The Real Estate Guys Radio Show - Real Estate Investing Education for Effective Action

One of the secrets to making a lot of money is to catch a profitable wave.  Sounds interesting, but what does it mean?  Well, a financial wave happens when a variety of forces converge to move people or their money in a particular direction. That movement can have a substantial impact on any given asset class or geographic region - and the effect can be much more pronounced when the asset class or region is very limited in size.   That's why we've been intrigued over the years by the tiny country of Belize.  In this episode, The Real Estate Guys™ are on location at a beautiful beachfront resort on tropical Ambergris Caye (yes, it’s a rough life on the road as radio talk show hosts).  Here, we meet up with the #1 real estate broker in the country, who’s also the #2 international broker in the world for the #1 real estate brokerage in the world.  Yeah, he’s pretty big.  But he’s humble.  And he says the secret to his huge success is timing and location, location, location.  In other words, he’s riding a wave of surging interest in a particular part of Belize.  Very interesting!  So we turn on the microphones and ask him to tell us all about it.  Next thing we know, all kinds of real estate brilliance is falling out of his mouth!  Now we know why he’s so successful.  So grab your notepad and listen in as we discover how to catch a wave of opportunity and reap tropical profits in paradise!  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com

Consider how much you've learned in just the past 10 years from the books you've read, people you've met and experiences you've had.  Then imagine talking to someone who's been investing since 1957.  Do you think you could learn at least one important thing from that guy?  We think so, which is why we decided to interview our very own Godfather of Real Estate, Bob Helms.  Listen in and follow Bob's transformation from accidental to intentional investor.  He shares the lessons he learned along the way, and what he would do better if he could start all over.  So if you're less than 75 years old, there are probably some valuable lessons for you in this episode.  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed.

Nothing's more alluring to a couple of real estate guys than a low cut price and nice perky rents.  But is there more to consider when choosing a property for a long term relationship?   Our guest on today’s episode thinks so.  Ryan Hinricher is a big brained former bank analyst turned real estate investor.  He says before getting too enamored of pro forma potential cash flow, it's wise to look at other figures.  Sounds interesting!  Listen in and as we reveal the hidden beauty of blue chip real estate!  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com

It’s been said that for someone’s circumstances to improve, that someone needs to improve.  Most of us know that. Just like attaining the ideal body weight, we all know what to do. So why aren't we all there?  Because contrary to popular myth, knowledge alone isn’t necessarily power. Some would argue that discipline is the answer.  Perhaps.  But who has the discipline to continually fight against their natural inclinations?  So the secret is to transform one's self into a person who consistently converts knowledge into effective action.  But how?    Transformation turned out to be the impromptu theme of our 2012 Investor Summit.  The knowledge provided by our amazing faculty, including Robert & Kim Kiyosaki, G. Edward Griffin, Rich Dad Advisors Ken McElroy, Garrett Sutton, Tom Wheelwright, Andy Tanner and many other amazing teachers, provided the seeds of change.  But the magic was the environment created through the synergies of investors from all over the world as we learned, laughed and transformed together.  In this episode of The Real Estate Guys radio show, recorded in front of a live studio audience aboard the ship on the final day at sea, our faculty shares their reflections and most important takeaways from arguably the most powerful Summit we’ve ever had.  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.comcceed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com

Is there a scientific way to approach market selection?  Something the average real estate investor can actually do?  Our in-studio guest Tom Wilson thinks so! Tom enjoyed a 30 year enginerring and management career in Silicon Valley, but decided that Corporate America wasn't going to provide the kind of financial future he dreamed of.  Real estate looked good, but he'd heard some horror stories, so he decided to put his engineering background to work on designing a secure path to real estate riches.  Today he's done multi-millions of dollars in deals and owns over 230 rental units.  So while he's not Donald Trump or Ken McElroy, his formula seems to be working.  And he says a big part of his success has been thoughful market selection.  Want to know how he did it?  Then listen and learn as Tom Wilson gives us an engineer's perspective on real estate market selection.

How to get started with nothing is one of the most common questions we're asked.  Often, the people asking don't realize how limiting their paradigm is. Everyone has something to work with and most have a lot more than they realize.  Why don't they see it?  We think it starts with the right mindset.  Donald Trump says "Think like a billionaire".  Tony Robbins says "You don't lack resources, you lack resourcefulness."  We think learning cool real estate techniques like lease options, assignable contracts, concurrent closes etc. won't help if you don't have a courageous heart, a creative mind and a powerful compelling why.  Conversely, armed with those things, the real estate entrepreneur will find all the resources and opportunities they can handle - and a lot more!  The challenge becomes how to say no to the good, so you can say yes to the great.  So start by saying YES to this exhilarating episode of The Real Estate Guys™ radio show!  The Real Estate Guys™ radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed.  Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com.

Investing where the numbers make sense often means leaving your home town and scoping out new real estate markets.  It’s something we do often and have learned to enjoy.  Hot off an exciting exploratory trip to one market and a fun field trip to another, we thought we’d reflect on the what, why and how of visiting new markets.  And while internet search has made all kinds of data remotely available to the average investor, there’s still no substitute for being there.  So be here with us now and listen in as we discuss what we look for when we go on a real estate market safari!
