The current economic climate has undoubtedly brought about challenges for many real estate investors, with interest rates doubling and lending becoming more difficult. This has impacted the cash flow of many investment properties, including self-storage and multifamily assets. However, despite these challenges, self-storage remains an attractive investment option for many reasons. Self-storage facilities are subject to the same market trends and fluctuations as multifamily properties. However, given the lower purchase price and operating expenses associated with self-storage, this asset class offers a strong return on investment. Despite being the son of a serial entrepreneur, Steven Wear started his career in Advertising and worked in the branding and marketing industry prior to his real estate career. Taking his advertising skills to real estate, Steven and his business partner Fernando Angelucci created the largest residential wholesaling business in Chicago while building a rental portfolio. However, toilets, tenants, and trash led Fernando and Steven to self-storage. Today, Steven Wear is co-owner and Chief Marketing Officer of Self Storage Syndicated Equities (SSSE), based out of Chicago. He joins the episode to share his insights and experiences with the self-storage asset class, from lease structure, tax, advantages, financing strategies, and rental rates to break-even occupancy. From his experience, Steven shares that self-storage is the most resilient and lendable real estate asset there is, and with the uncertainty in the market, banks are looking for assets that are able to collateralize the deposit. Self-storage also has the lowest default rate compared to any real estate asset making it very attractive. With this stability, even during economic downturns, it's not surprising that self-storage has become an increasingly lucrative investment option for both lenders and investors. Listen and learn how to leverage self-storage resilience to diversify your investment portfolio and take advantage of a secure and potentially profitable opportunity. Highlights from the Interview * Steven Wear’s transition from advertising to real estate * The advantages of investing in self-storage Vs. residential properties * Why Steven is so passionate about real estate investing * Self-storage resiliency and why it’s the best asset class in the market right now * Challenges that Steven has had in the self-storage space * Self-storage lease structure, rental rates, and break-even occupancy #investormindset #interestrates #realestateinvesting

Is it possible to work on a business with your spouse? How do you complement each other and handle family and business separately? Sometimes it’s hard to draw the line between family and business, but it is possible and doable. Tiffany and Josh have been working as a team, overcoming all the barriers to building a multi-million-dollar real estate business. They began their journey in 2015 by buying rentals and flipping houses. They flipped around 40 houses in their first year but unfortunately lost $106,000 on a flip.

Many private real estate investors are on the sidelines in the current market, just waiting to see where things will go. With inflation, you are losing about 30% of your money in the current environment by having it sit around and not investing it to gain value. Should you be on pause as an investor, or should you be actively engaged in finding deals? How should you pivot? Being in the business for over 19 yeast, Michael has great experience and insights into different markets. Though you might not be a bulletproof investor, learning from the experiences of others and their tricks can help you greatly.

Real estate has always been considered a safe asset, offering a stable return with the potential to grow over time. But that is not always a walk in the park. Today's real estate market can be volatile, and your property could be worth less than you paid for it when conditions change. Undoubtedly, we are experiencing a recession due to inflation and high-interest rates in the economy. Real estate has been affected in terms of demand, supply, and even financing. These new uncertainties demand a different approach and transition. You need to diversify your investment portfolio if you are to survive. Ron Walraven joins us for a chat on the current market, what investors need to be doing, and the predictions we can have in the next 24 months. Ron is a full-time investor & Broker with 20+ years of Distressed/REO residential sales and management, with consistent closing excellence.

The world has been through many financial crises, but people have learned from them. The 2008 market crash is an example of how diversifying your portfolio can protect you from the inevitable ups and downs. In addition to being in mobile homes, you should also be investing in rentals, home flipping, and multifamily investing. Lee Arnold joins us in today’s conversation to share the story of how he lost all his investments in the 2008 market crash and how that provided a learning opportunity to be a better investor in the preceding recessions. Lee grew up in a lower-middle-class family with a stay-at-home mom and a dad who was an HR manager. He had no real estate background, but at 18 years old, a TV infomercial that promised to teach people how to become rich through real estate started his long journey of investing. Being naive, he gave in to a 2hr seminar, and at the end, he was ready to give out all of his money and mortgage his trucks. In his first deal, Lee made three years' worth of income while working on a W2 job, which informed his career path to financial freedom through real estate. He began well on an upward trajectory. He was at the top of the world, enjoying the life of his dreams, until the market crash happened. At that time, he had over 40 million dollars of ground-up construction on luxury homes. Within 30 days, all the banks that provided him with loans literally became bankrupt. He lost everything. Lee learned valuable lessons in investing, and that is what has kept him on the winning side since resuming back in 2009. The market crash could have been painful, but it was the best thing that happened to him in terms of education. He became wiser to keep making money in any market situation. This episode has it all if you want to get some of his tips. Tune in!

You do not want to be the owner of a debt when the economy is experiencing double-digit inflation. After watching what was happening with inflation and interest rates, Jack Krupey pivoted to multifamily investments. What makes multifamily the best investment to curb that? Jack’s experience of over 20 years in the game brings insights into this niche. After reading How to Make One Million Dollars in Real Estate in 3 Years Starting with No Cash, Jack called his college landlord and asked for some advice. Fortunately, he was a real estate broker and owned about 20 houses, so he had good information that would be of benefit. Within two months, Jack bought a house with almost no down payment. He repeated the process and also got his broker’s license. When the financial crisis happened in 2008, it crippled his investments. That gave him an opportunity to relocate to New York (from New Jersey). He was fortunate to find a job at a private equity fund helping non-performing mortgages. For over ten years, Jack lived in New York and grew his knowledge in the mortgage space. Eventually, he got back into real estate as an investor to have that passive income and financial freedom. Since then, he has been passively investing in multifamily in various syndicated asset classes through his own fund, JKAM Investments. Apart from this, he also invests in self-storage, mobile home parks, and so on. Listen as Jack talks about what he’s currently doing in the multifamily space and an overview of the current market.

The buyers' market we're in is excellent for acquisition but not so great for disposition. More people are selling, while fewer people are likely to buy, which is why finding good deals is more challenging. There is a sense of urgency in the air with so much to choose from, and investors are scared. However, there are investors still putting money into deals and profiting from them. You may wonder how, but it’s happening. Micah gives “being intentional with your data getting you more deals,” as the answer. Understanding your data and constantly executing it will help you monetize it. Data gives you the best show-up to help the customer that needs you. It will also help you get in front of buyers and sellers at the right time to build your buy box. Micah uses data to predict when sellers will sell at a discount and get investors in front of them at the right time. The data shows that more customers than average will be available, but they need a professional investor who knows how to solve their problems on a deeper granular level. That is what Micah shares with Fuquan today. The interest rates are high but rearing your communication intentionality will enable you to execute your plans. It will also allow you to get more deals and be there when your buyers need you. Tune in to get insight from Micah’s top tips on leveraging your data intentionally to get more deals.
