Welcome to the Freedom Point Podcast! In this episode, Matt Iverson, founder of Veritas Equity, shares his journey from running a successful real estate brokerage in Vail, Colorado to becoming a multifamily investor and syndicator. When the pandemic hit, Matt's booming sales business led to massive tax bills—until his accountant introduced him to the power of commercial real estate investing. He breaks down how qualifying as a real estate professional transformed his financial outlook, the importance of partnering with experienced operators, and why multifamily is one of the most resilient and scalable asset classes in real estate. Matt also dives into his philosophy on buy-and-hold investing, the long-term housing shortage, and how to stack passive income to achieve financial freedom.

Tip #1: Turn Tax Burdens into Investment Opportunities "I was writing painful tax checks until my accountant explained how to invest in commercial real estate—and everything changed." Matt shares how learning about depreciation and tax incentives opened his eyes to wealth creation beyond brokerage income.

Tip #2: Qualify as a Real Estate Professional "If you qualify as a real estate professional, you can use passive losses to offset active income—it's a total game changer." By meeting IRS qualifications, Matt can apply real estate losses against commission income, reducing taxes and freeing up more cash for reinvestment.

Tip #3: Partner with Experienced Operators "The only way I could scale quickly and safely was by partnering with operators who had dozens of successful deals." Matt emphasizes that aligning with proven operators is key for new investors who want to reduce risk and build credibility with their own investors.

Tip #4: Multifamily Is a Fundamental Need "We're between four and six million housing units short in this country—demand isn't going away." Matt chose multifamily because it provides essential housing that's always in demand and mirrors the fundamentals of his brokerage business.

Tip #5: Buy and Hold Long Term "The wealthiest people I know just buy and hold. Everything's for sale eventually, but the long game always wins." Matt's strategy centers on owning quality suburban multifamily assets near strong schools and communities for consistent appreciation and cash flow.

Tip #6: Do the Research to Eliminate Fear "Risk isn't risk if you've done the research." He explains that fear fades with preparation—knowing your market, partnering with experts, and learning from past cycles helps mitigate risk and increase confidence.

Tip #7: Stack Wins and Build Momentum "Your first deal doesn't make you financially free—but it starts the process." Matt encourages investors to celebrate small wins, like when passive income begins covering everyday expenses, and to keep stacking investments over time.

Tip #8: Vet Operators Through Transparency "Ask operators about a deal that went bad—how they handled it says everything." He stresses that transparency and open communication are vital traits in any partnership.

Tip #9: Cash Flow Over Equity Events "Equity happens. Cash flow is planned." Matt's focus has shifted from flipping homes for quick equity to investing in long-term, cash-flowing assets that create sustainable income.

Welcome to the Freedom Point Podcast! In this episode, Brian Herriot shares his journey from corporate advisor to entrepreneurial coach, where he now helps people pursue what he calls time freedom. Unlike financial freedom, which often feels distant and unachievable, time freedom is about designing your work and life so you can enjoy extended seasons off while still building wealth. Brian explains his "time freedom formula," the difference between chasing a savings mountain versus building a river of cash flow, and why structuring your schedule around seasons can unlock creativity and clarity. He also dives into the mindset shifts entrepreneurs need to break free from traditional work-life balance, sharing strategies to work less, do better work, and live more fully. This conversation will challenge the way you think about success and inspire you to reclaim your most valuable resource: your time.

Tip #1: Redefine Freedom as Time, Not Just Money

"Financial freedom means you don't have to work anymore. Time freedom means you still work but on your terms."

Brian reframes the traditional goal of financial freedom into something more achievable: structuring work so you can take seasons off without sacrificing your lifestyle.

Tip #2: Work-Life Balance Doesn't Work, Think Long-Term Alignment

"Balance is about managing hours and days. Time freedom is about designing your life in years and decades."

Instead of obsessing over daily balance, Brian encourages a bigger-picture perspective structuring your work around the life you want to live.

Tip #3: Focus on the One Thing That Multiplies Value "If you love it so much it feels like play, and it grows your business exponentially, that's your one thing." Drawing from 10X is Easier Than 2X, Brian highlights that exponential growth comes from focusing on a single valuable skill, idea, or relationship that can transform your business.

Tip #4: Build a River of Cash Flow, Not a Mountain of Savings

"It's not about climbing a mountain of savings it's about creating a river of cash to cover your lifestyle every year."

Brian introduces the "time freedom formula": cover your annual lifestyle with a mix of investment income and focused work, instead of chasing a massive retirement nest egg.

Tip #5: Seasonal Schedules Unlock Creativity "The months you're on, you're on. And then you take extended time off to think bigger." By designing seasonal work rhythms, Brian carves out summers in Wisconsin for family, recreation, and reflection. These breaks recharge him and create space for new ideas.

Tip #6: Leverage Assistants to Protect Your Time "Everyone should have an assistant—at least for email and scheduling." Delegation, even for solo entrepreneurs, is key to freeing time for higher-value activities. Brian stresses the importance of offloading tasks that drain energy and time.

Tip #7: Model Your Numbers to Build Confidence

"I built the Time Freedom Calculator to show people they may only need $120K a year not $300K to live their dream life."

Many people overestimate what's required to break free. Brian's calculator helps individuals see what's possible sooner and with less stress.

Tip #8: Use Familiar Skills to Transition into Entrepreneurship

"It doesn't have to be innovative just take what you did in corporate and make it your own."

Rather than reinventing the wheel, Brian advises leveraging existing skills to create flexible, profitable businesses.

Tip #9: Time Freedom Leads to Outward Impact

"Once you achieve time freedom, you can turn outward connecting, giving, and serving."

Brian reflects that time freedom isn't just about personal benefit. It creates space to build character, serve others, and live a life of greater purpose.
