Breaking Through Limiting Beliefs and Acquiring 300mm in Multifamily - with Tim Lyons | AIJ193

Mon, 28 Mar 2022 00:00:00 -0600

Tim is a 16 year veteran of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) and currently serves as a lieutenant in the borough of Queens.

Until recently, he also worked part-time as an emergency room RN at a level 1 trauma center. He brings years of real-world management and leadership experience to his real estate investment career.

Tim’s initial goal with real estate was to create passive income and in turn, be able to spend more time with his wife and three little girls. After partnering on a multifamily property he saw first-hand the power of real estate investing as an opportunity to create passive income and build wealth for his family.

He started Cityside Capital with the goal of not only growing his own portfolio but also helping others realize the power that real estate investing can have on creating passive income and building wealth.

Cityside Capital has co-sponsored over $300 million of multifamily assets including over 2000 multifamily units.

Tim has also invested as a limited partner in 256 multifamily units in Texas and in a large retail supercenter in Tennessee.

The Power of Building Wealth IN and THROUGH real estate - with Matthew Teifke | TLS175

Wed, 09 Feb 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Matthew was raised in Round Rock, Texas where he loved playing sports and competing in anything imaginable with his younger brother. It was around the age of 13 that Matt saw his single mother start to invest in real estate and he was immediately drawn to the industry. At the age of 17 Matt became a licensed realtor and worked through college at Texas A&M Corpus Christi. He earned his degree but his mind was made up that real estate was the path for him. He went on to earn a Masters of Real Estate from Texas A&M in College Station and started a career in commercial real estate. In 2015, alongside his wife Lexi, Matt started TRE Homes Property Management and three short years later he left commercial real estate to grow his company full-time. In 2020, he merged his property management company with another industry leader. He then doubled down on growing his brokerage, Teifke Real Estate.

ABOUT OUR GUEST:

I am born and raised in St. Paul, MN. At the age of 18, I flew to France and lived there for one
year to study and work as a sommelier.

All throughout my twenties, I traveled the world making wine, studying wine, and filming wine
documentaries (In fact, if you go to YouTube and type in “South Africa Wine Documentary – The Pink Grape” you will be able to watch my wine documentary).

At the age of 28, while sitting on the couch, my younger brother approached me and asked if I
had ever heard of Michael Blank. My reply was no.

I signed up for Michaels Ultimate Guide Program and started listening to his podcasts. Once I
got educated, I immediately began looking for deals and underwriting them. A year and a half
later, a deal came across my desk and I underwrote it and it worked. I submitted the deal to the deal desk and it got accepted. A few months after that, we closed on the deal. 218 units was my first deal. Since then I have closed on my second deal and grown my network.

His biggest mistake

KEY QUOTES:

"Get after it! Be careful but take action!"

ABOUT OUR GUEST:

My name is Joshua Ferrari. I grew up not knowing anything about finances or investing. I always thought I was just going to work until I was 65, retire on a farm out in the country, and travel with my wife to see the world. I had no background in financial education and I seriously hated school. Yet, somehow the idea of investments caught my attention when I read that famous book titled “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki.

I have grown to have a passion like no other for multifamily real estate. My journey started 2 and a half years ago when I bought my first multifamily property which was a fourplex. My experience throughout that journey has given me the needed expertise in managing contractors, subcontractors, and materials for multi-unit rehabilitations.

I have been a licensed Aircraft Technician for the last 3 years. The job of an Aircraft Technician is fun, and it requires meticulous attention to detail for the safety of the flight crew. I have never had any aircraft required to be reworked due to unsatisfactory work. My attention to detail allows me to be the expert needed to run these types of assets.

I’m happily married to my wife, Alicia for three years. We have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Pecan who loves traveling, eating, & chewing fingers. I’m an active member in my local church where I serve as the drummer on the worship team, and I teach investing and finances to local entrepreneurs wanting to get started in the space.

About Our Guest:
Born & raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, I'm 26 years old and have been full time in real estate since the end of 2017. My dad always told me the best way to find out what you want to be, is what you don't want to be- I took that to heart and throughout High school, doing several different trade jobs including highway construction, general renovation work, and ran a landscaping company in Park City, UT for 4 years. I always knew there was a better way to do things & wanted to be self-employed for as long as I can remember, Like many, that small purple book (Rich Dad, Poor Dad), helped me shift my thinking and take the leap to get into real estate, knowing absolutely nobody in the industry. I did what most do, and got my residential real estate license, after a couple of months I knew I better find a kick-ass mentor or I would just become another failure statistic, I joined Mike Egan's team at KW SLC, Mike has been a top producer for over 10 years and sharing an office with him and riding his coattails for the better part of a year truly fast-tracked my success as an agent. Although I was always much more interested in investing, I knew I would have to have some capital to make that dream a reality, & the best way I could do that continued to sell homes and begin to flip some properties so I could begin to shift to what I had started to become fascinated with, multifamily properties. From there it kind of running but that is the quick and dirty to where I am now!

OUR SPONSOR:

Canovo Capital is a boutique multifamily investment group based in Orem, UT that works with clients, partners and investors to source, acquire and manage strategically targeted, multifamily assets. Our goal is to offer new and experienced investors a better way to maximize the returns on their hard-earned money through quality, recession-resilient, multifamily real estate.

ABOUT OUR GUEST:

Erik Oliver is the Business Development Manager at Cost Segregation Authority, LLC. Cost Segregation Authority is a national provider of cost segregation services. They assist building owners in maximizing the tax benefits available to them under current U.S. tax law. They also assist accountants and CPA firms in providing services to their clients who have constructed, bought, expanded, sold or remodeled depreciable real estate.

Cost Segregation Authority was first established in 2006 at the infancy of modern cost segregation services. It was founded in large part by a father and son team who had spent their career in the construction industry and became passionate about the tax-saving strategies associated with real estate investments. This family culture has stayed with us for over a decade and we endeavor to keep it this way for generations.

A key milestone in our growth was the separation from a CPA firm in 2015. Our practice does one thing only—cost segregation.

You will find most cost segregation firms are full-time CPA firms or offer a dozen other services to maintain their margins. At Cost Segregation Authority our focus is exactly as our name implies. Hence, if you are a CPA or other tax advisor, you don’t have to worry about losing any tax return or other consulting revenue when introducing us to your clients. Our goal is to make you look good by performing the most accurate and tax-saving study possible. We are the good news in your practice and your partnership is paramount to our success.
