![]() Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from Episode #242, which originally aired on August 13, 2019. In this episode of the Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow podcast, Kevin talks to real estate and note investment expert, Jim Maffuccio. Jim is co-founder and CIO of Aspen funds, an investment fund that provides returns without the volatility of traditional investment options. He is a 30 year old real estate veteran and deeply networked in the secondary mortgage industry. In the podcast, Jim covers how he bounced from the recession and got into the note business. He talks about secondary mortgages and the profit strategies he and his team employ when capitalizing on note investments. He explains the process of restructuring distressed debt to benefit investors. Kevin and Jim also discuss the dynamics of working remotely and having a headquarters for business. QUOTES: “Aspen Funds was started in 2012, really kind of born out of the adversity and the lessons that I learned in what debt can do to you if you’re a small developer, a small fish in a big pond. So that’s what launched me into the mortgage space.” “If you’re gonna buy one offs, you can be picky about what you buy in terms of the equity profile of the deal that you’re buying. At our scale, we have to be ready to pretty much buy everything..” ‘We’re at about 65% of the time, we are able to modify the loan, keep the loan, get it re-performing and sell it to an income fund or another cash flow buyer. Another 10 or 15% of the time we actually get a settlement..” “We’ve seen the quantity of deal flow has definitely diminished in the residential mortgage space in general. Most of that is first leads where most of the players have been, and margins have shrunk as price points have increased for mortgages in general.” “If 10% of our loans, at any given time, stop paying, all the metrics of our fund are set up such that the fund investors don’t miss a blip and our management don’t miss a blip. We have that built into our pricing model.” HIGHLIGHTS: 8:13 Jim’s background and how he co-founded Aspen Funds 14:11 Buying and selling real estate notes 18:41 Different investor profiles 21:10 What would be an ideal loan acquisition? 27:44 How the landscape changed since the crash 34:25 Business and management structure at Aspen Recommended Resources:

Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from Episode #237, which originally aired on July 9, 2019. In this episode of the Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow Podcast, Kevin talks to real estate expert Ian Formigle. Ian is the vice president of investments at CrowdStreet, an online commercial real estate platform that helps diversify portfolios with institutional-quality, expertly reviewed, commercial real estate investments. He is also the author of the book “A Comprehensive Guide to Real Estate Investing”. In this podcast, Ian shares how he got into the business as a multi family home investor. He talks about the 2008 financial crisis and gives some insights into what could have been done better. Ian explains what they do at CrowdStreet and breaks down the process of how they connect and work with sponsors and investors. He also differentiates between three ways investors can invest through CrowdStreet. QUOTES: “Just because something is going better than you think it could go, well maybe you should ask yourself what’s going on there because probably it’s unsustainable.” “For every one hundred potential deals that show up on our doorstep, five of them actually make it onto the market place.” “If we’re going to be in a deal, there has to be a relevancy there, nobody’s doing this for fun, we’re doing it because there is a product market fit between sponsor and investor at the end of the day.” “So what we do is we give investors good tools to analyze and track their portfolio in their own dashboard and so that’s what the investors look in for, and so we are the communication infrastructure…” “These days, we’re finding that the typical sponsor on the market place has started on average to over two billion dollar worth of deals, has been in multiple markets and has ten plus years of operating experience in the entity level.”

In this episode of the Real Estate Investing for Cashflow podcast, Kevin, along with his business partner at Sunrise Capital, Brian Spear, talk cost segregation with Kimberly Lochridge. Kimberly is the Executive Vice President for Engineered Tax Services, Inc. (ETS), an industry-leading provider of specialty tax services in the United States. Kimberly’s business management skills have positioned her as a big-league tax expert for Fortune 500, ultra-high net worth individuals, single and multiple family offices, architects, engineers, and CPAs nationwide. In this informative conversation, Kimberly explains what cost segregation is and how it can help businesses. She also answers frequently asked questions asked by Brian to separate fact from myth surrounding cost segregation. The guests also present and discuss a case study to further shed light on how cost segregation works and tackle other topics pertinent to this business practice. “The difference between the 1040 and a 1040 EV is that the EV is the straight line or what you call the standard deductions and your 1040 is the itemized deductions, well, cost segregation is the 1040 for real estate..” “Essentially when you sell a building, you’re taking what you sold it for minus whatever the purchase price was, which is your gain, but you also have to add in to that gain your accumulated depreciation.” “There are different types of cost segregation studies and as you dig into this, you’ll have engineered based cost segregation and that’s where we actually rebuild the property from the ground up.” “I think of the CPA as the family practice doctor and EPS is the brain surgeon.” “When working with a third party property management company, you need to ensure that they have the information at the ready so that when they do those capital expenditures and do those capital improvements on your behalf, they’re actually handling the depreciation appropriately.”

Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from Episode #219, which originally aired on March 5, 2019. Today's episode of The Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow Podcast features real estate investment expert and serial entrepreneur, Victor Menasce. Victor held senior roles at several firms in the high tech industry for 25 years before deciding to become full time with real estate 9 years ago. He has since touched on ground up RV communities, multi-family and residential developments, and much more. Today he sheds light on a particularly unglamorous side of the business: rough patches and how he was able to weather them out to still achieve success. Quotes: "I wasted a lot of time and probably wasted a lot of money basically going back and entering that business from the bottom of the business as opposed to coming into that business from the top of the business." "One of the perspectives that I always take when it comes to real estate projects is to make sure that those projects have enough margin to be resilient." "The key in the success for any active business is the team." "You want to make sure that if there is strong demand that there is some kind of constraint on the supply side." "The number one mistake I see a lot if investors make is that they are starting projects that are too small and one of the consequences of that is that you can't afford the skills that you need to properly fill out your team."
