Real Wealth Show: Real Estate Investing Podcast

Our guest today was already retired when he found Real Wealth Network. He lives in California and had one rental property in Texas that he was managing himself. That was putting a damper on his fun years so he decided to exchange that one property for three rental homes in Ohio that he doesn't have to manage. What was a burden suddenly became an asset with a handsome cash flow. Find out how he did it on today's episode. You'll also find more information on how to do a 1031 exchange here (link). https://www.realwealthnetwork.com/learn/how-to-do-a-1031-exchange-rules-definitions/ www.RealWealthShow.com  

It seems pretty straightforward. You want to make a little extra money, so you put your home up for rent on Airbnb while you're on vacation. But what liabilities do you face in doing so, and how can you protect yourself with one easy phone call? It also seems like a simple process to self-direct your IRA and place your rental property in a checkbook LLC. It's a good way to protect yourself as a landlord, but there are things you must not do if you don't want to put your entire IRA at risk. We'll be discussing these and more on today's show. Eric Nixdorf is one of the few real estate attorneys in the country who specializes in tax law, bankruptcy, and real estate. He's also a real estate broker and an investor himself.  It's been a long time since we spoke, and since I love getting free legal advice, I thought I'd invite him back as a guest.

Understanding your market is the first place one should start when vetting  a real estate deal. If a metro area is not growing, neither will the value of your real estate.

A few years ago, I went on one of Real Wealth Network's real estate tours to look at rental property in Detroit. And on that trip, I was surprised to meet a man who had flown all the way in from Sweden to join us! We have members from all over the world, but meeting a visitor from Sweden was a first for me. After I started talking to Magnus, I realized he was not just on the tour to see a few properties. He was building a full U.S. real estate portfolio.   Several years later I saw him at another Real Wealth event and wanted to see how he was doing. He told me he'd learned a lot on his journey -- like the importance of not buying in flood zones, how to do a smooth 1031 exchange and why it's so important to screen tenants carefully.  He's planning on joining us at our next event in Cleveland on August 10th, when all 15 property providers from around the country will be joining us.

We've got a real smartie on today's show. Daniel Kraft is a Stanford and Harvard trained physician-scientist, inventor, entrepreneur, and innovator. With over 25 years of experience in clinical practice, biomedical research and healthcare innovation, Kraft has served as Faculty Chair for Medicine at Singularity University since its inception, and founded and is chair of Exponential Medicine, a program that explores convergent, rapidly developing technologies and their potential in biomedicine and healthcare. What does this have to do with real estate investing? Well, as we learn more about how artificial intelligence is being used for healthcare and other technological advancements, there most certainly will be an affect on real estate. If people are living longer, they won't be moving out of their houses as quickly. There may not be as much need for hospitals or assisted living facilities. People also would likely outlive their money. Daniel Kraft has multiple medical device, immunology and stem cell related patents through faculty positions with Stanford University School of Medicine and as clinical faculty for the pediatric bone marrow transplantation service at University of California, San Francisco. www.RealWealthShow.com  

Our guest today is 30 years old, and about to get married. Three months ago, he took the big leap from his full-time job and is now a full-time real estate investor and the owner of Shane Adams Real Estate. He has six flips and seven doors under his belt, and is looking to do a lot more. He's here to tell us how he did it. Shane, welcome to the Real Wealth Show! www.RealWealthShow.com  

Our guest today probably broke her financial planners advice. Right at retirement age, she took her money out of the market and invested it in cash flowing real estate out of state. Some would call this extremely risky. Real estate investors might say it's a way to secure one's wealth to hard assets during the golden years. Let's see what Irene says, Welcome! www.RealWealthShow.com  

On today's show, I interview my sister, Danielle, who's faith has kept her alive and thriving -- even through some of life's greatest challenges.

Our guest today spent a lot of time helping other real estate investors get rich. She is a home renovation designer. One day she realized that she was a large reason why properties were selling for higher prices and owners were making a killing, but she was only getting her hourly rate.  And that hourly rate was not going to help her and her husband retire in time. So she found  a solution. George and Sue realized that being the owner of property was the way they could accelerate the growth of their retirement plans, so they started looking into how they could do it. They began to search the country for the best areas for investing in flips. But then they heard me talk about buy & hold investments on another podcast - and realized that with their busy schedule, this might be a better way. They were nervous because they had owned property in the past, but with poor property management. So before buying anything else, they had a whole lot of questions. And these questions I thought would be really helpful to our audience.    Sue and George, welcome!

U.S. long-term mortgage rates fell again this week, marking an entire month of declines. This will likely lead to a robust Spring buying season. For real estate investors, low rates increase cash flow, especially when rents are on the rise. It's a great time for real estate investors to lock in low interest rate loans that increase cash flow, all the while rents are increasing. Our guest today has helped real estate investors since 1997 to get the loans they need to build a robust real estate portfolio. He's not just a loan broker. Aaron Chapman finances about 700 transactions per year for real estate investors and gets to see where they are successful and where they are failing. And he uses that experience to coach others. And he's here with us today on the Real Wealth Show. www.RealWealthShow.com
