Creating Opportunities for a Better Future

Last week I wrote about reflecting on the past and preparing for the future. Have you had a chance to think about it much? I realize that the holiday season is a busy time for many of us, even if it may look a bit different this year without the events and big get-togethers that we are accustomed to.

 

But time continues on despite everything going on in our lives, even seemingly quicker this time of year, and here we are already a few days into the last month of 2020.

It may seem that not much will change when we go from 12/31/2020 to 1/1/2021 but in reality, there is a world of opportunity for change within you.

 

 

The new year is the perfect time to make the commitment to yourself to reach your goals. Think about one thing you would like to accomplish in the next 6 months and make it your priority. Wake up every morning and affirm how important it is to you, and remind yourself that not accomplishing it is not an option. Affirm that you will do everything necessary that day to accomplish your goal.

 

What if one of your goals is to increase your real estate portfolio?

What’s the best move, what type of real estate is best? Where should you invest? With whom should you invest?

All great questions. We have been navigating interesting times, which will surely continue into the new year.

But there are a lot of people putting a great deal of thought into what’s on the horizon.

 

I pay attention to people who are not trying to sell me something, people who do A LOT of research and share it with me to let me make my own decisions. Two people that I listen to are Kathy Fettke of Real Wealth Network and Dave Stech of Purpose Built Investments. Both are sharing research which suggests that there is a better than average chance of single family homes being the ‘place to be’ for the near future.

Take a look at Kathy’s Housing Market Predictions and Dave’s State of the Union for Real Estate and Private Lending on MC Laubscher’s Cash Flow Ninja podcast.

Dave and his sons Josh and Blake, along with an amazing team, put together a group called ACCESS insiders. It’s an invitation only group that I had the honor of being asked to join earlier this year. It’s been an invaluable experience and I have learned so much.

After you explore the articles and video, if being introduced to ACCESS is of interest to you, schedule a call and I will introduce you. Think back to your 6-month goal. Perhaps this opportunity aligns and can help you reach it. Even if you decide the group is not for you, Dave is a great guy to know.

Until next time, be well and enjoy the season.

ICYMI: Money Tales: Money’s Everywhere with Dr. Felecia Froe

In this ICYMI conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Sandi Bragar and Cammie Doder on the Money Tales podcast to trace the money narrative that shaped her from childhood all the way to founding Money With Mission. She opens up about watching her mother stay in a domestic violence relationship for financial reasons, the credit card mistakes she made in medical school, and how she used the CASHFLOW 101 game to teach her own daughters about money years before most parents even start the conversation. Felecia also walks through the deal that changed everything: a patient named Jamie who challenged her to buy her first real estate property and removed all the risk in doing so.

Foundations #10: You’re Not Bad with Money

You’re not bad with money. In this Foundations episode, Dr. Felecia Froe speaks directly to every woman carrying the belief that she’s somehow failed at money, whether she’s avoided her finances for years, watched a high income never translate into confidence, or is still making sense of a setback that shook her trust in herself. Felecia reframes the whole story: what looks like carelessness is actually overwhelm, what looks like incapability is actually a lack of preparation, and what looks like personal failure is actually a systemic failure.

ICYMI: How to Invest When You’re Scared (Because Everyone Is) with Dr. Felecia Froe

Felecia Froe became a urologic surgeon after succeeding in medical school and urology residency. Somehow she knew this wasn’t the last thing she would ever do. Her mind as rewired about the idea of money after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kyosaki. In this ICYMI conversation with Mary Katherine Johnson of Planet Wealth, Felecia traces her path buying 18 properties in two years, losing nearly everything in the 2008 crash, and rebuilding into a social impact investor who’s now running sober living homes and fighting food deserts. She gets honest about the fear that doesn’t fully go away, even after decades of deals, the mindset shift from working for money to making money work for you, and why she believes no woman should ever feel financially stuck in a job or relationship.
