This week's Cash Flow Friday tip is regarding finding a sponsor for your commercial real estate deal. If you're brand new to the business and don't have a track record of owning larger commercial properties then it's quite common that in order for you to qualify for financing, you'll need to bring an experienced partner onto the team, one who has a strong track record in the asset type you're looking to acquire as well as a healthy financial statement; and this person would be referred to as a sponsor. I'll be sharing with you a few relatively simple methods you can use to secure a sponsor for your deal.

He achieved this by following a simple process of making just one cold call per day to different property owners within his target markets who owned buildings within the size parameters he wanted to acquire. Tune in to hear the exact system he used.

Our guest for this week's show is Commercial Real Estate and Parking Lot Expert, John Roy. In today's discussion with John, we're going to discuss the little known niche of parking lot investing. John is one of the foremost experts in the industry and spends time on both the investment side by personally owning parking lots as well as running a full service brokerage that solely specializes on parking lot sales. My time spent with John was very enlightening, as I knew little to nothing about the parking business prior to our call together. If you're like me, then you're always open to learning about new investment methods that can provide you diversification and long-term cash flow and wealth creation. Well, you're in luck because that's exactly what you're going to learn about in today's show. In this show with John you're going to learn: How John got his start in the parking lot business and how purchasing a few dilapidated homes near the Notre Dame football stadium has spawned into a full blown multi-million dollar business for him. What the air rights of a property are and why these can typically be much more valuable than keeping the parking lot as an ordinary income property. The step-by-step process of getting into parking lot investments. Why parking lots make for low maintenance investments in comparison to other commercial investments like apartments, office, retail, etc. The value-add components to look for when seeking out a parking lot investment. How to properly underwrite a parking lot investment when there are no financials available which is a quite common scenario when dealing with small-scale parking lot owners/operators. How automation is changing the parking lot industry and how these changes are having a positive impact on the industry as a whole. What type of financing is available on parking lots and how to obtain bank financing even when you're buying a parking lot that doesn't have accurate financial statements available. How to utilize out-of-the-box strategies to find opportunities, even in today's competitive environment.

In today’s show I’m going to discuss the benefits of using seller financing when buying or selling a property, but more importantly we’re going to discuss how to successfully educate and persuade the owner of a property to consider this type of sale. If you don’t know how to effectively communicate the benefits to a seller then it’s highly unlikely that an owner will consider holding financing for you during a sale.

Our guest for this week’s show is Real Estate Investment and Direct Marketing Expert, Eric Stark. Today’s discussion with Eric is an exciting one, and I say that because I wasn’t completely sure what to expect as I didn’t know too much about Eric prior to the call other than he was a very successful investor whose primary focus was residential properties, so I thought. And being that our show is primarily focused on Commercial I wasn’t sure exactly how our conversation would go, but boy am I glad we did the call together, because not only is Eric a brilliant businessman and marketer, but he also has a portfolio of multifamily and commercial properties which means he is the exact type of guest we look to bring on the show. I personally walked away from this interview with Eric with multiple golden nuggets which we’ll be immediately implementing into our business and I’m positive you’ll find the same value as I did, and then some. In this show with Eric you’re going to learn: How Eric got his start as a residential wholesaler back in 2008 during the financial crisis and how leveraged that down market to grow his real estate business at a very rapid rate. How he’s combatted a highly competitive marketplace by implementing an aggressive direct mail strategy, which has proven very successful in creating a steady stream of deal flow to his business. The reasons he recommends sending a highly personalized direct mail letter to a very small list versus a generic form letter to a massive list and how this one strategy has continued to bring incredible results for his business. How successfully negotiate and strike a deal with an owner who is not money motivated and whose property isn’t even for sale. What a “top 100 list” is and why Eric suggests every investor needs to create this list for themselves. The custom website tool that Eric includes on all of his mailers which offers free education to the property owners regarding the benefits of seller financing. He’ll share the url so you can check it out for yourself How he uses a pre-recorded message to warm up cold leads and also offer an easy way for property owners to get more information about Eric’s business without having to speak to a live person. The letter he sends to surrounding property owners once he’s purchased a property within the same neighborhood and how this one method alone has resulted in multiple additional acquisitions for Eric and his group. How Eric was able to turn a disgruntled property owner who was sick and tired of receiving his direct mail into a friendship that has brought him multiple investment opportunities, capital for deals, not to mention a mentor who had 50+ years of experience in the industry and who has become an invaluable resource to Eric and his team. Why Eric loves the Detroit market and the reasons he says that you should add it to your list of “cities to consider investing in”. The important role a mentor played in Eric’s overall success and why he feels that a good mentor is critical to your success in this business. The one Dr. Seuss book that Eric suggests will change your life and is one of the best business books he’s ever read.

Our guest for this week’s show is Commercial Real Estate Investment Expert, Peter Harris. In today’s show we’re going to be speaking with Peter about how he got his start as a Commercial Real Estate investor after leaving his full-time job as an engineer and how he was able to replace his full-time income in a short 4 years. Peter’s commercial asset of choice is multi-family apartments and so we’ll dive deep into why he prefers apartments and the processes and systems he’s used to build his portfolio of cash flowing rental properties. In this show with Peter you’re going to learn: How Peter transitioned from being an engineer into a full-time Real Estate investor and the reasons he chose commercial and not residential as his primary focus. The various creative financing methods that Peters uses when purchasing his commercial projects. How to determine seller motivations and how to best capitalize on them by creating win-win deal structures. When it makes sense to use a lease purchase agreement instead of actually purchasing the property today. What a WAR report is and how Peter uses this within his business. The process Peter goes through when seeking out a property management company for his multifamily properties. The one marketing method that is bringing Peter and his students a majority of his deals.

Our guest for this week’s show is Commercial Real Estate Investment Expert and CEO of New York City based Mascia Development, Mark Mascia In today’s show we’re going to be speaking with Mark about how he got his start in the Commercial Real Estate industry by working with some of the nations most reputable investment and development firms immediately following college and how in a very short number of years has parlayed that invaluable experience into running his own highly successful Investment firm. Mark and I have a candid conversation about the lessons he’s learned along the way, including the struggles he’s encountered as he’s traveled the path to building his multi-million dollar Real Estate portfolio. In this show with Mark you’re going to learn: The reasons he and his firm focus on asset types that are considered “out of the current property real estate cycle” even though it’s contrary to what the rest of the market is doing. Learn about the struggles that Mark and his team faced by opening their investment firm in 2008 right in the middle of one of our countries biggest financial meltdowns and how they were able to push through. Why Mark and his team ultimately decided to expand their reach outside of the Manhattan market and no longer limit themselves to geographical boundaries. What the formation of Mark’s original team at Mascia development comprised of in the beginning and how it’s changed over the years as they’ve grown. Learn about the Markets that Mark is actively working in today and why he and his team chose these particular markets. What his take is on the current real estate climate and what inning he feels we’re in with our current real estate cycle. The multiple different methods his firm uses to find opportunistic deals even in todays heated real estate climate. Why he feels that it’s best to work with banks you have a relationship with and have done deals with rather than shopping for banks solely by rate and terms. The reasons that Mark feels very strong about focusing on an actual business model and not a specific deal and what this means for you.
