FAR 187 Real Estate Leading Indicators Expected Air Date: 9/17/18 Opening Thoughts and Prayers: Hurricane Florence Nearly every event I attend or speak, someone is asking questions about the state of the market. Those who were paying attention 10 years ago when the market crashed are concerned it will happen again. We plan to continue to report on the state of the market as it goes through its ine...

FAR 186 Expected Air Date: 9/13/18 Opening One of the great opportunities in front of you as a real estate investor is the chance to invest your money through a Roth IRA, make profit, grow that wealth and one day when you retire, pay NO taxes on the profits. That's just ONE thing a self-directed IRA can do for you. We welcome to the show today a new sponsor, American IRA. American IRA is dedicated...

FAR 185 The Harvest Expected Air Date: 9/10/18 Opening Real estate investing is like the weather - it's always changing. But it's unlike the weather in that you usually have to wait more than 5 minutes to see the change. With real estate, a multi-trillion dollar industry in the United States, you have multiple impact points each with their effect, but individually are like using a bumblebee to ste...

FAR 184 Opportunity Spotting Expected Air Date: 9/8/18 Opening I get asked all the time about the market. When will this booming market end? Are we heading for a crash? When will it happen? How will it happen? What should I do to prepare? What's it like to live through a market crash? Where is the opportunity now? What is the hottest market? Where should I be looking for deals? What's it like to l...

FAR 183 Return Expected Air Date: 9/6/18 Opening Today we are going to talk about Returns. I'm not talking about tax returns - perhaps that's another show. I'm talking about the Returns you receive. Yes I'll discuss Return on Investment, but there's also Return on Cash, Return on Equity Return on Assets. But there are other Returns in life beside the financial. There's a Return on Effort, a Return...

FAR 182 Expected Air Date: 8/30/18 Opening I realized after we concluded Monday's show that I had promised to make fun of a "news" story about real estate and I had just run out of time. So I'm leading off today by keeping that promise to you. Real estate is not a controversial topic and is largely apolitical. We try our best to keep politics out of this show. But I suppose I shouldn't be surprise...

FAR 181 Expected Air Date: 8/27/18 Opening Good morning everyone! A year ago I predicted that by mid-2018 the real estate sales would be slowing down and heading toward a balanced market. Was I right? I've got the answer for you today. A month ago it looked like I had missed on this prediction but there is more news today that points to a conclusive trend. In a few minutes I'm going to dig into th...

FAR 180 Expected Air Date: 8/25/18 Opening We get one chance at this life. We owe it to ourselves to get it right. That doesn't mean we should expect perfection. What it DOES mean is we should take enough time to think about what we are doing and where we are going to improve the quality of our decisions along the way. When it comes to real estate it's easy to make a $10,000 mistake. But if you ma...

FAR 179 Expected Air Date: 8/23/18 Opening We've had great feedback from the home technology show with Don DeRosa. If you missed it you can still listen to it both on the Flipping America App, where it is show # 147 or watch the video of the interview on our YouTube Channel. But we continue to get questions about technology, not just the technology we put into our properties, but the technology we...

FAR 178 Seminar Seduction Expected Air Date: 8/20/18 Opening If you've been around this business awhile, going to networking meetings or REIA groups, you've seen it - the tire-kicker. Or as we sometimes refer to the person - the Seminar Junkie. It took me about two visits to the group to realize that the vast majority of people who attend these meetings or belong to the networking groups are never...

FAR 177 Expected Air Date: 8/13/18 Opening I have a great photo in my humor collection of a pig who looks like he's smiling at the camera. The caption says, "I turn vegetables into bacon. What's your super power?" I have an unsurprisingly large number of bacon jokes in this collection but this is one of my favorites. Humor aside, I want to ask you this question today. If you could have any super p...

FAR 174 Expected Air Date: 8/6/18 Opening Ok, I've given away my content a bit with the title "Feelings are Overrated." But I'm going to back it up. I'm reminded of a press conference with Coach Bobby Knight when, after a particularly difficult loss a reporter asked him how he felt. Even at the time I thought it was a dumb question, but Coach Knight didn't disappoint. He tore into the reporter and...

FAR 173 Expected Air Date: 7/23/18 Opening What are the guiding principles you use in your investing activity? We all think about returns, but do you consider other data points as well? Ok, some of you right now are asking, "what other data points?" If you are looking at a property to buy and hold and you are only looking at cash flow or only looking at capitalization rate, or only looking at net...

FAR 171 Expected Air Date: 07/19/18 Opening In the business of flipping houses, the challenging part right now is finding that next deal. Everywhere I go, the word is "deals are hard to come by. Everyone is bidding properties up, by the time it gets sold, it's no longer a deal." What can you do? Well, one thing you can do is listen to today's interview with Tony Lukashevich. Tony is the owner of R...

FAR 170 Expected Air Date: 07/16/18 Opening Your network is your net worth. We've heard that for years. The more you connect with people in this industry, or whatever industry you happen to be in, the more good things can happen. I can't tell you exactly how or when those results might begin to benefit your life, but I can tell you that your best success as an entrepreneur will come from the peopl...

FAR 168 Expected Air Date: 07/12/18 Opening Would you like to just sit down with a lawyer - off the clock - and pick his or her brain about real estate and business issues? Today you can. Well -- today you can, vicariously anyway. Coming up in a few minutes I'm going to interview a real estate attorney from Austin Texas, Ben De Leon. He is the President of De Leon Washburn & Ward, P.C. ( dwlawtx.c...

FAR 167 Expected Air Date: 07/09/18 Opening I was minding my own business at the pool the other day and a young man walked by with a shirt that read "Stop Being Poor." My first reaction was to be a bit startled, then amused. I thought to myself "he's inviting a heap of criticism upon himself -- I wonder if he can take it?" Then I realized we were at the pool deck of our building in midtown Atlanta...

FAR 166 Expected Air Date: 07/07/18 Opening I got a show full of news and your questions today. We are getting emails from some of you who are loving the guests we've been having and some of you prefer the shows where I talk the entire time. Your comments are about evenly balanced with a slight tilt to the guests. I personally prefer the guests because I usually don't learn anything new when I'm t...
