Scaling Smart: How to Grow Your Business Without Losing Your Mind

I have a confession to make, I have never personally flipped a home. And to be clear, what I mean by that is that I have never bought a property just to renovate it and put it back on the market. I have built homes to sell them retail - and I have renovated and also built homes to put on the rental market. So what am I missing by not flipping? In this episode you’ll hear from James Dainard who has flipped over 3,500 properties since 2005. He's also held some of those properties as rentals, as he currently owns  over 1,000 rental doors in the Pacific Northwest. James is a Managing Partner at the Heaton Dainard Real Estate brokerage and is featured on BiggerPockets as a co-host for their On the Market podcast. He also has a new book called “House Flipping Framework” which can teach you more about his house flipping strategy.  Another book you should have on your audio shelf is our new audiobook: “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business.” My husband Rich and I co-wrote the book based on our 20 years of experience growing our company RealWealth.

If you’ve already bought your first investment property, you may recall the initial fear you had about managing it. And that was just one property. But many investors find out it’s not that tricky, and quickly scale up once they’ve completed their first deal. It can become addicting to feel the success of multiple deals that help you create financial independence. We’re reposting an amazing and inspiring interview from someone who has done just that! Elaine Stageberg met her Fannie/Freddie 10-loan limit but figured out how to get financing for many more properties. She now owns more than 200 single-family rentals with her husband Nick, and other properties as joint ventures or within privately equity funds. Find out how she did it in this interview! And when you’re done hearing about Elaine's success, check out our new audio book “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business.” We share several success stories, including Elaine's, that can help you grow your own business. My husband Rich and I co-authored the book based on our more than 20 years of experience building our real estate investing company RealWealth. Elaine is a psychiatrist, a mother of four, and the owner of a private equity firm. She reached financial freedom at age 30, and currently manages a portfolio of over one-thousand doors worth more than $300 million. She lives in Rochester, Minnesota, with her husband and four young children. Please remember to subscribe to this podcast and leave a review! Thanks for listening!

Hey everyone! It's your LAST CHANCE to REGISTER for the SAN ANTONIO TOUR this weekend, November 2nd! Please join us for a fun time! 🏡👇 https://realwealth.com/tours/ This episode is part of our “Jumpstart Your Portfolio” series for both experienced investors and newcomers who’d like to use the equity they already have to buy investment property. That could be from rental properties you already own or even your own home. You could do a cash-out refi to get your hands on that equity, but if you have one of those super low mortgage rates, you might not want to give that up. So what’s the best way to put your equity to work? In this episode, you’ll hear from mortgage lender and real estate investor Richard Advani who has more than 16 years in the mortgage industry. He’s a lender at GuaranteedRate.com and specializes in helping investors. For many, that means finding a way to access equity and knowing which instrument is most cost effective. That might include home equity lines of credit, or HELOCs, the 1031 exchange, or even a cash-out refi, if that makes sense.  Richard has plenty of personal experience as an investor. He’s accumulated almost 20 rental properties in markets across the country. And when he’s not busy with real estate, he brings his enthusiasm to the race track as a professional race car driver with the Formula Drift organization. Thanks for listening, Kathy Fettke!

What's going on in the current short-term rental market? Does it still make sense? And if it does, how do you choose the right market and the right property in a specific market?  Our guest today on the Real Wealth Show, Avery Carl, will answer those questions and others as she delves into an asset class that can be unpredictable, but very lucrative. She’ll address how short-term rentals have evolved, where she likes to invest, how to deal with market saturation, what options you have for management, a few tax benefits, and how STRs compare to long-term rentals. Avery went from a $37,000 a year salary to a real estate portfolio of over 220 doors in just five years. That’s given her some valuable experience with this asset class. She is also the author of Amazon bestseller: “Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth” and the host of "The Short Term Show” podcast.  We offer property tours in markets that have proven worthy for our investors. And this November 2nd, we’ll be hosting one in San Antonio, Texas. We’ll be touring finished homes and presenting a new syndicated investment offering for a build-to-rent community. You can sign up for that or any of our other tours at realwealthshow.com, under the Connect tab.

If you’re already a real estate investor, you know that it gets easier after your very first property deal. That first leap can be intimidating. Our guest today will share how he's able to say “yes” to a deal, and how he's been able to scale his real estate business. Grant Francke is a successful real estate investor with a portfolio worth more than $8 million. With only a high school education, he succeeded in replacing the income from his W-2 job and is now managing his properties full-time. He also shares his story in a book called “The Unlikely Investor.” You can also get detailed information on scaling your real estate business or any kind of business in our new audiobook: “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business.” My husband Rich and I wrote the book based on our years of experience with our own company RealWealth. You can purchase the book on Amazon. Please remember to subscribe to this podcast! And thanks for listening!

While there's no guarantee that properties will increase in value, historically they have over time -- especially in high growth areas of the nation. But if you want faster appreciation, you have to create it. Real estate investors "force" appreciation by increasing the value of a property through updates, renovations, or development. In this episode, my guest Victor Menasce, shares how he forces appreciation on his properties. And he says it all starts with the right mindset.  Victor is a senior partner at Y Street Capital, the President of the Ottawa Real Estate investing Organization, and the host of The Real Estate Espresso Podcast. He's also the author of "Magnetic Capital." You’ll also find a wealth of information about growing your real estate business with our new audiobook: “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business.” You’ll find it on Amazon.

Do you have a rich brain? If you don't, you might not have a rich wallet either! It takes a certain mindset to be successful in business, and that includes real estate. If you don’t have the right mind-money relationship, you may find yourself sabotaging your wealth-building efforts not just once, but over and over again.  In this episode, you’ll hear from Bronson Hill. He’s a managing member at Bronson Equity and a general partner in more than 2000 multifamily units worth more than $200 million. He's also the host of The Mailbox Money Show, has spoken with more than 1500 investors, and has raised more than $40 million for his Real Estate and ATM Machine Fund deals. Bronson authored the besting-selling book, “Fire Yourself: Replace Your Working Income with Passive Income in 3 Years or Less” and a new book that’s about to be released called “Rich Brain.” Bronson loves to travel and has visited more than 30 countries. He’s also a lifelong learner who loves to read and a singer/songwriter who’s composed over 75 songs that he occasionally performs in the Los Angeles area. He likes to keep fit and runs every day, and hopes to help end modern day human slavery as a partner with the Dressember organization. Of course, he’s able to do all this because he earns passive income from his real estate business. He says on his website: “I believe the goal of generating wealth is not swimming in piles of cash, but in allowing people to more effectively fulfill their purpose in life.” If you'd like to continue reading and expanding your mindset, go check out our new audiobook, “Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self -Managing Business,” so that you can have more freedom to live life on your own terms.

I have a special guest here on the Real Wealth show today. I'm sure you've heard of him. In fact, you may have heard him during our virtual live event last Saturday.  Ken McElroy went from being a janitor, to  buying his first single rental property in college to building a multi-billion dollar business in apartments.  Does the quality of life diminish as the portfolio expands? It can, if you don’t scale your business wisely. That’s exactly what we cover in our new book, Scaling Smart: How to Design a Self-Managing Business. To celebrate the book launch, we hosted a virtual event with guest speakers sharing their own success stories. In this interview, you’ll hear the conversation we had with Ken McElroy. He’s a real estate veteran with over three decades of experience that began with one rental property in college. Today, his company manages a portfolio of over 9,000 units across Arizona, Texas, and Oklahoma, valued at more than $2 billion. While Ken has certainly put in the work and the time to grow his business, you’ll be amazed to learn that he now spends just 90 minutes a week managing it! Want to know how he does it? Hit “play” and listen to the interview. Ken’s expertise spans multifamily properties, commercial developments, property management, and strategic investing, which he shares in this conversation. Beyond his real estate ventures, he’s also a successful podcaster, YouTuber, and best-selling author. Check out more of his insights at his website Infinite Returns. And if you’re looking to scale your own business, be sure to get your copy of Scaling Smart, published by Bigger Pockets and available on Amazon.

How do you build a real estate portfolio when you already have a busy career that takes up most of your time? Former NFL star, Devon Kennard, can tell you exactly what it takes to do that. Devon played for the New York Giants and the Detroit Lions before he signed with the Arizona Cardinals. As a pro football player, he knew his career wouldn’t last forever so he carved out just five hours a week to work on his real estate side hustle and turn it into a cash-flowing portfolio that would maintain his lifestyle after football. In today’s episode, you’ll hear the kind of discipline and dedication it took to put his plan into action, how he’s created financial stability with four passive-income investing strategies, the mindset he needed to turn a side-hustle into a financial game plan, and how his efforts have turned out for him and his family. He’s also passionate about sharing what he’s learned and has written two books to help other people find financial freedom – “It All Adds Up: Designing Your Game Plan for Success” and his newly released “Real Estate Side Hustle: Four Passive Investing Strategies to Build Wealth Beyond Your Day Job.” And he says you don’t need a football player’s paycheck to do what he has done. You can also learn how to strategically build a self-managing business that’s profitable by reading our new book, “Scaling Smart.” My husband Rich and I co-authored the book, which just went on sale September 10th. Bigger Pockets asked us to write it based on our decades of combined experience with our real estate investing company RealWealth.
