S4 Ep 171171 - Badass Interview with Jerry Green
The Closer We have Jerry Green in the house showing us how to make more green! Jerry is one of the best in the business when it comes to sales. This episode will make you rethink everything you were taught about sales including misleading with enthusiasm. Jerry discusses how a proven sales process produces predictable results by working smarter, not harder. He also discusses that if you treat your real estate investing like a true business, it will in return, treat you as a true business owner. One of Jen's biggest takeaways is how to master the art of price anchoring. This episode is LOADED with nuggets...go on now...hit play! Jerry started in the REI Business in 1994 after going through a bankruptcy in Springfield Ohio. He began by wholesaling properties, and then merged into Fix and Flips. Since that time he has been involved with doing over 3,000 deals including fix and flips of single and multifamily rentals, and commercial properties. He soon realized there was a big difference from just being in REI and actually running a real business. So after multiple failures, millions of dollars in mistakes, and through personal tragedy, he was able to build a true, scalable, REI Business. Now he works as the CEO of his REI Business, but is operationally removed from the business as whole. He does a high volume of wholesale deals, which are all done virtually. Jerry now spends his time helping others learn the REI Business. He teaches them how to build and scale their businesses and shows them how to master their Acquisition skills with trainings and the REI Sales Academy. He offers in person and live events year round.

S4 Ep 161161 - Badass Interview with Tom Zeeb
Back in 2001 Tom was broke as a joke. A near-death experience while whitewater rafting pushed him to find a new way to break free of his 9-to-5 job. His first "deal" almost took him under as well, but real estate investing saved him in the end. Both personally and financially. Hundreds of deals later, he is happy to share the same negotiation, marketing and business techniques that set him free, so you can do the same. Simple, structured, and step-by-step. Techniques that take you from spinning your wheels to doing profitable deals. Investors of all levels struggle with their businesses. Newbies want to get started, but often keep hitting the wall of confusion and spinning their wheels. Intermediate and advanced investors often find that they made a wrong turn and built a business they aren't actually happy with, but don't know how to fix and re-engineer it. Tom works with real estate investors of all levels to get their business built (or re-built) correctly, so that their personal goals and lifestyle stays at the center of everything they do, giving them more money, more time and more freedom to spend as they please. It is amazing what a few tweaks to the core elements of your business can do for you. Tom teaches investors how to identify and implement those core elements. https://tomzeeb.com/trifectahttps://tomzeeb.com/dealflow Social Media Links: https://www.facebook.com/TomZeeb https://www.youtube.com/TractionRealEstateMentors https://www.instagram.com/tomzeebtraction https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomaszeeb https://twitter.com/tomzeeb Website: https://tomzeeb.com To learn more about Jen Josey, visit www.TheRealJenJosey.com To join REIGN, visit www.REIGNmastermind.com To join HomeSchooled by Tarek, visit https://go.homeschooled.co/schedule-strategy-session?el=jenjosey

S4 Ep 160160 - Past Project with Maria Acosta
Successful Subject To We have Badass, Maria Acosta back on the show to discuss one of her Subject To deals. A successful Subject To deal has many moving parts and Maria breaks it down from start to finish! She goes into detail on what would make the perfect situation for a Subject To, how to protect yourself from a possible due on sale clause, and the use of a Land Trust. If you know someone that is facing foreclosure, Subject To may be the best solution for you AND the seller! Maria Acosta is a full time Real Estate Investor in the DFW area and she fix and flips houses all over north texas. In addition to flipping houses , she has built a rental portfolio of over 20 units across the states of TX, OH and MI. Maria was born in the Dominican Republic and came to the United States with her family when she was just 4 years old. She lived in Cleveland, OH for 1 year before her family decided to move to NY. Maria came from very humble beginnings and as a kid, her parents both worked at McDonalds to put food on the table, her father would sell clothes out of the trunk of his car and she and her younger brother would go and clean houses and doctor offices with their mom during nights and weekends. Growing up, Maria was always told that she needed to go to school, get good grades, so she could get a good job. Maria graduated High School and she went to Bryant University in RI where she studied Accounting and Finance and later got her masters degree in Financial Planning from Bentley University in MA. After school, she got a job and was hired by a financial services company in July of 2010 and she started taking inbound calls talking to Financial advisors about mutual funds. After a few years of inbound calls, she transitioned to doing outbound calls and had her own territory that she covered. She had made it! She had finished school and got that good job that she was always told to get but she wanted more. After watching numerous shows and seasons of various flipping shows on HGTV, Maria became infatuated with Real Estate and wanted to learn how she could fix and flip houses. She had one of her favorite show hosts that was going to be putting on a free seminar in the DFW area on flipping houses so she attended the seminar. The free seminar turned into a second session and then a 3 rd session where she ended up investing over $40,000 into her Real Estate education. She completed the program in October of 2014 and after charging all of these fees on credit cards, she pushed herself to get her first flip and bought her first house in February of 2015 where she went on to sell it and made over $15,000. Since 2015, she has completed over 40 Real Estate transactions including fix and flips, rentals and wholesales – all part time around her full time job. Maria went on to quit her full time job on November 24 th of 2021 and has been doing Real Estate full time ever since. Maria and her team are dedicated to helping homeowners that are in distress and helping to bring them solutions. They work with homeowners in various situations such as those wanting to sell due to dealing with problem tenants, unwanted inherited properties, properties where homeowners can no longer afford to pay the taxes, keep up with the maintenance, those looking to downsize, those that are relocating and need to sell quickly and one of the biggest areas they help homeowners facing foreclosure. They will assist them in explaining the options their lenders don't want to take the time to explain in how they can save their homes from auction or if they are looking to sell before their auction date, they are prepared to move quickly and help with that route as well. Maria loves talking Real Estate and loves helping others. Since Maria graduated college, she's been donating every year to her High School's Academy of Finance program where funds are raised annually to give the graduating seniors scholarships for college. In the program, students learn the basics of managing their money and more advanced accounting and finance strategies. This is where Maria gained her love for numbers and finance. She is eternally grateful for everything this program has taught her and she wishes nothing more than for all students to learn the basics of managing their money so less people would be put in difficult financial situations because they didn't know how to manage their money. In her spare time, Maria loves playing basketball and shes played rugby since 06'. She is a very competitive person and always gives her heart to everything she does. Maria's parents are still living in New York and her 2 younger brothers both live in Orlando, FL. https://www.themariaacosta.com/rea-program To learn more about Jen Josey, visit www.TheRealJenJosey.com To join REIGN, visit www.REIGNmastermind.com To join HomeSchooled by Tarek, visit https://go.homeschooled.co/schedule-strategy-session?el=jenjosey

She is a single mom, adjusting gracefully from a recent divorce, lives in an area of the US where hard money lenders are basically non-existent, had her gall bladder removed, living in one of her flips during renovation, and suffered a concussion all while running a fair and honest business. Did I mention she also got her general contractor's license during all of this?? Devon is sharing her first flip that she found with zero marketing dollars, funded by her fantasy football friends, and that fell out of contract two times before settling on the perfect buyer. This episode is longer than most but full of laughs and oozing with inspiration for any of you out there feeling stuck. You don't want to miss it! Devon's words: I started my real estate journey back in 2021 when I was a high school teacher in Washington State. It was during the middle of the pandemic and I was teaching first virtually, then with half the kids in the classroom and half on zoom, then all of the kids with masks, and I was ready for something different. My now ex-husband and I had wanted to buy rentals for a while, so I started learning as much as I could about real estate investing. I got hooked. However, I have ADHD, so everything looked amazing and I knew I needed a mentor to help guide me. My son and I watched Flip or Flop a lot, and a Facebook ad for Homeschooled by Tarek popped up, and my son told me I had attend the session. I have been in that program since July of 2021. The next month, we moved back to our home state of South Dakota, and I have since done 7 investment transactions, all profitable!

I am a single mom of 2 beautiful kids, Teagan (5 on Monday) and Archer (9). And we adopted a cat named Duncan.

In Heather's words: I started my real estate career back at the end of 2020 after taking the last few years off work to be a stay-at-home mom for my oldest two children.

S3 Ep 147147 - Badass Interview with Drew Breneman
19-Year-Old Buying Investment Properties From his first two investment properties at the age of 19 and driving his moped on a 90-second HGTV feature, it's safe to say Drew Breneman has come a long way! Listen in as Jen and Drew geek out over some multi-family investing nuggets, mainly why focusing on newer, better-quality properties is a much more innovative way to grow an investment business! A natural-born entrepreneur, Drew started his first business at 14. He then launched a highly-successful internet business while in high school. His ambition for finding the best investment vehicle for his earnings from his internet business is what led him to real estate, purchasing his first two rental properties at 19 years old. His drive attracted the attention of HGTV, where Drew was featured as an up-and-coming real estate investor. He wanted to share what he had learned and aspired to provide direct real estate ownership opportunities to others. Drew earned his BBA in Real Estate & Urban Land Economics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Wisconsin School of Business — one of the top real estate programs in the nation. Upon graduation, he worked for three national real estate development firms, each of which focused on different product types, affording him a broad knowledge base for the office, retail, market-rate multifamily, and affordable multifamily sectors. In 2005, he founded Breneman Capital (formerly Rise Invest) and co-founded The Blackhawk Investment Group in 2008, and Dwelle, a Chicago focused real estate investment and property management group, in 2019. Drew has honed an ability to foresee trends and identify favorable opportunities, resulting in asymmetric returns relative to risk. This foresight is precisely why Breneman Capital has tailored its investment approach to be specific to multifamily. The multifamily sector may be the most competitive of the entire real estate asset class, necessitating advancements in information, technology, and as an organization as a whole. As such, Drew has invested significantly in his team and the resources at their disposal in order to challenge the status quo of traditional real estate investment management. His work ethic and love of learning comes from his parents, who were both public school teachers. They instilled the desire to challenge himself, overcome obstacles, and grow from the process. Today, he watches his son William grow, laugh, and learn. Parenting has given him a new perspective for building wealth that can be passed down generationally. Creating a strong financial future is something he does well for his investors because he can see the value of building a strong foundation and future for his own family. https://www.breneman.com/ https://linktr.ee/drewbreneman To learn more about Jen Josey, visit www.TheRealJenJosey.com To join REIGN, visit www.REIGNmastermind.com To join HomeSchooled by Tarek, visit https://go.homeschooled.co/schedule-strategy-session?el=jenjosey
