Episode 43 with AJ Smith
"I think that financial freedom is very much suited to the individual. It's something that each person may define for themselves. But for me, I think it's that last one. Right? I had initially - I think in my brain like - it's the freedom to work for yourself, and I personally reached that level, you know, and I've enjoyed it. But, I think that as you go along in the journey, you also start to look for freedom to give back to the community, to lift up your friends and family, to do some of the other things that maybe you can't do if you're just kind of focused on base level survival for yourself and your family. And having the ability to do those things, I think is another another level, even above what we've talked about as well."Join me this week as I interview AJ Smith, the founder of Goldsmith Properties, LLC. AJ started his real estate journey a month out of college, analyzing over 700 deals before purchasing his first property. After a few years of working a W-2 while house hacking and flipping smaller multifamily spaces, he was ready to scale his portfolio and take on larger commercial real estate deals. With a focus on high-growth, landlord-friendly markets like Oklahoma City, Dallas, and Northwest Arkansas, AJ has successfully turned underperforming properties into profitable assets, including a recent project that increased rental income by over 50%. His skill in value-add strategies and his expertise in managing teams and systems have helped him build a diverse portfolio of multifamily and commercial properties. AJ’s passion for real estate and disciplined management continues to drive his success, providing solid returns for investors and positioning Goldsmith Properties as a leader in the market.
AJ and I discuss:
· His journey from accounting and store management to real estate
· Flipping houses: strategies and challenges
· Scaling his portfolio to larger commercial real estate deals
· The power of structuring partnerships
· Building systems and delegating responsibilities
· Market focus and in-house construction
· How strong systems and procedures can accelerate your business
· Asset management and investor relations
· Defining financial freedom and success

“Then when I moved to Tampa, I bought a four-unit building and I lived in one of the units. I renovated as many as I could, and then I moved into one. And that was the real game changer. An aha moment for me. And I mean, I had tried other things up to that point. I tried wholesaling; I hated that with a burning passion. I tried being a realtor and hated that even more than I hate wholesaling. So, props to any successful realtors out there. But buying that first four unit and accidentally sort of getting into house hacking was revolutionary for me because now that I no longer had a housing payment, I was actually getting paid to live where I was living.”
Join me this week as I interview Michael Wagman, the managing partner and co-founder of Nimble Capital Group. Michael began his real estate journey at the age of 25, flipping houses with no prior knowledge, all due to his love of the shows on HGTV. Having tried most strategies from wholesaling to house hacking to vacation rentals, he finally found his passion in multifamily and large syndication deals. Michael started with one flip that turned into 700 rental doors and 3 developments. Today, his company holds a portfolio of over $60 million.
Michael and I discuss:
· His love of HGTV that led to flipping houses
· The impact of house hacking to financial freedom
· His transition from flipping to multifamily investments and development
· Navigating the multifamily market post-pandemic
· Creative financing strategies
· Understanding development projects and deals
· Investor profiles and market sentiment
· Tax strategies and real estate investments

Episode 41 with Logan Hertz (Part 2)
"Most people, unfortunately, put the cart before the horse where they start investing before they start saving. Right. And part of the way that they are manipulated is the financial powers that be tell them that they're saving for retirement by putting money in a 401k. That's not a savings vehicle. That's an investing vehicle and you're giving up liquidity. Putting money into whole life insurance is building liquidity. It's a savings vehicle. Putting money into a savings account is a savings vehicle. Right? So you need to start with that foundation first. You start with the protection, the savings, then you can get into investing and then into speculating."Join me this week for the second half of my interview with Logan Hertz the Founder of Hazeltine, LLC. This week we focus on how to use the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) with velocity banking to make the most of your money. Logan spent over a decade as a business strategy consultant for C-Level Executives. While in the corporate space, he began to question the conventional strategies for building financial freedom and in his quest discovered dividend-paying whole life insurance. In 2020, he founded Hazeltine, LLC and became an Infinite Banking Specialist, setting out to help clients escape traditional banking to become their own bankers.

Episode 40 with Logan Hertz
“Yeah, your human life value. So, first of all, most people fully insure their houses. They fully insure their cars. They would never think of not doing such a thing, but they don't fully insure their lives. In fact, they don't even know what their human life value is, right? So when people ask, you know, they ask how much life insurance do I need? Well, that's the wrong question. Okay. Who's the expert at determining your human life value? It's not you.”

Episode 39 with Zander Kempf
“I've always wanted to be an entrepreneur. It's always been my goal, even since I was a little kid. I want to start businesses. I want to work for myself. I want to go find opportunity and monetize it. Back in high school, I was selling small knickknacks. I started a landscaping company and had about 10 guys working for me back then. Throughout college, I’d come up with a handful of different business ideas. None of them went anywhere, but I just always kept trying. So, when I was in the military, I finally saw real estate as that opportunity. It's like, this is something that I can just see an immense amount of power in, and you can leverage in so many different ways.”Join me this week as I interview Zander Kempf, the Founder and CEO of Clear Summit Investments.

Episode 38 with Sam Silverman
“You're investing with that person. And the biggest thing is - you know I think of this as the gut check, right? Like I manage my mom's full portfolio of her investments, and I know whatever shortcoming there may be in the future, that's a gap that I'll go fill. So, I think of it as, ‘What if my mom's money was with this person – would I sleep okay at night?’ It’s the first thing. Like numbers aside, returns aside, pro formas aside. You think of the gut check of, ‘Does this person make me feel comfortable? Do I trust them at a high level on a first conversation? Do I feel as though they are aligned to me ethically… morally? Are they going to do what they say they're going to do within reason?’”Join me as I interview Sam Silverman, the founder of Silverman Hold Co and the Fully Funded mastermind community. Sam started in sales and marketing before making the leap to real estate and passive investments. After realizing the limitations of single-family homes, he explored multifamily and syndications. Before going full-time and founding Silverman Capital in 2021, Sam raised an impressive $25 million in funds.

Episode 37 with James Lascara
“You do not need to be the one with all the right answers all the time, but you need to know where they are. You need to know where those people are. need to know how to find them. And you need to make sure you do a good job of understanding the risks that could be catastrophic. I like to give the fitness analogy, like if I'm going in and I'm doing something I've never done before, and I need a spotter on the bench. I'm doing a weight I've never done before, I may not need that spotter, but I want to make sure he's there so something really bad doesn't happen. I treat real estate the same way, right?”Join me as I interview James Lascara, the Founder & CEO of Poseidon 25 Developments, Lascara Real Estate, Trident Rental Group, and Lascara Capital. James has achieved incredible results with his team over only a few years.

“I want to provide good homes for people. I want to help build communities. I want to take away the eyesore in the community and make it nice. When people have somewhere nice to live, and I could speak from experience - when I was younger, I was really scrapping, man. I was renting rooms. I was doing whatever I could. And I know what it's like to go from living in these shitty places to - I live on the water now because of real estate And truly being dedicated and working hard and loving it makes it a lot easier to work. But yeah, I want to give people really good places to live. I want the first-time home buyer to have a center island and have people over make pizzas at the countertop.

Episode 35 with Jason Postill
“I always like to try to bring value to these, however I can. I mean, there's no real secret sauce, and that's what we were talking about before this. It's literally just doing what people don't want to do. Like, and I hate even saying stuff that's so cliche, but like the cold calling. And my father said that a long time ago, he was in a different type of sales, like commercial printing back in the day, but like one call can literally change your life. So, AI and all this fancy software we've, we've tried a lot, but it always comes down to literally a direct call straight to the owner, the decision maker.”

Episode 33 with Axel Ragnarsson
“I think fundamentally speaking, the greatest negotiating tool or leverage you can possibly have is an alternative. It's, ‘I don't need this deal.’ Not needing any one deal is your greatest negotiating power. And when you look at a lot of deals and you're offering on a lot of deals, when you have a good pipeline, you never become emotionally attached to that one deal. And that's frankly, where a lot of investors screw up is they just don't look at enough deals. And when they find one that's finally kind of working, they just become obsessed with it. And they just, next thing you know, they've overpaid, right? Or they bought the wrong deal or they compromised some other part of their criteria. It’s easy to negotiate when you're like, ‘Dude, I don't have to buy this from you.’”Join Glenn as he interviews Axel Ragnarsson, a leading multifamily real estate investor and the host of the Multifamily Wealth Podcast. Based in Boston, MA, he is the founder of Aligned Real Estate Partners, where he manages a portfolio of over 700 units and has been involved in transactions totaling more than $62 million.

He is also a founding partner of Blue Door Living, a property management company overseeing over 300 units in New Hampshire. Through his podcast, Axel provides valuable insights and practical advice on multifamily investing, making him a respected figure in the real estate community.

Episode 32 with Gary Covert
"I had an old customer talk to me and said that he was starting to acquire oil and gas wells and develop them. And would I be interested in talking about it. And it's like, “Is that a thing?” Because he was talking about it like flipping houses. I was like, “Really?” He said, “Yeah, that's a thing.” We partnered up. We got a couple of investors around a handful of wells and got our first assets going. And then after that, we made another acquisition for a lot more wells with a couple of family offices and a handful of high-net-worth investors. We've been in I guess we're going on four years now and it's been a really interesting learning curve for me.

Episode 31 with Tim Woodbridge
“So, me looking at that now I say, ‘Yeah, that's a sh*t deal.’ I'm glad that I didn't think of it like that. I'm glad I was excited. Because without doing that deal and figuring out how to do it, I wouldn't be where I am today. So anytime someone says, ‘That's a sh*t deal ,’or like, ‘Don't do that deal. That's a lot of headache.’ It's like, well, but don't discount the headache that you're going to have. I figured out how to do it because it was a headache, and I increased the value. I saw that there was potential.”Join Glenn as he interviews Tim Woodbridge, the co-founder of WC Investments.

“Unfortunately, just kind of speaking a hard reality is, I mean I've just recently had some good friends that are my age that have, you know, passed away. And I meet so many, so many people that, ‘Hey, when I get to this age, I'm going to retire and then I'm going to enjoy the time and travel and do all that.’ I'm like, why not do it now? Right. Like enjoy the time you have now. Don't wait. And fortunately for us, Glenn, real estate and this investing has given us an opportunity to be able to do that. Because I mean, really what we're doing is just trying to buy back our time.

Episode 28 with Kris Morin
“But fast forward, I never would have known that I would have gone on to buy hundreds of units of my own and then start this commercial private equity company that acquires hundreds of units across the US. And when you're doing these construction projects and rehabilitation projects at that scale, all of that experience managing multiple, you know, rehab projects in multiple markets across the US suddenly came into play and it was invaluable. And so I was probably able to avoid a lot of mistakes and make a lot more money than somebody who went and attended a mastermind. [Then] called themselves a syndicator the next day and tries to oversee a hundred unit rehab projects. Like you're bound to really make some mistakes there.”
Join Glenn as he interviews Kristopher Morin, co-founder of Three Peaks Capital, a company that focuses on providing investors access to institutional-grade real estate investments. Kris began his journey as a science teacher and quickly discovered he would never have the financial freedom he wanted on this career path. He then shifted to consulting, where he held leadership roles at top firms like Accenture, helping Fortune 500 companies develop competitive strategies and achieve operational efficiencies. Kris discovered real estate investment while working his W-2 job and never looked back. With over 12 years of experience, Kris is a sought-after investment educator, mentor, and coach for high-profile business professionals.

Episode 27 with Warren Dresner
“No, that's completely true. and there are, there are different types of coaches. There are coaches who can teach you how to invest in a specific class of real estate. There are coaches who focus more on mindset. There's a whole range that not all coaches are created equal. It can seem like a sales pitch and it can be expensive, but it is exactly like you say, it's about learning from other people's experience. And you can fast track a lot of your development that way. Like, no matter how good you are, how great you are, having perspective, someone sitting on the sidelines with a different perspective to you can really help to stop you from stumbling over things and just give you advice that maybe sometimes we're blinded to ourselves.”Join Glenn as he interviews Warren Dresner, the co-founder of Equity Yield Group, a company that helps investors access institutional-level multifamily investments. Warren has more than 20 years of experience in finance, insurance, and real estate in the USA, UK, and his native country, Australia. He is currently invested in over 2,000 units across the United States.

Episode 26 with Nate Dean
“But even when we are paying cash, we are giving up the interest that that money could have earned if it would have been in a better environment. So even when we're saving up to pay cash, we're losing out on the opportunity costs on those dollars. The other side of that is we're always making payments to someone. We're making payments to the bank when we're borrowing, but when we are saving up, either sporadically or systematically, we are making payments to ourselves for a future purchase. So, if you can take hold of those ideas and wrap your mind around this idea of, ‘I can be the borrower and the lender simultaneously,’ like that is a powerful process when I get to control both sides of those things.”Join Glenn as he interviews Nate Dean, the co-founder of Unlimited Life Concepts (ULC). ULC is a company that teaches individuals and businesses how to create private banking systems using the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC). After several years serving in youth and music ministry, and then as a pastor, Nate discovered the IBC and felt called to educate others on how they could also find financial freedom by becoming their own bankers.

Episode 25 with Randy Smith
“Like, that's a big deal that, you know, people save, for maybe two years for that $25,000. But if we can get that thing doubling every three to five years, and if you look at when they, maybe you do it every two years, or maybe every year you put another 25 grand in there, at some point when deals start going full cycle, you're creating this income that is essentially, it's just, it's tax advantaged income that you don't have to go to work for. And if you do get laid off from your job, like I got laid off from my jobs two times, it feels, you have a whole new freedom once your core expenses are covered in your household.”Join Glenn as he interviews Randy Smith, the founder of Impact Equity. Randy spent 25 years working in sales for Fortune 100 and 200 companies. While still working his corporate job, he began investing his extra capital in real estate and eventually shifted to passive investing through a syndication model.

He has helped over 100 investors find opportunities since 2022, with a goal to help 100 investors become millionaires before the end of 2030.

Episode 24 with Beau Wiltshire
“I've got more cash flowing through my life that I can capture because I'm already saving money. Like I'm not, you know, just Ferraris and gold watches. And even if you are, like put your money in here, bring it back out, and go buy your gold watch. And now it's gonna compound. Now you haven't lost that money. Now it's still your system. If you really want the watch and you were gonna save up and buy the watch anyway, take the policy loan, do it, put $500 a month, whatever you would pay for that watch or save up for that watch, just put it back in the system. It immediately becomes available again. You just have a bigger system that does it. And if you do kick the bucket a little early, you get to leave everybody a lot more money.”Join Glenn as he interviews Beau Wiltshire, a military man turned entrepreneur and the co-founder of Fortify Capital Group. In 2020, Beau purchased his first mobile home park with 44 spaces while learning about real estate and investments.
