As Washington looks to pass an imminent $3.5T package, Damion Lupo joins us as we examine potential changes proposed as it relates to Self-Directed Individual Retirements Accounts (SDIRAs), which may have an impact on future utilization as an investment vehicle into private commercial real estate transactions, and a potential pivoting strategy to consider using eQRPs®, a tool to design retirement vs. get destroyed by it.Damion has rebuilt his wealth since the first financial crisis of 2008 and can offer advice from the trenches - what to do, what to expect, and how to dig out. Damion has been a professional investor for more than 20 years starting with the purchase of his first rental house he charged on his VISA. That move snowballed into 150 rental houses in less than 5 years. In 2008 he lost the whole $20 million business only to bounce back and recreate his wealth in less than 5 years. iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/discovering-multifamily/id1506820688#episodeGuid=Buzzsprout-3366217 YouTube: https://youtu.be/7UhNTpX7Dw0     Website: www.redknightproperties.com/media     Spotify: https://lnkd.in/gfcVc3p   #financialfreedom #passiveinvesting #activeinvesting #investsmart #investwisely #buildingwealth #multifamily #podcast #Red Knight Properties #Anthony Scandariato #Brian Leonard #investing in real estate #investing in multifamily #investing in syndication

On Discovering Multifamily Episode 152, Randy Langenderfer joins us to discuss how he knew his job with a private equity firm wasn't a long-term employment situation, so he started looking for another source of income. After vetting many options, he settled on real estate. He started his real estate investing path by lending money to single-family flippers. Before he felt comfortable lending his hard-earned money to a flipper, he thoroughly vetted the company and it's leaders.Today, Randy focuses on multifamily investing. He's invested in many apartment syndications as an LP and he uses the same vetting process for syndication sponsors that he used before lending to single family flippers.Randy's Key Ingredient for REI success: Be an active passive investor. Get educated and thoroughly vet the jockey (the deal sponsor/GP team) and the horse (the deal/investment opportunity).  https://www.invest-ark.com/ iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/discovering-multifamily/id1506820688#episodeGuid=Buzzsprout-3366217 YouTube: https://youtu.be/qmQmdTvbKwM     Website: www.redknightproperties.com/media     Spotify: https://lnkd.in/gfcVc3p   #financialfreedom #passiveinvesting #activeinvesting #investsmart #investwisely #buildingwealth #multifamily #podcast #Red Knight Properties #Anthony Scandariato #Brian Leonard #investing in real estate #investing in multifamily #investing in syndication
