The Total Wealth Academy Podcast

Welcome back to the show! In this episode, Steve discusses financial IQ and how people miss many opportunities to invest in real estate because of mistaken beliefs. Many believe that the only way to purchase an investment home is to use conventional lending methods, and when they start crunching the numbers for that method, they get discouraged. That is why Steve brought Darel Daik onto the show today, and they will discuss how people with a high financial IQ can invest in rental properties for much less!

If you are one of those people and you want to learn more about how it works, this is the show for you!

Welcome back to the show! In this episode, Steve discusses almost everything this is to discuss real estate rehabs with Mark Bouknight of Gulf Coast Builds. It is an iron-clad law in real estate investing that your property will need some rehab. It might need it after a significant natural event, or the property may require a massive makeover before you can put a family into it. Rehab in real estate investing is necessary. So, who can you go to, and what should you get done? Steve is talking with Mark Bouknight from Gulf Coast Builds about just that!
