In this episode of The Sub2Deal Show, we dive deep into a critical topic for real estate investors: Who is responsible for repairs in a lease option deal? As a real estate investor, it's important to know the legal and practical realities of managing repair responsibilities when offering a property on lease options. Key Takeaways: 1. You Can't Always Pass Repairs to Tenants: While some gurus teach you can pass all repair responsibilities to tenant-buyers, this isn't always true, and doing so may lead to legal trouble in many states. 2. Home Warranties Are a Smart Solution: Covering repairs with a home warranty can minimize conflicts with tenants and avoid costly out-of-pocket expenses for both parties. 3. Avoid Deferred Maintenance: Expecting tenants to handle repairs often leads to deferred maintenance, which can leave you with significant repair bills when the property is returned. Learn from real-world experiences and avoid the common pitfalls of lease options in this episode. Mentioned in This Episode: Just Getting Started & on a Budget?

Today, on this episode of The Sub2Deals Podcast, we discuss integrity...in real estate investing and more. Many people proclaim to be bastions of integrity, but the truth is, many of them do things when you aren't looking that they wouldn't want you to know about. Sure, some people are just bad people. They will go into a deal with every intention of screwing you over. This person certainly has a lack of integrity. What about a deal where things went bad that were out of their control? Do they not have any integrity? So many times in our business, people get a reputation for "lack of integrity" when it was nothing they did intentionally at all. The truth is...there is so much more to integrity than real estate deals that go wrong and some pretty self proclaimed pious people are lacking in it. We all screw up from time to time. We are humans. Forgiving a screw up is usually pretty easy. Forgiving someone who revels in being a jerk...that one is a little tougher. What You Will Learn * What is integrity? * What are some of the parts of integrity many people seem to forget about? * What should you do when you find yourself in a room full of people who lack critical components of integrity?

Today, on this episode of The Sub2Deals Podcast, we explain some misconceptions about the "safety" of sub2 deals. Most deals, including subject to deals, are safe...until they aren't. When a deal goes bad, many times it is due to things that are just beyond our control. It is easy for some GURU to tell you that if you use a trust to hold title, us an LLC as the beneficial interest of that trust, "paper" the deal properly, have reserves on hand, etc...your sub2 deals will be "safe". The REAL truth of the matter is, there are so many variables out of our control that NO deal is ever 100% safe. Subject to deals, with their added elements of difficulty and special situations, are more prone to problems. Problems from investor stupidity and carelessness, problems from tenants, sellers, buyers, attorneys, and more. Today we will discuss things you don't usually hear about and how you can be harmed even if you do everything right according to the "experts". What You Will Learn: * What are the most common ways a sub2 can go wrong? * What can you do to protect yourself? * Is there any way to make a subject to deal, or any deal, totally safe and risk free?

Today, on this episode of The Sub2Deals Show, we talk with Lease Option Expert Justin Chamness and get his recipe for the perfect Lease Option Sandwich! Meet Justin Chamness, a 47-year-old real estate maverick hailing from Independence, MO, nestled in the heart of the Kansas City Metro. Married to the lovely Angela Chamness, Justin has not only conquered the intricacies of the real estate game but has also mastered the art of living life at a sloth's pace. In 2001, Justin dipped his toes into the real estate waters, and by 2005, he was already making waves with his first deal – a savvy lease option that kickstarted a career full of twists and turns. Fix and flipping, however, turned out to be a chaotic rollercoaster, leading to a spectacular crash and a "back-to-the-drawing-board" moment. Undeterred, Justin found solace in co-wholesaling, a strategy that proved to be the magic elixir he needed. Rekindling the flame of lease options in 2014, Justin embarked on a journey that saw him close over 600 wholesale deals, both in his local market and far beyond. His resilience in the face of challenges is a testament to his adaptability and determination to turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones. But here's the twist – Justin isn't your typical suit-and-tie real estate mogul. In fact, he's a full-time professional sloth. Picture this: hammock-lounging, leaf-and-twig-nibbling, occasional tree-climbing – all in a day's work. When he's not in a deep slumber, Justin finds joy in snuggling with his stuffed animal entourage and catching up on daytime TV. Remarkably, this slothful lifestyle hasn't slowed him down. In a surprising blend of relaxation and real estate acumen, Justin has quick-flipped his way through over 600 successful wholesale deals. And if you're intrigued by this unique blend of entrepreneurship and leisure, Justin invites you to dive deeper into his world on www.ShutUpMoney.com, where his incredible journey unfolds in all its glory. So, whether he's sealing real estate deals or mastering the art of slothful living, Justin Chamness is a force to be reckoned with – a true iconoclast in the world of bricks, mortar, and well-earned naps.
