You're listening to the Master Passive Income Podcast Network.
HostWelcome to the Master Passive Income Show.
Dustin HeinerThis 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 HeinerAnd 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 HeinerAnd we're going to show you how she did it and how you can do it as well.
HostAll right, let's start the show.
Intro NarratorWelcome 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 NarratorAnd now here is your host, Dustin Heiner.
HostWhat's up?
HostSuper blessed as always to have you here with me on the show.
Dustin HeinerNow, 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 HeinerThere are some amazing things going on that I'm seeing in the economy since we last aired the last show.
Dustin HeinerWe know that Trump won.
Dustin HeinerWe know that Trump won.
Dustin HeinerAnd the day after Trump won, things started happening.
Dustin HeinerHe's not even stepped in as president yet.
Dustin HeinerThe stock market took off like it.
HostJust went so high.
Dustin HeinerAnd it's making money.
Dustin HeinerBitcoin is literally at $88,000 per bitcoin it's taken.
Dustin HeinerI mean, that thing gone up like 30% since Trump's got an office or, you know, got elected a week ago.
Dustin HeinerAnd what I'm seeing is the economy and the real estate market getting so much more perfect for real estate investors.
Dustin HeinerAnd here's a two.
Dustin HeinerTwo things that are literally going on.
Dustin HeinerYou guys know I'm a real estate investor.
Dustin HeinerI've been investing since 2006.
Dustin HeinerAnd right now, two things are going on.
Dustin HeinerThat's really amazing.
Dustin HeinerOne, 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 HeinerGot it all furnished, actually got it rented for three months on Airbnb.
Dustin HeinerIt was terrific.
Dustin HeinerGot really, really good money.
Dustin HeinerInstead of $2,100 a month, it was what I would get long term.
Dustin HeinerI'm getting $3,500 a month, and they rented it for three months.
Dustin HeinerThen 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 HeinerAre you guys wanting the place to continue on Because I want to give you the first rider refusal.
Dustin HeinerBasically if you want to stay, they replied back, hey, give me a call.
Dustin HeinerSo I gave them a call.
Dustin HeinerApparently 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 HeinerSo we're doing a one year midterm property lease.
Dustin HeinerBasically it's the same property.
Dustin HeinerAll I do is I have it furnished and I pay for the electricity, sewer, Internet things, you know, like normal things.
Dustin HeinerAnd they rent it out and they're renting out for $3,500 a month for an entire year.
Dustin HeinerAnd he said even in March and April it might not even be rented.
Dustin HeinerThey might not even have anybody in there because you know they as gap in the jobs.
Dustin HeinerBut I have it a long term tenant for an entire year, midterm wise.
Dustin HeinerSo I'm going to give them a lease.
Dustin HeinerThey're going to be paying ACH directly to me or if I get a property management company, they'll take care of that.
Dustin HeinerBut more than likely I'm not going need that.
Dustin HeinerAnd I'm going to be renting it for $3,500 a month.
Dustin HeinerNow with the midterm I'm going to have more expenses, lawn care, Internet, I.
HostGot to pay for water, sewer and things like that.
Dustin HeinerBut that's probably going to be about five to six hundred dollars a month.
Dustin HeinerAnd in the winter months electricity is so low it's like 100 bucks.
Dustin HeinerSo 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 HeinerHe agreed to that.
Dustin HeinerSo that's awesome.
Dustin HeinerMidterm rentals are amazing.
HostI really, really like short term, but.
Dustin HeinerMan, the wear and tear on your properties is pretty rough.
Dustin HeinerMidterms are great now that's one.
Dustin HeinerSo midterms are taking off.
Dustin HeinerAnd if you're doing midterms where you're renting per room, that is going very, very well too.
Dustin HeinerLots of my students are doing renting a per room.
Dustin HeinerBut here's another great thing.
Dustin HeinerI have another property I might be getting under contract.
Dustin HeinerIt is a multifamily property, 70 units, Class A in Columbus, Ohio.
Dustin HeinerAnd the sellers, they built it in 2001 for $19 million.
Dustin HeinerAnd they're having to sell it very.
HostVery fast because well, what the words.
Dustin HeinerActually that they used was they're a bigger Fish to fry.
Dustin HeinerAnd they need to get it off their balance sheet or off their books.
Dustin HeinerBasically.
Dustin HeinerThey need to sell it for some other reason, which is great for us.
Dustin HeinerIt's a fantastic property.
Dustin HeinerWe're looking at buying it for about 10 million, a little over 10 million when they built it for 19 million.
Dustin HeinerAnd I'm seeing so many commercial deals that are going to.
Dustin HeinerThey're here, but it's going to get even better and better and better.
Dustin HeinerPeople are distressed.
Dustin HeinerOur companies are distressed sellers now, which is so good for us.
Dustin HeinerSo 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 HeinerNow, 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 HeinerSo that increases our income, the expenses.
Dustin HeinerWe can also decrease the income or decrease the expenses.
HostSorry.
Dustin HeinerWe can increase the income, decrease the expenses.
Dustin HeinerAnd there's also a moratorium for another, I think, 11 years so that the taxes will not go up in value.
Dustin HeinerLike 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 HeinerThat's a huge value that's going to benefit us.
Dustin HeinerSo many other great things.
Dustin HeinerBut we're looking at picking this property up.
Dustin HeinerAnd again, just like the COVID where it's doing terrific.
Dustin HeinerWe just gave out our first distributions last month.
Dustin HeinerIt's looking awesome.
Dustin HeinerWe have another deal.
Dustin HeinerThis deal could potentially be even better than the COVID deal.
Dustin HeinerLike, I'm super excited about these deals coming out.
Dustin HeinerWell, 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 HeinerAnd you guys know I'm not a syndicator.
Dustin HeinerI'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 HeinerAnd with that money being raised, we have to have investors.
Dustin HeinerSo 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 HeinerIf you want to invest with us in our own personal deals, then go to masterpassiveincome.com invest.
Dustin HeinerIt'll be in the link in the description.
Dustin HeinerBut masterpassiveincome.com investor and I will reach out to you personally to chat with you about potentially investing in this deal.
Dustin HeinerIt's $50,000, the minimum that you can invest in.
Dustin HeinerAnd 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 HeinerThe beginner's median is a small one.
Dustin HeinerThe business owner, the scalar stage, that's the medium size.
Dustin HeinerAnd 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 HeinerSo if you want to know more about this.
Dustin HeinerWell, I'll say one thing.
Dustin HeinerI 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.
HostI use full transparency.
Dustin HeinerI don't have $3.8 million for, for the down payment.
Dustin HeinerBut 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 HeinerWe'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 HeinerAnd 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 HeinerNow 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 HeinerIt's all of our members that are a part of it that are growing through the group coaching courses and everything.
Dustin HeinerAnd we get so much success in that.
Dustin HeinerAnd 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 HeinerAnd she started doing the one on one coaching with Charles Rose Jr.
Dustin HeinerWe have actually three different coaches here at Master Passive Income and I do the group coaching.
Dustin HeinerAnd so if you get the one on one coaching with one of the coaches, it's the fast track.
Dustin HeinerThey literally help you go through every single step of the process.
HostYou do all the work, don't get.
Dustin HeinerMe wrong, you do all the work.
Dustin HeinerBut they, the coaches are There to help you step over landmines, you know, make money, save money, negotiate everything like that.
Dustin HeinerAnd then you also have me and the group coaching if you want to do the one on one coaching.
Dustin HeinerNow, 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 HeinerAnd getting that first property was hard.
Dustin HeinerAnd she'll explain that.
Dustin HeinerBut 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 HeinerI have my student Theresa Muzny on the show with me.
Dustin HeinerAll right, here we go.
HostTeresa, so great to have you with us.
Teresa MuznyThank you, Dustin.
Teresa MuznyIt's.
Teresa MuznyIt's a great honor to be here.
Teresa MuznyI'm excited and I feel blessed.
HostThis is terrific.
HostNow how did you find Master Passive Income?
HostHow'd you find me?
HostAnd then, you know, obviously we started coaching and everything like that, but how did you find us?
Teresa MuznySo basically I was just looking for a passive income.
Teresa MuznyI'm browsing on the podcast and I saw your podcast.
Teresa MuznyIt looks very interesting.
Teresa MuznyI really have no background whatsoever with real estate.
Teresa MuznyWhat more with the out of state investor?
Teresa MuznySo when I was listening to it, I bought your books, I subscribed, and then I was listening to the podcast.
Teresa MuznyI was so inspired.
Teresa MuznyAnd then when I was almost over, I did the one on one coaching with Charles.
Teresa MuznyHe's amazing.
Teresa MuznyAnd that actually fast tracked my business.
Teresa MuznyAnd that was one of the best decision I've ever made in my life too.
HostI love it.
HostAnd a lot of people find us through the podcast, which is just tremendous way to reach people and just to help coach people.
HostAnd you're 100% right.
HostLike we have courses that people can just get the course so they can just listen to podcasts and learn.
HostAnd we also even have group coaching where it's.
HostYou don't have one on one coaching, but you get group coaching where you have access to me and the other coaches.
HostBut 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.
HostNow tell me about your first property and all about from like what you where it's located, how much did you buy it for?
HostWhat's the passive income like?
Teresa MuznySo 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 MuznySo during on the podcast, on the course, you told us like to set up the business first, which I did.
Teresa MuznySo before looking for property, I looked for a good property manager, lender, agent, contractor.
Teresa MuznyOnce my group was set, I was able to find a property.
Teresa MuznySo the property, the asking was 95,000.
Teresa MuznyAnd since I was practicing a lot on putting the numbers correctly to make.
Teresa MuznyMake sure that I have a cash flow.
Teresa MuznySo I put an offer up for 85,000, and they counter for 88,000.
HostThat's awesome.
HostAnd so did you accept that offer?
HostThe counter?
Teresa MuznyI 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 MuznyAfter the inspection, we put it down.
Teresa MuznyIt brought.
Teresa MuznyIt was down to 4,000.
Teresa MuznySo we purchased the property to 84,000.
Teresa MuznyIt already have a tenant, so we did not have to do renovation.
Teresa MuznyAnd it was cash flowing for $330 a month.
Teresa MuznyYes.
HostWow.
HostSo you got even more money off.
HostAnd so you said you closed for 80 or after everything.
Host84,000.
HostThey were asking 95.
Teresa MuznyThey were asking for 95, and we got it for 84,000.
Teresa MuznyWow.
HostAnd so that's $11,000 that you save.
HostPut it back in your pocket, and then it's already cash flowing.
HostWhat area of the country or what city is it in?
Teresa MuznyIt's in Memphis, Tennessee.
Teresa MuznyMemphis is great.
Teresa MuznyIt's a hot market right now.
HostOh, it sure is.
HostIt sure is.
HostNow, was it hard to get that first property and getting financing?
HostBecause everybody always thinks, oh, man, it's so hard to find properties.
HostIt's so hard to get money for properties Now.
HostA lot of.
HostA 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.
HostIt makes it really, really hard.
HostBut when you have somebody helping you, it makes it easier.
HostBut we getting this first property, was it a big hurdle to get over?
HostAnd then that second property, how quickly that second property come?
Teresa MuznySo this.
Teresa MuznySo the second I closed on the first property May 28, and after two weeks, I close on the second one.
Teresa MuznyBut a backstory about that one.
Teresa MuznySo I guess because I.
Teresa MuznyBecause of master passive income, I set up my business correctly.
Teresa MuznyI have a great property manager, which I interview.
Teresa MuznyI 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 MuznySo 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 MuznyI have the right group and I have the right area.
Teresa MuznyThat's why I was able to confidently send an offer to that property.
HostAnd I want to pause for a quick second and share that.
HostHonestly, I really want you to invest in real estate.
HostNow.
HostMy new goal is to help 1 million people invest in real estate.
HostSo two things I would ask from you.
HostNumber one, if you get anything out of this episode, please share it with somebody else.
HostJust say, hey, you know, check out Dustin and Master passive income.
HostHe really wants to help a million people to invest in real estate.
HostThat's number one.
Dustin HeinerNumber two, I want to get you.
HostTo invest in real estate.
HostGet my real estate investing course absolutely for free.
HostText the word rental R E N T A L 233777 rental to 33777.
Dustin HeinerI'll literally give you my course, show.
HostYou how to find the area of the country to invest, how to build the business first.
HostYou know, I always talk about that.
Dustin HeinerAnd how to find the right properties.
HostHow 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.
HostScale it up to quit your job.
HostI'll literally get to you.
HostOr go to masterpassiveincome.com freecourse.
HostObviously 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.
HostEspecially when you have everything already built before you buy the property.
HostMeaning 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.
HostI mean, Charles has 20 some properties now.
HostI mean he's, he's doing so tremendously well and then helping his students.
HostAnd it's so much fun because I coach Charles personally one on one, which I don't do the one on one anymore.
HostI do the group coaching.
HostCharles has done the one on one coaching.
HostI think he's done so much better.
HostLike his students are doing better than he did, which is just tremendous because it's just compounding all this knowledge and learning.
HostAnd so with getting that second property within two weeks, was that scary?
HostBecause I think people might be thinking, oh my goodness, how am I going to afford or how am I going to buy it?
HostHow am I get the money for it?
Teresa MuznySo what happened to the first property is everything went smoothly.
Teresa MuznyA 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 MuznySo analyzing it, we cancel it and then I was heartbroken.
Teresa MuznySo 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 MuznySo 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 MuznySo that's what I did.
Teresa MuznyI analyzed 60 property, cut it down to 30.
Teresa MuznyI sent 10 properties to my property manager, check, let him check it if it's a good area or not.
Teresa MuznySo we were like constantly putting a lot of offers every day, every day, every day.
Teresa MuznySo 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 MuznyI was very confident doing that.
Teresa MuznyMind you, I was doing this during my lunchtime.
Teresa MuznySo we did it at 1:00.
Teresa MuznyI put in an offer at 1:30.
Teresa MuznyI got the property at 3:30 and then we did an inspection on that.
Teresa MuznySo it was like two weeks back to back property.
HostOh.
Teresa MuznySo 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 MuznySo he was asking me if I'm still interested.
Teresa MuznyAnd of course I'm still interested.
Teresa MuznySo since we did the inspection, the financing there, it was so easy to close.
Teresa MuznySo we did close right away.
Teresa MuznySo that's why we did about two weeks closing on two properties.
HostThat is, that is awesome.
HostThat'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.
HostI wouldn't be doing what I'm doing and being successful, unemployed.
HostLike 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.
HostAnd now you have, how many properties do you have now?
Teresa MuznySo I actually have three properties in two months.
HostWow, three properties in two months.
HostAnd 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.
HostYou 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.
HostAnd now look at you three properties now, getting the first, second and third property.
HostIs it getting easier as you go?
Teresa MuznyOh, yes, absolutely.
Teresa MuznySo since I already have my group in place, I have a great coach.
Teresa MuznyNot only the coach, I have you supporting me also.
Teresa MuznyAnd the slack community.
Teresa MuznyI was so inspired by Praneet.
Teresa MuznyHe's also helping me.
Teresa MuznyTom and Justin, they're in my group for the slack.
Teresa MuznySo if I have some simple questions, they would support me.
Teresa MuznyWe would analyze properties in the green light.
Teresa MuznySo it's just amazing.
Teresa MuznyThis group is unbelievable.
HostI love it.
HostI love it and I agree.
HostAnd that's the thing that I wanted that I did not have.
HostWhen I first started investing, back when I started investing in 2006, there wasn't communities like this.
HostThere wasn't people that are really trying to help each other out.
HostIt really felt like everybody's just trying to, you know, take and take and take.
HostAnd so it's so amazing having now a community where we could all help each other out.
HostThat is just tremendous.
HostNow what in getting that second and then the third property.
HostTalk 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.
HostTalk to us about how you got these properties and the financing for each one.
Teresa MuznySo when I was doing the course, I actually did it step by step.
Teresa MuznySo I even look at the how to get how to earn 10,000 to start your business.
Teresa MuznySo I was trying to save up.
Teresa MuznyI was putting aside 10% of my all my salary.
Teresa MuznyWe were doing craft show.
Teresa MuznyI was doing side jobs just to get all the money to invest.
Teresa MuznySo that's why I did the one on one coaching because I want to minimize the error when it comes to investment.
Teresa MuznyI 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 MuznySo financing for the first and second one we did conventional financing.
Teresa MuznySo 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 MuznyAnd then he said like I can do private, private lender also hard money heloc.
Teresa MuznyHe told me I thought my financing would limit me in investing.
Teresa MuznyBut when I, when I talked to Charles he said I have limitless possibility when it comes to money.
Teresa MuznySo that really Inspired me.
Teresa MuznyAnd then I bought the third property, which I did brrr for.
Teresa MuznySo brrr is by rehab, you rent, refinance, and repeat.
Teresa MuznySo that's a big project for me, and I just finished it last Friday.
HostThat is so awesome.
HostAnd 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.
HostAnd a lot of people think that money's the problem.
HostYou 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.
HostI don't have this, that and the other.
HostThey start thinking about what they don't have as opposed to what they do have.
HostBut at the same time, they don't know all the options that are out there.
HostThey 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.
HostAnd one quick last thing I want to share is that you said this from the very beginning.
HostWhen 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.
HostBut number two, you want to minimize the errors.
HostMinimize the errors.
HostI mean, I've lost so much money doing it the wrong way.
HostLike, I literally thought that I was doing it the right way.
HostSpending money and then finding out, oh, my $30,000 later, that was wrong.
HostMan, 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.
HostAnd the great thing about having a coach is they're going to help you save money and make money.
HostThose are the two great things.
HostNow 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.
HostLike, okay, now take that frustration and put it into the next property.
HostHow was that process for you?
Teresa MuznySo when I did the before I did the one on one coaching, I was doing the course.
Teresa MuznyIt was so overwhelming for me since I didn't have any background with real Estate.
Teresa MuznyBut I.
Teresa MuznySo reading it versus supplying it is totally different thing.
Teresa MuznySo when I did the one on one coaching with Charles, he actually guided me.
Teresa MuznyHe's literally holding my hand and telling me where to go.
Teresa MuznyIt's like a step by step procedure.
Teresa MuznyYou 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 MuznySo especially like with financing, he actually guided me on what to do.
Teresa MuznyIf I didn't do the one on one coaching, I don't think I would.
Teresa MuznyI would even have my first property now.
Teresa MuznySo I'm just so grateful with Charles.
HostI love it.
HostAnd I know that there are certain people that have the gung ho and they just push through it.
HostAnd 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.
HostBut 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.
HostNow, I did it the hard way.
HostWhen I bought my first property or built my business, I did the hard way and lost so much money and time.
HostThat's the thing that people forget.
HostAnd I love what you said.
HostIt's a fast track to success.
HostAnd it took me, I think it was like nine years to eventually become financially free to quit my job.
HostNow because I coached Charles and other students, not Charles, but another student took him three years to become financially independent.
HostCharles, it took him, I want to say 2019 is when he got started.
Host2023 is became financially independent, you know, four years.
HostAnd so imagine if I wishing I would go back and spend a little bit of money to get five years of my life back.
HostSo it's eight instead of nine years to get financial pennant.
HostIt takes me four years, my goodness, I would have five extra years of my life being financially independent.
HostSo I love it.
HostNow there are so many like lessons and things that you went through.
HostWhat can you share with the people listening?
HostOne person listening.
HostIt's like, man, I'm in Teresa's place right now.
HostLike, I'm trying to get started.
HostI'm not getting traction.
HostWhat lessons have you learned along the way?
Teresa MuznySo I think the biggest lesson is like, for me especially, I'm a busy mom.
Teresa MuznyI only have my lunch time to do the master passive income.
Teresa MuznyI only have lunch time to interview property manager in my group.
Teresa MuznySo life can be tough.
Teresa MuznyLike there's always something going on, something in the family, the kids, your health, you moving from one state to the other.
Teresa MuznyLike people put aside all their dreams.
Teresa MuznyBut again, you always say, when is the best time to plant a tree?
Teresa Muzny20 years ago.
Teresa MuznyRight.
Teresa MuznyAnd when is the best time?
Teresa MuznyIt's actually now.
Teresa MuznySo I don't want to look at 20 years from now and have a regret of not doing this.
Teresa MuznySo I wanted to do it to leave legacy for my family, like more time financially free.
Teresa MuznyFinancially, financially free.
Teresa MuznyDoing a good relationship with my families and friends.
Teresa MuznyAnd of course, like, service, like sharing this to others so others can be inspired and do what we do.
HostI 100 agree, absolutely love what you're saying.
HostBecause in life, what it really comes down to, life is about family, it's about people around you.
HostIt's about what you can do for helping other people and then who you become.
HostAnd so, you know, I personally don't just invest just to make money.
HostIt'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.
HostJust like you're saying.
HostThat is so good.
HostWas 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.
HostGive me a specific time that something came up.
HostOh, let me got me thinking, you got the price down after you got under contract.
HostTell me about that process.
HostHow did you do that?
Teresa MuznySo, 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 MuznySo when I encounter problems like that, I have you in mind.
Teresa MuznyWhat would just what would Dustin do?
Teresa MuznyWhat would Charles tell me to do?
Teresa MuznySo I actually, since I have a good foundation, I was able to apply all that.
Teresa MuznySo when challenges comes my way, I take it positively.
Teresa MuznyI wanted to turn it to positive.
Teresa MuznyLike when I had problems with the financing for the third one for the hard money lender, it didn't go through.
Teresa MuznySo I have to think of something else, like I have to contact another lender so the loan would go through.
Teresa MuznyAnd that's what I did.
Teresa MuznySo I have so many problems with the third property, but I didn't take it as problem.
Teresa MuznyI took it in a positive way as a challenge for me to learn from that and be positive and just to get that property.
HostI think it's great that you're in.
HostWhat 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.
HostThis should make me better and better and better.
HostI love that you change that perspective.
HostAnd Charles is really great at mindset.
HostCharles is a mindset type of.
HostHe's almost a guru in my opinion.
HostLike, 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.
HostNo, let's reframe it.
HostLet's frame it as something that is going to help you as opposed to hurt you.
HostSo, Teresa, is there anything else that somebody listening should know while they're investing in real estate?
Teresa MuznyAgain, like for here, I actually started to be vocal with my family to help them invest also.
Teresa MuznyAnd some of their friends heard about it.
Teresa MuznySo they actually have me in a meeting to inspire them.
Teresa MuznySo they actually listen to your podcast right now and I told them I highly recommend doing the one on one coaching.
Teresa MuznyAlso.
Teresa MuznyThis is an investment that is not just a cash flow every month.
Teresa MuznyThis 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 MuznyLike they, if they have this property or this business, they don't have to work full time.
Teresa MuznyThey can spend time with their family, be whatever they want to be and build relationship with other people.
Teresa MuznyAnd also again, the legacy, the four legacy that we talk about is like service to others.
HostI love it.
HostYou're 100% right.
HostAnd the legacy of service to others, you feel more fulfilled in life when you're helping other people.
HostThat'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.
HostAm I going to be able to see you in April at the Real Estate Wealth Builders Conference?
Teresa MuznyOh, yes, I am hoping to go there.
Teresa MuznyCharles.
Teresa MuznyDustin, I am hoping to go there.
Teresa MuznyLast year, this year I didn't go because my kids were qualified for the Junior Olympic for swimming.
Teresa MuznyBut I'm hoping next year I'll be able to do that.
HostLove it, love it, love it.
HostWell, Teresa, this has been awesome.
HostSo encouraging for me, like talking to you and others.
HostI 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.
HostBecause 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.
HostSo thank you so much for being on.
HostIs there anything else you'd like to share?
Teresa MuznyI guess since it's new, like the third property, I.
Teresa MuznyI just want to thank you for inspiring me to do all this.
Teresa MuznyCharles, doing the one on one coaching.
Teresa MuznyI actually won't be able to do this without you guys.
Teresa MuznyLike my third property recently, I just got it renovated in 28 days.
Teresa MuznyIt actually accumulated a good equity of $89,000.
Teresa MuznyIn four weeks.
Teresa MuznyIn four weeks.
Teresa MuznyAnd I did the financing in a matter of 30 days because I have everything in place.
Teresa MuznyLike it's step by step procedure.
