Haley Gant

In today’s episode of Passion for Real Estate Investments, IRA Specialist at Quest Trust Company, Haley Gant, talks about self-directed IRAs.  Haley grew up around real estate. Her parents became involved in real estate when she was in kindergarten and have since flipped over 1700 houses and become hard money lenders. In high school, they taught her about self-directed IRAs. After graduating from college, Haley joined Quest. Haley educates investors on how to utilize and diversify their 401k or IRAs by investing in real estate, notes, or other privately-held assets.  How do you start when you have a low maximum contribution? Haley tells us about the common misconceptions that stop people from opening an IRA, the differences between a Roth IRA and a Traditional IRA, and she gives us two reasons why we should have an IRA account.  If you want to know more about IRAs, or you’re looking for an IRA specialist, this episode is for you. Highlights from the interview   “Get that idea out of your head that you don’t have enough to invest.” “Everyone out there should have a Roth IRA. Never underestimate the power of compounding interest. Get it started today.” “The only thing that is limited is your contributions. Your contributions are what you take from your personal funds and put into the IRA. Profit from investments – there is no cap on that.” “Not everyone can have a Roth IRA. If you are a high-income earner, you can’t make a direct contribution to a Roth IRA.” “There are 7 different types of accounts that can be self-directed. Look at the whole picture.”   About Haley Gant  Haley Gant is one of our top IRA Specialists at Quest Trust Company and has been with the company since June of 2016.

Kim Butler

In today’s episode of Passion for Real Estate Investments, Founder of Partners For Prosperity, LLC, Kim Butler, talks about alternative investments. From growing up on a dairy farm, to becoming an industry leader in atypical financial planning, Kim’s passion has driven her to innovate and place herself at the top of the game.  Kim grew up on a dairy farm, where she learned her discipline, work ethic, and saving habits. She got herself through college by selling milk from the cow her father bought her in the 4th grade. After graduating college, Kim started her career in banking. In 1999, she left the firm she worked at and started Partners for Prosperity, which is dedicated to the Prosperity Economics Principles. She is also the co-founder of the Prosperity Economics Movement, and has been an Investopedia Top 100 Advisor since 2017.  She is the host of The Prosperity Podcast with support from Spencer Shaw, and has appeared on popular shows such as Let’s Get Down to Business Podcast with Kiyosaki, and the Real Estate Guys radio show. Kim and her husband, Todd Langford, host an annual summit for industry professionals. She has authored eight books, including Amazon Bestsellers Live Your Life Insurance, and Busting the Life Insurance Lies, and the popular Busting the Retirement Lies.  How do you create ‘wealth without wall street’? Kim tells us about whole-life insurance, we learn about senior life settlements, the meaning of C.L.U.E., investing in precious metals, and we hear her views on diversifying investments.  If you want to learn about life insurance, diversifying your investments, and how to create wealth without Wall Street, this episode is for you. Highlights from the interview   “It’s critical that people have emergency funds.” L.U.E: Control. Liquidity. Use. Equity. “Life insurance is very age-based. If you’re 20 or 30 years old, you can absolutely start with $100/$500/$1000 a month. You don’t have to have a lump to get started.” “The product is called whole-life insurance because you’re going to use it your whole life. Nothing that you use that long is going to happen overnight.” You’re not borrowing from your cash value; you’re borrowing against your cash value. You’re borrowing from the life insurance company. Bridge loans and life settlements don’t cause self-directed IRAs to have tricky tax issues. “If you have the wealth to speculate, go for it.” “Let’s define investments as something that, ideally, is not going to lose principal, and can earn us a decent rate of return after taxes and inflation.” “Cash, income, and growth. Those are the only three things that I look at.” “I’m not a fan of typical diversification. However, I’m also not a fan of somebody going all in on one thing.” “Go slow. Start small.”   About Kim Butler  Founder of Partners for Prosperity, LLC, Kim Butler has shunned common financial products such as stocks, bonds, savings accounts and CDs in favor of alternative investments, private lending, and creative life insurance strategies outside of the typical financial planning “box.” It’s all part of the Prosperity Economics Movement, a non-profit organization co-founded by Butler along with her husband, Todd Langford (a financial software developer who is always checking the math) which is spreading its “Wealth without Wall Street” mission to clients and other advisors alike.

Then late 19 I decided to stop cold turkey and go to commercial real estate. I pretty much let all my staff go and started from scratch. I started to liquidate all my SF. Was inducted in the Rich Dad Poor Dad Hall of Fame in 2018 I believe in mentors/coaching. I don’t do that but know most of the big players in the business and can give you a good recommendation.

Max Keller

In today’s episode of Passion for Real Estate Investments, President of Savior Publishing House, LLC, Max Keller, talks about raising private capital. From being a full-time math teacher to founding and building several highly successful businesses, Max has attained many levels of success.  Prior to joining the real estate industry, Max worked as a high school Math Teacher. In 2016, Max founded Savior Home Buyers to assist seniors with their unique set of challenges in housing. As part of SHB, he created an educational program that aimed to empower seniors, as well as providing useful information to their families. In 2018, Max founded Savior Publishing House, LLC. Savior is a national publisher partnering with real estate experts to attract clients to their businesses through education. In 2019, Max was named Industry Innovator of the Year. Max holds a BBA in Finance from the University of Texas at Austin, and an MA in Teaching from Louisiana College.  What are the myths surrounding raising private money? Max tells us about his book for motivated sellers, he emphasizes the importance of education, and he tells us about the red flags to look out for when dealing with investors. Why did Max choose private money over institutional money? What are the risks involved with raising private capital? If you’re looking to get into raising private money, or you’re searching for the resources to help you advance in your business, this episode is for you.   Highlights from the interview   “Active income is great, but that ownership is really the balance sheet.” Max and his partner have raised over $50Million, and have a 100% track record of paying people back. “Leading with value is never going to go out of style. Building relationships takes time and there’s really no substitute.” “During the downturns, the people who make the money are the ones who have cash or access to cash.” “Private money is a superpower.” “A great life is about lots of great choices and lots of great options. Money is not the root of all evil, in my opinion. I think not having money can be the root of all evil because when people get really desperate and their money is tight, it forces them to make desperate decisions.” “The more risk you take, the higher your upside is.”   About Max Keller  Max is a real estate investor, bestselling author, and highly sought after consultant, speaker, and expert panelist on the topic of lead generation and marketing for real estate investors. In just a few short years Max went from being a full-time high school Math Teacher to flipping over 100 houses. Max’s unique marketing approach landed him onstage with Robert Kiyosaki being presented with the 2019 Industry Innovator of the Year Award. Fueled by his passion for real estate, Max is still a teacher at heart, and today he is going to share a strategy that’s working right now – in some of the most competitive real estate markets across the country – transforming ordinary investors into the TRUSTED EXPERT in the eyes of motivated sellers and private lenders.

Randy Lawrence

In this time of uncertainty, many investors are concerned about their investments going forward. Investors are concerned that the real estate industry will again face the economic downturn that we faced in 2006. This concern can turn to unnecessary stress and worry that hurts your health as well as your bank account.  That’s why we turn to Randy Lawrence aka “The Real Estate Preacher” to share with us his perspective on maintaining your health and business during this unpredictable time. Randy is a busy man, working as an asset manager, speaker, business owner, and preacher. As Randy will share, the only way he is able to maintain these jobs is through the right mindset, process, and people in place. Randy began his journey into real estate investing in 2003, when he noticed the higher returns in the real estate industry compared to the stock market. That journey lasted through the 2008 investing recession and continues to this day, 17 years later, with assets ready to hit a billion in the next few years. The secret to Randy’s awesome success in the real estate industry is what he shares in this special episode of Passion for Real Estate Investments. Randy talks about his strategy that allows him and his team to make money during good and bad economic times. He shares his thinking process and strategy for single family homes, flipping, improving his business, and how he is following a 30-year plan for his business’ billion-dollar future. Highlights from the Interview  Why he left Wall Street investments in 2003..to start investing in real estate The strategy behind Randy’s transition from residential to commercial real estate How did your business survive the 2008 recession? Why flipping houses is not as easy as it looks on TV The 3 keys to a creating a successful (and growing) real estate investing team Strategies for working with multifamily vs single family investments Why did many real estate businesses get their butt kicked in 2008? Biggest challenges as the leader of a real estate investing business Holding your team accountable…without losing them How he’s planning for a 30-year future for his business  About Randy Lawrence  Having begun his career as a traditional wealth manager, Randy understands finance and investing strategies in the broadest sense. Ultimately Randy determined that real estate was the ideal investment vehicle for his own portfolio, and early on (over fifteen years ago), he began partnering with other investors, to their mutual benefit. Today, Randy oversees a real estate portfolio of close to $100MM in multi-family assets and is on track to double these holdings in the next three years.

Greg Hughes

We’ve already covered real estate fund management @passion4rei series, but we haven’t dived into how to transition into the fund management side of real estate investing. That’s why our host, @fuquanbilal, sits down to chat with Greg Hughes, a fellow mastermind buddy and co-manager of four alternative investment funds. Greg began his career in real estate investing while house hacking at 19 and continued to grow as an investor and strategist reaching the point where he is today. Currently, he co-manages four alternative investment funds and has raised over $95 million in funds and gets cash flow from hundreds of houses in multiple states. Greg shares how he transitioned from a 15-year old with his own lawn care company to a real estate investor and strategist with an (almost) recession-proof diverse portfolio. He covers what he learned during the last housing crisis and how he and evolved to keep his cash flowing. Greg also gives insights into what he’s doing now to keep his business growing and scaling into the future. One big topic of the conversation was the 1031 exchange, a tax-saving investment strategy that you might not be aware of. Greg explains how a 1031 exchange works, how it benefits both the investor/owner and the person on the lease, and how to leverage it in different ways. On top of all that, Greg and Fuquan have a real interesting conversation about growth, scaling, and adapting as an investor. It’s one thing to start an investment strategy in real estate. It’s an entirely different thing to adapt that strategy in a changing world. Greg covers how he adapted his investing strategies before and during the recession and how he’s preparing now for the future. He also shares how he is scaling his business even more and gives insight into the challenges in that scaling process. Highlights from the Interview  How Greg transitioned from a 19-year old business owner/real estate investor to co-manager of four fund management companies Why Greg chose real estate &amp; alternative investments instead of the stock market Challenges of moving from property owner to fund manager How did your investing strategy survive the recession? How do I adapt my strategy for a new market? Planning a cash flow strategy to protect your assets Biggest challenges as a fund manager Dealing with outside property managers vs your own 1031 exchange – How does it work? What he’s looking forward to in 2020 Why investing in your education as an investor is critical to your success  About Greg Hughes  When Greg was only nineteen, he made his first real estate investment: he bought three houses on a half-acre lot, living in one and renting the other two.  After learning the value of a smart investment strategy, he partnered to build several commercial buildings from the ground up, which he still owns and manages today.  Over the last 10 years, Greg has raised $95 million and has profitably bought and sold 595 single-family residences in 22 states.  He is co-manager for four alternative investment funds: Hughes Capital’s current offering, a buy and hold fund, which purchases residential real estate in select U.S. neighborhoods chosen for long-term stability and profitability, Assuravest, LLC, which purchases non-performing notes in bulk at a steep discount, ROI Strategies, LLC, which owns homes in the single-family market with a rent to own model, and Sentinel, LLC, which purchases re-performing mortgages on single-family homes.  He is the co-owner of the operational companies Hughes Private Capital and Advanced Commission. A real estate and investment author and finance strategist, Greg has been a regular guest on Nevada Real Estate Radio, Money Watch Channel 2 News with Kristin Remington, The Blend in Las Vegas, and a speaker at the Small Balance Real Estate Summits. Greg was born and raised in Reno, where he lives with his wife, Tanja, of 30 years.  They have four children – Kayla, 27, Hayden, 25, Tate, 22, and Dexter, 20. He enjoys golf, tennis, pickleball, and snow skiing. The post Episode 36: Greg Hughes appeared first on PFREI.
