WS1144: Asset Protection for Financial Freedom with Scott Smith Dec 08, 2021

Show notes

Scott Smith is the founder of Royal Legal Solutions, an asset protection attorney, and a long-time real estate investor. He believes that life gets easier the more protected you get. For this episode, Scott will talk about the importance of protecting your assets and discuss why it’s not enough to rely solely on insurance policies.

We often get too focused on scaling and achieving financial freedom but neglect the system and process that we need to do to get there. Things like asset protection and tax strategy are buckets that we need to put some energy and money into. We don’t worry about those things most of the time, but if we put a little bit of investment into those buckets, we would surely get a tremendous amount of gain.

WS1138: Vetting Passive Syndication Deals with Samuel Giordano, M.D. Dec 02, 2021

Show notes

When passively investing in real estate, a big question that an investor asks is, “How do I vet a syndication deal?” Upfront, an investor must look at investment structure and returns, the market, and the risks. But beyond the numbers on paper, it is foremost to know if your money is in good hands. So, vetting the sponsor is also a critical step as you will be entrusting them with your investment as a limited partner (LP). But, how do you know if you can trust the sponsor who’s leading the deal?

Dr. Samuel Giordano, a practicing gastroenterologist, author, real estate investor, and co-founder of passiveadvantage.com, walks us through some processes in evaluating syndication deals and sponsors in this episode. Hear the questions that investors should be asking of sponsors, the important metrics to consider, and educational materials that will help prepare for the initial investment. Sponsors, too, could glean lessons on handling decisive dialogues with potential investors.

All these and other great insights in our conversation with Dr. Samuel Giordano!
