Jake and Gino Real Estate Entrepreneurs

In this week’s show, Julia and Gino are joined by Nathan and Monica Herber, a happily married couple of 12 years and proud parents of Caiden Emmanuel, their adopted 5 year old son with special needs.  They made the leap into multifamily real estate investment at the start of 2020 by blowing up their retirement savings. They, however, consider this to be the smartest financial move they ever made! Currently, they own 49 units in joint ventures and are working to develop new, attainable housing in their new hometown of Greenville SC.   Nathan, originally from Lafayette, Indiana, is the Founder of Cornerstone Community Capital LLC and a licensed architect with 15 years of experience in commercial and mixed-used real estate developments.  Monica Herber, a native New Yorker, is a Certified Life and Marriage Coach, the creator and blogger of The Joyful Unknown, a website dedicated to helping other parents like her find joy in the journey of special needs living.   Julia & Gino have been close friends of the Herbers for years, and were honored to have them on the show to share their story of personal growth, from struggling with infertility, to adopting a special needs child, to moving out of NY and relocating to a city where they had no friends. Nathan had a revelation one day that if he metaphorically went deeper into the woods, he would discover more about life and that would lead to personal growth. And every time the couple decided to “go deeper into the woods,” amazing things happened to them.   Monica also shared her personal belief of living with joy every single day, and not to take anything for granted.  She recently studied and became a certified life and marriage coach, which has led to more joy and happiness in her life.   To learn more about Monica, visit The Joyful Unknown.   Nathan can be reached at Cornerstone Community Capital   We're here to help create real estate  entrepreneurs...  About Jake & Gino: Jake & Gino are multifamily investors, operators, and owners who have created a vertically integrated real estate company.

Achievers never stop. They are always chasing the next thing. In this episode, Jake and Gino talk with Moneeka Sawyer who has been investing in Real Estate for over 20 years and has seen all the different cycles of the market. Through her strategies, she has turned $10,000 into over $2,000,000 working only 5-10 hours per MONTH with very little stress. Some of the key takeaways from the Podcast are as follows: When you become financially free, you tend to chase opportunities not money. Spend the time with your family and your loved ones, because time never comes back. Don’t assume you will get everything you want when you achieve that goal. Fall in love with your actions, with the process. Stay aligned with your core values and you will achieve the state of bliss in life. Strive for clarity. Be very clear about what you want in life. Everyone faces money problems. It is up to you whether you want to have poor person money problems or rich person money problems.

Julia & Gino dive into the book Mindset, by Carol Dweck, and share their personal stories of when they exhibited a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. They begin the show by discussing the fixed mindset, the mindset that feels the need to prove themselves, that is ego driven and takes failure personally. The fixed mindset individual tends to become less active and involved when they become depressed. People who consider their personal qualities unchangeable have a fixed mindset. The belief that skills, intellect and talent are unchangeable live in this mindset. FInally, the fixed mindset does not take responsibility for their lives. It’s always someone’s fault, or it’s the situation that is holding them back.   On the other hand, the people who think they can improve or change their personality traits over time have a "growth mindset." The belief that skills, intellect and talent can be developed through practice and perseverance.  They are responsibility junkies, and are not worried about how they are perceived, and their motivation is in constant improvement.   The couple give examples of famous people who exhibit both mindsets, and show how the growth mindset led more to happiness and fulfillment. They discuss how one can begin to adopt a growth mindset by:   Learn new skills. Life coaching. Don’t focus on self. Have a desire to learn. Surround yourself with growth mindset individuals.   The couple also discuss how a fixed mindset can destroy relationships and communication amongst couples, and can strain business relationships as well.   Choose NOW to begin adopting a growth mindset!

Bill Hamel has been a successful multi family real estate investor since the 90’s.  He started buying smaller investment properties in the Albany, NY area with a childhood buddy.  Once established in this space, Bill continued building his portfolio by adding his brother as another partner. He added larger multi family properties into the plan and accumulated well over 200 units in the portfolio.   Bill operated an in house property management company focusing on great customer service maximizing resident retention and referrals.   In 2017, Bill decided to transition from an operator of their portfolio to focusing his efforts on large multi family assets.    Bill plans to utilize his many years in the business by sharing larger, profitable investments with like minded, active   investors along with providing access for passive investors seeking alternate, high yielding investments to diversify their portfolio.
