Randy Lawrence is a serial entrepreneur with 24 years of experience as a real estate investor and business owner. Randy is a big believer in designing a life that you want. It’s so easy to get distracted from shiny object syndrome and to check out what your friends in the industry are doing to achieve their level of success. You might even want to emulate their methods too. But, everybody’s path is different, what works for them might not necessarily be the best fit for you. Have a vision for your life to achieve REAL personal success.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Randy started his real estate career in multifamily and then built out a very successful single-family business.
  • Randy shares a valuable lesson he learned in the very beginning of his career about always doing the right thing first.
  • Randy’s marketing results are great because he has set the intention to help people FIRST.
  • Randy and Alex both strongly believe in the positive benefits of tithe and ‘letting go’ of that 10%.
  • Why did Randy first get into multifamily instead of single-family property?
  • How can someone get started in multifamily properties? 
  • There’s more than one way to achieve success. Don’t compromise on who you are.
  • Ask yourself: What’s the best fit for you? What are your goals? Everyone is different. What works for your friends/business acquaintances might not always work for you.
  • Get clear on what it is that you ultimately want.
  • You should be saying no more often than you should be saying yes.
  • You’re going to get hit with so many obstacles along your way. And if you’re not determined, it’s going to get harder and hard not to derail.
  • How did Randy find this 84 multifamily unit and lock it up?
  • Partnering with others and creating a team effort is key to getting into multifamily. You can’t do it alone.
  • Check out Randy’s podcast and website! (Link in the show notes).

“If I want to flip this deal and I either want to push the price to the max or cut corners, that’s not going to be the best approach to getting massive success.”

“When we set the intention that we are going to try to help people, not just make as much money as we can, that really exploded things in a positive way.”

“You gotta be true to yourself in what you want to do and who you are.”

Do not underestimate your network! If you’re looking to find new deals, there are plenty of people out there who either know of a buyer, a seller, or a money lender. Just ask them! There are plenty of ways you can lock up deals under contract, but don’t forget to be consistent with your efforts and take an ‘octopus’ approach to your marketing.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • It’s crazy how quickly time flies! June is a great month to take time to reflect on your goals.
  • What are some different ways to generate more leads?
  • Direct-mail, bandit signs, outbound calling, door knocking, etc. They all work! What doesn’t work is you.
  • Don’t forget to network with your people!
  • Think about the title company you work with.
  • Remember: Most people are either buyers, sellers, renters, borrowers, or they know one of the above.
  • Create a spreadsheet of all the properties that don’t sell at an online auction.
  • Didn’t end up getting the contract with a seller? Ask them when their contract ends and circle back with them around that time.
  • You’ve gotta have an ‘octopus’ approach to your marketing.
  • With 215 episodes under the belt, feel free to use the search bar and find episodes that may be relevant to you and your business.

The real estate game is changing. You have to stand out from the crowd and not do what everybody else is doing. Targeting just on one or two marketing channels no longer works because the market is getting oversaturated. Alex shares some tips on today’s episode on how to take your lead generation strategy to the next level.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • The Flip Empire Show has over 100 5-star iTunes reviews! Thank you!
  • If you’re in a hot market, you have to do multichannel marketing, and you have to do it consistently.
  • You have to focus on two things: lead generation and lead conversion.
  • The barriers to entry to get into this business are pretty low and everybody and their mom aspire to flip real estate.
  • How can you jump out and stand above the competitors?
  • He who controls the leads controls the inventory and the market.
  • How can you increase your conversions without increasing your marketing costs?
  • Alex dropped around 20,000 postcards and got feedback from his team that the people who were calling were Spanish speakers only and actually didn’t understand what was on the postcard.
  • The days of focusing on one or two marketing channels are dead. You have to find multiple ways to touch a potential seller so you remain on the top of their mind.
  • Direct mail is a very competitive landscape right now. Alex has to send more mail in order to get the same reaches.
  • Another tip: Keep track of your data and analytics. Bad data can kill you and your marketing budget in an instant.
  • Chances are, your sellers are on more than one list.
  • Alex does a quick recap of what he talked about today. Take one or two of these tips and take action on it.

Dave Payerchin is the co-founding partner of Columbus Turnkey Houses. He’s been in this business since 2005 and started out as a buy-and-hold investor. On today’s show, he shares what you need to know before buying your first turnkey property. Don’t get suckered into buying from someone who is just a middleman finding properties on the MLS, you’re not going to get good cash returns!

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Dave shares a little bit about himself and his business.
  • Dave and his business partner started this business as landlords first (buy and hold), so they’ve become very familiar with landlord and tenant laws.
  • What is a turnkey property?
  • Who are Dave’s clients typically?
  • Key point: If you’re looking to buy a turnkey property, make sure you work with someone who has managed the rehab and tenant placement. Don’t work with middleman parties who just find deals from the MLS!
  • Dave explains the difference between A, B, and C class properties and why they matter for turnkey.
  • What property class makes sense to pursue in a case like this?
  • Never buy a property if it doesn’t come with an inspection report. Get a third party, licensed, inspection report!
  • Make sure you know who is managing your property. You want to keep your turnkey provider accountable.
