January 11, 2023 WFN #065 – Grab a seat at the table…with Table Investments in OKC
From Memphis, TN to Austin, TX many real estate markets have REALLY gotten hot 🔥 in the last 5 years and the numbers may not make as much sense for investors.
But what if I told you there was an “under the radar” market that doesn’t get a lot of attention AND you can still get B class properties for around $100k AND cashflow at or near the 1% rule?
Let’s dive into OKC!
👉 Tip/Trivia – On April 22, 1889 the US government opened up a series of land runs for homesteaders to stake their claim. At the end of the day, 10,000 people had staked their claim on what would become OKC.

December 21, 2022 WFN #062 – Invest in a LITERAL Cash Machine AND pay $0 Taxes w/ Chris Odegard
What if you lost over HALF of your net worth? Would you be able to get that back and then 5X that in 9 years? My guest today had just that happen and shares his story.
One part of that story and HOW he amplified his net worth after such a devastating loss is through investing in ATMs. But aren’t ATM’s going away as we become a cashless society? Listen in and you may be surprised!
👉 Tip/Trivia – Every year over 10 BILLION transactions occur at ATMs in the US.

December 14, 2022 WFN #061 – Wagner Returns To Update Us On Florida AND How To Get INSTANT Equity With Your Next Investment!
What if after you listened to Wagner in November of 2021, you bought a turnkey rental from B2R Direct then? How would you be sitting now? Well, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say you could be sitting on a $100,000 EQUITY gain! The Florida market is on fire! 🔥
On top of that, you would be looking at a 22% increase in rent!
Now will that continue? Probably not, especially with the Fed raising rates BUT you can still get instant equity when you buy a new build from Wagner’s company who still averages 30-40 applicants PER UNIT for rent. And he ONLY sells to investors!
👉 Tip/Trivia – Actress Eva Mendes, singer Ariana Grande and inventor Thomas Edison were all born in Florida.

December 07, 2022 WFN #060 – Why can I invest HERE but not THERE? Mauricio simplifies syndications!
506C, 506B, Reg A, Reg D – what do all these terms mean? Why can I invest in some syndications but not others? Why can some advertise on every social media platform out there but others are FORBIDDEN to advertise?
Our guest today is Mauricio Rauld, founder and CEO of Premier Law Group and one of the nation’s leading real estate syndication attorneys. Whether you have questions on raising money, starting a fund or want to know what questions to ASK a syndicator, Mauricio is one of the few lawyers that actually speaks English!
👉 Tip/Trivia – The 506c exemption was created after the Financial Crisis in 2008, where syndicators could still advertise but were restricted on types of investors they could take on.

You’ve probably heard about the Memphis, Birmingham, Dayton, Orlando, and Dallas markets. But what about Houston, TX and Albuquerque, NM?

November 23, 2022 WFN #058 – Is the ‘1% rule’ DEAD? Marco Santarelli from Norada Real Estate gives his thoughts
Is the 1% rule dead?

Are you looking for an investment that yields 12-15%, pays monthly and you DON’T have to be accredited?

Finally, what if you need an option for mortgage financing outside of a traditional bank?

Our returning guest from episode 16, Marco Santarelli joins us again to answer all three of these questions and share his thoughts on the housing market going into 2023.

👉 Tip/Trivia – In 1983, the inflation calculation was changed from tracking mortgages and other housing costs to tracking ‘owners’ equivalent rent’ which made the measurement less volatile.

November 16, 2022 WFN #057 – Safely earn 10-12% on your money WITHOUT stock market volatility
Instead of going to the bank to get LENT money, why not BE a bank and LEND money?
That is the topic of today’s podcast with Howard Robbins of Ignite Funding. $1.3 billion in trust deeds have been funded since 1995 and Ignite has returned over $100 MILLION in steady, monthly interest payments to their investors.
You don’t have to an accredited investor. The minimum investment amount is only $10,000. AND your investment is SECURED by real estate.
👉 Tip/Trivia – Certain payments, like interest payments are taxed at your HIGHEST marginal tax rate. Invest in Trust Deeds in a tax-FREE Roth retirement account to pay ZERO in taxes!

November 09, 2022 WFN #056 – Spartan Invest of Birmingham, AL continues to grow investors’ wealth!
If you have followed me for any amount of time, Spartan Invest has been mentioned quite a bit. I also have been in Birmingham, AL about a half dozen times and is a primary market I invest in and plan to continue to invest in. I also have great respect for the team especially when Maureen called me directly to advise NOT to buy a property we were looking at.
Today however I brought on the CEO and co-founder of Spartan Invest Lindsay Davis where we talk about their current markets, what NEW markets they will be going in and the growth of their new construction vertical.
