- 4:44Speaker 3: I like the way this is gone.
- 4:46Speaker 5: Let's talk about something that we never spoke about before,
- 4:48Speaker 5: which is v a loans copy for veterans. There's a
- 4:53Speaker 5: lot of veterans that watch us. We actually have an
- 4:57Speaker 5: Infinity groupment Eyo University for veterans, whether it's Navy, h army, uh,
- 5:05Speaker 5: you name it, the whole situation. Right, A lot of
- 5:09Speaker 5: people have served the country and it's benefits with that.
- 5:14Speaker 5: But and even some alumni. Aristotle is a veteran. Yeah,
- 5:19Speaker 5: we got a few other veterans, but a lot of
- 5:22Speaker 5: times that they're not educated on what they actually have.
- 5:26Speaker 5: The credit credit credit.
- 5:28Speaker 3: Definitely, what's up with this VA loan situation. First of all,
- 5:32Speaker 3: thank you guys for your service. We appreciate your sacrifice
- 5:35Speaker 3: and everything you do for us in our country to
- 5:37Speaker 3: keep us safe here in America. So I don't want
- 5:41Speaker 3: that to My father is a veteran also, so it's
- 5:43Speaker 3: nandad in my heart. If you've been in my studio
- 5:45Speaker 3: or see me on my content, I have his flag.
- 5:48Speaker 3: When he passed away, they gave me the flag, so
- 5:50Speaker 3: I have that kind of like right next to me
- 5:52Speaker 3: when I shoot all my content. So, first of all,
- 5:55Speaker 3: shout out to all the veterans. But a VA loan
- 5:57Speaker 3: is one of probably the best loans that's available out
- 6:00Speaker 3: there in the marketplace. It's an underutilized product. I don't
- 6:04Speaker 3: think a lot of people speak about VA loans, and
- 6:06Speaker 3: that's why I'm happy that we're having this conversation. So
- 6:09Speaker 3: let's first start off with the credit score requirements. Most
- 6:13Speaker 3: lenders will have a minimum credit score of a five
- 6:16Speaker 3: to eighty to qualify for a VA loan. It's one
- 6:19Speaker 3: hundred percent financing no PMI. PMI is private mortgage insurance.
- 6:25Speaker 3: So typically when you put down less than twenty percent
- 6:28Speaker 3: down on a property, you have to pay the PMI,
- 6:31Speaker 3: which is insurance that's insuring the bank, not you, the
- 6:34Speaker 3: barwer in case you default on the mortgage, that that
- 6:38Speaker 3: loan is insured and the bank can basically get their
- 6:41Speaker 3: money back from the insurance company. Right. So, VA loans
- 6:44Speaker 3: have no PMI. It does have a fund and fee
- 6:48Speaker 3: when you do a VA loan, which can be on
- 6:51Speaker 3: average around two percent just depending on your status. If
- 6:55Speaker 3: you are one hundred percent disability then disabled veteran, then
- 7:00Speaker 3: you don't pay a fund and fee, But typically most
- 7:02Speaker 3: VA loans that we're doing come with around a two
- 7:04Speaker 3: percent fund and fee which gets financed into the loan. Now,
- 7:10Speaker 3: with a VA loan, you can purchase a primary residence.
- 7:14Speaker 3: It's not for investment properties. I just want to be
- 7:16Speaker 3: clear on that it's for primary residents. You can buy
- 7:19Speaker 3: condo VA approved. If you could buy condo that is
- 7:23Speaker 3: VA approved. You could buy one family, two family, three family,
- 7:26Speaker 3: four family properties. They have to be owner occupied multifamilies.
- 7:31Speaker 3: The requirement to for VA to live in the property
- 7:36Speaker 3: is for one year, just like an f h A,
- 7:38Speaker 3: so you have to live in that property for one year.
- 7:42Speaker 3: But the main thing, there's a couple of things I
- 7:43Speaker 3: want to discuss with a VA that's very important. Number
- 7:46Speaker 3: one is your certificate of eligibility your COOE. So to
- 7:52Speaker 3: determine how much of a loan that you can get
- 7:56Speaker 3: from a VA, you have to provide the lender or
- 7:59Speaker 3: the lender can pull what's called the COE, your certificate
- 8:03Speaker 3: or eligibility, and it will tell you exactly how much
- 8:06Speaker 3: entitlement that you have from the VA. To determine what's
- 8:10Speaker 3: the maximum, the possible maximum loan amount that you can
- 8:14Speaker 3: get financed for using a VA loan. Now, unlike well,
- 8:20Speaker 3: VA loans don't have a minimum a maximum loan amount requirement.
- 8:25Speaker 3: So if you go an FHA loan or a conventional mortgage,
- 8:29Speaker 3: you have a maximum loan amount. So let's just keep
- 8:31Speaker 3: in this so in New York, I'll just keep in
- 8:34Speaker 3: New York so a simple what a one family right now,
- 8:38Speaker 3: because this is considered a high cost area, you can
- 8:40Speaker 3: get an FHA or conventional mortgage million dollars on a
- 8:45Speaker 3: single family property, a four family property, you can go
- 8:48Speaker 3: up to like two million, a little bit under two
- 8:50Speaker 3: point one million somewhere around there. So the loan limits
- 8:53Speaker 3: increased in twenty twenty three, which is great because home
- 8:57Speaker 3: prices have been appreciated. But with VA loan there's technically
- 9:02Speaker 3: no minimum or no maximum loan amount for the VA.
- 9:07Speaker 3: It's all on how much eligibility you have and obviously
- 9:11Speaker 3: how much you can qualify for with your debt to
- 9:13Speaker 3: income ratio and your residual income, which I'm gonna go
- 9:15Speaker 3: into in a bit. So that's another great thing about
- 9:18Speaker 3: a VA loan. You can buy a single family home
- 9:21Speaker 3: one point five million dollars and get one hundred percent
- 9:24Speaker 3: finance and on it with a low interest rate with
- 9:27Speaker 3: no PMI.
- 9:28Speaker 6: Let's say you do do that, and you do a
- 9:30Speaker 6: loan for one point five is there a millionaire tax
- 9:33Speaker 6: that comes along with that, like.
- 9:35Speaker 3: A Manchi tax man tax? Right? So in New York,
- 9:37Speaker 3: if you purchasing a property over a million dollars, you
- 9:40Speaker 3: have mansion tax, which you guys happily had to pay, right,
- 9:47Speaker 3: mansion tax anybody but New York. That's common, right, A
- 9:50Speaker 3: million dollar house in New York is kind of like
- 9:53Speaker 3: the normal. It's like an everyday house. New York is
- 9:55Speaker 3: very expensive, but yes, you have to pay a man
- 9:59Speaker 3: attach other states it varies, you may not have to pay.
- 10:02Speaker 3: But I would say check which you know, your realtor,
- 10:05Speaker 3: or your local lend or whoever you work and with,
- 10:07Speaker 3: to see if you have to pay any type of
- 10:08Speaker 3: mansion tax.
- 10:09Speaker 6: Is there like a percentage that the standard mansion tax.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Is New York is one percent one percent, So a
- 10:16Speaker 3: million dollar sales price, you're going to pay ten thousand
- 10:19Speaker 3: dollars or in closing costs on top of all the
- 10:23Speaker 3: other fees that come with, you know, buying a property.
- 10:27Speaker 3: So if you're buying over a million dollars, it can
- 10:29Speaker 3: definitely get more expensive, especially in this state like New York.
- 10:33Speaker 3: So that's why you have you can't be house rich
- 10:35Speaker 3: and cash boy. You have to have money when you
- 10:38Speaker 3: go into that ballpark, right, But with a VA loan again,
- 10:42Speaker 3: you can go up to a million and a half.
- 10:43Speaker 3: You can go one point seven million. I've done loans
- 10:46Speaker 3: myself one three, one four when the loan amounts were
- 10:49Speaker 3: a lot less for conventional and FHA. So that's a
- 10:52Speaker 3: huge benefit for that veteran who can qualify for that
- 10:56Speaker 3: that large of a house. Right, And that's nationwide, so
- 10:59Speaker 3: it's not not determined on region where you live. If
- 11:03Speaker 3: you live in Kentucky and your veteran, you can get
- 11:06Speaker 3: approved for a million dollar loan with the VA if
- 11:10Speaker 3: you have the eligibility to do so, right, So that's
- 11:14Speaker 3: number one, right, But the most important thing I want
- 11:17Speaker 3: to touch on when it comes to a VA loan
- 11:19Speaker 3: because the most portant ingredient on any loan is the
- 11:22Speaker 3: debt to income ratio your DTI. Right, But what VA
- 11:28Speaker 3: you have what's called residual income, and that residual income
- 11:32Speaker 3: calculates basically, how much money do you have left over
- 11:37Speaker 3: after all of your expenses? Can the veteran truly afford
- 11:40Speaker 3: this house? And they taking your household thoughts. Right, So
- 11:44Speaker 3: let's just say, for example, you have a family of four,
- 11:48Speaker 3: right the VA, and if you're living in the Northeast,
- 11:52Speaker 3: they want to see after you're withholding has come out,
- 11:57Speaker 3: so they're looking at your gross income and they're going
- 11:59Speaker 3: to mind us out. You're withholdings like your fighter, your
- 12:02Speaker 3: social Security, all the taxes, you paying, your W two wages.
- 12:06Speaker 3: Then they're going to take the mortgage payment minus that
- 12:08Speaker 3: out of it. Then they're going to take your utilities
- 12:10Speaker 3: on the home right. And if you don't know what
- 12:12Speaker 3: the utilities are, lenders will use a calculation. It's usually
- 12:17Speaker 3: the square footage of the home times point one four percent,
- 12:21Speaker 3: and so if it's a two thousand square foot home
- 12:23Speaker 3: times point one four percent, that comes into like two
- 12:25Speaker 3: hundred and eighty dollars. That will guestimate what your utilities are.
- 12:30Speaker 3: We looking at childcare, we're looking at you know, student loans,
- 12:35Speaker 3: car loans. Everything goes into this calculation. And then at
- 12:39Speaker 3: the end of the day, after all of that is spent,
- 12:42Speaker 3: do you have at least one thousand dollars a month
- 12:47Speaker 3: left over? And if you do, you qualify right, and
- 12:51Speaker 3: if you don't, you don't qualify. So, for example, I've
- 12:56Speaker 3: seen Dell's where you might get an aus aprise, which
- 13:00Speaker 3: is the automated underwriting system that all lenders use that says, okay,
- 13:04Speaker 3: your DTI is X, it works, But then you might
- 13:08Speaker 3: not meet the residual income qualifications, and that can decline
- 13:13Speaker 3: your loan. So it's very important that veterans understand it,
- 13:18Speaker 3: and anyone, any real estate professional, any loan officer who's
- 13:22Speaker 3: working with VA clients, they understand the residual income calculation
- 13:26Speaker 3: because that right there can make or break your deal.
- 13:29Speaker 3: So what I try to advise any veteran or anybody
- 13:31Speaker 3: who's looking to buy a house, you not only just
- 13:34Speaker 3: want to get pre approved, you want to make sure
- 13:36Speaker 3: that the lender that you're working with has the ability
- 13:38Speaker 3: to submit your loan into underwriting. Why you're in that
- 13:40Speaker 3: pre approval status so that way an underwriter can reveal
- 13:44Speaker 3: your loan and get you what's called a pre underwriting
- 13:47Speaker 3: commitment or loan commitment while you're still in that home
- 13:50Speaker 3: buying stage. Because now you know it's been reviewed by
- 13:53Speaker 3: an underwriter. You know your commitment letter is legit. It's
- 13:57Speaker 3: not just some loan officer sending your life and saying, hey,
- 14:00Speaker 3: your pray approval for X, Y and Z. Go out
- 14:02Speaker 3: in the house shop. And then when you get a
- 14:03Speaker 3: house and then you get in the contract, you do
- 14:05Speaker 3: all these dispections, pay for appraisal, and then you go
- 14:08Speaker 3: to underwrite and you get the climb because they didn't
- 14:10Speaker 3: do the calculations properly from the very beginning. It happens
- 14:13Speaker 3: all the time, so that residual income is extremely important
- 14:17Speaker 3: when it comes to VA loans for all veterans out there,
- 14:21Speaker 3: for all professionals who are originating these loans. And that's
- 14:23Speaker 3: a lengthy process. Yeah, a lot. It's a lot of information,
- 14:27Speaker 3: a lot, a lot of tape, a lot of work
- 14:29Speaker 3: that has to be fouled.
- 14:30Speaker 6: You can correct me if I'm wrong, But VA loans
- 14:33Speaker 6: and one of the reasons that people use it and
- 14:35Speaker 6: it's a great loan product, is that there's no down payment.
- 14:39Speaker 3: Correct, it's one hundred percent financing for a VA loan. Now,
- 14:44Speaker 3: typically with a VA loan, it's if you are buying
- 14:47Speaker 3: the house and you're the veteran, you can get up
- 14:50Speaker 3: one hundred percent finance. And another thing also, you can
- 14:53Speaker 3: use the VA loan more than once, so it's not
- 14:56Speaker 3: like FAHA where you have to refinance out of the
- 14:59Speaker 3: FA to use the FAH loan. Again, right, with a
- 15:03Speaker 3: VA loan, if you have enough eligibility on your COOE,
- 15:07Speaker 3: you can buy another property. It just has to be
- 15:09Speaker 3: your primary residence. Now on that second property that you purchase,
- 15:13Speaker 3: you're not you're probably going to have to put some
- 15:15Speaker 3: sort of down payment because you use a lot of
- 15:18Speaker 3: your entitlement already to buy your first home. But necessarily
- 15:21Speaker 3: you don't have to refinance out of that initial property
- 15:24Speaker 3: that you purchase to use your VA loan again. So
- 15:27Speaker 3: it gives you the ability. I've seen people that have
- 15:29Speaker 3: three or four VA loans all still active because they
- 15:33Speaker 3: didn't burn up their eligibility by going out and buying
- 15:36Speaker 3: a million dollar million one point five million dollar house
- 15:39Speaker 3: the first go around. They probably bought a two three
- 15:42Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars house, started slow and work their way up,
- 15:46Speaker 3: and they still have had enough eligibility to use their
- 15:48Speaker 3: VA over and over and over.
- 15:50Speaker 5: A loan is they give you a certain amount of
- 15:53Speaker 5: money correctly.
- 15:56Speaker 3: Depending on your status of how you got discharged.
- 15:59Speaker 5: Depending on how long you work.
- 16:01Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 16:02Speaker 5: So it's like you might have a million dollars.
- 16:05Speaker 3: It's not that it's like and I'm not even going
- 16:07Speaker 3: to try to get into that. Go get the home
- 16:09Speaker 3: Boys Blueprint. It's a part of E Y L University
- 16:12Speaker 3: Volume one. We kind of break all the rest. Great
- 16:15Speaker 3: resource you know, it's a great resource that kind of
- 16:17Speaker 3: breaks down the calculations and everything like that. But essentially, yes,
- 16:22Speaker 3: the certificate eligibility will tell Linda, if this is your
- 16:25Speaker 3: first time using it, if you have used it multiple times,
- 16:28Speaker 3: how much of your eligibility is available, and then there's
- 16:31Speaker 3: a whole calculation that we have to do on our
- 16:33Speaker 3: and to determine exactly how much of a loan that
- 16:36Speaker 3: we can get you approved for. So it's a process
- 16:39Speaker 3: on our end.
- 16:40Speaker 6: If you have one, then you obviously you get the
- 16:41Speaker 6: additional properties. Are they looked at as investment properties because
- 16:45Speaker 6: I know you said you can't use as rental.
- 16:47Speaker 2: It's a primary residence, all of them, all four of them.
- 16:49Speaker 3: So when you buy the first one, you can rent
- 16:51Speaker 3: out after you meet your one year required and you
- 16:54Speaker 3: can go buy a new primary residence and now turn
- 16:57Speaker 3: that first property into a rental. So it's essentially your
- 17:01Speaker 3: house hacking, but you're just doing it the not quote
- 17:05Speaker 3: unquote non traditional way, and you're using the VA loan. Again,
- 17:09Speaker 3: even if you have to put down a down payment
- 17:11Speaker 3: five percent, you have no PMI, you're going to have
- 17:14Speaker 3: a low interest rate, right, So it's still a huge
- 17:16Speaker 3: benefit for someone who's looking to use as much of
- 17:22Speaker 3: the VA as possible, because look, they earned the benefits,
- 17:25Speaker 3: why not use it, use it as many times as
- 17:27Speaker 3: you can. So some people might start off with the
- 17:29Speaker 3: start at home two hundred, two hundred and fifty thousand,
- 17:31Speaker 3: whatever it is, and if they understand how to run
- 17:34Speaker 3: the play, they'll continue to use their VA, move out
- 17:37Speaker 3: of one, living it for a year, move out another one,
- 17:40Speaker 3: and keep going to keep going. So if you do
- 17:42Speaker 3: it the right way, you can you can buy a
- 17:45Speaker 3: couple of properties using your VA loan and having all
- 17:48Speaker 3: those VA loans still open, not having a refinance out
- 17:52Speaker 3: of them.
- 17:53Speaker 5: All right, Well, that's good to know a lot of
- 17:55Speaker 5: information when it comes to the VA loan situation.
- 17:58Speaker 3: So let's talk about how I'm gonna cut you off.
- 18:00Speaker 3: I said that in your voice too, don't mean to
- 18:04Speaker 3: cut right. So let's be since I've said house hack,
- 18:07Speaker 3: and I want to talk about multifamilies real quick because
- 18:09Speaker 3: this is very important.
- 18:10Speaker 6: Before that, don't mean to come you off. I mean,
- 18:13Speaker 6: I don't want to interrupt your wisdom. But like that one,
- 18:17Speaker 6: are there disadvantages?
- 18:18Speaker 3: Right?
- 18:18Speaker 6: So those are some of the advantager And I know
- 18:21Speaker 6: people have said like, does every lender off of VA loans? Like,
- 18:25Speaker 6: are there things that we did if they're veterans that
- 18:28Speaker 6: they should look out for good question.
- 18:30Speaker 3: So not all lenders and loan officers are built the same.
- 18:34Speaker 3: Just because someone offers a loan product doesn't mean they
- 18:37Speaker 3: know how to close that loan product. Doesn't mean they're
- 18:40Speaker 3: well versed in that loan product. So for the majority, yes,
- 18:44Speaker 3: all lenders will offer a VA loan. And I want
- 18:47Speaker 3: people to understand this right, there's a lot of lenders
- 18:50Speaker 3: out there that will have the name, their name of
- 18:54Speaker 3: their company. It will sound military issue. That doesn't mean
- 19:00Speaker 3: the VA is endorsing them. So a lot of people
- 19:03Speaker 3: will go to these lenders because it sounds like it's
- 19:06Speaker 3: military and it's a military mortgage company or something like
- 19:09Speaker 3: that that is VA endorsed, and it's not. The VA
- 19:13Speaker 3: doesn't endorse one particular lender over another. That's just a
- 19:17Speaker 3: marketing tactic. And you have to be careful, especially your veterans,
- 19:21Speaker 3: because a lot of times these companies are offering you
- 19:24Speaker 3: higher fees and higher rates than someone like myself or
- 19:28Speaker 3: a mortgage broker, a mortgage banker, So you got to
- 19:31Speaker 3: be They may not have military slang in their company name,
- 19:36Speaker 3: but doesn't mean they can't get you a better deal.
- 19:38Speaker 3: So I want people to understand when you when you're
- 19:40Speaker 3: shopping for who's going to do your VA loan, don't
- 19:43Speaker 3: just go with the company or the mortgage company just
- 19:46Speaker 3: because they have some sort of military affiliation in their name,
- 19:50Speaker 3: because it's all a marketing tactic, right. So that's number
- 19:52Speaker 3: one when it comes to people offering V loans. But again,
- 19:56Speaker 3: not all in is a built the same. Not everybody
- 19:59Speaker 3: unders stands VIA loans. These are easy loans if you
- 20:02Speaker 3: understand what you're doing, but they can become very difficult
- 20:06Speaker 3: if you don't. And again, the residual income is one
- 20:09Speaker 3: of the big things that I see people mess up
- 20:12Speaker 3: on because they never heard of it before and they
- 20:14Speaker 3: don't know how to calculate it. But for multifamilies on
- 20:17Speaker 3: house hacking, you can't. If you're a first time home
- 20:20Speaker 3: buyer and you're buying a multi family property and you're
- 20:24Speaker 3: looking to use the rental income to qualify, Unfortunately, the
- 20:28Speaker 3: VA doesn't allow that you have. In order to use
- 20:32Speaker 3: rental income to help you qualify for a multifamily using
- 20:35Speaker 3: a VA loan, you have to document that you have
- 20:39Speaker 3: at least twelve months experience of property management or owning
- 20:44Speaker 3: a multi family property. So if you don't work in
- 20:47Speaker 3: the property management field, if you don't have a multifamily
- 20:50Speaker 3: currently and it's filed on your taxes and we can
- 20:53Speaker 3: see that you've owned it for a year and you're
- 20:55Speaker 3: collecting rent, then unfortunately, you will not be able to
- 20:59Speaker 3: use the rental income to qualify you. Now, if you
- 21:02Speaker 3: do have that experience, then the VA will require at
- 21:05Speaker 3: least six months of reserves off your mortgage payments. So
- 21:08Speaker 3: if your mortgage payment is one thousand dollars a month,
- 21:10Speaker 3: we're going to require at least six thousand dollars in
- 21:13Speaker 3: your bank account post closing, after you pay your closing
- 21:15Speaker 3: costs left over. So I want people to understand using
- 21:20Speaker 3: a VA loan to house hack and buy multifamilies, if
- 21:24Speaker 3: you're dependent on the rental income to qualify you can
- 21:28Speaker 3: you can be up for a root awakening. You will
- 21:31Speaker 3: have to qualify using your own income to purchase that
- 21:35Speaker 3: multi family all right.
- 21:37Speaker 5: So let's get another topic in construction loans. This is
- 21:43Speaker 5: something that you know, me and Troy's going through right
- 21:45Speaker 5: now with find a Home and This is a lot
- 21:47Speaker 5: of time people don't even realize that there's different loans
- 21:50Speaker 5: that you have to take. Even when you're getting in
- 21:51Speaker 5: a mortgage, all mortgages aren't the same, correct, So it's
- 21:54Speaker 5: like a construction loan when you're actually building a house
- 21:57Speaker 5: from the ground up. Correct, The financing is different, very
- 22:02Speaker 5: it's very different, and it's a lot more strenuous. Well,
- 22:05Speaker 5: I'll let you talk about it, but a lot of
- 22:07Speaker 5: I don't think people are They wouldn't know that unless
- 22:10Speaker 5: they've actually done it before. So building a house, you know,
- 22:14Speaker 5: it can have some advantages, but you have to know
- 22:16Speaker 5: what you're getting yourself into before you before you decide
- 22:19Speaker 5: if it's gonna be a good decision or not. Absolutely,
- 22:21Speaker 5: So what's to deal with the construction loan situation?
- 22:25Speaker 3: Man construction loans.
- 22:26Speaker 5: And once again construction for not construction like you're going
- 22:30Speaker 5: to build an apartment building Like this is if you
- 22:32Speaker 5: buy a plot of land correct and you just want
- 22:35Speaker 5: to build your house as opposed to building a house
- 22:38Speaker 5: buying a house that's already built.
- 22:39Speaker 3: Correct. So you know, typically, like you said, you buy,
- 22:42Speaker 3: you get a piece of land, and now you need
- 22:45Speaker 3: funding for it. So there's two ways you can go
- 22:47Speaker 3: by it. If you're the consumer, if you're the home buyer,
- 22:50Speaker 3: you can buy the land or cash, which I would
- 22:52Speaker 3: recommend I'm buying whether it's cash or you use a
- 22:55Speaker 3: credit card, whatever means you find to buy that piece
- 22:58Speaker 3: of land, because I feel like this is the easiest
- 23:00Speaker 3: way to do a construction loan. And then now you
- 23:02Speaker 3: go to the bank to get a construction the permanent loan,
- 23:07Speaker 3: where now that construction permanent loan is basically it's treated
- 23:10Speaker 3: like a refinance now because since you already own the property,
- 23:14Speaker 3: so there's no rush right to get your plans and
- 23:18Speaker 3: your permits and things of that nature. Because with most
- 23:20Speaker 3: construction loans, when you're talking primary residences, which this conversation
- 23:25Speaker 3: is about, the bank is only going to give you
- 23:28Speaker 3: a construction time of nine to twelve months. So we
- 23:32Speaker 3: all know permits can take six months. So if you
- 23:36Speaker 3: do a one time closed construction loan, which is you're
- 23:39Speaker 3: buying the land and trying to get the construction loans simultaneously,
- 23:44Speaker 3: and you're using the bank for the finance and of
- 23:46Speaker 3: the land as well, that's when I see problems arise
- 23:50Speaker 3: because you're not technically the owner of that property. So
- 23:53Speaker 3: you can't go out and submit architectural plans to the
- 23:57Speaker 3: town that you're buying a property in until you close,
- 24:01Speaker 3: because you technically don't own the property unless the seller
- 24:04Speaker 3: of the property is willing to submit the plans on
- 24:08Speaker 3: your behalf, which in most cases they're not going to
- 24:11Speaker 3: do that, right, So it's much easier for you to
- 24:15Speaker 3: acquire the land on your own then use the bank
- 24:18Speaker 3: for the construction loan to build your home. And the
- 24:21Speaker 3: reason being again is because architectural plans can take depending
- 24:26Speaker 3: on the scope of your work, that can take two
- 24:29Speaker 3: to four months, depending on how busy your architect is
- 24:33Speaker 3: and how efficient they are, And when you get plans
- 24:36Speaker 3: you're going to go back and forth to adjust things
- 24:39Speaker 3: of that nature. So if you're doing a one time
- 24:42Speaker 3: close to construction, that means you're in contract and you
- 24:46Speaker 3: have a time clock already to close with the seller, right.
- 24:49Speaker 3: They don't want to sit there and wait four or
- 24:50Speaker 3: five months for you to get your plans together before
- 24:54Speaker 3: you close, So again that can cause a delay and
- 24:58Speaker 3: it can cause some between you and the seller. Now,
- 25:02Speaker 3: if you've got an architect who's on it, it can
- 25:04Speaker 3: get you plans in thirty days. Cool, you can do
- 25:07Speaker 3: the one time close. But again another con of that
- 25:11Speaker 3: is after closing, now you have to submit those plans
- 25:15Speaker 3: to the town to get approval and depending on the county,
- 25:20Speaker 3: which it has hit a miss, right, hit a miss
- 25:25Speaker 3: for plans. I mean New York is kind of like,
- 25:28Speaker 3: I don't want to say nothing negative because you know, but.
- 25:32Speaker 2: It kind it kind of gets interest.
- 25:35Speaker 3: Yeah, it gets kind of it gets kind of crazy,
- 25:37Speaker 3: and it could be a lengthy process. So now, if
- 25:40Speaker 3: you're in a tome clock to build and the lenders
- 25:43Speaker 3: only give you nine to twelve months, and some lenders
- 25:46Speaker 3: will give you an extension of an extra two to
- 25:47Speaker 3: three months. On top of that, you done wasted half
- 25:50Speaker 3: of your time just waiting on the plans to get
- 25:53Speaker 3: approved by the town. So my recommendation for construction loans
- 25:57Speaker 3: and anyone who's looking to build their first home or
- 26:00Speaker 3: their dream home, acquire the land first. Acquire the land first,
- 26:05Speaker 3: have a dope ass architect who understands the urgency of
- 26:09Speaker 3: what you're looking to do, get your plans and everything
- 26:12Speaker 3: drawn up because you already have the home now or
- 26:14Speaker 3: the land, so you don't have to rush. And now,
- 26:17Speaker 3: once you have your plans submitted, then applied for your
- 26:21Speaker 3: construction loan, because now it's more like a refinance. There's
- 26:25Speaker 3: no time clock, there's no sellers. You can take four
- 26:27Speaker 3: months to close, it doesn't matter. And once your plans
- 26:30Speaker 3: get approved, then close on your construction loan, then boom,
- 26:35Speaker 3: you can start your construction pretty much immediately.
- 26:39Speaker 6: Yeah, so let's talk about the other way when you
- 26:41Speaker 6: have a lender that will do both give you construction,
- 26:44Speaker 6: the construction loan for building it, and then actually having
- 26:48Speaker 6: the house built itself. Right, So there's two pieces you're
- 26:51Speaker 6: paying for both. Now, I think the misconception this is
- 26:53Speaker 6: something that we kind of learned through the process.
- 26:55Speaker 3: Like you get that time frame to.
- 26:57Speaker 6: Build, and you know you do that with your building
- 26:59Speaker 6: and they'll say it's between six to twelve months, we
- 27:03Speaker 6: can get this house built, correct, Right, But you're at
- 27:06Speaker 6: the mercy of the town, correct, right, because and the
- 27:08Speaker 6: builder and the builder and the engineers and the architects.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Correct.
- 27:12Speaker 6: But your paying for a house that you may not
- 27:15Speaker 6: even live in, right because sometimes the building process may
- 27:18Speaker 6: take sixteen months, absolutely, and so like for a year
- 27:21Speaker 6: you might be paying interest, but after that twelve months,
- 27:24Speaker 6: now you're going to be paying that full loan. So yeah,
- 27:26Speaker 6: talk about that in the apportances, that having residual income
- 27:28Speaker 6: in situations like this.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Yeah, so when you get a construction loan, first, it's
- 27:33Speaker 3: an interest. During the construction period, it's interest only payments. So,
- 27:38Speaker 3: like you said, you're going to be paying a mortgage payment,
- 27:40Speaker 3: you have to pay your property taxes, you have to
- 27:42Speaker 3: pay your homeowners insurance and builders insurance. You're going to
- 27:47Speaker 3: need buildings insurance as well to protect yourself on that end.
- 27:50Speaker 3: But yeah, you're going to have a payment. So if
- 27:52Speaker 3: it drags out, you know, and the lender says, okay,
- 27:56Speaker 3: now it's trying to convert from the construction to permanent.
- 28:01Speaker 3: Now you're going to be paying the mortgage payment. That's
- 28:03Speaker 3: going to be hired because now it's principal and interest
- 28:06Speaker 3: that's going to be included into your mortgage payment. So
- 28:10Speaker 3: your first twelve sixteen months is all going to be
- 28:13Speaker 3: interest only. And that's why it's very important if you're
- 28:16Speaker 3: going to take the leap of faith and build your
- 28:20Speaker 3: own home, especially if you're going to act as your
- 28:23Speaker 3: project manager. You're hiring your GC, you're hiring your builder,
- 28:26Speaker 3: you're hiring all these folks. And you're not buying directly
- 28:28Speaker 3: from a builder, right, you're hiring everybody. You have to
- 28:31Speaker 3: make sure you know what you're doing and you're hiring
- 28:33Speaker 3: the right folks, because folks will sit here and overpromise
- 28:36Speaker 3: and underdeliver you and kill your entire timeline, which ultimately
- 28:40Speaker 3: is going to cost you more money as the homeowner.
- 28:43Speaker 3: So it's very important that you make sure you vet
- 28:46Speaker 3: out your team because your team has to understand the
- 28:50Speaker 3: urgency of you getting it done the timeline, and they
- 28:53Speaker 3: have to understand how they get paid as well, because
- 28:56Speaker 3: there's a process of how they get paid. So when
- 29:00Speaker 3: you close on a construction loan, the lender is only
- 29:03Speaker 3: going to give you ten percent or max fifty thousand
- 29:08Speaker 3: within ten ten days fourteen days after closing, and typically
- 29:13Speaker 3: that money is used to cover you know, demolition permits, plans,
- 29:18Speaker 3: you know, things of that nature. You're kind of like
- 29:20Speaker 3: your soft costs, right, But the lender, I mean, the
- 29:23Speaker 3: builder will have to be able to front that job.
- 29:26Speaker 3: So let's just say that the building's going to cost
- 29:28Speaker 3: a million dollars Fellas to build, and they only released
- 29:31Speaker 3: in fifty thousand dollars. But the first phase of the
- 29:34Speaker 3: project is going to cost you all quarter a million dollars.
- 29:36Speaker 3: So now where does that two hundred thousand come from? Right,
- 29:40Speaker 3: that two hundred thousand has to come from the builder.
- 29:44Speaker 3: They have to be in position to start that job.
- 29:47Speaker 3: Complete phase one. Then the lender will send out an
- 29:51Speaker 3: inspector to inspect, you know, phase one, to make sure
- 29:54Speaker 3: autis across ASA dotted. And then the inspector will go
- 29:59Speaker 3: back to the bank say okay, you can release the
- 30:01Speaker 3: draw of two hundred thousand, and then now the builder
- 30:04Speaker 3: gets paid that two hundred thousand, and then they move
- 30:07Speaker 3: on to phase two and it goes on like that
- 30:10Speaker 3: until the job is complete. So it's very important that
- 30:13Speaker 3: you understand your builder, understands how they get paid, and
- 30:16Speaker 3: they are liquid because a lot of builders out here
- 30:20Speaker 3: are not liquid as well. So you can't pick the
- 30:22Speaker 3: builder just because they might have gave you the cheapest price.
- 30:27Speaker 5: How do you note that liquor.
- 30:28Speaker 3: Now the lenders will vet the builders as well. There's
- 30:32Speaker 3: a lot of lenders out there that use third party companies,
- 30:36Speaker 3: So I'm not going to mention their name because they
- 30:38Speaker 3: don't endorse us, right, and they will have to see
- 30:41Speaker 3: the liquidity of the builder bank statements, do you have
- 30:44Speaker 3: Amax's whatever it is, to make sure that they are
- 30:49Speaker 3: liquid to be able to do this job. Because the lenders,
- 30:52Speaker 3: again they're putting out a million dollars on construction. They
- 30:56Speaker 3: want this house built. They don't want to own the property,
- 30:59Speaker 3: especially if is something that's not built right. So it's
- 31:03Speaker 3: in their best interest as a lender to make sure
- 31:06Speaker 3: that the builder can get this job done and they
- 31:09Speaker 3: have the experience to get it done as well, because
- 31:12Speaker 3: a lot of people talk to talk, but they can't
- 31:14Speaker 3: walk the walk. So that's why again like a two
- 31:17Speaker 3: or three K, I like to call it two or
- 31:18Speaker 3: three K, the training will for investors. So a construction
- 31:22Speaker 3: loan when you're going through like the conventional way for
- 31:26Speaker 3: a homeowner, is kind of like training wheels if you
- 31:29Speaker 3: want to get into development as well, because you have
- 31:32Speaker 3: the lender by your side and the inspectors by your
- 31:35Speaker 3: side that work for you, and the lender to protect
- 31:38Speaker 3: you against the builders because you know, we all say
- 31:43Speaker 3: contractors are you know, you know what I'm saying, but
- 31:45Speaker 3: you got to But the bank is always going to
- 31:48Speaker 3: make sure that they protect the investment at the same time.
- 31:52Speaker 5: So what happens if it's not going right? Like, what
- 31:59Speaker 5: as as a customer, what recourse do you have if
- 32:06Speaker 5: the contractor isn't doing what he's supposed to be doing,
- 32:09Speaker 5: it's not moving at the timeline that's supposed to be
- 32:11Speaker 5: moved there, Like what can you do?
- 32:13Speaker 3: You can fire them, but then now you start from
- 32:16Speaker 3: square one again. Right now you have to find a
- 32:18Speaker 3: new builder. Now they have to give you their cost.
- 32:21Speaker 3: Now that's new paperwork that has to get submitted to
- 32:23Speaker 3: the bank. Right, So it's a whole process that if
- 32:27Speaker 3: you're doing this post closing right, you're doing the post
- 32:30Speaker 3: closing and you're already in your project. It's like anything
- 32:35Speaker 3: if you do. If you do a bathroom over in
- 32:37Speaker 3: your house and you don't like the contract and you
- 32:39Speaker 3: fired them, now a new contract is going to come
- 32:41Speaker 3: in and say, well, their work is not good, So
- 32:43Speaker 3: now I've got to tear all their work down and
- 32:46Speaker 3: restart it over again. So now the cost will be
- 32:49Speaker 3: more than what you anticipated. So you have to weigh
- 32:52Speaker 3: out what's the opportunity cost really of me firing my
- 32:55Speaker 3: contractor right now or my builder at the phase that
- 32:59Speaker 3: I'm in right now, because I'm already started and it
- 33:01Speaker 3: can wind up costing you more money. Now, if they're
- 33:04Speaker 3: just negligent and they're just disrespectful and they just don't
- 33:07Speaker 3: they're not really there, then obviously you're going to have
- 33:09Speaker 3: no choice. But you got to handle your business because
- 33:11Speaker 3: you are a CEO. This is real estate, right, so
- 33:13Speaker 3: you have to fire them. But understand there's going to
- 33:15Speaker 3: be now a whole new vetting process that now the
- 33:18Speaker 3: lender is going to have to do. And then ultimately,
- 33:20Speaker 3: if they're going to charge more than what the scope
- 33:23Speaker 3: of workers.
- 33:24Speaker 2: Already approve, you're not getting no more money.
- 33:28Speaker 3: So where's that extra money. If they're gonna charge your
- 33:30Speaker 3: extra fifty one hundred K, where's that extra money coming from.
- 33:33Speaker 3: It's coming from you because you decided to fire them.
- 33:36Speaker 3: So it's best while you're in the underwriting process. If
- 33:40Speaker 3: you're going to make any changes with your contract or
- 33:43Speaker 3: your builder, is best to do it while you're in
- 33:46Speaker 3: the process because if they come with the higher scope
- 33:49Speaker 3: of work, then you can protect yourself easier and reapply
- 33:55Speaker 3: or not reapply, but you can ask for all request
- 33:58Speaker 3: to see if you can get more of a approval
- 34:01Speaker 3: to compensate for that extra money. So you just have
- 34:04Speaker 3: to make sure again vetting out your people to make
- 34:07Speaker 3: sure that they are who they say they are.
- 34:10Speaker 6: If I'm looking to build a new property and I'm
- 34:12Speaker 6: trying to find land, I know you can vet everybody
- 34:15Speaker 6: on that side, but is there any way to or
- 34:18Speaker 6: is there a database that you can vet the town
- 34:20Speaker 6: engineer or the county engineer or the building department.
- 34:23Speaker 3: Is there any way to do that?
- 34:24Speaker 6: Because a lot of times, and we've seen it personally,
- 34:27Speaker 6: like they're the ones that are hold enough the whole things, right,
- 34:31Speaker 6: Like I might not move to that town, or I
- 34:34Speaker 6: might not try to develop there if I know there's
- 34:35Speaker 6: going to be that type of lay if they have
- 34:37Speaker 6: a history of that.
- 34:38Speaker 3: So typically when you're applying for permits and stuff like that,
- 34:42Speaker 3: you would want to hire an expediter, right And the
- 34:45Speaker 3: experedite is someone who works within the town or has
- 34:49Speaker 3: a relationship with them and they're able to push the
- 34:52Speaker 3: paperwork through in a timely matter. But ultimately, again it's relationships, right,
- 34:57Speaker 3: Like if you hire a great architect and they have
- 35:00Speaker 3: good relationships within the town because they're doing a lot
- 35:03Speaker 3: of business and they're doing a lot of jobs, then
- 35:06Speaker 3: they might not need to hire experdita because they know
- 35:08Speaker 3: Mary Sue over here in this department and their sons
- 35:13Speaker 3: go to soccer together, right, so they can have that
- 35:15Speaker 3: type of conversation and kind of try to get things
- 35:17Speaker 3: pushed through. But that's hit and miss as well. So no,
- 35:21Speaker 3: is there a way to vet, really really not. It's
- 35:25Speaker 3: kind of the lucky to draw and you have to
- 35:27Speaker 3: put your plans in as complete as possible because sometimes
- 35:30Speaker 3: they'll come back and they want corrections.
- 35:32Speaker 2: To your plans and then you got to go back
- 35:34Speaker 2: and forth as well.
- 35:35Speaker 3: So it's unfortunately, it's one of those situations you're damned
- 35:39Speaker 3: if you do, you're damned if you don't. The town
- 35:42Speaker 3: is always going to come back with something. They're always
- 35:44Speaker 3: going to want some sort of correction, and there's always
- 35:47Speaker 3: going to be some back and forth. And that's why
- 35:50Speaker 3: your architect and building is probably one of the most
- 35:53Speaker 3: important roles because they have to be quick on their feet.
- 35:56Speaker 3: Some architects are just slow as hell to change something
- 36:01Speaker 3: so minor to us. It might take them thirty days.
- 36:05Speaker 3: That's setting your timeline back, right, So again I think
- 36:09Speaker 3: not vetting the building apartment, you need to vet the
- 36:13Speaker 3: architect to make sure that what's their turnaround for changes,
- 36:18Speaker 3: what's their relationships with the town that you're building in.
- 36:21Speaker 3: How many jobs have they submitted in the last sixty
- 36:25Speaker 3: ninety twelve months? Right, these are questions when you're interviewing
- 36:29Speaker 3: an architect. Just don't go off the referral like, oh,
- 36:32Speaker 3: he's a great architect and this than a third Nah,
- 36:34Speaker 3: Chill ask the questions. Right, this is your house, this
- 36:37Speaker 3: is your business. You own the property, You're responsible for
- 36:40Speaker 3: the mortgage payment, nobody else. So you have to make
- 36:43Speaker 3: sure whoever you're hiring, you have to make sure they
- 36:45Speaker 3: can get that job done. And they have a sense
- 36:47Speaker 3: of urgency too, right, And because a lot of these
- 36:50Speaker 3: folks they just don't have it.
- 36:52Speaker 5: So let's talk about build to rent financing.
- 36:55Speaker 3: Build to rent finance, yes, investors. Build to rent financing
- 37:00Speaker 3: is you know something that's happening nationwide from a mom
- 37:05Speaker 3: and pop level and also from the institutional level. Right,
- 37:10Speaker 3: So build to rent financing, you can buy them in
- 37:14Speaker 3: your you can get these Basically, it's the same thing
- 37:17Speaker 3: like a constructional Right, you find a plot of land
- 37:20Speaker 3: or older property and you want to build a multi
- 37:24Speaker 3: family building. You know, five units, ten units, What have you,
- 37:29Speaker 3: and most cases you want to have some sort of
- 37:33Speaker 3: experience with investing number one. So most lenders, if you're
- 37:38Speaker 3: a first time investor, they probably won't lend to you
- 37:41Speaker 3: on build to rent financing because you just don't have
- 37:44Speaker 3: the experience of being a landlord. So that's number one.
- 37:47Speaker 3: So this is really not like a first time home
- 37:50Speaker 3: buyer type of product. It's for the real estate investor.
- 37:55Speaker 3: Everything is in your LLC, it's not in your personal name,
- 37:57Speaker 3: just like when you're buying a turnkey prop. But essentially
- 38:01Speaker 3: it's the same like construction loan. You're getting a loan
- 38:04Speaker 3: from the bank to build the multifamily that ultimately you're
- 38:09Speaker 3: not flipping the multifamily. You're going to rent it out.
- 38:12Speaker 3: It's a new construction multifamily. And you can do this
- 38:16Speaker 3: product nationwide, so it's a great product. Right now, interest
- 38:20Speaker 3: rates are going to be a little bit high on
- 38:21Speaker 3: a higher level just because the market that we d
- 38:24Speaker 3: so you have to make sure the numbers still work.
- 38:27Speaker 3: But traditionally for this type of finance, and you can
- 38:30Speaker 3: expect you need to be able to put down at
- 38:32Speaker 3: least a thirty percent down payment twenty five to thirty
- 38:35Speaker 3: percent down payment plus your closing costs to get this done.
- 38:38Speaker 3: But again it's the same thing. You need architects, you
- 38:42Speaker 3: need to get your plans, You gotta submit earners. What's up?
- 38:46Speaker 6: You ever walk into a small business and everything just
- 38:49Speaker 6: works like the checkout is fast or seats of digital

- 39:57Speaker 6: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,
- 40:00Speaker 6: and sure, they definitely can be, but understanding a professional's
- 40:04Speaker 6: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,
- 40:07Speaker 6: day after day.
- 40:09Speaker 3: It's like banking with P and C Bank.
- 40:11Speaker 6: It might seem boring to save, plan and make calculated
- 40:14Speaker 6: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is

- 40:21Speaker 6: and C Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly

- 40:36Speaker 1: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
- 40:40Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from El Salvador
- 40:44Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
- 40:48Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
- 40:52Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
- 40:56Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States
- 40:59Speaker 1: secret Terry of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal
- 41:04Speaker 1: border crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and
- 41:07Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If
- 41:11Speaker 1: you are here illegally, you're next. You will be fine
- 41:15Speaker 1: nearly one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported. You
- 41:19Speaker 1: will never return. But if you register using our CBP
- 41:22Speaker 1: home app and leave now, you could be allowed to
- 41:25Speaker 1: return legally. Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump,
- 41:30Speaker 1: America's laws border and families will be protected.
- 41:34Speaker 2: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security permits.
- 41:37Speaker 3: You need a construction crew. Your construction crew has to
- 41:39Speaker 3: have experience will build them multifamilies. So it's not like
- 41:43Speaker 3: you have my wake up and I'm gonna do build
- 41:45Speaker 3: rent right. You have to have a team in place
- 41:48Speaker 3: that can actually get the job done. Because now when
- 41:51Speaker 3: you get to building atten you unit, a fifteen unit,
- 41:54Speaker 3: a five unit, whatever it is, it's a lot more
- 41:58Speaker 3: work that has to be done for from a design standpoint,
- 42:02Speaker 3: to make sure everything's cold. And they're now submitting that
- 42:05Speaker 3: to the town. Now that process can take a little
- 42:08Speaker 3: while longer to get approved just because of the amount
- 42:11Speaker 3: of plans that has to be submitted to the town.
- 42:14Speaker 6: So you got a slightly higher interest rate. Correct, You're
- 42:18Speaker 6: going to put more of a down payment.
- 42:20Speaker 3: Correct.
- 42:20Speaker 6: But on the flip side, new bills always attract premium
- 42:25Speaker 6: customers absolutely, and so you'll probably get high rental costs
- 42:28Speaker 6: from your renters and new construction. New bills always require
- 42:35Speaker 6: for long term or at least for the immedia future
- 42:37Speaker 6: if youre maintenance costs when the.
- 42:38Speaker 3: People are in.
- 42:39Speaker 6: There absolutely are other like hitting advantages that are inside
- 42:43Speaker 6: this loan.
- 42:44Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you about some cons before I
- 42:46Speaker 3: go into some advantages. Right, So let's look at when
- 42:49Speaker 3: you're doing anything build to rent. Remember this is an investment,
- 42:52Speaker 3: but it's going to take time for you to recoup
- 42:54Speaker 3: your investment, right because you got to think about this
- 42:57Speaker 3: depending on where you're building that and to just get
- 43:00Speaker 3: the plans approve, that could be six months eight months alone, right,
- 43:04Speaker 3: then you have to build the property. Right, Building the
- 43:07Speaker 3: property can take a year, maybe a little bit longer.
- 43:10Speaker 3: So you gotta figure your first two years you have
- 43:12Speaker 3: no income coming into this property, and then now you
- 43:15Speaker 3: have to go out here and rent the property and
- 43:18Speaker 3: depending on the market at that time, you might be
- 43:21Speaker 3: protracting two years ago. Hey the rents are here, I'm
- 43:24Speaker 3: going to make X right, or construction costs is this.
- 43:28Speaker 3: But if construction costs goes up while you're filing your permits,
- 43:32Speaker 3: that can blow up your numbers too. Let's say a
- 43:35Speaker 3: rental income goes down or rent income goes down in
- 43:38Speaker 3: your neighborhood, that can blow up your numbers as well.
- 43:41Speaker 3: So there's cons with doing any type of build to
- 43:44Speaker 3: rent type of finance. And so I want any type
- 43:47Speaker 3: of deal. I should say, not just the finance of
- 43:49Speaker 3: just taking on those type of deals, because anything can
- 43:52Speaker 3: happen and within that time frame before you even put
- 43:56Speaker 3: a shovel on the ground, right, which can really hurt
- 43:58Speaker 3: your numbers.
- 43:59Speaker 2: So I want all viole folks who are watching us.
- 44:01Speaker 3: To really understand you can't have these lofty numbers because
- 44:05Speaker 3: a lot of times people will come and say, oh,
- 44:07Speaker 3: I'm gonna charge this. I know the market is this,
- 44:09Speaker 3: but I'm gonna go to hear No, you can't depend
- 44:12Speaker 3: on that, right because you got to always plan for
- 44:15Speaker 3: the very worst case scenario. Now, on the flip side,
- 44:19Speaker 3: your forcing appreciation, that's really the truest way to build
- 44:22Speaker 3: wealth with real estate is now your force and appreciation.
- 44:25Speaker 3: Right now, we're still in an appreciated market. Although home
- 44:29Speaker 3: prices and values have come down, they haven't went negative, right,
- 44:35Speaker 3: so you're forcing the appreciation. If you're able to get
- 44:39Speaker 3: good court with materials, you can probably find yourself to
- 44:43Speaker 3: have a lot of equity in that multifamily that you're building,
- 44:47Speaker 3: and then now you'll be able to refinance out of
- 44:49Speaker 3: that loan, get into and possibly take some cash out
- 44:54Speaker 3: now so you can go and do another project. So
- 44:57Speaker 3: builtering financing is a right product, but it's strictly for
- 45:01Speaker 3: live men, not for freshmen, not for freshmen, not for freshmen,
- 45:05Speaker 3: not for freshmen. You really have to you have to
- 45:08Speaker 3: have a team, And I will advise anyone who's looking
- 45:10Speaker 3: to do any type of bill to finance any type
- 45:13Speaker 3: of deal like that, get some partners who know what
- 45:16Speaker 3: they're doing, because it's a lot to try to develop property,
- 45:20Speaker 3: and if you're a rookie, you're going to make a
- 45:22Speaker 3: lot of mistakes, and it's almost sometimes better to either
- 45:25Speaker 3: pay for some sort of consultant or mentor because that
- 45:30Speaker 3: will save you a lot of time, mistakes and money.
- 45:35Speaker 3: So I would highly advise anyone who's looking to do
- 45:37Speaker 3: this for the first time to get to get some
- 45:40Speaker 3: real people in their circle that can really help them
- 45:43Speaker 3: and guide them. So that way you learn. You're paying
- 45:46Speaker 3: for it, but you're earning while you're learning, so to speak.
- 45:50Speaker 5: So what about people you made a video? I think
- 45:55Speaker 5: about this when putting a house in your name as
- 45:58Speaker 5: opposed to putting a house not in your name, so
- 46:00Speaker 5: people can't find out where you live, different things of
- 46:02Speaker 5: the nature.
- 46:03Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the.
- 46:03Speaker 5: What's the deal with that?
- 46:05Speaker 3: So when you're buying a property and if you're using
- 46:08Speaker 3: a non QM loan, a non QM loan is a
- 46:11Speaker 3: non qualified mortgage that basically means that Fannie Mae Freddie
- 46:16Speaker 3: mac fha Va won't purchase that loan in the secondary market. Right,
- 46:21Speaker 3: this is a portfolio loan, which more non traditional lenders
- 46:25Speaker 3: will use for non traditional buyers. Right now, if you're
- 46:30Speaker 3: buying a primary residence, there are several lenders out there
- 46:34Speaker 3: that will allow you to buy that primary residence in
- 46:38Speaker 3: your LLC name. Right, we are living in the post
- 46:41Speaker 3: pandemic era where a lot of people made a lot
- 46:43Speaker 3: of money over the past two years, and folks are buying,
- 46:47Speaker 3: you know, their mini mansions and their the mansions right now,
- 46:52Speaker 3: and if you don't want the world to be able
- 46:55Speaker 3: to find you, the best way is to put it
- 46:59Speaker 3: in a l SE so that way they can't google
- 47:02Speaker 3: your name and find you because it's in the LLC.
- 47:05Speaker 3: So now the mortgage is in the LLC name, the
- 47:07Speaker 3: deed of the properties in the LLC name. You own
- 47:11Speaker 3: the LLC, the LLC owns the property, so it's the
- 47:14Speaker 3: same It's the same way as if you're buying investment
- 47:18Speaker 3: properties and putt in LLC, but this just so happens
- 47:22Speaker 3: to be your primary residence. So there's several lenders that
- 47:25Speaker 3: out there that will allow you to do this. But again,
- 47:29Speaker 3: interest rates wise, right now, non QM loans is going
- 47:33Speaker 3: to be in that seven to nine percent range, just
- 47:36Speaker 3: depending on the lender and the deal that you're doing,
- 47:38Speaker 3: but it can get done. I've done several loans like
- 47:41Speaker 3: that over the past twenty four months where I'm working
- 47:45Speaker 3: with celebrities or influencers and we're using these products to
- 47:50Speaker 3: kind of shield their identity. And then also when you
- 47:53Speaker 3: set up the LLC and it's gonna be a brand
- 47:54Speaker 3: new LLC tool by the way. It doesn't need established
- 47:57Speaker 3: business credit. You can have a minimum of a six
- 48:00Speaker 3: forty credit score. Obviously, the lower the credit score, the
- 48:02Speaker 3: higher interest rate. But the key to this is when
- 48:06Speaker 3: you open up the LLC, you know where it says
- 48:08Speaker 3: you open an LLC, it says registered agent. You don't
- 48:10Speaker 3: put your name there as the registered agent. Because if
- 48:13Speaker 3: someone looks in some way somehow finds that LLC and
- 48:17Speaker 3: your the name is the registered agent, then obviously they're
- 48:20Speaker 3: going to know you own it. So you got to
- 48:22Speaker 3: have another registered agent's name there, so that way you
- 48:25Speaker 3: showed as well. But yeah, that's a play right now
- 48:29Speaker 3: that we're using on a daily basis.
- 48:31Speaker 5: And mole it's the highest interest, it's a higher interest rate.
- 48:33Speaker 3: It's gonna if you have a lower credit score, but
- 48:36Speaker 3: if you have seven hundred plus credit scores. Because you're
- 48:39Speaker 3: still personal guaranteeing the loan. I want to make that
- 48:41Speaker 3: clear too. Although it's going in the LLC's name, you
- 48:45Speaker 3: as the owner, are personal guaranteeing it. So if you
- 48:49Speaker 3: try to skip down and not pay the bank, okay,
- 48:53Speaker 3: they're gonna just put it on your personal credit and
- 48:55Speaker 3: then they're gonna come after you. So yes, the high
- 49:00Speaker 3: the credit score, the lower the interest rate, and in
- 49:02Speaker 3: today's market, that lower rate will represent probably somewhere in
- 49:05Speaker 3: the sevens the higher nine ten percent, especially if you're
- 49:09Speaker 3: not low six hundred credit score.
- 49:10Speaker 6: So are there are ways and I saw you post
- 49:13Speaker 6: this as well, are there ways to lower the interest rate?
- 49:16Speaker 3: Obviously we've seen them going up over the.
- 49:18Speaker 6: Past twelve months and come down slightly over the past
- 49:23Speaker 6: month or so. Are there ways that we can use
- 49:26Speaker 6: or strategies we can use to lower our interest rates
- 49:28Speaker 6: when it comes to finance, and know for primary residences
- 49:31Speaker 6: or I let's take primary and maybe I guess so.
- 49:35Speaker 3: Yeah, So if we're talking the traditional route, right, conventional FHA,
- 49:39Speaker 3: you could do what's called a two to one by
- 49:41Speaker 3: down right now. Two to one buy down is it
- 49:44Speaker 3: used to be popular during the wild cowboy days. It
- 49:47Speaker 3: was totally underwritten different but now I like the way
- 49:50Speaker 3: the program is. So basically, essentially, as a two to
- 49:53Speaker 3: one buy down, you need to sell this concession the
- 49:55Speaker 3: fundess buy down. You the borrower, cannot use your own
- 50:00Speaker 3: monies to do the two one buy down. So how
- 50:03Speaker 3: it works is a lender, let's just say you're doing
- 50:06Speaker 3: the FHA loan. Let's just say today's rate is five
- 50:09Speaker 3: and a half percent on a thirty year fix for example,
- 50:12Speaker 3: the first year your interest rate will be three point
- 50:15Speaker 3: five percent, the second year the rate will be four
- 50:18Speaker 3: point five percent, and year three to maturity date will
- 50:23Speaker 3: be the note rate of five and a half percent.
- 50:26Speaker 3: So the lender will determine how much money are you
- 50:29Speaker 3: saving between three and a half percent and five and
- 50:32Speaker 3: a half percent and four and a half percent and
- 50:34Speaker 3: five and a half percent. So let's just say over
- 50:37Speaker 3: those two years you're saving a combination of ten thousand dollars. Right,
- 50:42Speaker 3: you need to get a sealers concession of ten thousand
- 50:45Speaker 3: dollars to fund that two one buy down, and that
- 50:49Speaker 3: essentially will give you the opportunity to have a lower
- 50:52Speaker 3: rate for the first couple of years, kind of like
- 50:54Speaker 3: a teaser rate, so to speak. But it's a thirty
- 50:56Speaker 3: year fixed program. And the idea behind this is, and
- 51:00Speaker 3: this is why lenders started bringing this program back when
- 51:03Speaker 3: rates jumped up, is because you know what, lenders are
- 51:05Speaker 3: still going to lend. We're going to be creative, We're
- 51:07Speaker 3: going to figure this shit out. Right, it's totally illegal,
- 51:10Speaker 3: so we're going to bring back products that makes both
- 51:12Speaker 3: sense and sense for all parties involved. This is a
- 51:15Speaker 3: way to make home ownership affordable over the first couple
- 51:20Speaker 3: of years while we ride the wave of this current cycle,
- 51:24Speaker 3: and when rates tick down there's going to be a
- 51:26Speaker 3: refinance boom in the next twelve to eighteen months, maybe
- 51:30Speaker 3: sooner right now. Another way is to buy down points.
- 51:35Speaker 3: Buying down points now you can fund this with a
- 51:38Speaker 3: salies concession, or you can use your cash out of
- 51:41Speaker 3: your bank account to buy down points and as part
- 51:43Speaker 3: of your closing costs as well. And one point is
- 51:46Speaker 3: equivalent of one percent of the loan amount, So if
- 51:49Speaker 3: you're buying let's just say it's a five hundred thousand
- 51:52Speaker 3: dollars loan, one point is five thousand dollars, and that
- 51:56Speaker 3: will bring your rate down, depending on the lender, a
- 51:59Speaker 3: quarter a point to three eighths of a point. So
- 52:02Speaker 3: if it started off at five and a half, you
- 52:04Speaker 3: brought a point, it will go to five point one
- 52:06Speaker 3: two five percent or five and a quarter on a
- 52:09Speaker 3: thirty year fix. And each point you buy will knock
- 52:13Speaker 3: down quarter to three a's of a point. So that's
- 52:15Speaker 3: also another way that you can bring down your interest rate.
- 52:20Speaker 3: But ultimately, the way to lock in the lowest rates
- 52:24Speaker 3: possible is to have the highest possible credit score that
- 52:29Speaker 3: you can have, especially in today's market, where you know,
- 52:32Speaker 3: even if you have a seven hundred credit score, you
- 52:34Speaker 3: might not still get the lowest rate, whereas a year
- 52:36Speaker 3: ago that still would give you a great rate at
- 52:39Speaker 3: seven hundred and seven to twenty. Now you really have
- 52:41Speaker 3: to be in that if you're going conventional, you really
- 52:44Speaker 3: have to be seven forty seven sixty and higher right
- 52:47Speaker 3: now to really get that whatever that national rate that
- 52:51Speaker 3: people see online with no points, you really have to
- 52:54Speaker 3: be in that higher upper echelon of credit when you're
- 52:57Speaker 3: talking conventional. Now, fha, you can have a six eighty
- 53:01Speaker 3: seven hundred credit store still get a great rate with
- 53:05Speaker 3: those scores.
- 53:05Speaker 6: So in that first scenario, going from's that example three
- 53:10Speaker 6: point five to five point five, after it gets let's
- 53:12Speaker 6: say after that third year, is it capped at the
- 53:14Speaker 6: five point five?
- 53:15Speaker 3: Correct?
- 53:15Speaker 2: It's capped, right, So it's not an adjustable rate.
- 53:17Speaker 3: Correct, it's not adjustable rate. It's a thirty it's a
- 53:20Speaker 3: thirty year fixed mortgage. But speaking of adjustable rates, that's
- 53:22Speaker 3: another way, but adjustable rates, you got to really look
- 53:25Speaker 3: at the math and see does it make sense for
- 53:29Speaker 3: me to take this adjustable rate because the a five
- 53:32Speaker 3: year so adjustable rates are typically fixed for five years,
- 53:35Speaker 3: seven years, or ten years, and then after that it
- 53:38Speaker 3: adjusts for the life of the loan. Depending on where
- 53:41Speaker 3: the market is, the rate can go up and go down.
- 53:44Speaker 3: So folks who had adjustable rates prior to the pandemic,
- 53:48Speaker 3: they won because they rates. If there was an adjustment phase,
- 53:52Speaker 3: they rates drop down so they didn't really necessarily have
- 53:57Speaker 3: to refinance and pay closing costs and things like that
- 53:59Speaker 3: because the market was in a favor now on the
- 54:02Speaker 3: flip side, huh difference, so they I advise all my
- 54:07Speaker 3: clients and people who I was speaking to who had adjustables,
- 54:11Speaker 3: you might as well get out of it because the ten, fifteen, twenty,
- 54:15Speaker 3: and thirties the cheapest has ever been, So it doesn't
- 54:17Speaker 3: make sense to play the risk. But in this market,
- 54:20Speaker 3: adjustable rates make sense. For someone who is not looking
- 54:24Speaker 3: and they know that not going to stand at home
- 54:26Speaker 3: for the long term. This is not a thirty year
- 54:28Speaker 3: play for them. This is a five year place. So
- 54:30Speaker 3: if you know I'm gonna be in this house for
- 54:32Speaker 3: five years and I'm just using this as my starter home.
- 54:35Speaker 3: I wouldn't recommend getting a five year ARM. I would
- 54:38Speaker 3: probably say do a seven or ten because life happens
- 54:41Speaker 3: and you never know. And if you see an opportunity
- 54:43Speaker 3: to refinance over the next couple of years and you
- 54:45Speaker 3: still own that house, take advantage of the refinance opportunity
- 54:48Speaker 3: as well. So adjustable rate mortgagees can work if it
- 54:51Speaker 3: makes sense, But in most cases, from what I'm seeing,
- 54:54Speaker 3: sometimes it just doesn't make sense.
- 54:57Speaker 5: So let's talk about hedge funds buying single family homes.
- 55:01Speaker 3: What's the deal with that business. Look, I know there's
- 55:05Speaker 3: a lot of chat on the internet about the housing market,
- 55:08Speaker 3: and a lot of folks will tell you, don't buy
- 55:10Speaker 3: a house right now, don't do this right now. I
- 55:14Speaker 3: tend to follow the money. What is the money doing.
- 55:18Speaker 3: The money is the institutional investors and what they're doing
- 55:21Speaker 3: right now. They're buying houses in the forms of billions
- 55:25Speaker 3: and billions and billions of dollars. So for me, the
- 55:27Speaker 3: light bulb goes over my head and say, hmm, what
- 55:30Speaker 3: do they know that we don't know. These people are
- 55:33Speaker 3: smart as hell, they're not stupid, and if they're buying homes,
- 55:37Speaker 3: then why are we sitting on the sidelines, Well, not us,
- 55:41Speaker 3: but why are some of our audience sitting on the
- 55:44Speaker 3: sidelines and waiting for a quote unquote crash or anything
- 55:48Speaker 3: like that to happen to get themselves in the game.
- 55:51Speaker 3: If you look at the institutional money out there, they're
- 55:54Speaker 3: buying all of Georgia right now for the most part.
- 55:58Speaker 3: You know, you got Jeff Bezos and his back companies
- 56:03Speaker 3: that are buying real estate. JP Morgan Chase just partner
- 56:06Speaker 3: with another hedge fund. They're buying billion dollars worth of
- 56:09Speaker 3: real estate right All of these companies, all these institutional
- 56:13Speaker 3: investors are putting their money into the safe haven of
- 56:16Speaker 3: real estate for a reason and the purpose because real
- 56:20Speaker 3: estate is going nowhere. Right, Crypto was up to sixty
- 56:24Speaker 3: plus thousand dollars. Now where is it at? Stocks was
- 56:28Speaker 3: up where and where is at? If the housing market
- 56:32Speaker 3: does crash, I can still go touch my house. The
- 56:35Speaker 3: tenant still has to pay me. I'm still going to
- 56:37Speaker 3: get the same cash flow because with inflation rising, even
- 56:42Speaker 3: though it's coming down a little bit, people still have
- 56:44Speaker 3: to pay their rent. And if you buy right, there's
- 56:47Speaker 3: always going to be cash flow coming in no matter
- 56:49Speaker 3: what the market is doing. So real estate is it
- 56:52Speaker 3: will be probably one always one of the greatest investment
- 56:56Speaker 3: tools out there, especially because of the tax benefits that
- 57:00Speaker 3: come with it. And you have to understand the tax
- 57:02Speaker 3: play behind buying that much real estate as well. So
- 57:05Speaker 3: these people are rich and wealthy and they're trying to
- 57:09Speaker 3: hedge their taxes and minimize it too. So what's the
- 57:11Speaker 3: best player real estate? Brick and mortar because of things
- 57:15Speaker 3: like depreciation, cost segregation, there's a lot of different things
- 57:19Speaker 3: that you can do to offset your wins. If you
- 57:22Speaker 3: got huge capital gains, you can put that in ten
- 57:24Speaker 3: thirty one changes, buy real estate, so you defering your
- 57:28Speaker 3: taxes down the road. Right. Real estate gives you all
- 57:31Speaker 3: these plays that the wealthy use at scale to continue
- 57:37Speaker 3: to grow their wealth. Whereas with us in our community,
- 57:41Speaker 3: we like to listen to everybody else, but instead of
- 57:43Speaker 3: following the money, so the institution investors are going to
- 57:47Speaker 3: continue to buy real estate and also playing devil's advocate.
- 57:53Speaker 3: Why is that too? Besides everything I mentioned is to
- 57:56Speaker 3: keep the middle class middle classing right to make America
- 57:59Speaker 3: ten period. Like the middle class areas they don't want
- 58:06Speaker 3: you to own homes, They don't want you to be wealthy.
- 58:08Speaker 3: They don't want you to be rich, they don't want
- 58:10Speaker 3: you to build your wealth. So they're buying all these
- 58:13Speaker 3: properties in my opinion, to keep the middle class at
- 58:17Speaker 3: the middle class.
- 58:17Speaker 5: So but like a lot of investors, like Julian Gordon,
- 58:20Speaker 5: they like it doesn't make sense to invest in multi
- 58:22Speaker 5: in a single family, invest in multi family owns. So
- 58:26Speaker 5: this is contrary to that because this is billion dollar entities.
- 58:29Speaker 5: They're not buying well, they're buying multi pemple, but they're
- 58:31Speaker 5: buying single family homes.
- 58:33Speaker 3: Yeah, because single family is so you know, shout out
- 58:35Speaker 3: to Julia first and foremost in the multi family movement.
- 58:39Speaker 3: But I understand his logic is if it's a single family,
- 58:43Speaker 3: one it's one income coming in and if they don't pay,
- 58:46Speaker 3: then somebody has to pay that debt. Whereas it's a
- 58:48Speaker 3: multi family, you have multiple rents coming in, so if
- 58:51Speaker 3: one person doesn't pay, you have four units. You still
- 58:54Speaker 3: got three rents coming in that can cover, right. So
- 58:56Speaker 3: I understand that logic, But the reality of it is
- 59:00Speaker 3: people live in single family rents. Who's longer than multi families.
- 59:04Speaker 3: Multi family apartments are smaller than somebody want to live
- 59:07Speaker 3: in house. So if you have children, you don't want
- 59:10Speaker 3: to live in the hood where are most multi families at.
- 59:14Speaker 3: And now New York is different, right because you can
- 59:17Speaker 3: go to Brooklyn and be in Park Slow and it's
- 59:21Speaker 3: five million dollar multifamilies there, right. So New York is
- 59:25Speaker 3: just a different peace in the self. So I can't
- 59:28Speaker 3: compare New York to the rest of the country. But
- 59:30Speaker 3: if we all travel around the country, and where you
- 59:33Speaker 3: see multi families at. You don't see them in the suburbs,
- 59:35Speaker 3: you don't see them in the good school districts, you
- 59:38Speaker 3: don't see them in where there's good stores and amenities
- 59:41Speaker 3: and things of that nature in the area. So most
- 59:43Speaker 3: folks who have children, especially young children, that want school districts,
- 59:48Speaker 3: They want to live in a single family home. They
- 59:50Speaker 3: want backyard and bar mitzvahs. They probably just can't afford
- 59:54Speaker 3: to buy right now, but they still want to live good. Right.
- 59:57Speaker 3: So America's institutional investors understand that this is why they're
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: doing more build to rent properties where they would build
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: these communities for single families, and traditionally they would sell
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: those and flip them now with rent at all time
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: high style one bedroom apartment is on average nationally two
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: thousand dollars a one bedroom apartment in New York right
- 1:00:21Speaker 3: now average is six thousand dollars. Right, look at what's
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: happened in New York. The empty office spaces are now
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: being converted to what apartments? Yeah, right, So investors, especially
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: institutional investors, are always going to find a way to
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: make money. So it's no right or wrong way, whether
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: single family or multi family, to me is no debate.
- 1:00:44Speaker 3: Right if you are there some areas where it might
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: be better to buy a single family and rentals. I
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: know a lot of investors that swear up and down
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: about single family rentals and won't touch a multi family
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: and vice versa, Like the Julian Gordons of the world.
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: They won't touch a single family. They want more family.
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: So I think it's really about picking your poison and
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: doing what works for you, not kind of following suit
- 1:01:07Speaker 3: with everyone else, and understanding your numbers and what your
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: ROI needs to be and they kind of moving on
- 1:01:12Speaker 3: from there.
- 1:01:13Speaker 6: Do you think that's where because I'm seeing a lot
- 1:01:15Speaker 6: of commercial real estate being vacant, you think that is
- 1:01:20Speaker 6: the way we're aheaded with this. Those commercial real estate
- 1:01:22Speaker 6: spaces will now become rental properties inside would be like
- 1:01:27Speaker 6: a conversion.
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: Oh absolutely. I mean when we was at lunch with
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: down people's we was having that conversation too, where conversions.
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: There's billions of dollars just in New York City right
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: now that's being flooded into the market in these office
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: retail spaces that are now because look look what happened
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: during the pandemic, companies people got to work from home.
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: Why do I need to pay one hundred thousand dollars
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: a month with that space? So what are the land
- 1:01:55Speaker 3: and those are rentals right, they're leasing. They're not owning
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: these skyscrapers in these buildings. So they rather pay the
- 1:02:02Speaker 3: penalties to get out, then they can deduct it anyway
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: off they taxes, so it's a whole place. So it
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: really doesn't If they are a profitable company and they
- 1:02:10Speaker 3: got a lot of money, it's not going to hurt
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: them to get out their leavest. But from the landlord perspective,
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: it's going to hurt me now because maybe I got
- 1:02:18Speaker 3: the penalties and all this upfront money, but now I
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: still got a vacant property, So why not convert it?
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: Because there's a housing crisis. I think America needs about
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: seven million homes right now to kind of balance out
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: the housing market. So why not where you have all
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: these cities and people now want the amenities, they want
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: downtown living, they want the New York City flair, so
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: to speak, in smaller towns and things of that nature.
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: So why not create loss? Why not can create one bedrooms,
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: two bedrooms in a downtown area, because now that's going
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: to command what more rent, So you'll find people that
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: will live in these as an apartment versus businesses that
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: probably can't afford to rent them.
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: So it's a play that's going on.
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: And there's billions of dollars that are being dumped into
- 1:03:10Speaker 3: converting office spaces into apartment So.
- 1:03:15Speaker 5: How do you get licensed to become a real to
- 1:03:17Speaker 5: a loan officer?
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: Good question, and I don't think we ever spoke about that.
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: So to get a real estate license, I think it's
- 1:03:26Speaker 3: it's cheap. It's a couple hundred dollars, right, a couple
- 1:03:29Speaker 3: hundred dollars investment. You need to take a seventy five
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: hour course, be over eighteen years old, pass a background check,
- 1:03:39Speaker 3: past the class. Once you pass the class, then you
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: have to submit for your license and for the state
- 1:03:44Speaker 3: that you're in, and then once you get approved, you
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: have to get sponsored by real estate brokerage and then
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: once you get sponsored, they issue your license, and then
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: today I'm a real to So you really can become
- 1:03:59Speaker 3: a real estate agent thirty days forty five days is
- 1:04:02Speaker 3: depending on where you're located, and it's only going to
- 1:04:05Speaker 3: cost you a couple hundred dollars to do, so it's
- 1:04:07Speaker 3: not an expensive investment. Now on the flip side, just
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: because your licensed real estate agent doesn't mean you're gonna
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: make no money. The average real estate agent probably does
- 1:04:16Speaker 3: one deal a year, if that right, So twenty percent
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: of the people and really to have a real estate
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: license are doing eighty percent of the business. And it's
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: like any sales profession. I'm pretty sure when you were
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: financial planning the numbers were pretty much the same. Even
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: on the loan office socide. It's the same thing. So
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: just because you got a license, it doesn't give you
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: a license to print money. You have to go out
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: there and you have tool network and you have to
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: really roll up your sleeves to get some business because
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: it's not easy at all. I think in New York Co.
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: Loan is over thirty thousand real estate active real estate licenses.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: Thirty thousand people are not closing deals. You know what
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: I'm saying, It's not happening, so, but it is. I
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: believe that if you are looking to get into real estate,
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: and if you don't have the capital to get into
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: real estate, go get licensed. It's not going to hurt you.
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: Because everybody knows somebody who needs to rent an apartment
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: or do something like that. You can. It's so many
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: different streams of income when you become a licensed realtor.
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: You can rent apartments, you can sell homes. You can
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: represent sellers, you can represent buyers, you can represent investors, developers.
- 1:05:21Speaker 3: You can property manage right. You can do BPOs broken
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: price opinions, which is basically appraisers right on behalf of
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: the banks. You can do short sale negotiations. You can
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: wholesale because in some states now they're requiring you to
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: have a real estate license to even whole sale properties. Right.
- 1:05:37Speaker 3: So there's many different avenues of making money. When you
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: have your real estate license. You just got to figure
- 1:05:43Speaker 3: out what's going to be your play and kind of
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: stick to it. Now. Also, to get your mL license.
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: To get become a licensed loan officer. Believe, you've got
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: to take like a twenty five hour class and tests,
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: and then when you pass that, you got to take
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: a federal exam. You pass the federal exam again, it's
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: a couple hundred dollars for a couple hundred dollars investment
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: to get licensed. Once you pass the federal exam, then
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: you submit to the state, you submit to NMLS. You
- 1:06:13Speaker 3: got to do your fingerprints, your background check. It's a
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: little bit more intense on my side because of the
- 1:06:18Speaker 3: wild cowboy days and the market crash, so they kind
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: of overregulated us. They blame us for everything, so we
- 1:06:24Speaker 3: got overregulated a little bit. So now once you get
- 1:06:27Speaker 3: your passed and then you have to get sponsored by
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: a mortgage company, but the same rules apply. It doesn't
- 1:06:33Speaker 3: mean you're going to make money, but both careers could
- 1:06:35Speaker 3: be six figure careers. Seven figure careers if you really
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: hit a lick and you really get a good referral
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: sources and you're out there putting in.
- 1:06:44Speaker 5: Your way and just a source of way to get information.
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: Most importantly right information and resources. Right now you have
- 1:06:52Speaker 3: a real estate license. Now you got access to MLS,
- 1:06:55Speaker 3: the multiple listing service. Now you see all the homes
- 1:06:58Speaker 3: that are being listed, you see who listening to homes.
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: You get access to the public records. You get to
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: learn how to navigate the systems. You get to learn
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: how to look for comparable sales right. So there's a
- 1:07:10Speaker 3: lot of knowledge that comes with this. And if you
- 1:07:12Speaker 3: get with the right brokerage, the right real estate brokerage
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: will always offer training. They will always have mortgage professionals
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: in their offices like me, training you on loan products.
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: They'll have title companies in your office. You'll learn so much.
- 1:07:24Speaker 3: So it's a great way to get started if you
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: want to be a real estate investor is to start
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: off by getting your license, earning some money. Now you
- 1:07:33Speaker 3: take your commissions, and now you start buying properties because
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: now you start learning all the players are, especially the
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: local players in your area. And now you can build
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: a referral worre. I know people who got their real
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: estate license, they don't sell the house at all. They
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: just a referral network. They're refer to agents all over
- 1:07:49Speaker 3: the country and they'll just get all the leads and
- 1:07:53Speaker 3: they'll make thirty three percent of that transaction. Right, So
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: that's also another play too, right, So there's a lot
- 1:08:00Speaker 3: that you can do with you have your real estate
- 1:08:02Speaker 3: license face BENGI.
- 1:08:04Speaker 6: I'm looking at you, man, and I remember you know
- 1:08:07Speaker 6: it was Marsha twenty nineteen when you sat down in
- 1:08:10Speaker 6: the dining room. And what I've seen, obviously very close
- 1:08:15Speaker 6: up is the growth obviously you in the real estate world,
- 1:08:18Speaker 6: obviously in the social media world as well. And I've
- 1:08:24Speaker 6: listened to you over and over and every time I
- 1:08:25Speaker 6: hear you, I feel like you're being more You're more
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: educated than the last time. Right, So it feels like
- 1:08:29Speaker 6: you're staying on top of the game. But I wonder, now,
- 1:08:32Speaker 6: as you look at it from where you stand, what's
- 1:08:35Speaker 6: a missing like, what's a missing link inside of real
- 1:08:38Speaker 6: estate that nobody has tried to solve or nobody has
- 1:08:42Speaker 6: found a solution for it just yet?
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: What's missing? I think representation matters in our in the
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: real estate world. There's not too many black real estate
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: mortgage broke riches, owners and banks mortgage banks out there.
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: Now.
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: When you're in cities like Atlanta or Houston where's predominantly black, yes,
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: you'll see more black real estate brokerages, more black mortgage
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: brokerages or mortgage banks. But when you're in the Northeast
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: East Coast, I mean, how many black mortgage company owners
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: do you guys know? I don't, I know, and I'm
- 1:09:21Speaker 3: in this business for twenty years and I probably say
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: I know two or three black people that own a
- 1:09:27Speaker 3: mortgage bank or mortgage brokerage. So for me, what's missing
- 1:09:31Speaker 3: in my career I've been doing this now twenty years
- 1:09:34Speaker 3: is ownership. Most people think I own a mortgage company,
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: but I don't. I just represent my team and I
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: represent my last name. So for me, my goals have shifted,
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: especially because of the past couple of years of what
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: we've all been through together as a unit with Euyle University.
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: We're doing events and traveling and now becoming an international speaker.
- 1:09:56Speaker 3: I'm going to definitely use that all the time now, Rashana,
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: thank you as you should. First he said I was
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: the authority of real estate, and I'm like, what Now
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: I believe them and I'm living that. But that's another story, y'all.
- 1:10:07Speaker 3: But ownership for me is what matters. So now I'm
- 1:10:12Speaker 3: in the process of getting my mortgage broker license to
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: open up my own mortgage company. Which I would turn
- 1:10:19Speaker 3: that into a mortgage bank and hopefully within the next
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: five years take that mortgage bank public and have a
- 1:10:26Speaker 3: couple billion dollar evaluation. So for me, what's missing in
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: my career right now is the representation of ownership. Because
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: it's great to sit out here and do content. It's
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: great out here to teach people and do loans for people,
- 1:10:38Speaker 3: But how do I bring up the next Who's next? Right,
- 1:10:42Speaker 3: who's the twenty year old MG, the mortgage guy who
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: might watch this and they might want to get into
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: the business, but they want to work for someone that
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: looks like them, that talks like them, that understands where
- 1:10:52Speaker 3: they come from. Right, That's where I want to do.
- 1:10:55Speaker 3: So it's easy for me now to hire people and
- 1:10:57Speaker 3: have them a part of my team. Right now, I
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: got to really do this for my last name, how
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: do I really leave the legacy of everything that I
- 1:11:05Speaker 3: work hard for? And that's really what ownership bro So yeah,
- 1:11:08Speaker 3: so galland Mortgage Group. Hopefully I can get that name
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: approved with the licensing and the FEDS and everything like
- 1:11:15Speaker 3: that coming soon. But that's my next step is ownership
- 1:11:19Speaker 3: and becoming one of the biggest black owned mortgage companies.
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: In the world.
- 1:11:26Speaker 5: You have it, ladies and gentlemen. One last thing before
- 1:11:28Speaker 5: you got USDA loans, that.
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: Brief USDA loans. Those are euro rural loans, right, so,
- 1:11:37Speaker 3: and believe it or not, there's a lot of rural
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: eras areas in America, right But it's again it's one
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: hundred percent finance and I believe the minimum credits care is.
- 1:11:45Speaker 5: Six twenty urban areas.
- 1:11:47Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, there's there's a lot of opportunity to use
- 1:11:50Speaker 3: these loans. And that's it's something that I don't speak
- 1:11:54Speaker 3: about a lot of at all because I don't do
- 1:11:56Speaker 3: too many of these loans. But it's a good program.
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: You can buy ten fifteen acre homes that are sitting
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: on these type of land where you cann't do that
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: with a conventional mortgage. You can get great low interest rates.
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: There are some of the programs have income restrictions on it,
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: so you kind of have to check and see what
- 1:12:16Speaker 3: if there are income restrictions for the areas that you're
- 1:12:18Speaker 3: looking to buy in. But ultimately it's a great loan
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: for someone who's looking to own a lot of land
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: and you can get one hundred percent finance and with low,
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: low interest rates. Yeah, so it's a great program. But
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say I hold you up. I don't
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: fund too many of these loans. I can, you know,
- 1:12:41Speaker 3: do a whole class on this at a later note.
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: But for this purposes, I would just say Google's your
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: best friend and kind of really look into it more.
- 1:12:49Speaker 3: Google's your friend, bro. Google's your best friend.
- 1:12:51Speaker 6: Bro.
- 1:12:52Speaker 5: You have it? So how can people contact you for

- 1:14:18Speaker 3: how do I reach more people? And that's where the
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: bookstore and putting out books came into place. So for me,
- 1:14:24Speaker 3: I don't want to. You know, most people they put

- 1:14:29Speaker 3: I can put out a book five times a year
