<b>Instant Investor Podcast</b><br> <i> (Formerly: The M.O.R.E. Podcast)</i>

A favorite quote of ours is by Napoleon Hill who said "Every adversity, every failure, every heartache, carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit".

It's a great reminder that tough or uncertain times always provide amazing opportunities… as long as we remain open-minded and solutions-oriented.

That's what true entrepreneurs do… and that's how our guests, Andrew LeBaron and Jacob Amezcua, uncovered an amazing opportunity amidst the chaos and craziness of the worldwide Coronavirus Pandemic.

What was the opportunity?

Snapping up distressed hotels/motels (many took a financial hit once the pandemic set in)… and converting them into multifamily properties!

But not all hotels/motels are created equal.

What areas should you buy in? Does the style of building matter? How the heck do you mitigate risk with so many moving parts?

All that and much, much more is covered in this riveting episode!

P.S. We also spend a good amount of time on how to find the "right" type of partnership.

Want to multiply your efforts and skyrocket your results?

The right type of alliance can certainly do that, plus a whole lot more.

The wrong alliance though… can torpedo your efforts – just as fast!

Andrew and Jacob share some practical tips and useful resources to ensure you're getting into partnerships for the right reasons… and with the right goals, expectations, and "chemistry".

Former U.S. President Teddy Roosevelt said…

"Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far."

Whether that's true or not depends on which camp you listen to…

Many successful people certainly live this principle (think Warren Buffett), but there are also many successes out there who are a little more bombastic about their achievements (think Donald Trump).

We think there's really no right or wrong approach… it really depends on who you are and which approach you're most comfortable with.

Now if you happen to be more aligned with the "speak softly" approach, you're going to love hearing how our guest, Tyler Rayman, is living this philosophy… and experiencing great success as a result!

Here's a sample of what we discuss:

• The power of asking good questions (the most undervalued and under-appreciated skillset to develop… but the most impactful!).
• Secrets of finding good and willing mentors… even if you're still "wet behind the ears".
• Compelling reasons to invest in Senior Assisted Living Facilities.
• Intricate details of how Tyler put together his first deal… even though he didn't have the down payment, couldn't qualify for the loan, and didn't have any experience!
• The trials and tribulations of buying an ongoing operating business (like an Assisted Living Facillity).
• Much, much, more.

More about Tyler Rayman:

Tyler is a licensed California real estate agent, and investor. He started his career in real estate shortly after graduating from Sierra Nevada University with a Bachelor's Degree in Entrepreneurship and Outdoor Adventure Leadership. Tyler began his multifamily investing career in 2021 by purchasing 2 assisted living homes in Denver, CO. His most recent purchase was a stabilized asset in Wichita Falls, TX totaling his portfolio to 108 units. Together, with his partners, they control over $17 Million in Assets Under Management.

So what compelled them to jump in and become "active" investors rather than only "passive" investors?

Their story will fascinate and inspire you!

Here's a sample of what we discuss:

• Insider tips on how to become a top notch "acquisition specialist".
• What you MUST do to create great relationships with commercial brokers… so you're one of the first one's they call whenever they have an incredible deal (they recently closed on a $17M deal that came from a broker they built a relationship with!).
• Want to become unforgettable? Do this…
• Where your focus should be… if you really want to deliver your projected returns.
• Secrets to maintaining a thriving marriage and business partnership.
