"You can invest 10,000 hours and become an expert or learn from those who have already made that investment." - Jack

Paul Wakim got started in the real estate industry in 2016 right out of college when he and his then girlfriend Shannon (now wife), started a real estate photography business with a drone that she had bought Paul as a graduation gift. Paul was absorbing tons of knowledge about real estate investing from podcasts, agents, and investors he was dealing with and eventually decided to get his real estate license in 2017. Through being an agent,  it dawned on him - there is no real estate without a seller and all the sellers he talked to as a photographer and agent were selling their homes for the same 5 or 6 reasons. It was around this time in 2018 that Paul taught himself how to code in Python to create an algorithm to predict who was going to sell their home next by identifying people who showed signs of those 5 or 6 common selling traits. Later, he met his great friend and TwnSqr co-founder, Mitch Tracy while rock climbing. In mid 2019 Mitch quit his job to come work on TwnSqr full-time to refine and drastically improve the algorithm.

Through trial and error, Paul and Mitch ended up with the version of TwnSqr that we have today - the premiere off market property dispositions tool that connects real estate investors with one another and, eventually, the largest institutional buyers in the world. Their goal is to support sellers, investors and buyers of all sizes through world class technology! 


We chat about:

• The benefits of having direct access to institutional buyers
• How investors can monetize their buyers lists without giving up the IP
• The future of JV partnerships between REIs, wholesalers and off-market property sellers
• The origin story of TwnSqr ,Paul’s motivation for starting it, how the future of TwnSqr will support the future of the industry 
• The Slow Burn - How Paul acquired a property for $1 over 2.5 years
• The value of relationships with sellers and with buyers in this space.

Motivated by numerous mentors and excited about real estate, Max Fisch started out as a mortgage originator in the early 2000s and within one year, completed his first flip, netting a significant profit. Over the years, Max has completed hundreds of real estate transactions between financing, wholesaling acquisition, rehabbing, and long-term investing.

Based in the suburbs of Philadelphia, PA, Max focuses on residential real estate in the Philadelphia and surrounding suburban markets. Using virtual assistants, Max has been able to scale up his business to the size he wants, without overburdening him or his team. With an average deal size of $500k+ his operation is low volume with 4-6 rehabs annually. In addition, he and his team complete, on average, 25-35
wholesale transactions each year.

After being burned by numerous property managers, coupled with the rising costs of marketing and lead generation, Max knew
he needed more control of his properties and business, without sacrificing his own time. As a result, he founded Real Estate Project Solutions, a full service Virtual Assistant Agency that caters specifically to the real estate industry. His management team helps real estate investors, agents, and entrepreneurs outsource any area of their business in order to save on payroll costs and time to maximize profits. With today’s technology, his team can easily take the guesswork out of hiring, training, and managing Virtual Professionals for investors of all portfolio sizes.
