EP402: Ryan "Rotty" Garcilazo Breaks Down How To Pivot During this Pandemic, and Details Exactly What You Need to do if You're Rehabbing Properties

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?

EP401: DISPO, DISPO, DISPO! Focus Now on Dialing-In the Dispositions Side of Your Real Estate Business

With everything that's happening right now, Alex shares some of his tips on what to do next while we head into the unknown. It's time to get your disposition side really strong because we are quickly transitioning into a buyer's market! Communicate with your existing buyer's to find out what they want, and go build new relationships! Key Takeaways: This is a time to be a leader. We are quickly changing from a seller's market to a buyer's market. Have important conversations with your buyers on what they want and what they're looking for. Get specific information so you can start looking for those deals and honing in (i.e. Reverse Wholesaling). Anytime you see a 'we buy houses' bandit sign, call that person. Pull all the cash transactions that have been happening in your area for the last six months and skip trace them. Contact real estate agents. Get inventory off your books.

EP400: ASCEND Mastermind Call - How to Prepare & Navigate (Personally & Business) Through a Changing Real Estate Market

Alex & Steve recently hosted a private, ASCEND members-only Mastermind call to discuss how they can prepare and navigate, both personally and in business, and you're about to get access to the first hour of that call. Alex & Steve dive into Mindset, and share practical, strategic advice from a business perspective. Now more than ever is when you want to be connected to a community like ASCEND, so if you're interested in learning more, apply here. Key Takeaways: THANK YOU for allowing us to reach the 400 episodes milestone! Alex greatly appreciates you! Alex wants to give you a sneak peek behind a recent ASCEND (members-only) mastermind call. The news just perpetuates more fear and can be very negative. Regardless of some of the tough things that are happening right now, this is going to pass. Mindset is critical in a time like this. Before you make big decisions, ask yourself if it's fear-based or if this is strategic. Are you operating out of FAITH or FEAR? Don't feel prepared? That's what Alex and Steve are here for. Now is the time to step up as a leader. Exercise is so important! Don't stop just because the gyms are closed. Cut out all non-essential spending right now. Make sure you have some cash reserves on hand (both personally and in your business). Survey the landscape and be strategic! Follow-up is gold right now. Keep doing it. Alex is sending a customized two-page mail piece. Communicate with EVERYONE! Over-communicate if need be. Stay connected. Think through if you need to redefine your "buy box". Some courts are closed right now, so it's going to affect your deeds. Transaction coordinator side: babysit your deals to the closing table. Remember, be a professional. Go above & beyond for people. Look at money outflow right now and ask yourself if this expense is producing the results you want? Alex does a quick rapid-fire session on what you should be doing right now. Should you decrease the size of your team? Don't have enough cash on hand? Consider liquidating assets. As of this moment, President Trump is suspending foreclosures and evictions to the end of April. Reach out to your tenants and keep the lines of communication open. Don't try to time the market. Use this opportunity to improve yourself, and tighten up your business processes / systems / KPIs, etc. If you are able to automate your rents, do it right now. If you are considering buying a short-term rental, make sure you have multiple exit strategies.

EP399: In Times of Uncertainty, Here's What You Need to Know (& Keep in Mind)

Alex wants you to remember that what we're dealing with right now is not going to last forever! Yes, people are afraid right now and it's your time to step up and really shine by over communicating with everyone who works with you. Your team, your sellers, buyers, lenders, etc. Everyone! Check in like you are checking in with a close family member and see where you can add value. Key Takeaways: Remember this crisis that we're in now is not going to last forever. It's important to acknowledge your team member's feelings and help them through this uncertainty. This is the time you need to shine. Are we headed into a recession? Times like these we need to be over communicating, even if it's about the news people don't want to hear. Talk to your top buyers and see how they're doing. Ask your sellers how you can help them beyond your traditional business services. Make sure you're doing right and make sure you're taking care of the people in your community. If someone was working with your grandmother or a loved one, how would you want them to check in with them? What should you be doing with your marketing dollar right now? Follow up, follow up, follow up. The sellers who said no, check up on them now, how are they doing? Mail a hardcopy of your contract to hot sellers who you've been to appointments with. Take a look at your 'luxury hires' and see where you can trim down. Remember, be a professional. Stand out from the crowd and caring for the people you serve.

Let Alex know what you'd like to hear: flipempire.com/feedback . Tweetables: "Always, always, keep all lines of communication open. Now is the time to over communicate with people."

EP398: My Thoughts on the Coronavirus, and Why Now Is the Time to Step up as a Leader!

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.

"There're 7,000 agents on the market right now, it's super competitive and these agents are hungry, so I don't mind giving up the 3% commission."

Alex is incredibly grateful for the opportunities that have come through this podcast and the relationships he's built. Today, he offers some valuable words of advice on why it's so important to always GIVE before you ever ask for anything (and how to approach people of influence).

EP394: 26-Year-Old Rock Star ASCEND Member (with 44 Rentals and Over 100+ Flips), Shares His Most Painful Learning Lesson, and Why You Sometimes Need to Borrow from Other People's Confidence

Brentin Hess started his real estate career when he was 19. He is 26 years old today and has 44 rental units (and has done over 100+ flips). He is currently coaching/mentoring 20+ people to help them through their real estate journey. Brentin shares the types of mistakes investors are making early on, why sometimes you need to borrow from other people's confidence, and how it only takes 7–10 hours of week of pure focus to succeed. Key Takeaways: How did Brentin get started in real estate? Brentin grew up around real estate, but his parents didn't know how to invest in properties. Brentin believes in hiring coaches. That's how he was able to build a 44-unit portfolio before 26. There's a positive ROI when hiring a coach. Do not be in a situation where it's the blind leading the blind. In the beginning, Brentin saw coaching as an expense, not an investment. Brentin really thanks his parents for helping him. He took a DISC assessment when he was 16 years old. When you're struggling financially, keeping yourself sane mentally can sometimes be the only thing you can fall back on. What keeps Brentin going forward? How does Brentin borrow from other people's confidence? Brentin recently had a partnership that went bad. He explains what lessons he's learned from it, so far. If something makes you uncomfortable, lean into it. Treat other people's money better than your own! Brentin has seen his parents get burned by an accountant who embezzled money from them. The quicker you take action, the sooner the uncomfortable feeling will go away. Brentin is currently coaching 23 people right now. What are some of the common mistakes investors are making? All it takes is 7–10 hours a week of focus. Don't let shiny object's distract you! Remember, it takes time to get a good marketing strategy going. Consistency is key! Mindset is something you should be working on and sharpening on a daily basis. What advice would Brentin give his younger self? Mentioned in This Episode: How To Grow Your Business, Expand Your Impact, and Experience Your Perfect Life: Don't Wait To Enjoy Your Life Tomorrow, Live It Today! Connect with Brentin: Brentinhess.com Brentin on LinkedIn Tweetables: "When you find the right coach, ultimately that's when you're going to take it to the next level." "They might have everything they need to have in order to succeed. They might know everything they need to know in order to succeed. They just haven't succeeded yet." "If you're truly committed to this, then give me 7–10 hours a week of focus." Ask Alex A Question: Have a question you want featured on an upcoming Flip Empire Show?
