Despite being a voracious reader, I’ve found some books are just so good you need to slow down & re-read them more than once.

Here’s a list of my favorite books to re-read often, along with accompanying book notes w/ my personal highlights 👑

Merry Christmas ;)
(1) The Road Less Stupid, Keith Cunningham

You should buy all of these books and read them.

My notes will be different than your notes.

I’ve read each of these books a dozen times (some of them more) and each time something new stands out.

Enjoy 💪

💰 How to get great real estate deals for ‘free’ 💰

Our real estate firm produced a gross return of ~$300k last MONTH and is growing by 70-90 houses per quarter.

We started with just 1 deal, and in this thread I’ll show you how.
1/ A few basics up front....

Real estate is all about “equity.” Equity can be achieved two ways (1) purchased or (2) created. Getting your money down to $0 is all about utilizing strategy 2 and creating your own equity spreads..
2/ Single family VS Multi family are valued differently...

Single family is appraised (location, comps etc) and multi is valued like a business (net operating income X a multiple which is your cap rate).

I’ll stay in the single family lane here because they’re easier.

My companies pre-Covid operated at ~$1.5m/month at 20% margins.

Post-Covid they are running a cool ~$6.5m/month at 40% margins.

Three strategic changes stand out as I reflect this morning >>>
(1) HEDGE

Big investors do this on instinct... if a stock goes down, they need another stock to rise in equal proportion to protect (or 'hedge') the downside.

We started thinking this way, "What if everything breaks, how would we fix?" Then we fixed those things proactively.
(2) HIRE

Some of the best times for you to grow is when everyone else is retreating. When ppl are running AWAY, you create opportunity by running forward.

Zig VS Zag... as a heuristic, inverse the mainstream logic and you will win.

Ooooo I like these types of responses. The classic “hey look over there!!!” to discredit valid point being made..

Here are some other great ones to use:
“Nazis killed lots of people but your kid had to wear a mask? Sorry”
“Someone i knew died once but you had to stay socially distanced? Oh poor you...”

My path from zero to 100M (and the trajectory to 1B) 💰

Gather around I have a story to tell... I am the most transparent wealth builder in history and do not see you as competition but as a partners. We win together.

Here’s how I did it 👇
1- 2014 I made $14k at a church...

It was my dream for a long time but I knew it wasn’t what I was called to do long term. I transitioned to a real estate firm and I did property management for $28k/year. Learned on the job...
2- I read 10 books that year...

The Entrepreneurs Guide to Getting Your Shit Together, John Carlton
Getting Things Done, David Allen
The Happiness Advantage, Shawn Achor
The First 90 Days, Michael Watkins
Tested Advertising Methods, John Caples
The Dip, Seth Godin

I have 100+ messages about my recent real estate posts.

Ranging from how I got started to how I find deals to how I finance them 🏦 I don’t have time to answer all of them individually...

BUT —
Considering a small 1-day real estate investors event this summer.

✅ how to finance deals at ~5% or under (while still carrying 70% LTV)

✅ how to find your first few deals (and constraints to ensure you don’t lose money on them)
✅ an easy way to finance your first acquisition (wholesaling on some steroids, with a built in client source of cash buyers)

✅ etc etc

I’m CONSIDERING it, nothing locked yet... and it would cost money. Do this — if you’d come or would be interested, throw a comment below.

Last Friday I started my Twitter with about 100 followers.

Today I’m at 5,000 and increasing daily.

Although I’m not an expert (yet), I’ve been strategic for my first week and I think it’s repeatable, if you were to model 👇
🏆 Post seriously valuable sh*t

My 3rd of 4th tweet (can’t remember it was a week ago) was a breakdown of how I’ve created $100,000 per MONTH in real estate passive cashflow...

It’s the stuff you’d normally find in a $10k course - posted in a thread, for free.
🏆 Be a decent human

But for real... I’ve helped clients, friends, and colleagues for years now grow their businesses. A few of my past clients and friends are already Twitter pros — they like me because I’m not a self-absorbed hack and helped me get this off the ground.
