This is the last episode of 2023! Thank you to all our listeners this year!

This episode is brought to you from Hamilton Ontario, where the forecast is foggy, dreary and bleak. Just like Canada's economic forecast! To turn things around we need people to tough out harsh weather, not see the sun for weeks on end, and  commute in bumper-to-bumper traffic. All with the possibility of not being able to afford a home. Where can we find such people? 

Well, leave it to the experts! Canada is now accepting hundreds of thousands of immigrants and non-permanent residents every few months. Unfortunately, our housing supply is struggling to keep up. Where are all these people going to live??

Stayed tuned to find out!

This world is a beautiful place, but many things are broken. One broken thing is our money. And although Mark and I can't fix our money on our own, we can certainly talk about it. So, join us as we imagine a world with perfectly sound money. A world where the government is not in control of the money. Where banks cannot lend more than they have. And where everything is as it should be.

One thing we have found that helps combat the broken money from our government is investing in hard assets like real estate. If you want to learn how real estate can work for you,

reach out on our website --> www.twostewards.ca

What happens when the government controls the money? 

Banks, hyperinflation, theft, insolvency, freezing accounts, unnecessary wars. What is it like to live through this stuff? 

This is a very serious topic. Thus, there will be no joking or laughing on this episode. We hope you understand

The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. But money itself is at the root of many things... What happens when that money is corrupted? Money has been corrupted many times throughout history, is now, and in this fallen world, always will be. 

In this episode, Brent and Mark discuss the most important characteristics of money. Then they go back in time to see what early civilizations used as money. They also discuss why these primitive moneys failed.

Seasons are changing. The weather is getting colder. Holiday season is just around the corner. Love is in the air. One thing Mark and Brent LOVE about this time of year is the Government of Canada's Fall Economic Statement!

In this episode, they break down the key points of this new update.

The "beginning of money" is an example of a topic that gets Brent and Mark so excited that they barely remember what they wanted to say. This happens more frequently than either would like to admit, but they just keep talking until somehow it all ties back together. If for some reason it doesn't all tie together, they just start the episode over and try again.

Although they may not be the more eloquent podcasters, they can certainly help you to steward your wealth through real estate. If you want to know how they can help you, reach out at www.twostewards.ca

What is a JOINT VENTURE?? That is where multiple parties invest in a property together, and then they live happily ever after. So pleasant and harmonious...

Well, it is actually not always pleasant and harmonious. There are many things to consider before getting into one! In this episode we share some tips on JVs from our own experiences!

So, whether you have limited funds and can't qualify for a deal by yourself, or you have funds but no time to do a deal... listen to see if a JV is right for you!

We would love to hear your feedback! Please send it in by visiting www.twostewards.ca

Mark and Brent take a quick minute to check in on the world. Turns out, there is a fair bit going on in the world and Mark likes to talk about it, so they it took longer than a minute. They touch on topics from INTEREST RATES, to JAPAN. 

Not sure what Japan has to do with anything? I guess you'll have to listen to find out!

Does looking at the news these days make you depressed? Anxious? Confused? Fearful? As Christians, we confess that nothing happened by chance, but only according to God's perfect design. It is helpful to reflect on that truth.

How do you structure a real estate deal? One way to structure a deal is the GPLP structure (General Partnership, Limited Partnership Structure). This structure is commonly used on larger scale deals with larger scale returns. These deals are limited to 'accredited investors' also known as 'rich people'.

You may be wondering why the rich are always getting the best opportunities. We would say that it comes down to financial literacy, appetite for risk, and long-term thinking. Which is funny because at the Two Stewards show, we talk about those topics all the time. So if you want to become an accredited investor one day, we suggest you keep listening.

Have you heard about these ADUs??! They are going to be something!

If you have no idea what an ADU is, go back and have a listen to the past two episodes. We began to discuss how ADUs can begin to start to try to help to alleviate a small part of a portion of some of the pressure we are feeling here in Southern Ontario. AND how they create cash-flow and extra returns on your investment property!

Remember, as an investor and asset owner, pressure on the housing market can be beneficial to you!
