Real Wealth Show: Real Estate Investing Podcast

2020 has been a tough year, and one that probably everyone in the world could say: "I'm happy that it's almost over!" In this episode, Rich Fettke will talk about how to practice gratefulness and create a positive mindset in time for Thanksgiving, and the New Year! www.RealWealthShow.com

Erica Marston went from stay-at-home mom to real estate pro with a little inspiration from Robert Kiyosaki and Real Wealth Network.

Today's guest started off as a pharmacist who wanted to create passive income so he decided to invest in rental properties. Ketan Patel didn't have a lot of money, but discovered that a shift in mindset would help him get rid of the fears and beliefs that held him back. He now helps other real estate entrepreneurs as a transformational coach. www.RealWealthShow.com

With the stock market and real estate at record highs, and now a change in U.S. leadership, a lot of people are concerned about a potential correction. Today's guest has been studying these things for a long time and he's got some insights and predictions for the real estate market in this episode of the Real Wealth Show. Bruce Norris of the Norris Group is known for his ability to forecast long-term market trends and timing. He is an active investor, hard money lender, and real estate educator with over 35 years experience.

Our guest today sent me a very sweet note. In it he said, "Having been a listener of your podcast for several years, I have learned about replacing my W-2 income with passive income from real estate investing." Well, that got my attention, so I invited David Vernich onto the Real Wealth Show to tell us how he's created a passive income stream, while working full time. David is a commercial loan officer who specializes in investor loans for the purchase of single-family rentals. He's also a long-time investor who started buying rental properties in 2007 and now co-owns more than 120 rental units www.RealWealthShow.com

Getting started in real estate doesn't have to be a difficult process. It just requires getting started. And the more you learn, the faster you'll want to get on it. Today's guest was working for a tech startup just 3 years ago - and it happened to be a real estate platform. And he was required to learn about real estate investing as part of the job. Well, like many of us, he got hooked, and thirty days later he bought his first four-plex as a house hack. Over the next two-and-a-half years, he grew his portfolio to 22 units, all in the St. Louis area where he lives. He's with me today, to share his story and offer some rock-solid advice for people wanting to get into the real estate rental business. www.RealWealthShow.com

Do you have a particular market where you'd like to own some rental property? Is it a market that you don't find listed on our website or haven't been able to get help with as an investor? Are you looking to purchase an investment property that may or may not be turnkey with property management? Maybe you'd prefer to renovate the property yourself? Or buy a home that you live in now and rent later? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you will love what we're unveiling at RealWealth. We are creating a network of RealWealth Certified Agents in markets outside our 18 core metros to give investors more options. Today, our Director of Investor Relations and Investment Counselor, Ben Erik Smith is with me to talk about this new national brokerage, and what it means for people interested in buying investment properties outside our established areas, and possibly in your own backyard! Ben has helped our members find hundreds of rental properties as an investment counselor. He's now in charge of launching our national brokerage. Welcome, Ben! www.RealWealthShow.com

The housing market is red hot. The national median home price rose 13% year-over-year in September. Active listings fell 28% to an all-time low. Sales of new U.S. homes accelerated by 4.8% in August, to an annual rate of one-million units. That's the highest since 2006. New home inventory fell to a 3.3 months of supply lowest level on records that go back to 1963. Will this home buying frenzy last? Or maybe we're in a new kind of COVID-influenced bubble? Who better to give us an update on the new home market than Robert D. Dietz, Ph.D. He's the chief economist for the National Association of Home Builders, with a focus on housing and economic trends, the home building industry, survey research, and policy analysis. www.RealWealthShow.com

Demand for single-family homes is skyrocketing in some markets, and the new build-to-rent trend is on fire to help meet that demand. Today on the Real Wealth Show, we'll hear from a property manager in Florida who's in the middle of this new rental strategy. He says demand is so strong, there's no shortage of tenants and that investors are lining up for newly available homes. Today's interview is also a preview of a virtual live event that we're hosting tomorrow. We'll have a panel of investors comparing their experiences with both turnkey and new rental homes, along with builders and property managers who can talk about what's available. The event is free. You need to be a RealWealth member, but it's free to sign up at realwealthshow.com, and free to attend the event. Here's Chris, with some very valuable information on several hot build-to-rent markets in Florida as well as Atlanta.

In this episode of the Real Wealth Show, you'll hear from a cash flow expert who retired "twice" by the age of 39. Chris Miles worked as a traditional financial advisor and stock coach for years, but now calls himself an anti-financial advisor who teaches people how to quickly get their money working for them (hint: he's big on real estate and not so big on 401k's.) He's also the author of "Beyond Rice & Beans," the host of "The Chris Miles Money Show" podcast, and he's been featured in U.S. News, CNN Money, Bankrate.com, and EOFire.
