From Property Manager to $1 Billion in Assets Under Management with Ken McElroy

From Property Manager to $1 Billion in Assets Under Management with Ken McElroy
Today’s guest is the author of . Along with by Robert Kiyosaki, Ken’s book inspired and motivated me to keep buying real estate. If you are new to the real estate space, Ken has an interesting and relatable story to share. He grew up in the Seattle area and while in high school and college knew that he wanted to become a real estate investor. “I started managing properties, and that’s where I learned kind of the inside look of how they run, and it was obviously the best education that I got.” - Ken McElroy Ken learned how to turn around properties, make them profitable, and manage expenses by filling properties up with good people that pay their rent. Once he experienced what worked and didn’t work, he started to buy and own properties. Early on, Ken had a competitive advantage by working for a property manager and getting a real estate license. “The license itself is not necessarily needed to do transactions, that’s very true. But the knowledge that you get from the information I think can really help.” - Ken McElroy Now, Ken is up to a billion dollars in assets, still looking to buy properties, and running his business while navigating changes due to COVID and communicating with tenants.

Wow, today’s interview is chalked full of so much valuable info! Ever look up to someone and wish you could chat with them for a few minutes? Well today’s a special episode for me because I get that chance! Today I interview long-time real estate investor and podcast host, Kevin Bupp. Kevin started his real estate investing career over 19 years ago in a small town of Pennsylvania. Through family connections Kevin met his soon to be mentor. He walked blindly into a fix and flip conference with his future mentor; from that conference on Kevin decided to fully immerse himself into real estate. We discuss the importance of actually liking real estate, when times are bad you have to believe in your love of it to carry you through the tough times. We discuss some pros and cons of mobile home park investing. One of the biggest pros is that cities are no longer building mobile home parks which causes a much higher demand than there is supply. These mobile parks also offer one of the cheapest rents you can find; having one of the most economical rents makes it very easy to keep rented during an economic downturn. START chasing your real estate goals! And remember, you don’t have to be great to START, but you have to START to be great!

Who Is Chad Duval, Landlord-Friendly States and "Cash for Keys"
There’s so many things to think about when you buy that first rental property. What happens if a tenant doesn’t pay? Who do I call if something breaks? How do I even get a loan? There’s so many! When it comes to figuring it out, I’m a huge believer in breaking it down into digestible chunks. In today’s episode we get into three important topics that I’ve learned, first hand, about evictions over the past 6 years in the business. Also, you know what’s funny? We’re seven episodes in to the show and I still haven’t even introduced myself, gave my background or even talked about why I started this show. Yeah, I’m still tying to figure out this whole podcast thing, so I try to get you guys up to speed on those things too.

Making $30k on His First Deal and Thoughts on Mentorships

Making $30k on His First Deal and Thoughts on Mentorships
On today's episode we have Jon Schoeller stop by. It's a great conversation about how he found his first mentor and also the details surrounding his first "wholetail" deal. Wholetailing a property is basically finding a property that's so far below market value that you can sell it at wholesale price, which then gives the buyer plenty of "meat on the bone" aka equity after they buy it. It's a pretty cool technique that anyone can do! Jon's Instagram: @jonshoeller Jon's YouTube: You can find the transcript of this episode . Transcripts of all episodes can be found .
