Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from #82 that originally aired on Aug. 10, 2015.

This week we're going to be doing a follow-up interview with Commercial Real Estate Investment Expert and CCIM instructor, Jeremy Cyrier. Jeremy was one of our very first guest way back when we first started this show and I thought it would be awesome to bring him back on to get an update on his business and also cover a topic which I felt was very timely give our current market conditions.  Jeremy is going to share with us the step-by-step process of identifying the most promising real estate markets to invest in in order to find one that best meets your specific investment objectives.

Now remember, Jeremy is a CCIM instructor and a very successful broker and investor so what he’ll be teaching us today is the same curriculum that he teaches other elite industry players as well as practices himself within his own business. Today’s topic is one of those skills that we as an investor need to master if we want to truly succeed and thrive in this business.

Here’s a few things you’ll learn in our interview with Jeremy today:

• Why he's transitioning out of his multi-family investments and into the suburban office class.
• How to use free online tools that Jeremy shares with us to uncover strong US markets that might be ripe to invest in and also those that might be a little to overheated which means you should stay away
• The effects of urbanization and the opportunities it might present with income properties which are located in the suburban markets.
• What the difference of a financial driven and market driven property search is and which you should be using
• The step by step process that Jeremy uses to identify potential markets to invest in - this is the same process that is taught through the CCIM curriculum.
• How to use the free report offered by IRR.com to identify specific market data to assist you in choosing the  right markets to invest in.
• How to identify what part of the market cycle your target real estate market is in.
• And much more

Today's Flash Back Friday episode is from #78 that originally aired on July 13, 2015.

This week we're going to speaking with real estate expert, Phyllis Rockower. Now, Phyllis doesn't have an extensive background in multifamily or commercial real estate investing like most of our guests do, but what she does have is a ton of experience in starting up her own investment clubs, which is what we're going to be discussing in this week's show.

You see, there are hundreds, if not thousands of real estate investment clubs throughout the US, but the large majority of them are groups who tend to focus on single family investments which isn't going to benefit you if you are a multifamily or commercial real estate investor. Phyllis is going to discuss how she has successfully built two real estate investment clubs that collectively have over 1000 members and how you can do the same. 

Here’s a few things you’ll learn in our interview with Phyllis today:

• The benefit of surrounding yourself around like minded investors who have an interest in the same type of real estate that you do.
• How to leverage the existing REIA clubs in your area to market your new Multi-Family or commercial investment club to.
• Why she feels that creating a club solely for the intent of making a profit is the wrong idea.
• Why using meetup.com is the single best way to get your group launched and know by the masses.
• Why she suggests that you keep your group small, similar to a mastermind format
• How you might be able to leverage an existing clubs audience by creating a separate sub-group within the existing organization.
• How a group format can help you significantly increase your buying power by means of partnering
• Why you don't need to be a multifamily or commercial expert or have a track record to start your own club
• How to quickly grow your club by sending a targeted direct mail campaign to other local multifamily owners
• Why you shouldn't waste the time or energy on building a website or business plan prior to launching your group.
• Why you should create a legal waiver and have all members sign it releasing you as the organizer from liability.
• And much more

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #58 that originally aired on April 17, 2015.

Welcome to the Mobile Home Park Academy podcast. In this episode, Charles and I will discuss mistake number 13 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.”

 You can fix many things in a mobile home park, but the one thing you can’t fix is the size of your lots. There are many parks that were built many, many years ago when mobile homes were routinely 40-50’ in length with lots designed with that size of home in mind. The problem is that most newer post-HUD era homes are much larger (60’, 70’, and even 80’+ in length) and would never fit onto those smaller lots and there aren’t many options to purchase smaller homes should you need to replace on of these smaller 40 to 50’ homes.

 It’s imperative that you understand what your backup plan is should you ever lose a home and need to reoccupy that empty lot. A lost home equals lost revenues and if that lot can never again be occupied due to it’s size then you might find yourself in a situation where you have a shrinking park on your hands. Know your options…

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #56 that originally aired on March 28, 2017.

Charles and I discuss mistake number 11 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.”

 This is a very easy step that is sometimes overlooked by investors entering into this industry. You need to check to see if the park you intend to buy is legally allowed to be there. This may seem like a weird thing to be worried about, but the truth is that there are parks out there that don’t have permits or are permitted for fewer spaces than they currently operate with.

 Essentially, there are three types of parks: Legal, grandfathered, and illegal. You need to know what each means and who to ask about this prior to ever considering this type of investment. In addition, you also need to know how to find out how many spaces the park is allowed to have and you need to know if there are any outstanding violations. This is not a difficult step, but it is one that is essential to confident investing.
