ABOUT | AVA BENESOCKY AND AUGUST BINIAZ:

Ava Benesocky is the CEO, and August Biniaz is the COO and CSO of CPI Capital. Together, they co-founded the company. CPI Capital is a Canada-based real estate investment firm in the business of discovering, acquiring, improving, and actively managing US Multifamily Rental Value-add Real Estate Assets. CPI specializes in identifying largely stabilized, revenue-producing assets that allow it to pay our investors regular distributions immediately after closing the property.

Ava started her real estate career nine years ago in Alberta. Daughter of highly-educated accountant parents, she was taught the quality of hard work from a young age. Ava was able to become one of the youngest award-winning top agents at REMAX. Two years ago, Ava relocated to Vancouver. Building strong community connections, networking with real estate professionals, and constantly pursuing knowledge in the real estate field has given Ava the experience needed to succeed.

Ava’s greatest asset is her ability to cultivate long-lasting, trusting relationships with clients and investors. Putting people before profits is a model that has helped Ava be successful and appreciated.

August is a real estate investment professional with a passion for sharing his knowledge and helping others reach their financial goals. He is the co-founder of Canadian Passive Investing, where he enables clients to earn substantial returns by investing in multifamily properties in the hottest US markets.

August’s real estate journey began as an agent in British Columbia, where he focused on local market trends and understanding his client base to meet their needs better. At this time, August was also flipping properties at significant margins. After numerous projects, August realized his interest in the construction industry and started his own development company, where he built custom homes.

On this episode of the Passive Income Attorney Podcast, Seth is joined by Ken Van Liew as they talk about how you can stack, scale and supercharge your investment returns! Ken has built Manhattan skyscrapers, studied under Tony Robbins, and has been responsible for over a billion dollars of commercial real estate construction across dozens of projects that have forever changed the New York City skyline. Learn how you can put your money to work for you, rather than the other way around. Enjoy the episode!

“If you want to create any type of process mastery, you have to mirror and model, but if you don’t set a basis for measuring, you’re not going to get the result that you want.”

HIGHLIGHTS:

Here’s a breakdown of what to expect in this episode:

• How Ken got into building Manhattan skyscrapers, the “apex” of commercial development

ABOUT | KEN VAN LIEW:

Ken Van Liew started his professional career with a civil design engineering job, twins, and two master’s degrees, underpinned with a six-figure debt and a burning desire to serve others.

Ten years later, he cut the ribbon on the development of a 17-million-dollar, 72,000 square feet, 113-bed assisted living facility. He parlayed this success into a Staten Island waterfront development and began a mastery journey with Tony Robbins. Unfortunately, while attending a Tony Robbins event in Hawaii, his waterfront development was terminated due to the World Trade Center tragedies.

This moment gave Ken time to reflect on where he was, where he wanted to be, and the impact he wanted to have. Alongside the syndication and development of over a billion dollars of high-profile real estate investments, Ken created the Modern Wealth Building Formula as the fastest track to building wealth – a project that has empowered thousands of developers over the last 20 years.

Simply put, Ken is a titan in the world of real estate responsible for over a billion dollars of construction across dozens of projects and has forever changed the New York skyline. In addition, Ken regularly speaks on stages, including NYU Real Estate Institute and the College of Engineering at Rutgers University, and is a best-selling author. Ken is an unsung hero in the world of stage magic, has been married for over 30 years, and is the proud father of three talented and successful children.

ABOUT | CHAD WITTFELDT:

Chad is an entrepreneur and a real estate investor. He started his entrepreneurial journey at a very young age. He quickly got started investing in equities and currency markets in his teens and later moved into real estate investments. While real estate has always been his interest, he didn’t know how to get into the market at the time effectively. So he put his skill set to use and has since syndicated over $30,000,000 in apartments.

This growth later spawned his marketing agency, where he serves other entrepreneurs by building their attraction-based marketing systems and automation. Today, Chad stays focused on his businesses, creating cash flow, and living a life they told him he couldn’t have.
