    About this Episode

    We all have our various procedures we follow with our properties, which together are referred to as our system. But did you know there is a larger system that can be used not just with your properties, but with your entire business? That’s what we are talking about today on Flipping America.

    The Entrepreneurial Operating System is a set of common-sense, field-tested, proven principles that govern the planning and implementation of a business. It makes things run more smoothly, the company grows, profits go up, and life is good. Very few people have a natural ability to manage a company this well instinctively and when they do, guess what? They are instinctively using the principles codified in the EOS. This system is not just the latest business fad theory. It’s a practical approach gleaned from observations over many years of some of the most successful and effective businesses on earth. 

    Brian Sulka is a Professional EOS Consultant. He recently did a webinar for the Flipping America REIA that we called a Deep Dive into EOS. I’m going to play some of that webinar for you today. If you want the entire presentation, go to flippingamericareia.com for more details.

    Questions from Listeners:

    • Altomar, Boulder, CO, “Prices are crazy here anywhere near the campus. What would you suggest to people with a bit of money but not enough to do a 600k loan?” 
    • Lamar, Atlanta, GA “The house across the street from my current project is vacant and the owners stay just about a 3 minute drive from where I live. I’m pretty sure they inherited it. I thought about knocking on their door the other day, but I don’t know what I would say. How would you try to buy it?”

    Motivational Quote:

    “The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it.” – Theodore Roosevelt

    Flipping America 620, Invest in Industrial with Jonathan Hayek
    Have you ever driven through a business park with street after street of rather non-descript buildings holding all sorts of businesses and wondered, “who owns this real estate?” Today you’re going to meet the man who does. Well - he doesn’t own them all, but he makes his living owning some of them. The cool thing is - you could be doing this too. Today we will talk about how. While working as a public school teacher, Jonathan began investing in real estate with only a few dollars. Through grit and creative strategies, he flipped single family homes to build a portfolio of small multifamily properties. Now using real estate to fuel his lifestyle of family time and playing in the mountains, Jonathan now invests in larger commercial assets, preferring triple net industrial properties. He enjoys inspiring others, speaking about the freedom that real estate can provide, traveling, and ultra running.

    Flipping America 619, Slow Flips with Scott Jelinek
    In the end it’s all about cash flow. Flipping is a business that requires your time and presence. Landlording comes with its own set of challenges. How about something that provides cash flow from real estate, but is truly mailbox money? Since 2019 I have been buying super inexpensive houses that need a little work and selling them as-is with seller financing. I’m talking about buying for around $10,000 and selling for $40,000. This model was the rationale for forming the Flipping America Buyers Club. By 2022, with no bank foreclosures for 2 years due to the pandemic, inventory was running low and prices were going up, so it was time to re-think the process. Due to the short pay-back schedule on the previous model, the numbers just didn’t work any longer. So I began to look at the alternatives. The idea is fairly simple. If I can buy a house at a substantial discount and sell it with financing for close to a retail price with seller financing, my actual return will be higher than the interest rate I’m charging. For example. Let’s say you buy a house for $30,000. If you were to sell it for $30,000 and charge 9% interest, your return would be…9%. What if you sold it for $50,000? Your return on that $30,000 investment goes up to around 15%. So I tried a few of these and guess what? It works! And there are buyers out there. Then I found a guy who has been doing this for years - he has even written a book on the subject. His name is Scott Jelinek and today we are going to talk about this fantastic way to make income in real estate.

    Flipping America 617 100% Flip Funding
    I did my first 500 flips without using a penny of my own money. Today our guest is offering to do the same for you. From day one in my real estate career, I had someone else putting up the capital while I did all the work. We split the profit 50/50. This worked great for both sides and the method still works today. It requires the right kind of match because you will be partners in the project, but this one factor could help many of you jump start your career. Adam Zach is joining us in a few moments to talk about how he wants to help you fund your next fix and flip.

    The doctors said he would never walk again - probably not be able to feed himself or even talk. And that is if he ever came out of a coma. My friend and fellow real estate investor Chris Prefontaine and his wife lived through this nightmare with their then 14 year old son Nick. I’m happy to report that Nick made a full recovery that is nothing short of miraculous. Fully recovered he embarked on a career as a real estate agent and a few years down the road joined his Dad’s company. Nick is joining us in a few minutes to share his incredible story.
