  • Episode 62: NYC Firefighter and Nurse to RE Syndicator w/ Tim Lyons

    Join JD and Melissa with their guest, Tim Lyons, on the show today as they talk about getting into multifamily while working two full-time jobs! He's a NYC firefighter and nurse who turned into a real estate syndicator. Did we mention he's also a father of three? How in the world does that happen? Stay tuned!

    Here's what to expect on the podcast:

    • Growing up in a W2 mindset and eventually breaking out of it. Sometimes it's your family that brings you to that sudden realization. (Or, there's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"!)
    • The value of educating yourself as FAST as possible – Tim was listening to podcasts when he could!
    • The difference between doing real estate as a hobby versus taking it SERIOUSLY. Playing the pay-to-play game is worth it.
    • Surrounding yourself with an incredible team is the key to success in real estate. How do you build that network?
    • And much more!

    About Tim Lyons:

    Tim is a 15-year veteran of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) and currently serves as a lieutenant in the borough of Queens. Until recently, he also worked part-time as an emergency room RN at a level 1 trauma center. He brings years of real-world management and leadership experience to his real estate investment career.

    Tim's initial goal with real estate was to create passive income and in turn, be able to spend more time with his wife and three little girls. After partnering on a multifamily property, he saw first-hand the power of real estate investing as an opportunity to create passive income and build wealth for his family.

    He started Cityside Capital with the goal of not only growing his own portfolio but also to help others realize the power that real estate investing can have on creating passive income and building wealth.

    Cityside Capital has $45 million of assets under management including 335 multifamily units. Tim has also invested as a limited partner in 256 multifamily units in Texas and in a large retail super center in Tennessee.

    He graduated from Providence College in 2005 and can often be spotted in the crowd when the Friars play in Madison Square Garden in New York City.

  • Episode 61: Multifamily Syndication W/ Lisa Hylton

    Join JD and Melissa with their guest, Lisa Hylton, on the show today as they talk about multifamily syndications. She shares how she's a "product of real estate investing", how she left real estate (then returned to it eventually), and the strategies she implements on her business. Stay tuned!

    Here's what to expect on the podcast:

    • Not going for duplexes and turnkeys, then eventually discovering syndication.
    • "Start where you are and use what you have." What could this statement mean for people starting in real estate?
    • The benefits of going for recession-resistant asset classes.
    • Lisa's thorough method on identifying the right people to work with.
    • Embracing the fact that raising money at the start is challenging. You might want to start having conversations with the people around you and add value to them!
    • And much more!

    About Lisa Hylton:

    When I discovered passive real estate investing, it opened a door of opportunity I didn't even know existed.

    I'd been juggling the demands of a high-pressure career and investing in real estate on my own. I had no idea there was an easier way to invest, that didn't require all of my time and sole responsibility.

    Then, a colleague of mine introduce me to passive real estate investing. The light bulb went on. There was an easier way. This experience also helped me realize that so many of the opportunities we get in life come down to being in an environment that educates and inspires us.

    That's why I'm on a mission to empower people around the world to generate smart passive income through real estate investments.

    So you can get started sooner, achieve financial freedom faster and create the life you desire.

    About Michael and Suzy:

    Suzy and Michael are the Founders of Adventurous Real Estate Investors. They specialize in Return on Impact. Through real estate investing they create immeasurable impacts; in their family, with their friends, in their community, with the families (residents) they serve, in the spaces where they want to be generous.... everywhere and anywhere!

    Suzy and Michael are triathletes, outdoor and adventure enthusiasts, and avid travelers.

    Our adventure began at a TEDx event — the theme was Reset — and it changed our lives.

    We took the event to heart and used that theme — Reset — as a launching point to regain control of our lives, secure financial freedom, create a long-lasting impact, and discover our "why."

    Our "why" is to achieve financial freedom through real estate investing so we can serve others all over the world. We want to build schools in 3rd world countries. Education is extremely important to us and access to basic education in all societies is critical to individual and economic development and political stability. We want to create an impact where it is needed most. We want to share this journey with others by offering investment opportunities to our partners, and to give back by mentoring others along the way to help them pursue their life passions.

    Join our adventure and together we will help you create your impact in your world through real estate investing. This impact itself is different for all of us but we all share the same goal, we want to create those monumental impacts.

    Reset. Adventure on.
