My guest today started investing in Real Estate by buying and selling over 100 single family homes before transitioning into multifamily. Within 3 years he went from owning zero to 300 units across the country!
Sterling White is an investor and business owner on a mission to make the world a better place through principled and efficient real estate investment. He's also helped other investors raise money for their deals and attract private money through a software platform he co-developed called "Syndication Pro".
Today Sterling and I discuss how he was able to grow his portfolio so quickly, and the differences he sees between fixing & flipping and owning multifamily. Sterling also has some great stories on the methods he uses to build rapport with sellers and investors, and how a 'thank-you' card helped him beat out multiple higher offers.
Sterling will also share why he avoids brokers and prefers to find off-market deals. We'll also talk about syndication and why he helped design and build an on-line investor portal to make the process more efficient and profitable.
Sterling shares a lot of great knowledge in this conversation that will be helpful to anyone looking to find off-market deals or raise money from investors. You can contact Sterling through email or his website:

Sue Nelson has constructed almost every type of creative real estate deal: commercial short sales, loan modifications, options, master leases, JV agreements, and note buys. You name it, she's done it! That's why I actually joined Sue's coaching group several years back - I knew that I could learn from her experiences to help get me to the next level as a real estate investor.
And today Sue is going to talk about the different ways she's invested in Multi-Family and Apartment Real Estate. We'll discuss how she structures her deals with sellers and investors, how she knows whether or not she's investing in a good area, what you must remember when working with a broker, and what it takes to become a transaction engineer.

37 years ago, Jeffrey Taylor and his wife became accidental landlords. But they had no way of knowing that long ago, that the mistakes they were making and the challenges they were facing, would someday go on to inspire tens-of-thousands of real estate investors and landlords across the country.
Today you will find out how Jeffrey Taylor transitioned from being a full-time school teacher into Mr. Landlord, a highly sought-after speaker, trainer and author who has spent the past 34 years teaching landlords how to treat rental property as a business, increase their cash flow, and reduce their headaches along the way.
