meeting, you then rate it from on a scale of 1-10 on how well it went. This gives you feedback from the team on how to make the meetings better in the future.
Core values are so, so, so, so important for the company and they are instrumental in developing company culture.
Why do you do what you do?
Also during the two-day event, Alex and his team took a hard look at their ideal customer avatar.

When you set your intentions, good things happen. Alex recently got the office space he wanted, which is literally minutes away from his house and the building had a waiting list on it! How did he do it? Persistence and commitment, but most importantly, setting the intention and not giving up.

Key Takeaways:

Be insanely intentional about what you want and why you want it.
What are your needs and what are your wants? Assess your priorities and then come up with a plan.
Three years ago, Alex’s average profit per deal was hovering between $12 - $13K.
When Alex set the intention to aim for $20K per deal … Guess what … his team did it.
You’ve got to get buy-in from your team.
If you don’t ask, then you don’t receive.
Alex never wanted an office, but with two young children running around at home, Alex couldn’t work from home anymore and had to find office space.
Since Alex wanted something within a 5-minute drive, Alex started knocking on businesses’ doors looking for office space!
Doughnuts! Doughnuts are your friends.
This is the perfect example of what being insanely intentional and committed to something looks like.
Sometimes you gotta think a little bit outside of the box and get creative.
Know why you want something, set your sights on it, and then don’t take no for an answer.
The more nos you get, the closer you are to a yes.

This week’s episode is all about KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and why you should be tracking them! If you want to reach a certain income goal but are not tracking how many leads get converted into deals, then you’re seriously flying blind. On the show, Alex offers advice as to what you should be tracking and even gives a full breakdown of what he and his team are currently keeping track of.

Key Takeaways:

Business owners tend to get caught in a money hamster wheel and their relationships and health end up suffering. This is why Alex goes to masterminds and resonates a lot with Lifeonaire’s message.
Let’s talk KPIs!
You’re flying blind without your KPIs.
You have to know where you stand on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
Alex talks about some of his KPIs and what they mean to his business.
Don’t get caught up in the number too badly, but at least set a goal and reverse engineer it.
You can’t always control the number, BUT you can control your effort.
Take your ultimate goal and divide that by your average profit per transaction; that equals how many deals you need to close.
What’s your conversion ratio when you get in front of a seller?
Do you sell your contract 100% of the time?
How many leads does it take to get an appointment?
What metrics does Alex track to help him?

Every year, Alex takes time to reflect on the good and the bad of the business and sets his new intentions for the new year. For this year’s theme, he has four words to help him: Clarity, Focus, Execution, and Consistency. When setting goals for 2018, make sure there’s a strong meaning and ‘why’ behind them. If things get tough and you don’t have the motivation to complete the tasks, your why is going to be what brings you back and pushing through the discomfort.

Key Takeaways:

Every year Alex takes time to reflect on his business. What worked and what didn’t work.
The word for 2017 was ‘consistency’ and followed through on this theme.
This year’s theme comes in four words: Clarity, Focus, Execution, and Consistency.
There are two main things Alex wants to focus on this year — growing his wholesaling business and serving you through this podcast.
With any business it can be boiled down to 3 things: lead generation, lead conversion, increasing your margins.
This year, Alex will have 4x the output he did in 2017.
After reading Traction, Alex is now implementing an EOS coach for the team.
When you look at your goals for 2018, ask yourself, “What’s going to be different?”
Alex wants to become a better leader this year and empower his team. He wants them to become better leaders and better versions of themselves.
When you empower your team, don’t take that autonomy away. Allow them to make mistakes.
Consistency is still so critical in everything that you do. That’s why it still remains in Alex’s theme for this year!
Make sure you have a strong ‘why’ behind your goals. This will help keep you motivated!
Push yourself when you don’t feel like working on a task. You will feel better after you complete it!

Tracy Royce is the Owner of Royce of Real Estate and she is currently based out of Arizona. For a long time, Tracy worked behind the scenes in real estate before branching out and doing her own business. On today’s show, Tracy shares advice on how to safely quit your day job and transition yourself into real estate full-time without living paycheck to paycheck. We go into business for ourselves to build a lifestyle we want, so be smart and find creative ways to get things done with the time you have.

Key Takeaways:

Who is Tracy and how did she get started in real estate?
If you want to level up in this business, don’t be afraid to reach out to other investors. We’re nice!
It’s about developing a give and take relationship. You can’t be the one just taking and taking.
When should someone go full-time in this business and leave their job?
Think about your future before you quit. If two to three deals don’t go through, will you still be okay financially?
Instead of quitting your job, get creative with your time.
Don’t put yourself in a position where you need the money so badly that you are willing to make bad decisions.
Don’t get too comfortable with the automation. Knock on some doors and get yourself physically out there.
TV shows might make this appear sexy, but at the end of the day it’s still a business and you do sometimes have to grind through to get what you want.
How does Tracy structure her team and business?
Tracy loves hiring virtual assistants.
Tracy has processes and standard operating procedures (SOPs) in place to help set her employees up for success.
Before Alex knew better, he hired fast and fired slow. This approach obviously ended up to be very costly for him.
What were some of the mistakes Tracy made along the way when it came to hiring and building a team?
Sometimes people are really great on paper, but end up being a mess when they get their feet running.
It’s so easy to grind and hustle on the business, but remember why you opened one in the first place… to have freedom!
You only get one life, so set yourself up so that you enjoy the journey and what you do.
What’s the one piece of advice Tracy would give to her 20-year-old self?

Alex recently attended the Collective Genius Mastermind and he was blown away by the brain power in that room. Alex heard a talk from Darren Hardy, who shared excellent advice and tips on how to be a more mindful and productive business owner. On today’s show, Alex shares some of his key takeaways that he’s learned from the event.

Key Takeaways:

Alex recently went to the Collective Genius Mastermind in San Diego.
Insane FOCUS on a few things is paramount to your level of success.
How much money do you really lose by not being focused?
Whenever you have a distraction, it takes you 23 minutes for you to regain focus back on your task.
Come up with a list of things you need to stop doing.
What is Warren Buffett’s key to success? Saying NO!
What are Darren Hardy’s vital strengths as a person?
As an entrepreneur that wears so many hats, write down all of your priorities. Narrow that list down to 2-3 top priorities, and then, scrap everything else.
Try the Pomodoro technique and carve out 90-minute intervals where you focus on one thing for those 90 minutes.
You need to get clear on your vision, mission, and purpose. If you aren’t sure, then you gotta take a few steps back and get this piece correct. It’s the foundation of your business.
Alex is excited to be implementing EOS this new year to improve his business.

Welcome back! Alex continues the second part of the show by talking about the takeaways he’s learned from the holiday mastermind. If you missed the first part, be sure to listen to episode 163 before listening to this one! One of the biggest things Alex learned was from Mark Evans, who said that he’s always looking for ways to pay more for things, not less. What does he mean by that? The essence is to stop trying to get everything so cheap. You gotta stop trying to pay your staff and the people you work with less than their worth. It’s only going to lead to bad business.

Key Takeaways:

If you missed last week’s episode, be sure to listen to Episode 163 to catch up!
Alex does a very quick recap.
8 - How do you keep your team accountable?
At the end of the day, the true accountability is in hiring an A player who knows how to keep themselves accountable. Give them a job description and some KPIs and then let them do what they do best.
The moment you realize you don’t have the right person on your team, let them go. Don’t hold on. It’s tough, but it needs to be done.
9 - Stop paying attention to social media!
Not everything you see on social media is real. How can you better use that time to improve yourself instead of focusing on the lives of others?
10 - How can you make your team members more successful?
Mark Evans is constantly looking for ways to pay more for things, not less, because he wants to help make his team more successful.
Disclaimer: Don’t spend money away carelessly with no thought. That’s not what Mark and Alex mean by spending more!
11 - Get comfortable with feeling uncomfortable.
When you feel uncomfortable/pain, it usually means you’re growing as a person.
By the way, Alex is hiring! If you’re local in the South Florida area, email Alex!
Happy New Year! Just remember, you gotta put in the time and work hard.

Adrian Nez is a real estate investor and works with Trevor Mauch at Investor Carrot. He is an expert at online lead generation and conversion optimization. Last week’s master class episode focused on the balance of living life and running a business, but this week Alex and Adrian will be getting into how to market more effectively to your ideal clients. The standard marketing tactics just don’t work anymore, you gotta get smarter and stand out from your competition!

Key Takeaways:

Be sure to listen to Episode 162! Alex does a quick recap on what you might have missed.
Some people focus too much on the platforms instead of the marketing 101s.
Do you have a traffic problem or a conversion problem? That’s what you need to figure out first.
As people and marketers, we tend to blame the tools but never ourselves.
Who is your ideal customer? What’s their true problem? Don’t overlook the customer.
Sellers are suspicious of us. What we’re offering sounds too good to be true, so it’s important to take a step back and understand the psychology of a motivated seller.
There are news pieces that run all the time about the dangers of Craigslist and cold call scammers.
People are more educated now. The markets tactics that worked 10 years ago, just don’t work anymore because everyone is doing it.
Put your customer in the forefront and you’ll have an easier time figuring out where and how to market to them.
How do you discover who your ideal customer is?
Adrian shares some of his ad retargeting tips.

Adrian Nez is a real estate investor and works with Trevor Mauch at Investor Carrot. He is an expert at online lead generation and conversion optimization. On today’s episode, Alex decided to split Adrian’s interview into two parts. This first part dives into Adrian’s personal journey. He reveals that he stopped trusting in God when he became successful and that was a big, big mistake. The second episode dives into Adrian’s expertise, inbound marketing, and how he uses it to grow his business.

Key Takeaways:

Adrian shares his story on this week’s episode and really get personal with some of the mistakes he's made. This is why Alex has broken the interview up into two parts.
Part 1 will dive into Adrian’s journey and how to structure balance in your life and part 2 will be diving into how you can grow your business through inbound marketing.
Who is Adrian and how did he get into real estate?
Adrian’s inbound marketing career started at Investor Carrot, which is Trevor Mauch’s company (Trevor has been a guest on the show).
Anytime you serve, you’re sowing seeds for your future.
When you have faith in God, He will always deliver.
It wasn’t easy for Adrian to pack up and move to West Virginia, but he knew he had a calling and God was sending him a message. He believes sometimes people ignore those messages because they’re afraid of the unknown. You need to have faith He will take care of you.
With that being said, Adrian was working very hard and he began to lose focus on what really mattered. The relationship with his wife ended up suffering for it.
Unless you keep a solid relationship with God, everything else begins to crumble and that was Adrian’s downfall. He stopped trusting in God.
Adrian trusted Him when he didn’t know where to go, but then when success came his way, he lost his way.
It’s important to surround yourself with the right people who share your same values and understand what it’s like running a business.
It’s also important to be transparent about the struggles you’re going through. It helps others not feel ‘so alone.’
Sometimes people don’t share these personal struggles because they feel as though they need to think positive, but Adrian admits that’s just not the reality for people going through hard times. You gotta talk about it and get support.
Adrian highly recommends watching the ESPN documentary about Ric Flair. His passion ended up being his disease. Any business owner can relate to Ric’s story.
Find a mentor that’s 2-3 years ahead of you. They can still teach you what they’re great at because it’s so fresh for them.
Don’t let your ambition and vision be turned into a curse 20 or 30 years down the line.

Alex recently raised $15,000 for charity. This money will be used to buy toys for the children who were displaced by Hurricane Irma. However, to be completely honest, Alex was thinking too small about this charity event. His original idea was only going to generate a couple of hundred toys for these children, but by talking to his friend Mark Evans (who runs a very high-level business), he was able to think bigger and raise his game. Because of it, Alex is now able to donate a couple of thousand toys and will be able to help many more children.

In the meat and potatoes of the episode, Alex dives into how you can help your sellers not go through ‘seller’s remorse.’ This is something Alex and his team have been perfecting over the year and Alex shares the things they’ve been doing to not lose their sellers mid-way through a deal. These tactics are especially helpful in hot, hot markets!

Key Takeaways:

Thank you for your support! Hopefully you’ve had a great year and have become a better version of yourself!
A couple of weeks ago Alex and Eric Stark hosted their first holiday mastermind in the local South Florida area. They raised over $15k!
They will be donating this money to over 500 kids whose families were displaced by Hurricane Irma.
Alex credits Mark Evans for helping him think ‘bigger’ about to help these families.
Alex wants to challenge you to think bigger as we head into the new year.
Alex, Eric, and Mark are thinking about how they can 10x this charity event for the next year.
Have a conversation with someone who is operating on a higher level than you. They will help you elevate your game and help you think bigger.
Use your platform, like your social media accounts, for good.
Interested in what the charity work Eric is doing? Reach out to Alex!
How can you prevent seller’s remorse?
Before you sign that contract, make sure you get 100% buy-in from that seller.
Sellers can not take their signed contract seriously and they can really do damage/waste your time.
When you want to try to convince a seller to work exclusively with you, tell a cautionary (and true) story about the consequences. Alex shares an example of what he means by this.
After a successful closing, ask the seller for feedback! Ask them why they picked you over other people.
Always keep in contact and communicate with your seller. One of Alex’s transaction coordinators sometimes talks daily with their sellers.

Gabriel Garcia is the Vice President of FL Home Cash Buyers, LLC. Gabriel started wholesaling in 2013 and today he and his business partner are hitting 7-figures. How did Gabriel go from one deal to 90 within a short amount of time? How does he do it without killing himself on 80-hour work weeks and sacrificing family life? Gabriel goes into a deep dive on how he made it all work without compromising his values and vision and also shares the business principles (that you can use no matter what industry you’re in) he learned from losing $200,000 on failed rehab projects.

Key Takeaways:

Gabriel got really serious about real estate investing in 2013. Fast forward to today and he and his partner have a 7-figure a year business. How did Gabriel grow so fast?
Who is Gabriel and why did he get into real estate?
Gabriel closed his first deal, with the help of a mentor, in 4-5 months after starting.
Today, Gabriel is looking to do about $2,000.000 in revenue and 90 wholesale deals. In the month of November, he had a $300,000 revenue, his best month ever!
At the end of the day, it comes down to vision. It comes down making a decision on what you want your life to look like.
What do you want your business to do for you and your family? Start with the end in mind.
How did Gabriel go from closing one deal a month to today? How did he do it without working his face off?
Again, it’s all about the mindset. It sounds crazy/unbelievable, but it’s the driving force.
Set your boundaries. There were plenty of times where Gabriel and his business partner could have worked weekends, but they never did.
Instead of hustling on Fridays like everyone else, Gabriel would sit and discuss ways to make the business better and if they were still being true to their vision.
The challenges in your life are what sharpen your expertise!
Gabriel also does rehabs on top of wholesaling. How was he able to get into two niches without killing himself?
Gabriel talks about a cash flow formula that has really helped him. He learned it from the book Scaling Up.
The more successful you become the more opportunities that come your way. This is actually a bad thing because it then becomes that much harder to avoid shiny object syndrome.
What will this new opportunity cost you? You have to weigh the pros and cons.
What CRM does Gabriel use?
Where does Gabriel see the market going in the next six-months-to-a-year?
Gabriel lost $200,000 this year. Because of it, he set systems in place to never be in a position like that again. Your business needs a cushion to sit on.
Your personal life and your business both need an ‘oh no’ fund.
Gabriel puts 6% away into his profit account and then puts another 5% into the tax account after every single closing. He makes sure everything is covered and there are no surprises.
What are Gabriel’s thoughts on how to build long-term wealth?

Alex was recently asked a question on how to host an effective ‘power day’ for your team. Power days are basically quarterly meetings with the team where you brainstorm, make the business process more efficient, and set new quarterly goals to pursue. Alex meets with four out of the six members of his team from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and works with them on how they can make the business better. On the show, he shares what a typical power day agenda looks like for him, but he’s open to feedback on how he can make it better!

Key Takeaways:

Thank you for reaching out and giving feedback! Quick shout out to those who have reached out!
Alex recently opened a Patreon account in case you’d like to support the show!
Alex has been recording two shows a week since January 6, 2016!
Felipe Bossans and Jesús Toledo just closed a monster deal and Alex is incredibly happy for them!
Jesús asked Alex to dive a little deeper on his team structure.
Once a quarter, Alex physically meets with his team and hosts a power day from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. to strategize and set goals.
In the book Traction, it discusses how to effectively structure these power days.
Alex shares what a typical team meeting agenda might look like.
Last time Alex and his team met, one of the biggest challenges they were facing was with sellers backing out of deals.
When you’re setting goals, you gotta make sure everyone is rowing in the same direction. You gotta get buy-in from your team members.
Alex is open to your feedback on how to better structure team power days. Reach out to him!

Felipe Bossans and Jesús Toledo are new to the business, but that hasn't stopped them from crushing it out of the gate! Felipe and Jesús were wholesaling on the side and closed three deals over the course of a couple of months, but decided to go full time in June. They reached out to Alex for mentorship and with a little bit of guidance were able to close and net $82,000 in profit on their 5th deal!. BOOM! Find out how they did it, on this week’s masterclass.

Key Takeaways:

Felipe and Jesús recently closed an $82,000 wholesale deal. Details covered in this master class :-)
Felipe and Jesús reached out to Alex for coffee. They were seeking mentorship and they were hungry!
Who are Felipe and Jesús? How did they meet and become partners?
How did Felipe and Jesús get started in real estate?
In November of 2016, these guys had no idea what wholesaling even was!
They were able to close three deals within a couple of months of getting started. How did they do it?
However, they were still struggling to ‘make it.’ That’s why they decided to reach out to Alex.
What kind of challenges did Felipe and Jesús have?
Alex has been in this business since 2005 and he’s still learning new ways to better his business.
Since going full-time in June, how many deals have Felipe and Jesús done so far?

They spent less than $1,000 to get the right lists they needed.
How did they come up with their point system and figure out which list to target first?
Let’s break it down how they found this $82K deal. When Felipe cold called the guy, what happened?
Focus on the person, not on the money or on their property.
How did Felipe and Jesús end up marketing the contract?
Felipe and Jesús almost lost the deal because the seller was becoming stressed out.
Always walk your sellers through what’s going to happen next.
What were some of the biggest lessons Felipe and Jesús learned during this process?
If you’re struggling, remember that we’re problem solvers and we need to have solution-oriented thinking.

Alex made a mistake last holiday seasons by slowing down his marketing efforts. Because of it, January started off a little slow for him and his team. In this quick episode, Alex just wants to remind you that you shouldn’t be slacking off on your marketing efforts, even if the year is coming to an end.

Key Takeaways:

Got a quick show for you today.
Last year, Alex stopped marketing around the holidays. Big mistake!
It’s the holidays; now is the time to double down on your marketing!
In January, Alex had a slow start because he slowed his marketing down in December.
Ideally, you should have a marketing campaign out every week.
Take advantage of the fact that your competition will be taking a break.
Your business shouldn’t start and stop with just you. You need to leverage your team, especially during the holidays!

When Dan Zitofsky was 18 years old, he got a 30% FHA loan and bought his first condo with it. While in the Navy, he was making more money on his condo than on his salary. This is when things really started to click for him. When he got out of the military, he jumped into real estate.

However, it slowly became more and more a job for him and not the freedom lifestyle he wanted for himself. On today’s show, Dan talks about his real estate journey, why he prefers paying off his debt straight away, and why notes have really helped him develop the REAL passive income lifestyle we all desire.

Key Takeaways:

Truth be told, there isn’t a lot of passive income from just being a landlord.
Who is Dan and what does his business look like today?
After nearly having a breakdown from stress, Dan knew there had to be a better way to do his business.
Dan only holds notes on properties he’s willing to own.
What’s the difference between an active investor vs. passive investor?
Anytime you own debt, you also own risk. If a downturn happens, things can really go south for you.
Dan shares a case study and explains a bit more how he creates long-term wealth.
Dan got an 85% return on his money.
Dan does recommend buying some rental properties. Once you’ve bought them, focus on paying those mortgages off as fast as possible, and then selling those properties to investors on a note.
The best part is Dan doesn’t deal with a high-volume of investors. Last year he did 182 properties with only 18 investors. They were high-quality and easy to manage.
How does Dan usually structure his deals?
Dan talks about why he doesn’t like selling partial notes anymore.
How can a wholesale beginner get into this note space?
Get out of debt as quickly as possible.
Remember, invest in yourself first.
Check out Dan’s training! Link in the show notes below.

Alex received a listener question asking what’s the best CRM out there. Any tool you pick will work, but the question is, do you work? So often people get the ‘latest and greatest’ tools, but forget one key thing — working hard (and smart)! Remember, there is no silver bullet to this. You gotta put in the work.

Key Takeaways:

What’s the best CRM out there?
There is no perfect system out there, but they all work.
Remember, no tool or resource is just going to make you money right off the bat.
When Alex was first starting out, he didn’t have a CRM. He used pen, paper, and post it notes.
Remember, it’s only a failure if you didn’t learn.
Hopefully when you’re looking for a new tool, it’s a compliment to what you’re already doing, not the silver bullet!
If you’d like to network and connect with other people in your field, The Flip Empire Inner Circle is the place for you!

Alex invites Joe Evangelisti, a fellow real estate investor and podcaster, on to the show to discuss how the book Traction, by Gino Wickman has helped him improve his business and his processes. Alex is currently reading this book and he can already tell it’s going to be game-changing in his business. Find out why, in this week’s episode!

Key Takeaways:

You gotta check out the book Traction, by Gino Wickman.
Can you get away from your business for an extended period of time?
Who is Joe and what does his business look like today?
At what point did Joe realize he was in a rat race within his own business?
In the book Traction, there are 6 key components: Vision, People, Data, Issues, Process, and Traction.
How can people begin to implement this EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) model into their business?
Who should you hire first? That answer will differ for every entrepreneur.
While you're on this entrepreneurial journey, don’t forget to invest in yourself.
Did Joe run the idea of implementing the EOS model in his business by his team first or did he just go with it?

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

View Details

Alex offers some advice as to what you should do when you’re really struggling moving a contract / property. The best thing you can do is ask your potential buyers why they passed on it. If they say price, then maybe you can re-negotiate with the seller and save the deal. Remember, it only takes one buyer.

Key Takeaways:

Are you hearing crickets when it comes to marketing your contracts / properties?
Remember, it just takes one buyer.
Always solicit feedback from your potential buyers on why they might not be interested in this property.
If they tell you it's because of the price, get their #, and go back to the seller for a price reduction.
We all get a challenging deal every now and again and that’s when you gotta get more creative and a little bit more resourceful.

Are you playing all out? Alex recently went through an important exercise that made him realize he wasn’t. He encourages everyone to check out the Wheel of Life self-assessment tool and to rate themselves, honestly, from a scale of 0-10 on where they stand in certain key areas of their life. Alex believes if you’re hitting a 7 or less, you need to reevaluate your life’s priorities and get yourself running on all cylinders again!

Key Takeaways:

Alex is really reflecting on how this year turned out as things begin to slow down.
Alex recently went through an exercise called ‘The Wheel of Life’.
When you’re doing the exercise, you have to be incredibly honest with yourself on where you are right now in some of the key areas of your life.
Alex has always been his harshest critic. He’s guilty of comparing himself to where he should be in life.
Alex had to do the wheel of life exercise twice because he wanted to make sure he was truly, truly, being honest with himself.
On a scale of 0-10, if you’re putting down a 7 or less, then you really need to re-evaluate where you want to be and strive to get there.
For example, Alex is not running on a 10 with his health. He’s slightly overweight and he’s uncomfortable with this.
If you’re not playing all out, you’re doing yourself and your family a disservice!
Sometimes we know what we gotta do, but we just don’t do it! Man up!
You don’t need more courses, tools, and resources. You need to push yourself and work for what you want.

Alex received a very moving letter from Rafael, who quit his job to pursue wholesaling full time. Thank you for your emails and letters and just remember if you’re going through hard times, know that every obstacle you face will strengthen you. Keep pushing forward and keep taking small steps towards your goals!

Key Takeaways:

Thank you so much for your emails and giving Alex your feedback on what you think about the show.
Alex reads a listener email out loud!
Thank you, Rafael, for being vulnerable with your story.
Hopefully Rafael’s story inspires you and gives you fuel to improve your business.
Keep pushing towards your goals. There’s no such thing as overnight success.
Every obstacle you face will make you a better person.
What can you do to convert more appointments into deals?
Always make sure that a yes is great, but a no is fine as well to a potential seller. It takes some of the pressure off of them and they can relax while you’re touring their home.

This is Trevor Mauch’s second guest appearance on the show. One thing Trevor has realized over the years is people are not utilizing strategy effectively in their marketing campaigns. They’re throwing tactics against the wall and hoping something will stick. You need to have a bigger picture as to why something is working vs. not working. On the show, Trevor discusses marketing strategy and how you can cut through the noise and stand out from the crowd.

Key Takeaways:

If you can implement just a few things that Trevor and Alex talked about on the show, you WILL grow your business.
Trevor launched his podcast (Carrot Cast) last year, but it is one of Alex’s favorite podcasts that he regularly listens to.
If you missed Trevor’s first appearances on the show, check out the show notes for the link to it.
How can we differentiate ourselves from the competition?
The problem is people are using tactics that they learned from someone else, but they’re not customizing their strategy for their business and market.
You’re in the people business and you are also in the marketing business. Keep track of good marketing materials in your everyday life and analyze why it attracts attention. Build a "swipe file".
What is a good strategy you can adopt that will help cut through the noise?
You never want to compete on price. You will become the Walmart of real estate investors.
What kinds of things are Trevor’s Carrot clients doing to differentiate themselves?
In the vetting/verifying phrase, the customer knows what you can do, but now they’re trying to figure out how credible you are.
So many people are using testimonials wrong! Trevor explains why.
As the market gets cluttered and there are more solutions available to the seller, the testimonials will either make or break the buying decision.
How else can people break out and stand out from the crowd?
How can you properly ask for a testimonial? So many people are camera shy.
Every business has skeletons in their closet. Most people try to hide them, but this means your prospects will try extra hard to uncover those skeletons. So, what can you do to build trust when you know you have a weakness?
Mortgage professionals, real estate professionals, and attorneys are consistently considered and rated the most untrustworthy. It’s not the people working these jobs, it’s the process behind it. They’re not transparent with how they do things so people automatically think they’re being ripped off!
Give a step-by-step breakdown of how you came up with your offer to your prospects. Let them see the logic behind it all. This makes them physically see what their property is worth and they won’t feel ripped off with it.
How does Trevor help his clients with his software, Carrot?

Camilo Palacio is a living example of what the American Dream can do for you. Camilo is originally from Colombia, but moved to the U.S. and begin investing in real estate. Before the age of 30, he and his wife became financially independent. Now, Camilo works with international buyers from both Central and South America and helps them find, acquire, fix, and flip (or even rent) properties while his investors stay at home.

Key Takeaways:

Camilo and his wife just finished writing a book about their story and basically achieving the American Dream.
Camilo became financially free before he turned 30 through real estate investing with the help of rental properties.
Camilo has been in the U.S. for 17 years.
Camilo has set it up in such a way international investors can stay in their respective countries and trust that Camilo will find good deals for them in the United States.
What have been some of the differences Camilo has noticed between working with local buyers vs. international buyers?
Camilo is currently doing around 10-15 properties a month.
How has Camilo managed to get international buyers interested in being on his buyer’s list?

If you meet an international buyer that’s interested in coastal markets, build relationships with other wholesales!
Camilo and Alex both work in the same area, but they’re not competitors. They work together on joint ventures and when you have that mindset, it’s so much easier to build real connections.
Camilo is honest with his investors. He will tell them straight away if it’s a property worth buying or not.
How many people on Camilo’s buyer’s list are repeat customers?
Automating your business is a great thing, but there are some things a computer can’t do for you.

In Alex’s recent inner circle meeting, he got some great questions from his members. On today’s show, he discusses why he decided to stop using a call center and what he’s doing to build rapport instead. Also, he offers a couple of ways on how to eliminate bottlenecks in your business and teach your team how to get deals that will lead to profit.

Key Takeaways:

Alex has been getting a lot of great questions from the members of the inner circle program he has. Today, he shares a couple of quick questions he’s gotten.
Alex, do you use a call center for after hours or do your calls go to voicemail?
Hiring a call center was a big fail.
Call back the number ASAP. Every hour you miss, the harder it will be to reach the seller again.
Next question: How does your acquisitions team come up with a purchase price?
When this happens, it usually means there’s a bottleneck somewhere in your business.
Acquisitions and sales need to be on the same page, always.
You don’t want your team relying too heavily on you in order for the business to function.
If you’re getting feedback that you’re property is priced too high, ask your buyers what’s a reasonable price for them. You’re collecting valuable data here.
Got any questions for Alex? Feel free to ask him!
Please also leave a review! It really helps out the show.

Remember, you can outsource parts of your business so that you can focus on your own strengths/what you’re good at doing.

Again, nobody knows what’s best. Only you know what’s best.

Alex Pardo recently spoke to a new Inner Circle member and he was having some trouble managing his team. When you’re in a position to hire new staff, then it is incredibly important to set clear expectations as to what you should expect from them.

Also, creating a standard operating procedure document can help speed up the training process and it gets new hires more familiar with your business and expectations. The final piece to all of this and to avoid chaos in your business is to make sure your team has accountability. This way you can track results and not lose time and money!

Key Takeaways:

Do you feel like a chicken with its head cut off in your business right now?
Alex shares some of the challenges a new inner circle member is currently experiencing.
This inner circle member has 3-4 people on his team who are all kind of doing everything. Obviously, this is going to create a bit of chaos.
Alex likes to use the Position Agreements, which he learned about from Michael Gerber’s book The E-Myth.
Alex’s inner circle member felt overwhelmed, so Alex recommended that he just start in one department.

Andy McFarland has been a real estate investor since 2002. He owns a real estate wholesale company, a retail flipping company, and he also buys and holds. In Andy’s wholesale business, he is in three different markets: Utah, New Mexico, and Indiana and does roughly 25-30 deals a month. On the show, Andy does a deep dive on how he scaled his business from one deal with just himself to 30 deals (per month) with a team of 18 people.

Key Takeaways:

What does Andy’s business look like today?
Andy is in three markets. 80% of his business is wholesale and the remaining 20% is retail flips.
How did Andy go from doing a couple of deals a month to doing 25-30 deals a month?
The first thing Andy did was outsource his books.
What does Andy’s team look like today?
Andy’s acquisitions managers receive around 15% in commission on the gross profit.
At what point should a business owner start growing their business?
TIP: Hire for where you’re going. If you’re only doing one deal, then hire for five deals a month. You can always have certain team members wear more than one hat.
How can you make sure you’ve got the right person on board?
Would you want to work for you?
Why did Andy decide to expand to a different market?
What kind of person does Andy look for when trying to fill an acquisition manager position?
How does Andy find rockstar talent?
70% of somebody is still better than 100% of you, the business owner. There’s only so much of you that can handle the business and you don’t want to get spread too thin.
How does Andy structure his team’s weekly huddle?
What does Andy do when one of his team members has a problematic property and they don’t know how to overcome it?
When should wholesalers hit more than three lists?
What is the advice Andy would give his 25-year-old self?
What is “I Love Real Estate Stories” about?

Shaun McCloskey has been a real estate investor since 2001 and is the co-author of the book Lifeonaire, a philosophy not dedicated to money, but to a long-term vision for your life. On today’s show, Alex and Shaun will not be focusing on real estate investing. Instead, they’ll be talking about why having a vision for yourself will make you a happier person. The truth is, being a millionaire will not solve your problems, living a life with purpose will.

Key Takeaways:

Are you not happy with a certain area of your life? Don’t miss out on this episode.
If you don’t have a vision for your life, then what direction are you going in?
Alex discovered Lifeonaire around 4 years ago and has applied a lot of what he has learned into his life.
What is a Lifeonaire exactly?
For many millionaires, they don’t know how to live a meaningful life beyond their business.
What good is making a ton of money if you don’t have anybody to share it with?
Lifeonaire isn’t about money, it’s about having your business support your lifestyle.
This isn’t to say money is not important because it is. Money does solve problems, but it isn’t the one and final answer to everything.
A lot of people can tell you how to build a profitable business, but very few of them can tell you how you can have a life in that process.
What holds people back from building their life vision?
Facebook can be very, very deceiving.
Goal-setting and setting a vision are two very different things.
How can you have fun and be present with your family now instead of waiting to blow 10 grand at Disney?
Shaun’s father worked himself to death, essentially. He died at 53 years old. That ‘someday’ to spend more time with his family never came for him.
The vision you have for your life is more attainable than you think.
Alex wanted a beach house, but Shaun took him down a path of ‘why’ seven levels deep. Alex ended up finding out the real ‘why’ he wanted a beach house.
Struggling with debt and ‘achieving your dreams’? Then you’ll want to listen to what Shaun has to say on how you can get out of that rat race.
If your vision is clear enough, you’ll do unbelievable things like eliminate debt, reduce expenses, and live a much, much better life.
What’s the process towards finding your vision?
Start with your personal vision first and then build your business plan.
Alex highly recommends you go to Amazon and buy the Lifeonaire book and then if it’s peaked your interest, attend a workshop. It’s worth it.

Well, Brent shares his tips and tricks on how to get a potential seller on the line to discuss the possibility of selling their home.

Gregg has made a lot of investments in his company culture. They provide lunch to their employees every day and even take company time off to volunteer.
What were some of the steps Gregg took in the very beginning, to build his company culture?

On today’s episode, Alex discusses how you can turn your appointments into real deals. Before you start talking about money, get to know the seller’s motivation, and why they want to sell. When you know their motivation, prices can fluctuate dramatically. Also, never go into a meeting unprepared. You want to have your numbers front and center, and be ready to explain to the seller why you’re approaching them with those numbers.

Key Takeaways:

When Alex approaches the seller, he takes price and money off of the table. He first finds out what their motivation is for selling.
Don’t approach meetings and appointments and phone convos with sellers as a negotiation. You want to be standing shoulder to shoulder with them, not making them feel like it’s a you, vs. them.
Preparation breeds confidence. Go into the meeting with the seller as prepared as you can be.
Don’t be creepy, but check them out on social media and see what some of their hobbies and interests are.
Print out your comps and also check out the house in person or on Google street view.
The best way to relieve some of the pressure when having you or your team in the seller’s home is by explaining to them right away what they can expect from your being there.
Alex shares some of the questions he asks the sellers after he’s done with the tour of the property.

On today’s episode, Alex explains why you should leverage your network first when it comes to hiring good talent, and why you need to always be looking for talent, even if you don't need to hire someone right away. Alex also shares some of his hiring tips for those who desperately need to get rockstars on their team.

Key Takeaways:

Some of Alex’s best hires have been through word of mouth.
ABH — Always Be Hiring.
Ask on your social media platforms and let your peeps know you’re looking to hire. Be specific with what you’re looking for.
Alex typically hires two people at the same time for one position. Then sees who performs better.
If you’re going to hire a salesperson who is hungry, make sure you can feed him.
Don’t be cheap with your staff. A true closer pays for himself or herself multiple times over.

Alex received a question from Will, asking him, “If you had to choose only one list to mail, which list would you choose, and why?” Alex offers some feedback as to what to do if you have a limited marketing budget, but the truth of the matter is that there is no secret ninja list out there. You’ve got to put in the work. With that being said, there is such a thing as filters! Use them!

Let’s get this straight. There is no secret ninja list out there. However, there are speciality lists, niche lists, out there.

Alex recently listened to a podcast by Gary Vaynerchuk about the importance of being self-aware. To piggyback on this topic a little bit, sometimes the problems you’re currently facing in your business can be easily solved by a mutually beneficial partnership. In fact, sometimes, all you need to do is open your mind, think outside of the box, and leverage the resources around you. You don’t have to carry the burden alone!

Key Takeaways:

Alex is a fan of Gary V., even though he doesn’t always agree 100% on what he says.
Gary V. is always talking about the importance of being self-aware.
Alex briefly discusses a buddy of his going through a hard time in his business.
When it comes to making deals, open your mind a little bit and partner with people. Don’t have time, but have cash? No cash, but tons of time? There are partners out there for you!
Leverage the resources you have! Optimize your life more effectively by having people who can help you.

Not sure about targeting probate properties? Well, today’s guest, Christina Krause, is here to tell you otherwise. You’re missing huge opportunities by not targeting these properties. Yes, they’re a bit sensitive to touch, but keep in mind that you’re here to provide people a valuable service. Christina has had people in tears because she’s easily helped them sell their family’s property. Christina does a deep dive on what’s working when it comes to a successful probate direct-mail campaign.

Key Takeaways:

Not targeting probates with your direct mail? You’re missing the boat!
Today’s guest, Christina, has been buying and selling property since 1999.
Probates give you an opportunity to capitalize on some big deals.
Stay till the end, Christina has a free gift for you (that she normally charges for).
Who is Christina and how did she get started?
Christina has about 250 rentals on her own.
Let’s back up, what are probate properties exactly?

What do you do when you get some nasty phone calls?

Christina’s team physically handwrites every probate address on the envelope. You don’t typically send mass quantities of these, so it makes it easy and more personal. Also, you don’t want your handwriting to be too perfect.
Christina has a service that helps people market to probate properties. How does it work?
Christina only markets to probates these days. It’s just that good.

Alex received a question about his thoughts on hiring a virtual assistant to do some of the outbound calls/handling client accounts. Outsourcing your sales reps is the last thing you want to do. In any business, lead conversion is just as important, if not more important, than lead generation. You want to know that your sales are in good hands, and you should pay extra to make sure that happens correctly. Stop being so darn cheap! It will bite you.

Key Takeaways:

Stop cutting corners!
When Alex thinks about the bad hires he’s made, it’s because he was trying to cut corners.
What are Alex’s thoughts about hiring virtual assistants?
Paying for cheap sales reps is the last thing you want to do.
Remember, what good is lead generation if you can’t convert it? You’re just flushing money down the toilet.
You want somebody who kills it on the phone.
Guys, you get what you pay for. Take care of your people, especially if they’re great hires.
Keep in mind it’ll also cost you more resources in the long run if you hire the wrong person.
Where are you cutting corners?

Alex is back with another solo round for this week’s episode! Thank you so much for sending in your feedback. Just as a heads up, Alex has a bunch of exciting guest masterclasses lined up, so it’s not just going to be solo rounds from here on out. However, this week’s special because Alex’s team just got back from an important sales training event, and they’re on fire!

Key Takeaways:

Alex’s sales team just got back from John Martinez’s sales training event and they’re on fire.
Around 6 to 8 months ago, Alex said you want to send a minimum of 5 offers a day. Today? Alex is much more strategic with the offers he puts out there.
Remember, find out what the seller motivation is first.
Usually the first reason why they’re selling the house is not the REAL reason. You have to dig a little deeper.
It is critical to understand their pain points and then set them up for the future, aka what it’ll feel like, when their pain point disappears.
Now that Alex and his team are really qualifying their sellers, deals have been going through the roof.
What’s in store for next week’s masterclass?

Alex recently sent his sales team to a sales training event to help them get better at what they do. But before he decided to do that, he was worried about the expenses involved to send his entire sales team to the event. This thinking can stop you dead in your tracks when it comes to your business’s progress. It’s important to think about the value of something, and not just the bottom line costs. One idea, and implementing that idea quickly, can change your business for the better.

Key Takeaways:

Most podcasts last only 5-6 episodes, so Alex is super happy that we’re already 117 shows in!
Whenever you’re listening to this podcast, and at whatever time, don’t forget to get to work after it’s done!
By the way, thank you for giving Alex feedback! Keep doing it.
Do you have some negative thoughts or feelings that come up? You need to stop and analyze why.
Invest in yourself and in your team. Alex’s team is right now at a sales training.
Before Alex sent his team on this training, he was worried that the costs of flying them all out to the event would be too expensive.
It’s important to think about the value, not the cost.
Remember guys, get to work! That’s the most important step!

Dale Hensel has a very extensive career despite being so young. He has founded, bought, and sold 15 companies, and even raised over $100 million in capital. He’s always on the lookout for new opportunities, but he also knows how to balance the shiny object syndrome all of us entrepreneurs are challenged with. So, how does he do it? Listen in to today’s show to find out!

Key Takeaways:

Who is Dale and how did he get started in real estate?
How has Dale accomplished so much? What keeps him so motivated?
It takes roughly one year to get established, two to three years to get profitable, and five years to become really successful.
With this in mind, Dale understands he has to commit at least three to five years when starting a new business. This means you have to commit to the grind and the boring parts, too.
If you consistently do the right actions, you will inevitably become wealthy. Dale explains a bit more.
What kind of traits do entrepreneurs need to have in order to be successful?
What’s Dale’s hiring process?
Get comfortable with delegating! If they only do it 70% as well as you, so what? Hire another person and make it 140% better than you.
Remember, when you hire somebody, you’re buying more of your freedom back.
What happens if you ‘can’t afford’ a new hire?
How did Dale buy a class A office building for 20 cents on the dollar?
Dale is constantly networking, going out to lunch with bankers, etc. He is always planting seeds.
How does Dale network so effectively?
The key to Dale’s success is that he trusts the grind and he trusts the process.
Alex does a quick recap of what Dale and he talked about today.
Dale is always curious, too! Be honest and be direct and you’ll find people are very friendly and will help you out.
How does Dale find the balance between working on his business/finding new businesses and not get shiny object syndrome?

Alex discusses how he had left so much money on the table in the very beginning of his business because he did not hire the right people from the get-go. If you’re guy is going to be on the front lines and dealing directly with customers, then you want to thoroughly make sure he’s got some sales experience and has the right personality for the job.

Key Takeaways:

Alex hired a lead manager, but he didn’t really have any sales experience on the phone.
Alex used to cringe when he heard his lead manager on a call.
So, when Alex switched his business model around, he let him go and put his acquisition manager on the phone instead. Alex immediately saw an increase in results.
To be fair, Alex doesn’t advise you to be the one to personally close the deal on the phone.
Be sure to check out the John Martinez interview on how to properly call the seller.
It’s best to get face-to-face time with these sellers. Alex doesn’t recommend closing them on the phone. That doesn’t mean you should never do it, though.

On this week’s episode, Alex shares some of the behind the scenes to his business. The month of May has generated record high profits and Alex discusses why this month has been so high for him and his team. It all started back in March when he set the expectation of how much money he wanted his business to make.

Key Takeaways:

Thank you for sending in your emails! Someone messaged Alex recently thanking him for helping him close his first deal.
May has been one of the best months ever for Alex’s business.
Remember, we all fall down, but it’s about getting back up again. Make it count.
In the month of January, Alex did not close a deal.
In March, Alex challenged his team and set a financial expectation for the team to strive for.
Total revenue for the month of May? $162,099.85. This was all from 4 deals. Alex spent around $1,800 in marketing.
You guys can replicate these numbers!
Two of the deals came from direct mail. The 3rd deal came from a cold call. The 4th deal came from a joint venture deal.
Takeaway #1: You need to have a good mindset with money. You get what you expect.
Takeaway #2: Set a goal.
Takeaway #3: Get your hands on a specialty list.
Takeaway #4: Follow up.

Rick Ginn focuses on acquiring probate properties. Every probate property has a story to tell, and to be good in this industry, you have to be a mix between a therapist, a problem solver, and a good listener. The market is structured, and sending out direct mail no longer gives you that personal touch. Rick shares tips on how you can stand out in your market and get those deals going for you.

Key Takeaways:

What does Rick’s business look like today?
Alex reduced his team down from 7 to 4 and is doing more volume and profits.
Want longevity in this business? Exercise some patience.
Customers aren’t stupid. They have a lot of choices in the marketplace.
Rick hires slow and fires fast. Rick spent 6 months training his acquisitions guy before he did any deals on his own.
What kind of probate real estate is Rick focused on?
If the numbers work, then don’t hesitate to take it.
Rick wouldn’t touch direct mail in today’s market. It’s too saturated.
What’s Rick’s marketing strategy? How does he get deals?
Investors have gotten lazy. They don’t want to go out there and knock on doors.
Remember, it takes time to get your systems set up. No one is an overnight success.
If you’re the first to show up during a bidding, then you also want to make sure you’re leaving last.
In today’s market, go in and solve problems that other people won’t. It makes you stand out. Real estate agents will only lift their finger to an extent.
Rick talks about what he thinks about 3rd party lists. Hint: He doesn’t like them.
Worried that you won’t be able to answer a seller’s question on the phone? Tell them you’ll get back to them with an answer! You don’t need to lie.
Probate properties always have a story to tell.
All you need is a cell phone, a pen and a pad, and the ability to go to your local courthouse. It’s really not that complicated!
Try this industry out for 12 months. Be patient and keep working at it. When Rick was first starting out, he didn’t get a deal for the first couple of months.
The great thing about probates is that it consistently remains the same. You don’t have to constantly reinvent the wheel.

On this week’s episode, Alex discusses how you can get bigger assignment fees on your deals. In order to get the right deals, you do have to set the expectation that you want to make more money. When you have the right mindset, and develop your lead conversion skills, you will get those higher-paying deals!

Key Takeaways:

For the new beginners out there, Alex explains what wholesaling is.
A property doesn’t have to be in distress for you to make a good deal on it.
So, how do you get bigger assignment fees on your deals?
You have to set the expectation that you are going to make more.
Don’t settle for the average profit. The ceiling can always go higher.
Alex used to make about 13k a deal. Now he makes 20k a deal.
Don’t get complacent. If you’re in a hot market, reach for the sky.
Aside from the mindset aspect of it all, what steps can you take to make more?
Continue to get better at lead conversion and sales.
Are you a motivated seller?
Really get to know and understand your cash buyers.

Alex invites Obi Dorsey onto the show to discuss how Meetup.com is working out for him. Obi is the Founder and Owner of Freedom REI, and has been in business for the last 3.5 years. Obi currently does about 12-16 deals a month, and has made some excellent connections through the meetup group he started just this year alone. Find out more on how Obi structures and markets the meetup, on this week’s show!

Key Takeaways:

Who is Obi and how did he get started in real estate?
The more you give, the more you get.
Obi started his first meetup group on the website Meetup.com in January.
Obi has been hosting a meetup once every month since then. His May meetup had 110 people attending.
When Obi started the group, he just wanted to network and meet some people. However, he is deathly afraid of public speaking and it is still something he’s trying to get over.
Obi was scared to start the group, which is good, because he knew he was stepping out of his comfort zone and going in the right direction.
What results has Obi seen after hosting these 5 meetup groups so far?
How do you start your own meetups?
Start where you are. You don’t need a big fancy venue to start these events.
How did Obi market the meetup? Word of mouth? Email?
Obi makes a conscious effort to not make the meetup about him. It’s about meeting cool people who are doing cool things.
How does Obi structure the meetups? Is there an agenda?
How has Obi built a business where he’s able to consistently do 12-16 deals a month?
You’re literally one deal away from changing your life.

Alex received a question from Shane, who is currently running a direct mail probate campaign. How often should he follow up? Every direct mail campaign is different and certain markets require more follow-up than others. For this week’s show, Alex discusses what his sweet spot is when it comes to direct mail follow-ups and why sending just one campaign out is a waste of money!

Key Takeaways:

Shane writes in and asks how often he should send follow-ups on his direct mail campaign.
Response rates are down throughout the country.
Despite this, Alex is still getting a lot of success out of his direct mail campaign. It’s in the middle of May, and he’s already got 6-figures in profits.
A sweet spot for Alex when it comes to follow-up, is around 6 week intervals.
Don’t wait three months to send a follow-up!
Sending just one campaign is a waste of money. You have to be consistent with it.
Keep sending your questions to Alex!

Cris Chico is ready to kick off this episode and talk about why potential team members should take the Kolbe A Index Test before you hire them.

Cris is a close friend of Alex, return guest, and was actually the first person to be interviewed for Alex’s show! Cris doesn’t hire people unless they take the Kolbe Test because he needs to know both their strengths and weakness, and how well they’ll get along with the rest of the team.

Key Takeaways:

Cris was the first guest to kick off the podcast, and now he’s back again 100+ episodes later!
What is the Kolbe A Index Test about?
Alex has made hiring mistakes and hired the wrong types of people for the job. Kolbe makes it easy to see straight away if a position fits naturally for the person being hired for the job.
So much money is spent on training, and so having someone leave 5-6 months later really is a blow to your resources.
Cris shares what his score is on Kolbe, and gives you an idea of what to expect from the test.
None of the test results you get are bad. These results help give you a clear understanding of how you work.
Cris shares why he’s a horrible salesperson, and what kind of results you should look for when hiring an acquisitions manager.
When you understand how your team works on a fundamental level, you will also become a better and more relaxed boss.
What’s the first step? Take the Kolbe test yourself.
Cris discusses Kolbe scores for an admin, transaction coordinator, VA, and sales person, and helps give you a general idea of what you should look for in a team.
Don’t be so hard on yourself. This test is not about fixing your weaknesses, it’s about understanding your MO.
You can save yourself so much time and headaches just by this simple test.
Cris will be launching a YouTube channel. Stay tuned for more info!

Key Takeaways:

Remember, you’re in the people business. This means you need to invest in people!
When you really care about people, more money comes to you.
Where are you investing your time?
Alex recently started sending gifts to the seller whenever he and his team close on a deal.

Alex does a quick 10-minute episode to answer some questions about the importance of the follow up. He’s received a couple of messages about this on Facebook recently, and wants to bring home the message of why you can’t leave leads, even if they’re years old, alone and in the cold.

Key Takeaways:

Reach out to other real estate investors, and not just the ones in your local market!
If you have some people you already know, like, and trust, reach out to them and strike a JV partnership with them.
You’ve gotta have a follow-up system in place. If you don’t, you’re leaving so much on the table.
The follow-up system is just as important, or even more important, than the marketing.
You can 2x to 5x your business, just by the follow up alone.

This is a tough question to answer, because everybody has a different schedule, and what works for Alex may not work for you. The best way to find the schedule that works for you is to experiment!

Alex discusses why it’s so easy to slip out of the ‘hustle’ mode when things are going well in the business. No one is immune to this! Alex has even done this himself. Business was going great, but because the real estate market has its ups and downs, Alex quickly saw that when he got complacent in his work, it began to also hurt the business.

Key Takeaways:

Alex and his wife are getting ready to have their second child!
When you’ve hit your stride in this market, it can be very easy to slack off, or even get complacent.
Alex has been guilty in the past of doing this!
The real estate industry is not immune to having some ups and downs.
When things are going well for you, don’t slack off. You need to keep pressing forward!
A couple of months ago, Alex had two sellers back out for almost no reason at all.
Was Alex’s mindset just in a bad place?

Rob Swanson is a second-time return guest on the Flip Empire show. This week, Rob discusses how you can structure your deals in such a way, where you’re making not just short term cash flow, but mid- and long-term cash flow. Sometimes it does take a little of out-of-the-box thinking, but your future you will thank you for it!

Key Takeaways:

Sometimes real estate investors get a little bit blinded towards achieving financial freedom.
Did you know Rob loves to bake pies? Creative deal structuring is like baking a pie.
The wholesaler who gets good creative deal structures will not only build short term cash, but also mid- and long-term cash flow.
How do you build residual income while still wholesaling?
Rob shares a quick example of how he was able to structure a deal that builds long-term cash flow.
What is seller financing?
Alex and Rob do some quick math on how much you’ll need to pay a seller.
When Rob meets with a seller, he will often have two or three different options for them to choose from.
Basically, Rob makes the seller into a bank. Instead of paying Wells Fargo once a month, the seller gets paid.
Alex and Rob walk through another scenario. What happens when the seller wants more than initially offered?
What kind of homeowners are more open to doing deals like this?
You’re leaving so much money on the table, long term, if you’re not thinking about structuring your deals in this way.
Not sure if you quite understood how to setup these deals just yet? Don’t worry, you can listen this show again, and sign up to Rob’s Freedom Blueprint waiting list.

Alex discusses the importance of scaling down; yes, DOWN, and not up. Over the last few months, Alex reduced his team from 8 to 5. By simplifying the process, and getting more focused, Alex has seen his sales increase! People often talk about the importance of scaling up (including Alex), but there’s a lot of power to taking a step back and scaling down, too.

Key Takeaways:

Scaling your business is important, especially if you want to gain more time and financial freedom.
When you can make your business into something that’s greater than you, that’s where the magics happens.
Alex admits he made a rookie mistake right after the holidays in November.
Because Alex took his foot off the gas on the marketing side of things, the year had a slow start.
So, you know about scaling up, but sometimes you also need to scale down. Alex explains further.
More isn’t always better.

Alex answers a listener question who asked how to get the seller’s asking price out of them. So many times, sellers are skeptical to give out their numbers and it can create a bit of an uphill battle for yourself. Alex offers a couple of tricks on how you can phrase the question differently and build rapport.

Key Takeaways:

In the past, Alex used to be very direct with trying to figure out how much a seller wanted for their property. Sellers never wanted to give that info out!
So, instead, Alex now asks the opposite question. What does Alex mean by ‘asking the opposite question’?
By changing how you say it, sellers become much more open to giving you the answer you’re looking for.
Alex has found since that between 8-9 out of ten times, the seller will give you their asking price.
If the seller isn’t sure about their price, you’re still able to build rapport with them.
So many people don’t want to give personal information about themselves, but are more than open to giving info about their neighbors.
If the person is boasting about how great their property is, ask them why they’re selling it. This flips the tables.
When you figure out what their pain point is, you can speak to them on that point.

Frank never had a doubt in his mind that this was what he wanted to do for a living.
Frank had to overcome a lot of adversities in his life, in order to make his real estate business work.

Alex discusses on this episode the new changes he's implementing in his business when it comes to an unmotivated lead, and what he's doing to hopefully have it convert down the line.

Key Takeaways:

Be sure to listen to last week's show on the importance of online leads!

Chris Bruce is a real estate investor, and the podcast host of Escape The REI Newbie Zone, a show all about how newbies can break through and enter the real estate investing industry. On this week’s episode, Chris discusses ways you can get leads for free, especially when you have a low-to-no marketing budget, whatsoever.

Key Takeaways:

What advice does Chris have for people who are just starting out, and do not have a big marketing budget on hand?
Put out ads looking for bird dogs.
If you put an ad on looking for bird dogs, make sure you have training in place to teach them what they should be looking for.
Put a video of the kinds of properties you are looking for, in the ad.
If you already have people scouting for you, you can also get them to put a post-it sign, or some sort of note, into the mailbox of some of these homeowners.
Chris likes to run a skip trace on the property and then contact any family members that pop up. They want to get a warm introduction from their family member first.
Alex noticed that most of the deals he was closing were with homeowners above the age of 50.
Instead of throwing away your returned mail, run a skip trace on them.
What’s Chris’s process when he runs a skip trace?
Afraid of cold calling? Don’t be! You’re trying to help these people out. Don’t look at it as a cold call — look at it as a conversation.
If you’re doing a direct-mail campaign, be sure you have enough money to do four touches. If you can’t re-mail people every 60-90 days, then don’t commit to the campaign.
Small budget? Target a niched list.
What advice does Chris have for his 22-year-old self?
It’s a cool thing to be an entrepreneur these days, but you need to have thick skin, in order to make it.

Someone asked Alex whether keeping their 24-hour recorded voice system was still a smart thing to do. After reading this question, Alex immediately got onto Facebook Live to answer it. Alex has seen tremendous results from switching out his recorded voice system to having a real person take the calls live. Don’t leave money on the table like he did!

Key Takeaways:

Q: Should we still be using a 24-hour recorded voice system, like Freedom Voice, to have homeowners leave messages to?
Alex switched up his system, and started taking calls live.
You can 3x-4x your results, just by implementing this one thing.
If you’re working solo, then this is a position you might want to hire out.
FYI, you should not go for the sale on the phone. You do want to meet with the homeowner/buyer/seller in person.
When you’re on the phone with a prospect, find out what their motivations are, and whether this person is the right fit for you.
Call the people who have hung up back!
Following up in this way also gives you an excellent opportunity to work with other wholesalers in the area.

Alex talks about the same client he spoke about on last week’s Q&A show, the one who decided to pay for a cheaper VA. Because of this discussion, Alex’s client is now overwhelmed with other additional tasks and doesn’t want to spend money in critical areas, like marketing, until she can close a deal. Alex explains why this is a mistake, especially in real estate!

Key Takeaways:

Alex continues his discussion from last week’s Q&A episode and talks about one of his clients who was struggling with a bad VA hire.
Alex’s client was overwhelmed, so she had to stop marketing in order to keep up with the leads. Mistake!
Alex told her to focus on 10 specific zip codes, but it was a catch 22, because she wanted to get a lead in before spending more money.
We’re all guilty of this behavior, but this is why you need to change your mindset.
Learn from Alex’s mistakes.
Your business dies if your marketing gets stopped.
The problem here is you don’t know whether the leads you currently have will work out for you. This is why you need more coming in, just in case!
Sometimes Alex doesn’t close a deal until 3-4 months later.
The good news is, Alex’s client listened to him and now she’s getting it done! Crisis averted!
The x amount of money you’re spending on your marketing budget, comes back to you 10x, 20x, and sometimes 50x.
Ran out of capital to run your marketing campaign? Then it’s time to knock on doors and hustle. There’s always something you can do to drive leads!!!
Do you want to hear more client case study calls? Let Alex know!

Alex is currently experiencing some challenges in his business, and realizes that there are certain processes he can greatly improve upon. For example, certain team members are currently receiving sales training so that they can become even better sales reps in the future.

On this same topic, Alex discusses a client of his who recently fired an expensive, but valuable VA. His client is seemingly having to re-train the cheaper VA and it’s turning out to be wasting her time. Ouch! Don’t think of the expense when it comes to good talent, think of the value they bring to the table.

Key Takeaways:

Right now Alex has some challenges in his business, and he’s excited by them!
Alex has been working with one particular client for the last three weeks, and she’s already starting to see results!
Alex is always looking for talent.
Right now, Alex is training certain team members to get better at sales. He knows he’s not the best out there when it comes to this skill.
So many times, we only look at the expense, but we need to look at the value.
Remember, so few people consider how much time they have to spend re-training someone, over and over again, in order to get the job done right.
A valuable team member adds to your bottom line.
Are you setting your team up for success?
When you feel like you have to micromanage your new hire, they are probably not a right fit for you.
Be slow to hire and quick to fire.
Alex is in the process of creating a small group coaching session. Contact him if you’re interested!

Alex likes to ramp up his marketing campaigns during the holidays, because he knows that’s when most businesses slow down. Yes, people do go on vacation during this time of year, but you never know who might be at home, willing to give you a call. Also, Alex answers Pedro’s question on this week’s show, about how to offer a flat fee to your transaction coordinator and where the best place is to find good talent.

Key Takeaways:

Business tends to slow down this time of year, but not for the reasons you may think.
Before the new year comes, set your goals! Figure what you want your lifestyle to be like, and then reverse engineer that.
What’s inside the mind of a millionaire?
Pedro asks, “How do you find a transaction coordinator willing to work for a flat fee?”
The best team members come from your network.
Have an abundance mindset.
Alex doesn’t recommend you hire someone to wear more than one hat. It can get complicated.

Alex walks you through the steps he and his team take when they’ve gotten a buyer under contract, and how his transaction coordinator handles and closes the deal. If you haven’t been following along, this episode is the final show in its four-part series, where Alex walks the audience through how his staff processes and closes a qualified lead.

Key Takeaways:

Alex’s transaction coordinator has a checklist in the CRM system.
Alex will get a title and lien search ordered, only after he’s gotten a contract signed by the buyer.
Normally people get a title and lien search after the seller has signed the contract, but Alex explains why he waits for the buyer first.
Make sure you’re in constant communication with the seller.
If Alex knows a property has an issue, he will communicate that with the buyer and add that into the contract.
When you’re first starting out, and wearing all the company’s hats, heads up — being a transaction coordinator is a full-time job.
As the owner of your company, you should be able to take a look at what’s in the CRM, and know exactly what’s going on, and who is handling it.
Alex discusses a time he worked with a seller who was a big ball of nerves. If he didn't have his transaction coordinator there to help walk the seller through the process, the deal would have never gone through.
When you close the deal, try to get a video testimonial of the seller.

Alex has received a few questions on how his acquisitions manager handles a lead. During this quick Q&A show, Alex discusses the steps his acquisitions manager takes to build rapport with the client and get that deal closed and transferred to the sales manager.

Key Takeaways:

Sorry if the audio quality isn’t good!
Once the lead manager sets up an appointment, how does the acquisitions manager handle the lead?
You have to get out of your comfort zone.
Alex just got back from a real estate workshop.
The new year is coming up, Use this time to see what conferences you want to attend next year.
Okay, once you’ve gotten yourself outside of your comfort zone, what should you do when a quality lead comes through your door?
Close deals on the phone vs. in person? Let’s test this.
Alex tries to get the lead manager and acquisitions manager talking on the phone before the acquisitions manager meets with the client.
When you go into an appointment, try your best to not talk about the deal during the first 10–15 minutes. Focus on building rapport instead.
Remember, people do business with people they know, like, and trust.
Walk your client through the process. Don’t assume they know how this works.

Alex discusses how he and his team process hot leads. When the lead manager has identified that the seller is motivated, what are some of the next steps? Alex reminds the audience that it’s about building rapport with the owner, at the end of the day. So, finding out why the owner is selling the home is incredibly important, especially if you want to take a lead and make it into a sale.

Key Takeaways:

What do Alex and his team do when a qualified lead comes in?
Follow up religiously with new leads. You’ve spent time and money on them!
Alex has two lead managers that are both based out of Colombia.
Always find out why the seller is selling their home.
Avoid the surface-level answer. People’s ‘whys’ are usually much deeper than that.

Jack Bosch is back with another masterclass. Jack joined us for the first time on episode 40, and spoke about how to achieve ‘forever cash.’ Be sure to check his interview out! This week, Jack discusses how investors can capitalize on tax delinquent properties within a reasonable amount of time. If you’re able to time it right, tax delinquent properties can give you the largest margins out of any real estate niche.

Key Takeaways:

Jack does a quick overview on investing in tax delinquent properties.
In many states, you can end up owning a $100,000 home by only spending $8,000, over the course of a few years. How? Through tax liens.
As investors, how can we take advantage of these tax delinquent properties?
You have to be wise about the kind of properties you pick. Chances are the million dollar homes will get paid off. The owner just forgot to pay it.
Look for homes on the outskirts of the city. It is likely the boarded up house will not have their taxes paid.
Remember, this strategy is a multi-year game play. What about the investors who want to make money now?
The margins are huge in tax delinquent properties compared to other real estate niches.
How can investors get a list of tax delinquent properties in their county?
You have to know how many years the homeowner has owed property taxes for, before you get into the deal.
What do investors need to look out for when trying to get their hands on the county’s tax delinquent list?
Jack has two versions of direct mail letters he sends to owners who owe property taxes.
Out of the 5 phone calls you receive, you are able to do one to two deals.

As the year begins to wind down, Alex uses this time to reflect and assess his business. He takes a macro view of his business, and analyzes some of the things that he’s happy, and unhappy, about.

Alex’s open rates for emails have been between 15-18%. Not bad, but not amazing either.

Gabriel Garcia is the Vice President at FL Home Cash Buyers, LLC. Gabriel started out as an aspiring hip hop artist, but with no money in his pocket, he decided he needed a change of lifestyle. Through the help of several books including Rich Dad Poor Dad, by Robert Kiyosaki, Gabriel found his financial freedom through real estate. Find out more about Gabriel’s success, on this week’s episode.

Key Takeaways:

Gabriel got started three years ago and is now currently doing about five to six deals a month
How did Gabriel get started in this business?
With no money in his pocket, Gabriel decided to read books about how to make money.
Gabriel went to a seminar that taught him how to flip houses. He soon asked his dad for a $40,000 loan. His father pretty much hung up the phone on him.
When you’re first starting out, it’s a big learning curve, and it can get hectic trying to cramp all the info into your head.
Gabriel hired a local mentor as soon as he could, to help teach him the works.
What is Gabriel’s approach to creating effective systems?
Gabriel realized that people -- not systems-- are foundational to his business. If you have bad people, you have a bad business.
If you really sit down and think about the costs of a bad hire, you’re looking at around $60,000-120,000.
What does Gabriel’s hiring process look like?
After you’ve hired someone, what are some of the steps to building a fantastic team?
How can real estate investors ‘10x’ their business? What’s the one thing they need to do?
10-20%, if not more, of your profits should go back into marketing.
You can’t build a business without marketing!

Alex answers a question from one of his local wholesaler friends, who is currently looking for a transaction coordinator. How do you find good talent? Well, it’s not by sending out an ad and then sifting through each and every resume. You always want to get your prospects to jump through hoops before you hire them! Find out some of the best hiring tips on this week’s Q&A session.

Key Takeaways:

What’s the best way to hire a transaction coordinator?
Don’t waste your time reviewing resumes. Have people jump through some hoops first.
Alex’s local wholesaler friend found two qualified applicants for the transaction coordinator position. Who should he hire?
Every employee or team member should be bringing in more than what you pay them.
Alex always has all his applicants take a Kolbe test before they get hired.
If you’re presented with two or three qualified applicants by the end of the screening process, then hire each qualified applicant for that position and give them a trial run. You have nothing to lose!
The cream is going to rise to the top!

Alex discusses why chasing rainbows or the ‘next big thing’ is the worst thing you can do for yourself. Focus on one niche and pursue that niche with all your heart. There's only so much that books and online courses can teach you, but at the end of the day, you need to be in the trenches to really learn this industry and get things working for you. You need to get hands-on experience to really understand what those books are trying to say.

Key Takeaways:

Alex has put together a free online course for his audience. Go to his website for more info.
Alex talks about someone he knows who is constantly chasing the next big thing.
You have to focus!
Stop bouncing around. The knowledge is going to come from the experience.
So, what should you be focusing on? What's the quickest way to get into real estate?
There's got to be a balance between what you're learning and what you're doing.
The best investment you can make is in yourself.
Does this sound like you? Don't beat yourself up about it. Make a change today.
Again, focus on one thing. Educate yourself while you're taking action.

This is part-two of a question Audrey asked last week. Be sure to go to episode 23 to catch up on how to hire a great acquisitions manager, and to find out when it's the right time to hire certain people depending on the stage of your business. Today, Alex furthers the conversation by going into detail on how he finds his talent and pre-screens them. It can become costly hiring the wrong person for your company, which is why you want to take precautions to make sure the person you hire is the right fit for the job at hand.

Key Takeaways:

• Once you begin to fill your business with rockstar people, you'll begin to get back your time and have more freedom.

• Alex loves hiring talent on Upwork.

• You want to have your applicants jump through some hoops to weed yourself out of the lazy ones who didn't read the job description.

• If you find a great person who you're already doing business with, reach out with that person and build a connection with them.

• Avoid playing email tag when trying to setup a time to speak to someone on Skype. Get a scheduling system.

• What kind of things can you do to pre-screen people?

• You want your job applicant to answer around 5-7 questions on the interview form.

Alex would like to retouch on a topic he discussed a couple of weeks back. People have since reached out to Alex, asking him how they can improve their deal flow. But one of the things Alex has noticed the most, is that there is a lack of consistency in how many offers they're sending out. Alex believes people tend to get caught up in the technical aspects of their business and do not follow up with tasks that really matter – like sending out offers.

Key Takeaways:

• Alex and his wife just started doing an 'awesome jar' where they put one thing that happened that day that was awesome into the jar.

• Alex encourages you to do the same thing. There's something powerful about being able to reflect on the positive things that happened in your life.

• Challenge yourself for five minutes at the beginning of the day to write down everything you're grateful for.

• Alex wants to re-elaborate on a topic he spoke about a couple of weeks back, on consistency with your marketing.

• How many offers are you sending? How many offers are in the hands of your sellers?

• Make a goal to send out at least five offers a day.

• Get a virtual assistant to help you.

• Too busy to send five? Then start with one.

• Don't get bogged down with the technical details.

• It all boils down to consistency. Sending 1 offer a day is better than sending 50 in one day, and then doing nothing.

Alex wants to stress the importance of creating systems in your business. When you have good systems in place, anybody can take a look at your business and fit right in. Alex talks on how you can put effective systems in your business and why you should always document the process and make sure it is still up-to-date three months later. Systems help make sure you're on the same page with your team and it also gives you a way to take yourself out of the picture.

Key Takeaways:

• Thank you for sending in your questions!

• Everybody understands the importance of having systems in their business, but what does it actually look like?

• You want to have a strong system in place so you can replace yourself.

• If you're still interested in this topic after the show, Alex can do a master class on it as well.

• First of all, what is step one? Outline the various categories and subcategories of your business.

• It's important to document what you plan to do and make it easy to read. Alex does this in a video format and then has his VA organize it in a word doc.

• Don't just rely on video, because things change and things need to be updated.

• You want the document incredibly, incredibly easy. Can't stress this enough. Include bullet points and screenshots, so that anybody can quickly understand the tasks at hand.

• Every three months you want to check back on all the SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) you've created.

• Focus on creating one SOP a week. Don't overwhelm yourself.

• You always want to be thinking, “How can I remove myself from this process?”

Alex discusses why you should always give your seller a different set of options and offers, when looking to purchase their home. He normally gives his sellers three options - a low cash offer, a owner fiance or lease offer, or a retail listing. By setting the seller up with these different options, they're more likely to agree to doing the deal with you and use you as their provider. However, if they're still unwilling to do a creative finance deal with you, do not throw that lead away! Alex explains how you can continue to put that lead to good use.

Key Takeaways:

• Remember to check out our master interview with Erik Stark part one and part two.

• You want to give the sellers you speak with on the phone different options.

• Most of the leads you get, the seller will lack motivation and any real interest in you.

• Despite this, do not throw those leads away! Monetize them.

• Alex likes to give his sellers three options. He recommends to take control of the situation.

• You don't want to only send a cash offer.

• How does Alex monetize retail leads?

• If you're not a licensed agent, check with your attorney on the best legal way to do this.

• Do not throw the lead away if the home owner does not want to structure an owner finance deal with you.

• Alex will sometimes outsource that tough lead or keep in touch with the homeowner at least once a month.

Erik and his business partner, Steve Mills, have sold over 400+ properties in the last 11 years, so Erik definitely has a lot of qualified experience and advice up his sleeves.

Key Takeaways:

• Be sure to listen to part one of this interview with Erik first!

• Erik does a quick recap of what he talked about in part one.

Today's Q&A session briefly dives into how to successfully build a good relationship with the seller. Alex believes going straight in to talk about the property is a huge no-no and he would rather ease back and get to know the seller better, their purpose, and why they're selling the property themselves. When you take that extra step to understand the seller's needs and who they are as a person, it really does go a long way.

Key Takeaways:

• How do you build rapport with the seller?

• It's a huge mistake talking about the property right away.

• Alex is always on top of his guys on how they build rapport with the sellers.

• Connect with the seller, figure what makes them tick, what personality type they are, etc.

• People will do business with other people they know, like, and trust.

• When calls come in, people will be on-guard. They don't know how this industry works and sometimes they don't even know why you're contacting them.

• Alex talks about his 'sneaky Facebook' trick.

• Don't fake it!

Many new real estate investors are often looking for that one 'secret tip' to succeed, but Cris mentions that it is often a combination of things that takes your career to the next level.
