Is it Wrong to Make Low Offers? Interview w/ Brian Ellwood
06/10/19 • 68 min
#43: Brian Ellwood is a former wholesaler who was able to retire from the working world at the age of 30 by accumulating several dozen properties. Now days, his greatest passion is to help others do the same.
(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/43)
Brian’s initial area of expertise in real estate was mostly in wholesaling houses, fix and flips and buy and hold investments... however, he chose to steer the ship more in the direction of buying more long-term buy and hold properties, so he could generate enough passive income to cover his bills and spend his time doing what he really enjoys.
In this interview, we’re going to talk about how Brian was able to build and grow this kind of business, his philosophy and approach to real estate investing, and we’re also going to talk about a CRAZY experience he had a few years back with the local media, how it really took a toll on him mentally and professionally, and how he managed to take a really difficult experience and turn it into an asset for his business.

Why "Passive Income" From Rental Properties is a Lie - Interview w/ Tom Krol
#42: Tom Krol is the Founder of Wholesaling Inc and PSL Homebuyers, and he runs one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes.
(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/42)
Tom has bought and sold hundreds of properties across the country and has taught a lot of aspiring real estate investors how to do the same.
Tom and I recently got acquainted over the phone, and he was telling me he had come to the conclusion that "passive income" from rental properties is a total farce. He thought there was a much more effective way to build real passive income, and it involves wholesaling houses with a unique approach of selling off properties with seller financing.
There are a ton of advantages that enter the picture when you work this way (which we’ll cover in a lot more detail in this interview), and I was struck by how many similarities there were between his approach and the approach of buying land at a super cheap price and selling it with seller financing.
This is one of those strategies I’ve heard about from a number of people, so I’m really excited to dig into the details of how Tom has put this into practice. Hopefully, you’ll walk away with some ideas you can apply in your own business.

How to Go from Zero to Rockstar as a Land Investor - Interview w/ Mike Ferreira
#44: In this episode, I talk with a land flipping aficionado who has been VERY active in the land business.
(Show Notes: https://REtipster.com/44)
I refer to him as “aficionado” because he has taken his land business to a place that most people never reach. He is buying and selling land as his full-time gig and he’s currently selling around 15-20 deals per month... just to give you an idea for the scale he’s at.
The guy I’m talking about is Mike Ferreira, and he’s got a really interesting story.
Mike is someone who sells A LOT of his properties on terms (with seller financing) and he’s also had the benefit of going through ALL of the land investing courses on the market today (including the REtipster Club) - which means he’s been able to see all the similarities and differences between the various ideologies out there, and he’s been able to pick and choose which pieces to apply to his business and make it his own.
There’s a lot more I can say about Mike - but if you listen in, you'll get a much better look at how his business works.
