On this episode of the show, I give sound advice on what to do in uncertain and volatile times. 2023 is certain to be one of the roughest years in over a decade for investors, and if you’re not careful, you can lose your investment. This episode wil give you 5 strategies to use to make the best decisions in times like these.    Watch the video to hear these tips, which will how you how to make decisions in a rational manner based on experience, rather than make decisions based on panic and FOMO. Although the market is volatile now, real estate investing is one of the best long-term investments you can make, and this guide will help you keep that investment and be profitable in the long term.

If you saw the last episode of The Heartland Multifamily Show, I listed three possible downsides each to commercial and multifamily property ownership. This is part two, where I list the three best upsides to investing in either commercial or multifamily property.  Commercial real estate is a long buildup, followed by steady and predictable income. Multifamily real estate is easier to get into, but requires more work and has more variables that you can’t control. One is not necessarily better or worse than the other, but you have to decide where to spend your money, time, and energy to get the best return. 

This is the battle episode: Commercial property or multifamily property. This episode is part 1 of 2. In this episode, I will give three negatives each about multifamily and commercial properties that will make it harder to make a profit by investing in this kind of property. The point is not to dissuade you from investing in either, but so that you can better understand what you will be dealing with should you decide to invest in real estate. You can use this as a guide to help you decide to invest.

This episode of the podcast will save you from being scammed. In this episode, I will give you three red flags to look out for when an investor who wants to partner with you is BS-ing you. There is a lot of BS in the world of investing. Many people want to make an easy buck, and an easy buck is pretty much impossible; every dollar takes hard work to earn. But a lot of bad people out there are happy to separate fools from their money. This episode will help you identify the three biggest red flags that you should watch out for.

No matter how involved you are in multi-family investing, whether you are just considering investing or are a seasoned investor with many properties, this guide will help you grow and scale your investment.    There is no shortage of books, podcasts, newsletters, and so on that show you how best to lead a team of employees. This could have been 3,000 tips. When I sit down and talk to other multifamily investors and owners, these 3 items are the ones that come up the most.   Watch this video to learn the three biggest tips, one that took me 30 years in this business to figure out, and you can have a shorter and more profitable path to multifamily investment.

This episode of Darin Garmin’s Heartland Multi-Family Show is about the R word. Not recession - REGRET! I have talked to many investors who have admitted they screwed up and have regrets about how they chose to invest their money in Multifamily properties.This episode is all about the three biggest mistakes multifamily property investors make, and how you can avoid them when you invest. Multifamily property is a great way to invest, but as with every investment, there are risks. Often the risks with multifamily investments turn out to be not that you lose, but that you didn’t make more money by being smart about your investments, especially the first one. If you watch this video and take my advice, you will be a successful investor sooner.

On Episode 4 of the Heartland Multi Family Property Show, I share 3 key strategies to find the perfect multi family property. These strategies are easy, but you only will get results if you do them all, do them together, and do them consistently. The 3 strategies are: Contact the owners of properties that you like, contact real estate agents that specialize in multiple properties, and contact property management companies that you’d like to work with. And remember that you will not usually get results the first time, you have to consistently put yourself out there. Do these 3 things and you can find a suitable multi family home to invest in.

On this episode of the Heartland Multifamily Show, I give 3 gold nuggets of advice that will make the difference between striking gold and striking out. It can take a lot of money to invest in a multi-family property, but there is also a lot of money to be made, if you do your diligence. The first thing you have to do is find properties that already have a long-term owner willing to sell to you. Second, find ways to realistically raise the rents on your tenants. And third, find ways to cut costs. Often, property owners are leaving money on the table, if you invest properly, you can take that money that they’re leaving behind.

1- MFA (Multi-Family Assessment) which consists of budget review, cut the fat, and have cash 2- CEM (Culture, Energy, Manifesto) 3- Get aggressive 4- Invest in yourself 5 - Deal with reality, but don’t get distracted   Listen this video to learn exactly what I mean by these terms, and how you can be ready when the opportunity comes that other people can’t take advantage of.

Welcome to the debut episode of The Heartland Multi-Family show. In this show, I will show you how to invest in a multifamily property. This episode will focus on the three most important questions you have to know the answer to before you invest a single dollar. 1, Are you going to be a passive investor or an active one? There is no wrong answer. You can be a boots-on-the-ground investor and be in the thick of it, or you can delegate most of the work, and just sit back and collect passive income. 2, Will this property be profitable in 5-10 years. You will have to imagine yourself buying this property in 5 years, and would you buy it again or not? If the answer is no, then you might be a trouble because any potential investor who might buy it from you will think twice. The 3rd question is what will the cash flow look like throughout the life of the property? How much is the income and how much are the expenses? If you can answer these questions, you can properly calculate the numbers you can predict you will make on your investment property. Remember, of course, that any investment can lose money no matter how careful you are. Watch this episode to get your next investment of a multifamily home off to a great start.
