4w ago00:37:26Tap to summarizeClick Here for the Show Notes Part 2 of 7 Common Questions Asked of Our Investment Councilor covers the next wave of investor questions, focusing on markets, neighborhoods, property performance, management, financing, and post-purchase support. A key theme is that there’s no single “best” option—decisions depend on individual goals like cash flow versus appreciation. Investors often favor balanced, mid-range neighborhoods, but success ultimately comes down to understanding market dynamics, numbers, and strategy. As discussions get more detailed, attention shifts to ROI, cash flow, management quality, and financing options. After closing, many investors also seek ongoing guidance, highlighting the value of staying connected with an advisor. Overall, Part 2 emphasizes aligning goals with the right strategy and support system rather than chasing a one-size-fits-all investment. -------------------------------- Throwback Thursday Episode (The episode originally took place in the year 2021) This episode is part of our Throwback Series and may include references to older content such as web classes, events, promotions, or links that are no longer active or available.

Apr 1600:44:16Tap to summarizeClick Here for the Show Notes This episode dives into the journey of a real estate investor turned financial strategist who transformed a powerful concept into a practical system for investors. Inspired early on by Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, the guest built a thriving real estate career—only to discover that high deal volume doesn’t always mean real profit. After experiencing the “real estate rat race” firsthand, he adopted and adapted the principles from Profit First into a framework specifically for real estate investors. By flipping the traditional formula from “sales minus expenses equals profit” to “sales minus profit equals expenses,” he introduces a mindset and system that prioritizes paying yourself first, building true cash profitability, and creating clarity through structured money management. Whether active or passive, investors can break free from financial chaos, gain control over their cash flow, and finally align their business with the life they set out to build. Start simple—open one separate “profit” account today and begin setting aside even just 1% of your income.

Apr 700:40:43Tap to summarizeClick Here for the Show Notes Adam shares how he went from a client seeking passive income to a wealth coach helping others build scalable cash flow through the Tardus Income Snowball strategy. By consistently investing and reinvesting cash flow into amortized, income-generating opportunities, clients can rapidly grow monthly passive income while increasing their ability to invest in assets like real estate. Real examples show individuals generating hundreds per month within months and projecting thousands within a few years—all while accelerating major financial goals like buying multiple properties or funding college. The system is designed to be simple, time-efficient, and coach-supported, but success depends on consistent execution and staying engaged.

Transcribe →TBT: Is It Wise to Buy Real Estate When Interest Rates are Rising?
Apr 200:27:51Tap to summarizeClick Here for the Show Notes In this episode, we tackle a timely question from a listener: is it still wise to invest in real estate while interest rates are rising? The key takeaway is that rising rates alone shouldn’t deter you—what matters most is whether the deal itself makes financial sense. While borrowing costs have increased, today’s mortgage rates remain below long-term historical averages, and real estate continues to be a reliable wealth-building asset over time. The focus should always be on fundamentals: choosing the right market, evaluating the property’s condition, ensuring the numbers work, and surrounding yourself with the right team. Real estate is a long-term investment—early cash flow may be tighter, but rents and property values tend to increase, and refinancing later can improve returns. Plus, higher rates often push more people into renting, increasing demand for well-positioned investment properties. Ultimately, it’s not about timing the market, but about being prepared and acting when the right opportunity comes along.
