Host

Welcome to the Master Passive Income Show.

Dustin Heiner

This is Dustin Heiner, and I'm here to help you create wealth, afford anything you want in life by investing in real estate and achieve financial freedom.

Dustin Heiner

And in today's show, we're going to be talking to a fantastic student of Master Passive Income who has in two months, bought three properties, and she is growing and scaling even more.

Dustin Heiner

And we're going to show you how she did it and how you can do it as well.

Host

All right, let's start the show.

Intro Narrator

Welcome to the Master Passive Income Podcast where we talk about investing in real estate with a special focus on making enough money to so you can quit your job and live the dream life.

Intro Narrator

And now here is your host, Dustin Heiner.

Host

What's up?

Host

Super blessed as always to have you here with me on the show.

Dustin Heiner

Now, I got some amazing things to tell you, especially if you want to make money investing in real estate, if you want to create wealth.

Dustin Heiner

There are some amazing things going on that I'm seeing in the economy since we last aired the last show.

Dustin Heiner

We know that Trump won.

Dustin Heiner

We know that Trump won.

Dustin Heiner

And the day after Trump won, things started happening.

Dustin Heiner

He's not even stepped in as president yet.

Dustin Heiner

The stock market took off like it.

Host

Just went so high.

Dustin Heiner

And it's making money.

Dustin Heiner

Bitcoin is literally at $88,000 per bitcoin it's taken.

Dustin Heiner

I mean, that thing gone up like 30% since Trump's got an office or, you know, got elected a week ago.

Dustin Heiner

And what I'm seeing is the economy and the real estate market getting so much more perfect for real estate investors.

Dustin Heiner

And here's a two.

Dustin Heiner

Two things that are literally going on.

Dustin Heiner

You guys know I'm a real estate investor.

Dustin Heiner

I've been investing since 2006.

Dustin Heiner

And right now, two things are going on.

Dustin Heiner

That's really amazing.

Dustin Heiner

One, if you remember, last couple weeks, I've been sharing that I moved my family from Arizona to Tennessee, and I left my property in Phoenix as a midterm property.

Dustin Heiner

Got it all furnished, actually got it rented for three months on Airbnb.

Dustin Heiner

It was terrific.

Dustin Heiner

Got really, really good money.

Dustin Heiner

Instead of $2,100 a month, it was what I would get long term.

Dustin Heiner

I'm getting $3,500 a month, and they rented it for three months.

Dustin Heiner

Then I reached out to the tenant and I said, hey, I'm looking at other people right now wanting to have the Property in starting February 1st and on.

Dustin Heiner

Are you guys wanting the place to continue on Because I want to give you the first rider refusal.

Dustin Heiner

Basically if you want to stay, they replied back, hey, give me a call.

Dustin Heiner

So I gave them a call.

Dustin Heiner

Apparently it's a company, this company based out of Texas, but they work in Arizona and they need long term housing but furnished long term housing.

Dustin Heiner

So we're doing a one year midterm property lease.

Dustin Heiner

Basically it's the same property.

Dustin Heiner

All I do is I have it furnished and I pay for the electricity, sewer, Internet things, you know, like normal things.

Dustin Heiner

And they rent it out and they're renting out for $3,500 a month for an entire year.

Dustin Heiner

And he said even in March and April it might not even be rented.

Dustin Heiner

They might not even have anybody in there because you know they as gap in the jobs.

Dustin Heiner

But I have it a long term tenant for an entire year, midterm wise.

Dustin Heiner

So I'm going to give them a lease.

Dustin Heiner

They're going to be paying ACH directly to me or if I get a property management company, they'll take care of that.

Dustin Heiner

But more than likely I'm not going need that.

Dustin Heiner

And I'm going to be renting it for $3,500 a month.

Dustin Heiner

Now with the midterm I'm going to have more expenses, lawn care, Internet, I.

Host

Got to pay for water, sewer and things like that.

Dustin Heiner

But that's probably going to be about five to six hundred dollars a month.

Dustin Heiner

And in the winter months electricity is so low it's like 100 bucks.

Dustin Heiner

So I even told them, hey, if you go above 350amonth in electricity because let's say you just keep running it for, you know, hours after hours at 70 degrees, then if it's over 350 bucks, you're going to pay the difference.

Dustin Heiner

He agreed to that.

Dustin Heiner

So that's awesome.

Dustin Heiner

Midterm rentals are amazing.

Host

I really, really like short term, but.

Dustin Heiner

Man, the wear and tear on your properties is pretty rough.

Dustin Heiner

Midterms are great now that's one.

Dustin Heiner

So midterms are taking off.

Dustin Heiner

And if you're doing midterms where you're renting per room, that is going very, very well too.

Dustin Heiner

Lots of my students are doing renting a per room.

Dustin Heiner

But here's another great thing.

Dustin Heiner

I have another property I might be getting under contract.

Dustin Heiner

It is a multifamily property, 70 units, Class A in Columbus, Ohio.

Dustin Heiner

And the sellers, they built it in 2001 for $19 million.

Dustin Heiner

And they're having to sell it very.

Host

Very fast because well, what the words.

Dustin Heiner

Actually that they used was they're a bigger Fish to fry.

Dustin Heiner

And they need to get it off their balance sheet or off their books.

Dustin Heiner

Basically.

Dustin Heiner

They need to sell it for some other reason, which is great for us.

Dustin Heiner

It's a fantastic property.

Dustin Heiner

We're looking at buying it for about 10 million, a little over 10 million when they built it for 19 million.

Dustin Heiner

And I'm seeing so many commercial deals that are going to.

Dustin Heiner

They're here, but it's going to get even better and better and better.

Dustin Heiner

People are distressed.

Dustin Heiner

Our companies are distressed sellers now, which is so good for us.

Dustin Heiner

So on top of buying it almost half off from what the they actually built it for, the rents are dramatically lower, about 4 to 600 doll lower per unit.

Dustin Heiner

Now, I don't think we'll be able to get that same comparable rent as other apartment complexes, but we're at least going to be able to rent two, maybe $300 more per month on every single one of these properties.

Dustin Heiner

So that increases our income, the expenses.

Dustin Heiner

We can also decrease the income or decrease the expenses.

Host

Sorry.

Dustin Heiner

We can increase the income, decrease the expenses.

Dustin Heiner

And there's also a moratorium for another, I think, 11 years so that the taxes will not go up in value.

Dustin Heiner

Like the assessed value is not going to go up, which means we're not going to pay any more than taxes that we are now.

Dustin Heiner

That's a huge value that's going to benefit us.

Dustin Heiner

So many other great things.

Dustin Heiner

But we're looking at picking this property up.

Dustin Heiner

And again, just like the COVID where it's doing terrific.

Dustin Heiner

We just gave out our first distributions last month.

Dustin Heiner

It's looking awesome.

Dustin Heiner

We have another deal.

Dustin Heiner

This deal could potentially be even better than the COVID deal.

Dustin Heiner

Like, I'm super excited about these deals coming out.

Dustin Heiner

Well, if you want to invest with me in my deals or you want me to reach out to you when I get amazing deals like this, that.

Dustin Heiner

And you guys know I'm not a syndicator.

Dustin Heiner

I'm just an investor that if I can't use my money, meaning if I don't have enough money to buy this property, we're going to be raising $3.8 million to buy this property.

Dustin Heiner

And with that money being raised, we have to have investors.

Dustin Heiner

So if you want to invest with me in one of my own personal deals, this is going to be a master passive income deal that me and the other coaches here at Master Passive Income are pulling together and sourcing and all that good stuff.

Dustin Heiner

If you want to invest with us in our own personal deals, then go to masterpassiveincome.com invest.

Dustin Heiner

It'll be in the link in the description.

Dustin Heiner

But masterpassiveincome.com investor and I will reach out to you personally to chat with you about potentially investing in this deal.

Dustin Heiner

It's $50,000, the minimum that you can invest in.

Dustin Heiner

And remember, on the investor success roadmap that we have at Master Passive Income, we start with smaller properties and then we get to medium sized properties and then we get to large properties as we grow and scale.

Dustin Heiner

The beginner's median is a small one.

Dustin Heiner

The business owner, the scalar stage, that's the medium size.

Dustin Heiner

And then when you're an expert investor, that's when you get to this larger deals like I'm putting together and allowing other people to invest with us and they're going to get a fantastic return.

Dustin Heiner

So if you want to know more about this.

Dustin Heiner

Well, I'll say one thing.

Dustin Heiner

I haven't actually locked down this property under contract because I just want to see if there's anybody else that would want to invest with me.

Host

I use full transparency.

Dustin Heiner

I don't have $3.8 million for, for the down payment.

Dustin Heiner

But if you want to jump in with me, then you're going to be an investor and you're going to be getting a fantastic return.

Dustin Heiner

We're still working out all those numbers, but if you want to know more about it, go to masterpassiveincome.com invest and be on the lookout for more investment opportunities.

Dustin Heiner

And honestly, that's the reason why I have Master Passive Income is to share with you so that you can learn that you can grow in your investing and scale your investing business and be super, super successful, just like the person I'm interviewing today.

Dustin Heiner

Now this lady, she came to Master Passive Income, found us through the podcast, started doing the membership where that's the basically the tribe.

Dustin Heiner

It's all of our members that are a part of it that are growing through the group coaching courses and everything.

Dustin Heiner

And we get so much success in that.

Dustin Heiner

And she realized that she wanted to move faster and she says this in the interview, she said she wanted to move faster and fast track her success and minimize her expenses.

Dustin Heiner

And she started doing the one on one coaching with Charles Rose Jr.

Dustin Heiner

We have actually three different coaches here at Master Passive Income and I do the group coaching.

Dustin Heiner

And so if you get the one on one coaching with one of the coaches, it's the fast track.

Dustin Heiner

They literally help you go through every single step of the process.

Host

You do all the work, don't get.

Dustin Heiner

Me wrong, you do all the work.

Dustin Heiner

But they, the coaches are There to help you step over landmines, you know, make money, save money, negotiate everything like that.

Dustin Heiner

And then you also have me and the group coaching if you want to do the one on one coaching.

Dustin Heiner

Now, I want to share with you this amazing success story that she, one of our Master Passive Income students, in two months has already had three properties.

Dustin Heiner

And getting that first property was hard.

Dustin Heiner

And she'll explain that.

Dustin Heiner

But after that, because she built the business like we do at Master Passive Income, oh my goodness, she's off to the races and she's doing so much better.

Dustin Heiner

I have my student Theresa Muzny on the show with me.

Dustin Heiner

All right, here we go.

Host

Teresa, so great to have you with us.

Teresa Muzny

Thank you, Dustin.

Teresa Muzny

It's.

Teresa Muzny

It's a great honor to be here.

Teresa Muzny

I'm excited and I feel blessed.

Host

This is terrific.

Host

Now how did you find Master Passive Income?

Host

How'd you find me?

Host

And then, you know, obviously we started coaching and everything like that, but how did you find us?

Teresa Muzny

So basically I was just looking for a passive income.

Teresa Muzny

I'm browsing on the podcast and I saw your podcast.

Teresa Muzny

It looks very interesting.

Teresa Muzny

I really have no background whatsoever with real estate.

Teresa Muzny

What more with the out of state investor?

Teresa Muzny

So when I was listening to it, I bought your books, I subscribed, and then I was listening to the podcast.

Teresa Muzny

I was so inspired.

Teresa Muzny

And then when I was almost over, I did the one on one coaching with Charles.

Teresa Muzny

He's amazing.

Teresa Muzny

And that actually fast tracked my business.

Teresa Muzny

And that was one of the best decision I've ever made in my life too.

Host

I love it.

Host

And a lot of people find us through the podcast, which is just tremendous way to reach people and just to help coach people.

Host

And you're 100% right.

Host

Like we have courses that people can just get the course so they can just listen to podcasts and learn.

Host

And we also even have group coaching where it's.

Host

You don't have one on one coaching, but you get group coaching where you have access to me and the other coaches.

Host

But the one on one coaching is such an amazing fast track because they literally get you over hurdles and help you to negotiate all that great stuff.

Host

Now tell me about your first property and all about from like what you where it's located, how much did you buy it for?

Host

What's the passive income like?

Teresa Muzny

So my first property, they all say it's the most difficult one, but I would say this, it's a roller coaster ride really.

Teresa Muzny

So during on the podcast, on the course, you told us like to set up the business first, which I did.

Teresa Muzny

So before looking for property, I looked for a good property manager, lender, agent, contractor.

Teresa Muzny

Once my group was set, I was able to find a property.

Teresa Muzny

So the property, the asking was 95,000.

Teresa Muzny

And since I was practicing a lot on putting the numbers correctly to make.

Teresa Muzny

Make sure that I have a cash flow.

Teresa Muzny

So I put an offer up for 85,000, and they counter for 88,000.

Host

That's awesome.

Host

And so did you accept that offer?

Host

The counter?

Teresa Muzny

I did accept that offer because my property manager said we have to do an inspection and we can still reduce that price, which we did.

Teresa Muzny

After the inspection, we put it down.

Teresa Muzny

It brought.

Teresa Muzny

It was down to 4,000.

Teresa Muzny

So we purchased the property to 84,000.

Teresa Muzny

It already have a tenant, so we did not have to do renovation.

Teresa Muzny

And it was cash flowing for $330 a month.

Teresa Muzny

Yes.

Host

Wow.

Host

So you got even more money off.

Host

And so you said you closed for 80 or after everything.

Host

84,000.

Host

They were asking 95.

Teresa Muzny

They were asking for 95, and we got it for 84,000.

Teresa Muzny

Wow.

Host

And so that's $11,000 that you save.

Host

Put it back in your pocket, and then it's already cash flowing.

Host

What area of the country or what city is it in?

Teresa Muzny

It's in Memphis, Tennessee.

Teresa Muzny

Memphis is great.

Teresa Muzny

It's a hot market right now.

Host

Oh, it sure is.

Host

It sure is.

Host

Now, was it hard to get that first property and getting financing?

Host

Because everybody always thinks, oh, man, it's so hard to find properties.

Host

It's so hard to get money for properties Now.

Host

A lot of.

Host

A lot of things happen when you don't know what you're doing and you don't have somebody educating you on how to do it.

Host

It makes it really, really hard.

Host

But when you have somebody helping you, it makes it easier.

Host

But we getting this first property, was it a big hurdle to get over?

Host

And then that second property, how quickly that second property come?

Teresa Muzny

So this.

Teresa Muzny

So the second I closed on the first property May 28, and after two weeks, I close on the second one.

Teresa Muzny

But a backstory about that one.

Teresa Muzny

So I guess because I.

Teresa Muzny

Because of master passive income, I set up my business correctly.

Teresa Muzny

I have a great property manager, which I interview.

Teresa Muzny

I also have a great lender, which is advising me what to do, a great coach, which is Charles, and that he helped me tremendously.

Teresa Muzny

So I know it's so hard to jump in and make that offer for the first property, But I was very certain that I have the correct.

Teresa Muzny

I have the right group and I have the right area.

Teresa Muzny

That's why I was able to confidently send an offer to that property.

Host

And I want to pause for a quick second and share that.

Host

Honestly, I really want you to invest in real estate.

Host

Now.

Host

My new goal is to help 1 million people invest in real estate.

Host

So two things I would ask from you.

Host

Number one, if you get anything out of this episode, please share it with somebody else.

Host

Just say, hey, you know, check out Dustin and Master passive income.

Host

He really wants to help a million people to invest in real estate.

Host

That's number one.

Dustin Heiner

Number two, I want to get you.

Host

To invest in real estate.

Host

Get my real estate investing course absolutely for free.

Host

Text the word rental R E N T A L 233777 rental to 33777.

Dustin Heiner

I'll literally give you my course, show.

Host

You how to find the area of the country to invest, how to build the business first.

Host

You know, I always talk about that.

Dustin Heiner

And how to find the right properties.

Host

How to make sure you're getting experts do the work for you and scale the business to where you're making $250 or more in passive income.

Host

Scale it up to quit your job.

Host

I'll literally get to you.

Host

Or go to masterpassiveincome.com freecourse.

Host

Obviously it'll be in the description, but I really, really want you to invest in real estate because the more that actual normal everyday people own real estate that are good landlords, the better everybody's life gets.

Host

Especially when you have everything already built before you buy the property.

Host

Meaning you already have the property manager, contractors, you have inspectors like you have, and even mortgage brokers and a coach that's actually going to be walking you through the process.

Host

I mean, Charles has 20 some properties now.

Host

I mean he's, he's doing so tremendously well and then helping his students.

Host

And it's so much fun because I coach Charles personally one on one, which I don't do the one on one anymore.

Host

I do the group coaching.

Host

Charles has done the one on one coaching.

Host

I think he's done so much better.

Host

Like his students are doing better than he did, which is just tremendous because it's just compounding all this knowledge and learning.

Host

And so with getting that second property within two weeks, was that scary?

Host

Because I think people might be thinking, oh my goodness, how am I going to afford or how am I going to buy it?

Host

How am I get the money for it?

Teresa Muzny

So what happened to the first property is everything went smoothly.

Teresa Muzny

A week before we closed, my property manager, which is also my agent, told me that there was a problem with the renter so he advised me not to go, to cancel the whole deal.

Teresa Muzny

So analyzing it, we cancel it and then I was heartbroken.

Teresa Muzny

So I know Charles told me not to be emotional, but since it's my first property and we put so much work into it, I was a little bit emotional.

Teresa Muzny

So when I emailed Charles and he told me like gather all your frustration and put it into a positive energy to find that property.

Teresa Muzny

So that's what I did.

Teresa Muzny

I analyzed 60 property, cut it down to 30.

Teresa Muzny

I sent 10 properties to my property manager, check, let him check it if it's a good area or not.

Teresa Muzny

So we were like constantly putting a lot of offers every day, every day, every day.

Teresa Muzny

So when I found that supposed to be second property, since I analyzed so much property and I use the green light that you have in the course, green light is to put all the numbers and see if you're going to buy the property or not.

Teresa Muzny

I was very confident doing that.

Teresa Muzny

Mind you, I was doing this during my lunchtime.

Teresa Muzny

So we did it at 1:00.

Teresa Muzny

I put in an offer at 1:30.

Teresa Muzny

I got the property at 3:30 and then we did an inspection on that.

Teresa Muzny

So it was like two weeks back to back property.

Host

Oh.

Teresa Muzny

So and then after I did for that first, for that property, my property manager told me like for the first property the tenant actually got, they fixed their issue.

Teresa Muzny

So he was asking me if I'm still interested.

Teresa Muzny

And of course I'm still interested.

Teresa Muzny

So since we did the inspection, the financing there, it was so easy to close.

Teresa Muzny

So we did close right away.

Teresa Muzny

So that's why we did about two weeks closing on two properties.

Host

That is, that is awesome.

Host

That's such a great story of well, resiliency number one, like let's say I'm not giving up because if I would have gave up on my first property when my property manager stealing from me, I wouldn't be here today.

Host

I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing and being successful, unemployed.

Host

Like that was such a huge deal for me was, oh my goodness, I proven that it works and then I just need to make sure that it consistently works by having the right people in place.

Host

And now you have, how many properties do you have now?

Teresa Muzny

So I actually have three properties in two months.

Host

Wow, three properties in two months.

Host

And the biggest, I guess reason why you've done that is because two things, I think you built the business so you have properties already coming in, you're analyzing it, you already knew and, and you're putting in effort.

Host

You know, you're making sure, like Charles said, take that frustration, that irritation, whatever it might be, and just funnel it into building your business.

Host

And now look at you three properties now, getting the first, second and third property.

Host

Is it getting easier as you go?

Teresa Muzny

Oh, yes, absolutely.

Teresa Muzny

So since I already have my group in place, I have a great coach.

Teresa Muzny

Not only the coach, I have you supporting me also.

Teresa Muzny

And the slack community.

Teresa Muzny

I was so inspired by Praneet.

Teresa Muzny

He's also helping me.

Teresa Muzny

Tom and Justin, they're in my group for the slack.

Teresa Muzny

So if I have some simple questions, they would support me.

Teresa Muzny

We would analyze properties in the green light.

Teresa Muzny

So it's just amazing.

Teresa Muzny

This group is unbelievable.

Host

I love it.

Host

I love it and I agree.

Host

And that's the thing that I wanted that I did not have.

Host

When I first started investing, back when I started investing in 2006, there wasn't communities like this.

Host

There wasn't people that are really trying to help each other out.

Host

It really felt like everybody's just trying to, you know, take and take and take.

Host

And so it's so amazing having now a community where we could all help each other out.

Host

That is just tremendous.

Host

Now what in getting that second and then the third property.

Host

Talk to us about the financing because a lot of people have concerns or like I don't have the money the for a down payment, I don't know how to get financing.

Host

Talk to us about how you got these properties and the financing for each one.

Teresa Muzny

So when I was doing the course, I actually did it step by step.

Teresa Muzny

So I even look at the how to get how to earn 10,000 to start your business.

Teresa Muzny

So I was trying to save up.

Teresa Muzny

I was putting aside 10% of my all my salary.

Teresa Muzny

We were doing craft show.

Teresa Muzny

I was doing side jobs just to get all the money to invest.

Teresa Muzny

So that's why I did the one on one coaching because I want to minimize the error when it comes to investment.

Teresa Muzny

I know there would be a lot of mistake that I may encounter, but doing the one on one coaching would help me a lot.

Teresa Muzny

So financing for the first and second one we did conventional financing.

Teresa Muzny

So when I was, I felt for the second one when I closed I did call Charles and ask him what are the other options to get more property because I want to grow my business.

Teresa Muzny

And then he said like I can do private, private lender also hard money heloc.

Teresa Muzny

He told me I thought my financing would limit me in investing.

Teresa Muzny

But when I, when I talked to Charles he said I have limitless possibility when it comes to money.

Teresa Muzny

So that really Inspired me.

Teresa Muzny

And then I bought the third property, which I did brrr for.

Teresa Muzny

So brrr is by rehab, you rent, refinance, and repeat.

Teresa Muzny

So that's a big project for me, and I just finished it last Friday.

Host

That is so awesome.

Host

And then knowing what Charles told you, I mean, Charles told you exactly what you need to hear is that, like, the money is not the problem.

Host

And a lot of people think that money's the problem.

Host

You know, when they first start investing, they really think that, oh, my goodness, I don't have a down payment saved up or I don't have private money.

Host

I don't have this, that and the other.

Host

They start thinking about what they don't have as opposed to what they do have.

Host

But at the same time, they don't know all the options that are out there.

Host

They don't know how to utilize all these creative financing ways that if you work with somebody that actually has done before, that knows how to get the private money, no hard money, to turning that into a long term mortgage and actually making money in passive income, once you know all these sort of things by getting somebody that's coaching you, oh my goodness, it makes it so much easier.

Host

And one quick last thing I want to share is that you said this from the very beginning.

Host

When you started doing the one on one coaching, you knew it was very important to do the one on one coaching, number one, because it's a fast track.

Host

But number two, you want to minimize the errors.

Host

Minimize the errors.

Host

I mean, I've lost so much money doing it the wrong way.

Host

Like, I literally thought that I was doing it the right way.

Host

Spending money and then finding out, oh, my $30,000 later, that was wrong.

Host

Man, if I had a coach, if I had somebody that was actually going to show me that this is the right way to do it, that would have saved me money.

Host

And the great thing about having a coach is they're going to help you save money and make money.

Host

Those are the two great things.

Host

Now talk to me about working with Charles and the process and because I'd love to know and I know all the listeners want to know, like in the coaching process, how did that help you with the step by step process to getting you over hurdles and even insecurities that you might have.

Host

Like, okay, now take that frustration and put it into the next property.

Host

How was that process for you?

Teresa Muzny

So when I did the before I did the one on one coaching, I was doing the course.

Teresa Muzny

It was so overwhelming for me since I didn't have any background with real Estate.

Teresa Muzny

But I.

Teresa Muzny

So reading it versus supplying it is totally different thing.

Teresa Muzny

So when I did the one on one coaching with Charles, he actually guided me.

Teresa Muzny

He's literally holding my hand and telling me where to go.

Teresa Muzny

It's like a step by step procedure.

Teresa Muzny

You do this, you do that, all those little details that you think it's not important, but once you apply it, it actually makes sense.

Teresa Muzny

So especially like with financing, he actually guided me on what to do.

Teresa Muzny

If I didn't do the one on one coaching, I don't think I would.

Teresa Muzny

I would even have my first property now.

Teresa Muzny

So I'm just so grateful with Charles.

Host

I love it.

Host

And I know that there are certain people that have the gung ho and they just push through it.

Host

And some people actually invest just by listening to this podc and they say, hey, Dustin, I bought my first property just by learning from you.

Host

But there are also like, I know that I learn so much better when somebody walks me through the process when they literally say X, Y and Z.

Host

Now, I did it the hard way.

Host

When I bought my first property or built my business, I did the hard way and lost so much money and time.

Host

That's the thing that people forget.

Host

And I love what you said.

Host

It's a fast track to success.

Host

And it took me, I think it was like nine years to eventually become financially free to quit my job.

Host

Now because I coached Charles and other students, not Charles, but another student took him three years to become financially independent.

Host

Charles, it took him, I want to say 2019 is when he got started.

Host

2023 is became financially independent, you know, four years.

Host

And so imagine if I wishing I would go back and spend a little bit of money to get five years of my life back.

Host

So it's eight instead of nine years to get financial pennant.

Host

It takes me four years, my goodness, I would have five extra years of my life being financially independent.

Host

So I love it.

Host

Now there are so many like lessons and things that you went through.

Host

What can you share with the people listening?

Host

One person listening.

Host

It's like, man, I'm in Teresa's place right now.

Host

Like, I'm trying to get started.

Host

I'm not getting traction.

Host

What lessons have you learned along the way?

Teresa Muzny

So I think the biggest lesson is like, for me especially, I'm a busy mom.

Teresa Muzny

I only have my lunch time to do the master passive income.

Teresa Muzny

I only have lunch time to interview property manager in my group.

Teresa Muzny

So life can be tough.

Teresa Muzny

Like there's always something going on, something in the family, the kids, your health, you moving from one state to the other.

Teresa Muzny

Like people put aside all their dreams.

Teresa Muzny

But again, you always say, when is the best time to plant a tree?

Teresa Muzny

20 years ago.

Teresa Muzny

Right.

Teresa Muzny

And when is the best time?

Teresa Muzny

It's actually now.

Teresa Muzny

So I don't want to look at 20 years from now and have a regret of not doing this.

Teresa Muzny

So I wanted to do it to leave legacy for my family, like more time financially free.

Teresa Muzny

Financially, financially free.

Teresa Muzny

Doing a good relationship with my families and friends.

Teresa Muzny

And of course, like, service, like sharing this to others so others can be inspired and do what we do.

Host

I 100 agree, absolutely love what you're saying.

Host

Because in life, what it really comes down to, life is about family, it's about people around you.

Host

It's about what you can do for helping other people and then who you become.

Host

And so, you know, I personally don't just invest just to make money.

Host

It's that the money that I need in order to take care of my family, live the life that I want, meaning service to other people.

Host

Just like you're saying.

Host

That is so good.

Host

Was give me a specific other than, you know, the property that you didn't go through with, but then you changed it and I went after different properties.

Host

Give me a specific time that something came up.

Host

Oh, let me got me thinking, you got the price down after you got under contract.

Host

Tell me about that process.

Host

How did you do that?

Teresa Muzny

So, because I was analyzing so much property and I was listening to the podcast, so listening to the podcast, I even listened so many times to the 15 mistake that you're not supposed to do.

Teresa Muzny

So when I encounter problems like that, I have you in mind.

Teresa Muzny

What would just what would Dustin do?

Teresa Muzny

What would Charles tell me to do?

Teresa Muzny

So I actually, since I have a good foundation, I was able to apply all that.

Teresa Muzny

So when challenges comes my way, I take it positively.

Teresa Muzny

I wanted to turn it to positive.

Teresa Muzny

Like when I had problems with the financing for the third one for the hard money lender, it didn't go through.

Teresa Muzny

So I have to think of something else, like I have to contact another lender so the loan would go through.

Teresa Muzny

And that's what I did.

Teresa Muzny

So I have so many problems with the third property, but I didn't take it as problem.

Teresa Muzny

I took it in a positive way as a challenge for me to learn from that and be positive and just to get that property.

Host

I think it's great that you're in.

Host

What I'm hearing is that you're changing the frame of reference or you're reframing the problem as, hey, this is an opportunity to either grow to change, to figure out something new as opposed to feeling maybe like the world's against you, you might be a victim or whatever it might be changing the frame of reference to now you're thinking, man, no, the world is for me, like this shit, like this is going to help me out.

Host

This should make me better and better and better.

Host

I love that you change that perspective.

Host

And Charles is really great at mindset.

Host

Charles is a mindset type of.

Host

He's almost a guru in my opinion.

Host

Like, I always go to him for mindset stuff because he really helps to help everybody he talks to to get a frame of reference that.

Host

No, let's reframe it.

Host

Let's frame it as something that is going to help you as opposed to hurt you.

Host

So, Teresa, is there anything else that somebody listening should know while they're investing in real estate?

Teresa Muzny

Again, like for here, I actually started to be vocal with my family to help them invest also.

Teresa Muzny

And some of their friends heard about it.

Teresa Muzny

So they actually have me in a meeting to inspire them.

Teresa Muzny

So they actually listen to your podcast right now and I told them I highly recommend doing the one on one coaching.

Teresa Muzny

Also.

Teresa Muzny

This is an investment that is not just a cash flow every month.

Teresa Muzny

This is you're leaving a legacy for your family, for your children and for them to have a life that they have an option.

Teresa Muzny

Like they, if they have this property or this business, they don't have to work full time.

Teresa Muzny

They can spend time with their family, be whatever they want to be and build relationship with other people.

Teresa Muzny

And also again, the legacy, the four legacy that we talk about is like service to others.

Host

I love it.

Host

You're 100% right.

Host

And the legacy of service to others, you feel more fulfilled in life when you're helping other people.

Host

That's why I created the Real Estate Wealth Builders Conference to connect more people so that they can grow together and help each other out.

Host

Am I going to be able to see you in April at the Real Estate Wealth Builders Conference?

Teresa Muzny

Oh, yes, I am hoping to go there.

Teresa Muzny

Charles.

Teresa Muzny

Dustin, I am hoping to go there.

Teresa Muzny

Last year, this year I didn't go because my kids were qualified for the Junior Olympic for swimming.

Teresa Muzny

But I'm hoping next year I'll be able to do that.

Host

Love it, love it, love it.

Host

Well, Teresa, this has been awesome.

Host

So encouraging for me, like talking to you and others.

Host

I mean we have got thousands of students now and seeing you guys succeed and hearing your story, Teresa, just so encouraging for me to keep moving forward and keep helping more and more people.

Host

Because it's fulfilling for me when I see somebody like you change the trajectory of where they're going in life and hopefully generationally being able to help the future generation.

Host

So thank you so much for being on.

Host

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

Teresa Muzny

I guess since it's new, like the third property, I.

Teresa Muzny

I just want to thank you for inspiring me to do all this.

Teresa Muzny

Charles, doing the one on one coaching.

Teresa Muzny

I actually won't be able to do this without you guys.

Teresa Muzny

Like my third property recently, I just got it renovated in 28 days.

Teresa Muzny

It actually accumulated a good equity of $89,000.

Teresa Muzny

In four weeks.

Teresa Muzny

In four weeks.

Teresa Muzny

And I did the financing in a matter of 30 days because I have everything in place.

Teresa Muzny

Like it's step by step procedure.

Teresa Muzny

So I wouldn't be able to do this without you guys.

Host

Teresa, that is so amazing.

Host

I'm super, super excited for you and everything that you're doing.

Host

So glad that you're part of master passive income.

Host

But thank you so much for coming on show, hopefully encouraging people to move forward.

Host

So if you're listening to this, I want you to think, man, Dustin could do it.

Host

I can do it.

Host

Teresa can do it.

Host

I can do it.

Host

Charles or anybody can do it.

Host

I can do it.

Host

So it's really a step by step process, meaning you just do one thing after another.

Host

It's really not that difficult.

Host

So, Teresa, thank you so much for being on the show.

Teresa Muzny
