With Dave and Melina taking a much needed and well deserved vacation, Tim Wilkinson and Oscar Solares have hijacked the Flippin Off Podcast! We’ve invited a parade of club members to come into the studio to address three simple questions on our real estate investment club: Why did you join the club? Since joining, who or what has had the greatest impact on your life or your real estate investment business? Knowing what you know today, what would you share with those thinking of joining the club or considering being a real estate investor? There was so much content, we had to break it up into two episodes… please enjoy!

Ever made a mistake? Well guess what? We have, too! So many, in fact, that we've dedicated a second week to a discussion of some serious blunders, lessons learned, and opportunities for improvement. Not every real estate deal is perfect. We are all going to make mistakes. We hope you can avoid some by learning from our mistakes!

Ever made a mistake? Well guess what? We have, too! Dave and Melina sit with four other senior investors to discuss some serious blunders, lessons learned, and opportunities for improvement. Not every real estate deal is perfect. We are all going to make mistakes. We hope you can avoid some by learning from our mistakes!

Dave and Melina, again, sit with the same 13 other club members to discuss some of the common burning questions they get from the club. "What about forms? Where can I get them? Which forms do I need?", "What is the difference between the club and all these gurus?", "How can I add value to a team that's already working?", "What type of business entity do I need?", and maybe, just maybe, you'll actually hear how Dave and Melina met!

Dave and Melina sit with 13 other club members and chat about some commonly asked questions. Hear questions like, "How do I do this and still work a full time job?" or "How did Dave and Melina meet?" Listen up to hear some eye-opening disclosures of the road to success in the club.

Something a little different… Dave and Melina sit with Frank, Catherine, Tim, Peter, Christian and Oscar to capture an impromptu brainstorming session. Tons of enthusiasm stems from the recent enhancement of the New Wealth Advisors Club brand and lots of positive changes. The insights shared are indicators of those habits and actions necessary for success in the club. Everybody chimes in and you’ll notice a common theme: Relationships Matter. The “people" part of the club is the most important aspect of the club. It isn’t access to information. It isn’t access to money. It’s all about people and relationships.

Dave and Melina sit with Frank and Catherine Luna. Frank and Catherine had originally been tax clients of Dave's, before they even went into real estate. They had known Dave and Melina for a couple years before Frank was suddenly laid off in 2009. Inspired to make a drastic change, Frank followed Dave's lead and dove into real estate. They discuss their early struggles and the mirrored struggles of other club members who they now get to mentor. This moving discussion also encapsulates what the club means to so many.

Dave, Melina, and Tim Wilkinson have a chat with Chris Albin (aka Batman). Over a decade ago, Dave and Melina sought mentoring from Chris. The beauty of the relationship is that Chris wasn't a former real estate investor who subsequently decided to teach; he was an active investor with contemporary tools in his belt. If you're gonna do this business, you need to get off your computer and get with people who are doing what you want to do. The discussion centers on surrounding yourself with people doing actual deals who have developed teams with the tools needed to succeed.

After Mark Strayer got laid off he tinkered with the idea of becoming a real estate investor. Not yet ready to pull the trigger, he ended up working for the man to get back on his feet. Once his head was above water, the itch for a change, for something better, wouldn’t go away. This is when Mark circled back to a familiar home: New Wealth Advisors Club. Mark knew he had the social skills to build relationships and find motivated sellers, two cornerstones of real estate investing. But he needed more. He needed a community to guide him through closing deals and flipping houses and he wasn’t afraid to ask questions. Through NWAC, Mark was able to recognize his skill set and, more importantly, recognize what he needed and where to find it. Mark set aside his pride and asked for help. 65 days and two deals later, that humility paid off.
