  • Episode 280: Drug Test Fail to a Road of Success, with Carl Scaramuzza

    Carl Scaramuzza founded his company, Credit Blueprint in 2011 with one simple goal: to help people use their credit to build real wealth and increase their net worth. He’s coached thousands of people and business owners on how they can leverage their credit, get access to other people’s money to multiply their assets, grow their net worth and ultimately, create a thriving financial future.

    Carl is more than just an entrepreneurial success story. His path exemplifies the principles he teaches his clients. Shortly after starting Credit Blueprint, he let his mortgage payments slip in order to build his business, and he lost his house in the process. But, he knew how to leverage his credit scores, access other people’s money and start building his business. Now, he’s exponentially grown his own net worth with a thriving, A+ rated business and he’s become a leading authority in credit and wealth coaching. Carl is ready to help you achieve financial freedom.

    Carl hosts “Other People’s Money” on Facebook Live; a weekly show where he explains exactly how you can get access to Other People’s Money via bank loans, private capital and everything in between. Growing your net worth is not about the monetary value in your bank account, it’s about leveraging your credit to amass high-value assets. Carl is the dominant net worth expert leading the charge, teaching business owners and entrepreneurs how the rich get wealthy and how his methods can help them reach that next level.

    What you’ll learn about in this episode:

    How the 2008 market crash and financial crisis led Carl from the business of mortgages to the credit industry
    Why the inability to fill a cup for a drug test prevented Carl from going back to mortgages, which worked out to be the best outcome for his career
    Why most real estate investors start out funding their businesses using personal credit cards, and why it’s ok to do
    Why unsecured lines of credit are very difficult to get, and why ultimately it doesn’t matter
    Why having great credit isn’t a prerequisite for accessing private money, but it certainly helps
    Why a 700+ credit score will open doors for accessing OPM (other people’s money), and why 700 is a far more important breakpoint than 800
    How Carl helps someone with a low credit score, and what mistakes Carl sees in people with low scores who are trying to repair their credit
    Why Credit Karma is a great way to discover your approval odds for obtaining new credit cards
    What negatively affects your credit and what doesn’t, and why credit inquiries hurt but denials for credit don’t
    How to use credit disputes to get negative marks from financial institutions removed from your credit report
    Why the ability to access other people’s money is the true key to building and growing your wealth

            During his career, Walter has bought and sold over 1000 houses and renovated neighborhoods in the central Mississippi area. Combining wholesaling, retailing and IRA investing provides an unbeatable strategy for today . . . and it can be successfully used in all areas of the country.

            Why Walter exclusively uses IRAs to fund his transactions and avoids the banks
            The reason Walter wants the payments to be reasonable based on what the resident can afford to pay
            How Walter makes more money from a note worth $450 a month than with $800 a month in rent
            Why Walter insists on getting a low-interest rate and considers it a deal breaker if he doesn’t
            Why Walter asks for a right of first refusal unless the owner is selling to a family member
            Why residual income is important, and why you should have an exit strategy already in mind when you go into a deal
            What a “substitution of the collateral clause” is, and how Walter used it to move one mortgage eight times
            Walter shares anecdotes of some of the more unique deals he has been able to complete in his career
            How Walter has built a “Financial Friends” network of investors to help connect people for deals, funding and other purposes
