On this episode of The Kevin and Fred Show, fellow Arizona Realtor and entrepreneur Steven Valentine returns. With over two decades in real estate, Steve is a wealth of knowledge on not only reinvention and what it takes to have longevity in this business. He also knows a lot about how to transcend the conventional real estate transaction and go beyond the listing. Our entire industry is centered on an asset class that people build income, wealth and empires on. Yet very few agents ever explore real estate investing opportunities in their own right. We’re often too busy trying to chase a quick paycheck, we miss out on the chance to build long-term wealth. This is a narrative Steve is hoping to change. 

Steve is a Real Estate Strategist, Entrepreneur, Speaker, Author, and founder and CEO of Valentine Group. With more than 20 years of real estate experience, he’s fanatical about handcrafting the right strategy for each client using his toolbox of absurdly effective techniques. He’s more super-hero when it comes to real estate investing and in his relationships with clients, employees, and family. He out-right refused financial ruin to build a retirement-sustaining real estate portfolio of more than $15 million in value. A portfolio that is so diverse and has been so fun to create, he’s educating others to do the same. In the past 5 years Steve has created a real estate business that encompasses all of today’s top strategies including traditional real estate, flipping homes, buying off market opportunities, building wealth for himself, his team, and his clients. 

The approach we take with a property can be the difference between getting a $4000 commission and a $15 000 real estate investing opportunity. But we can’t see that if we think from the perspective of a conventional transaction. We need to have the ability to take a 30,000 ft view of every specific real estate situation, and tailor the best approach. If we don’t make this shift, it’s impossible to build wealth in this business, and we’ll only go as far as our latest commission.
