Foreward How Real Estate Investing Has Changed Our Lives Thank you for picking up this copy of No Sweat Real Estate Investing. We hope that through reading this book you will gain a better understanding of how to create profitable investments in real estate to further your financial goals. Our personal journey with real estate investing began when Leslie was just a child. Growing up, her father, Bob Phillipo, was a contractor. He would buy properties, spend two or three years renovating them, and sell them for a profit. Leslie learned from an early age that real estate was the best way to not only pay off your own mortgage but also a great way to build profit. In retrospect, it is surprising that we did not invest in real estate from the get-go. We both instead bought into Registered Retirement Savings Plans. This is where our frustration with mutual funds began. When Leslie first started contributing to her RRSP, she didn‘t have money for a house. She worked in social services, which in Ontario does not pay well. So, she instead started with a small contribution to an RRSP through her pension at work. Jamie had a friend at an insurance agency that pushed him to get an RRSP as well. Once we started living together in 2010, we were both getting our RRSP S statements every 3 months. Every time we received the statements we would look through them and feel defeated. It got to the point where we had both individually paid into those accounts for 15 years and had nothing to show for it. Often times we were opening statements containing negative numbers. We even tried bumping Jamie‘s RRSP contributions higher to jumpstart our retirement savings, but that didn‘t help either. Jamie had been living in a rundown bachelor pad when we met, and once Leslie moved in we decided to fix it up. We turned the bachelor house into a family home. Leslie‘s mom and dad both helped with the whole process. We did extensive renovations and we built on a shop on the property where Jamie started to do his mechanics on the side at home. We decided to sell the property once we realized that the house wasn‘t zoned properly to run Jamie‘s mechanics shop. Around 3 months after Jamie started the business, the county came knocking and said that we couldn‘t have the business in a residentially zoned area. We lived in that house while it was completely renovated for about a year before we sold it in 2014. We made about $80,000 profit from that house. Jamie had bought the property for $184,000 in 2007 and we sold it for $385,000 in 2014 (we put about $100,000 into the renovations). Selling that house was when the light bulb went off for us. We really started thinking into the future about retirement. Leslie had always wanted to own real estate, and now after making such a large profit on our first house, we realized it was possible. We started searching for our next house. We printed off a county zoning map because we didn‘t want our son Aaron to have to change schools. There were only 4 properties in the whole county that had a house and zoning for a commercial shop, and 2 were current operating shops. The house we ended up finding wasn‘t for sale. We knew a friend who knew the owner and asked if he wanted to sell. He was 73 and lived there his whole life. He wanted to interview us before he sold it to us and thankfully decided to sell it to us. We first took the plunge into acquiring an income property after we decided to sell our first house and acquired our second house. This second house required a lot of renovation work as well. We had to take the house down to the studs. We actually hooked half of the house up to our truck and drove away with it before putting on a big addition. We had a realtor come in when it was still in pretty rough shape and give us an estimate on it. We had already forced equity on it by at least 100 thousand in a matter of 2 years. That‘s when Jamie got more on board with the whole idea of using real estate as our main mode of investing for retirement. We were watching a lot of income property shows at the time and thinking ―we could do this.‖ We were motivated to buy our first revenue property after we did our first Keyspire training. We had noticed events on Facebook popping up for wealth tours. We found one in the building where Leslie worked and, after some consideration, decided to become members and send our future in a different direction. Within only a few months, we put in an offer on a house in Windsor. The offer was accepted but the inspection was not good. So we looked for another one to put in an offer for. Leslie found the house we actually ended up buying. We fixed that one up, refinanced it, and took out all of our initial investment money. We found our next revenue property, a duplex. We messaged our realtor while they were signing papers to list the property and we said we wanted to be the first people in to see it. The next night we gave them an offer and they accepted within an hour. We ended up acquiring that property for just three thousand dollars out of pocket, because the refinance from the first property covered the rest. We have attained so many personal benefits from taking this journey. We feel a lot more stable and secure about our future. We feel confident for the first time in our ability to retire. We are financially much closer to retirement than we ever could have been relying purely on RRSPs. Real estate investment has also become a family business for us. Aaron, our 12 year old son, helps with the renovations and has taken an interest in investing in mortgages. It makes us feel more confident in his future too. He asks a lot of questions and is so interested in the money we can make from rental properties. Our main goal at this point is to retire early and retire comfortably. In the future, we dream of being ‗snowbirds‘ and spending the winters where it is hot all year long. We want to live where there is a warm ocean that we can put our feet in. We have finally been able to put a 10-15 year plan in place to make this happen. In order to do this, we are growing our real estate portfolio significantly, and this means that we are working with investor partners. Investor partners are people who would like to enjoy all of the benefits and profits of revenue properties, but not have to deal with the hassles of tenants and toilets. We do all the work, our investor partners put up the money, and together we share in the profits generated. It‘s all about creating win-win deals that everyone benefits from. Thanks again for picking up this book. We hope you will find it informative, helpful, and motivating to kickstart your future of real estate investing! When you are ready to talk, please reach out. We‘d love to show you exactly what it is we do, and how we can work together to get you an above average return on your money – backed by a solid asset… revenue property!

  • Leadership Principles for Today's Residential Real Estate Brokers1
    HR029 Leadership Principles for Today’s Residential Real Estate Brokers1 Derek Farnsworth, Jennifer L. Clark, Aarambh Shah, and Allen F. Wysocki2 Introduction The US residential real estate industry can be a tumultuous market. It is not always possible to list properties on the multiple listing service (MLS) and have multiple bids above the full listing price. Brokers may face challenges making their customary listing commission from the sales price of a home. Properties can lose their equity or go “upside down” (i.e., the mortgage balance is greater than the market value of the home). Thus, with no equity, homes cannot sell and brokers cannot make commissions. Despite these potential issues, there are opportunities for real estate brokers willing to implement the leadership principles based on the residential real estate brokerage Credits: Creatas/Thinkstock.com business model discussed herein. This includes implement- ing the vision-influence-passion (VIP) framework, creating Real Estate Industry a niche-based business focused on listing and selling REO According to the dictionary of real estate terms, a real estate properties (real estate owned by a bank or lender), creat- brokerage is defined as “the business of being a broker, ing a large value network, and implementing leadership which is a state-licensed agent who, for a fee, acts for principles to empower listing agents. property owners in real estate transactions within the scope of the law” (Friedman, Harris, and Linderman 2008). In ad- dition, according to the IBIS World Industry Report (2009), the business of residential real estate sales and brokerage is classified in the United States under NAICS Code 53121, which consists of operators acting as agents or brokers who sell, purchase, and lease real estate for others.

Great fortunes and enterprises have been created by real estate entrepreneurs who started as investors, brokers, property managers, contractors, inventors, and even programmers. While investment management has become more institutionalized, there remain strong opportunities for individual investors to find deals and projects that fly below the radar screen of larger institutions. At the same time, real estate technology companies are threatening traditional business models in real estate services (brokerage and modeling), property management (energy efficiency and tenant services), capital markets (crowdfunding and financing), and, of course, ownership and leasing (AirBNB and WeWork). Some real estate owners and managers have responded to technological innovations not just by becoming early adopters, but also by creating their own venture capital arms to invest in the firms

THE IMPACT OF THE CAPITAL MARKETS ON REAL ESTATE LAW AND PRACTICE MICHAEL H. SCHILL* Over the past twenty years, the real estate markets of the United States have been swept by enormous change. A sector of the economy that had long been resistant to change, real estate has been and is continuing to be transformed by the process of securi- tization on both the debt and equity side. Just twenty years ago, the vast majority of single family residential mortgage loans were provided by local banks or savings and loan associations that held the debt in their portfolios until maturity or prepayment. Today, most single family mortgage debt is sold into the secondary mort- gage market and converted into securities. Ten years ago, mort- gage loans for commercial properties were largely originated and held by commercial banks, pension funds or insurance companies.

(“Kardan NV”) was incorporated in the Netherlands in 2003 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Kardan Israel Ltd. (“Kardan Israel”), which, at that time, was a public company whose shares were traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. (“The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange”). In July 2003, Kardan NV completed an alternative tender offer, under which it purchased the entire holdings of Kardan Israel from the shareholders of Kardan Israel, in consideration of an allocation of Kardan NV shares. The shares of Kardan NV were listed for trading on both the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and the Pan-European Securities Exchange in Amsterdam – NYSE Euronext Amsterdam.

THE INSTITUTIONAL LENDER AS A REAL ESTATE ENTREPRENEUR IN recent years there has been much talk about the activity of institu- tional investors in what are loosely called "joint ventures" in real estate. These investments may include single buildings or large developments located throughout the country. While in the past institutional investors traditionally restricted their real estate investments to fixed return mort- gages and sale leasebacks, with changing economic conditions their philos- ophy also changed, resulting in the joint venture phenomenon. Some of the problems accompanying this change are the subject of this article.
