Ep 184 - When Syndications Go Wrong (and How to Avoid Getting There in the First Place) - with Cori Zigman
Letting other people earn you double digit returns while you do nothing is a very enticing opportunity. When it comes to fruition it’s a fantastic thing. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always come to that point, however, and it can leave you in a very vulnerable position.
Adam Schroeder, Zach Lemaster, and Cori Zigman discuss investing in syndications: when things have gone right, wrong, and when you end up stuck in limbo. The 3 explore how you can protect yourself from the outset of the investment and set yourself up in the safest way possible.

Ep 181 - Evaluating the Viability of a Market for Short-Term Rentals & Avoiding the “Saturation Factor”
Short term rental markets all have different seasonality factors to them. Some are good year round, while some are barren during a chunk of the year. Plus, with the amount of STRs that are in the market today, how do you stand out in the field?
Adam Schroeder speaks with Hersh Rai and Clif Luber from Serenity Stays about how they evaluate short term rental markets, make sure they’re not entering a market that’s too saturated, ensure they’re not getting into an area about to crack down on STRs with legislation, and more.

Ep 179 - Finding Creative Ways Invest & Side Hustles | with Sam Haack
The term “side hustle” has become commonplace in the last few years. Some can make you a few bucks here and there, while others can potentially significantly increase your income. All of these streams can allow you to grow your investment portfolio much faster than simply saving your W2 or 1099 income to get the next down payment for a property.
Adam Schroeder and Zach Lemaster talk with Sam Haack about the creative ways he’s been increasing his income over the last few years, and how other people can emulate what he’s doing.

Ep 177 - How to Make, Keep, and Grow Your Money Using the 'Holy Grail of Real Estate' to Achieve Financial Independence | with Chris Larsen
Achieving financial independence is something everyone strives for. There are many paths, but eventually most people’s goal is to get out of the rat race and do what they love doing with their time.
Chris Larsen is no exception. After achieving great success in business he took a new path to success. Now he’s the proud owner of an investment most people don’t even consider: car washes. This little considered investment is something he’s able to get into without competing with the major Wall Street money and create a niche for himself that generates substantial (relatively) passive income.
Zach Lemaster and Adam Schroeder talk with Chris about his journey, how investing in car washes work, and how you actually run due diligence on an investment like this.
