You Need a License For Your Group Home, Right??

Posted on August 19, 2019 by brandon B

You Need a License For Your Group Home, Right??

WRONG!

This is one of the hardest things for many new FREE 10 PART COURSE members to wrap their head around.

“Why don’t I need a license for my Group Home? Every high priced consultant, lawyer and the secretary at the county office have all told me the same thing! I need to fill out this form, pay that fee, do this upgrade, schedule this inspection, and it will take 6 months to a year to complete”

The following is an example I use for our FREE 10 PART COURSE members that can’t understand how you can just open a Group Home without a license:

Picture this scenario….

Imagine you had a home with a spare bedroom you wanted to rent…

Now imagine you found the perfect tenant. He is 57 years old. He needs a nurse to stop by 3x a week to administer medicine. He uses an in home nurse for this. As a bonus, he gets an SSI check every month…so that’s a GUARANTEED payment every month!

1) Would you need to fill out an application with your local government in order to house this gentleman?

2) Do you need permission from the local health department?

3) Need to become a licensed nurse so you can personally administer his medicine?

4) Would you need to become an Employer and hire a nurse to do this?

OF COURSE NOT

Can there be issues?

Complaints? Of Course!

Let’s say you live in a brand new section of town. All of your neighbors are young, hip millenials who love to socialize. Could they be upset that you have a house filled with old people? Sure!

Could you imagine them bringing this to a court? Could they? Of course!

Do you think they would win?? Of course NOT!

You are protected by the Federal Fair Housing Act!

Many many local governments, city councils, etc. have tried to BAN “Group Homes”. Check out THIS recent article from Southern California. In it, they detail an unlicensed “Sober Home” (another type of Group Home) in a nice neighborhood. Unfortunately, one of the tenants robbed a neighbor. Now the neighbors are in an uproar! They DEMAND the government to protect them and REQUIRE these people to get licensed and regulated!

I understand where they are coming from…but do you really think they have a case? Will the city set this precedent? So if I have a rental property….would I need to decline all housing applicants if they’ve used drugs or alcohol before? More than likely, the Federal Fair Housing Act will be upheld, like all other suits of this nature before.

Check out some excerpts from the article to highlight my points….and keep in mind this is in CALIFORNIA…not exactly a state known for being business friendly and small-government-minded:

“Those numbers don’t include hundreds of other ancillary businesses, sober living homes. Those are the unlicensed but often PROFITABLE HOUSES (emphasis from GHR) used by recovering addicts as a place to live while they launch, in theory, substance-free lives.

In a country with more than 20 million drug or alcohol addicts – and a still growing opioid crisis – there’s little doubt that rehab centers and sober living homes could offer something essential.”

The article tries to cast these homes in a bad light, but they pretty much prove why these types of homes are necessary! Not everyone can afford to live in one of these licensed facilities for $5000 per month! And notice our highlight…often PROFITABLE HOUSES. Just how profitable can they be?

I checked a few “Sober Living” homes on Craigslist in this area and they seem to go for around $1000/month for “semi-private” bedrooms. This means Roommates. So that means each bedroom is bringing in $2000 per month. That’s $8000 total revenue on a 4-bedroom home. Now think of what happens when you get larger, 5-7 bed homes….or when you start converting garages!

See the power of this business! There’s definitely advantages and disadvantages if you wanted to go through the licensing process. But you don’t HAVE to! This is one of the biggest misconceptions about this industry!

Evictions SUCK! Learn How to Avoid Them With Your Group Home

Posted on August 15, 2019August 13, 2019 by brandon B

Evictions SUCK! Learn How to Avoid Them With Your Group Home

Today we are going to learn how you can avoid flushing THOUSANDS of dollars down the toilet with your Group Home business!

Recently our founder went on a pretty epic rant on the way to the courthouse. Check it out on our Youtube page (just punch in Group Home Riches and make sure to subscribe).

Why is he mad?

Because ONE TENANT has caused him to lose around $10,000 in lost income, damages, cleaning costs, and legal fees with the eviction process.

This process can be extremely stressful for the property owner. It can take months dealing with the tenant, then filing the suit, dealing with lawyers, hearings, etc. all while the tenant is living there, not paying rent, and in this case completely JACKING UP the property!

That is one property and only one tenant. Now think of a Group Home! Could you even imagine how bad it could get when you have 6 – 12 tenants all in one home that could be transitioning out of homelessness, prison, drug & alcohol recovery, or any of the other issues they could have?

So how does that work? It must be a NIGHTMARE to manage right??

WRONG!! This is one of the many misconceptions people have about Group Homes that causes them to miss out on a massive opportunity.

Most Group Homes are not going to be requiring a certain credit score, or have income restrictions of verifiable, salaried income that is 2-3x the rental amount right?? If so you’d be hard-pressed to find a tenant that qualifies in this market!

So there needs to be a trade off. That trade off is that they DO NOT GET A STANDARD LEASE. You are not going to “lease” the home to every one of these tenants and then grant them all of the legal rights that comes along with a typical lease.

YOU WILL LICENSE SPACE TO THEM

Think hotels or motels…

If anyone breaks the house rules, disturbs the other tenants, causes damage, or payment doesn’t go through for some reason…anything… you ask them to leave and if they don’t, they are considered trespassing.

Could you imagine a hotel going through a court battle for 60 days before kicking out a disturbing, non-paying guest???!!! Of course not! And neither will you!

This is one of the MANY things taught in OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP)!

Besides all the how to guides, videos and other sample material in the course, you will also get access to OUR LICENSING AGREEMENT! This one document alone is worth the price of OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP)!

How Can You Start a Group Home Business With No Money?

Posted on August 12, 2019 by brandon B

How Can You Start a Group Home Business With No Money?

Keep reading to find out the secret that EVERY successful entrepreneur knows…

A few days ago we sent out a survey with a few general questions to help us improve OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO)

When asked what is holding you back from getting started, the overwhelming response was that you felt you couldn’t afford the start up costs…which are typically around $1500 – $2500. This is the conundrum that many “Wantrepreneurs” face right? You want to…YOU NEED TO…bring in more revenue but you gotta spend money to make money right? AND YOU DON’T HAVE IT!! That’s why you’re here in the first place! It’s a vicious mental cycle that every new business owner has gone through though! BUT IT’S WRONG! You don’t NEED money to start a business!

So how do you start a Group Home with little to no money?

Simple!

Not easy, but simple.

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS

Every “celebrity” entrepreneur did the same thing….Bill Gates, Donald Trump, Elon Musk…they all started from ZERO.

If you have the passion, work ethic, and know how (this is what WE provide for you) then all you need is the house right? Who might have a vacant house you can use as a Group Home and what would be in it FOR THEM??

All you need is a Real Estate Investor AKA a “landlord” and what are 3 things that every single landlord has in common?

1) They want to be paid on time

2) They would like to make more money

3) They don’t want to be called with problems…i.e. clogged toilets

This business and YOU are the perfect opportunity for them!

You need to become an asset though. Every partnership needs to be a win-win and NOBODY is going to provide you capital and/or a home AND do the leg work on top of that! Put yourself in their shoes, what are some of the questions you would want to know before lending money or a home to someone?

Do you know how much you can potentially make in your area? Have a marketing plan? Do you have paperwork for your tenants to sign to avoid the eviction process? How about marketing material? Why don’t you need a license to start? Do you have a business plan showing potential future investors the MASSIVE opportunity this business offers??? How are you going to pitch this to a potential partner?

You can research ALL of this for free or figure it out as you go along just like our founder did. We also provide a free Blog, Youtube channel, Facebook, Instagram, Podcast, and these emails to help out. But these are also examples of just some of the stuff that’s included in OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE!

1 Mistake That Will Cause Your Group Home Business to Fail

Posted on August 10, 2019August 9, 2019 by brandon B

One of the main reasons some Group Home Owners fail…and businesses in general for that matter…is not having the proper systems in place.

Let me tell you a story of a Group Home system gone bad:

We had a struggling Group Home owner come to us, join our FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE TO JOIN!), and turn his business (and life) around soon after enrolling.

Prior to that, he had a Group Home, tenants, and a noble idea! He took in folks transitioning out of prison or homeless shelters, taught them job skills, and found them jobs!

Sounds like a great plan right? But there was one GIGANTIC problem with this system. HE RELIED ON TENANTS TO PAY HIM.

So if these tenants reverted back to any of the old habits that got them in prison or homeless in the first place…like not showing up to work for example…the tenants did not get paid, therefore HE DIDN’T GET PAID!!

The lesson? Do Not Rely On Your Tenants To Pay You

Our FREE 10 PART COURSE will show you how to locate tenants on some type of assistance, either through Government programs or Non-Profits typically, then how to get a GUARANTEED check deposited into your business bank account every month!

To do this, you can become your client’s Representative Payee or require them to go to a 3rd party Representative Payee company that will disburse the client’s funds accordingly. Then get a check for providing housing! The 3rd party method is the FREE 10 PART COURSE recommended method.

You could have the perfect house, in the perfect location, provide top notch service, have a massive marketing list with referrals coming in left and right, a long waiting list, and be 100% occupied. Don’t miss this part and don’t get a system in place to collect guaranteed payments and you could be out of business quickly!

If you’re ready to get started with your own business that generates on average $4000 – $6000 PER HOME per month, then join our FREE 10 PART COURSE today!

What is Your Excuse For Not Starting a Group Home??

Posted on August 7, 2019August 7, 2019 by brandon B

What is Your Excuse For Not Starting a Group Home??

We talk to a LOT of people about Group Homes and do you know what the #1 excuse for people not starting up their dream business is?

Budget Restraints!

That’s right: Lack of funds

If this is YOUR reason for not starting up your own Group Home business let me ask you a question…When is that going to change? And what is going to happen if you DON’T create another source of income for yourself??

Let that sink in for a second….

Hopefully it stung a little bit. If not…maybe you’re just happy where you are at. That’s fine! But if you know deep down that starting a Group Home, helping out people in your community, setting your own schedule and earning an amazing income is right for you then CHANGE YOUR MINDSET.

We’ve said it before and here it is again….don’t tell yourself WHY you can’t do something, ask yourself HOW it can be done!

Where there is a will, there is a way and the above article is an infuriating example of that. But guess what? No matter how awful you might think it is, this guy makes an extra thousand bucks every weekend just by sitting on the street and asking for it. How do junkies afford drugs every day with no job??

You can use the force of your “will” combined with “belief” for good OR evil. There’s a million articles out there about much more positive uses of this force, but this was meant to grab your attention.

You don’t need a lot of money to start a Group Home. You don’t need a license. You don’t need good credit. Or a grant. Or permission from the government. OR ANYTHING ELSE you are telling yourself that’s holding you back.

OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE will give you all of the information and material you need to run your business except the home! HOWEVER, we’ll show you how to acquire a property you can operate a Group Home out of with little to NO money if you really are lacking the funds!

Listen to what other people are saying about our products HERE, and let’s get YOU on your path to Group Home Riches today!

Get Rid of Your Job Once & For All By Starting a Group Home

Posted on July 31, 2019July 29, 2019 by brandon B

Get Rid of Your Job Once & For All By Starting a Group Home

With the cost of living skyrocketing, debt increasing, and wages not keeping up, the country is in an affordable housing crisis. You can start a Group Home to help, and get compensated VERY WELL for it!

As this problem continues to swell, entrepreneurs across the globe will continue to capitalize by solving it!

We’ve written about quite a few of them so far, but Venn is the most recent Silicon Valley start up to cash in on the “Co-Living” market. They are highlighted IN THIS ARTICLE which is another attempt to make people not being able to afford traditional housing as “hip”.

Employed millennials are just the newest “niche” of the population looking into “co-living”, but what about people transitioning out of homelessness, aged out of foster care, seniors stretching their SSI payment, former drug addicts transitioning out of rehab etc. etc?? The list can go on and on but people like this have been living in “Co-Living” situations for ages…they are just called “Group Homes”.

The upside to serving THIS population is that there are BILLIONS in governmental and non-profit funds that guarantee housing payment for folks like this. It’s also a business that you can feel good about! It’s a win-win! Sign up for our FREE 10 PART COURSE if you’d like to learn how to start.

This all sounds great right? But what about the subject of this email? How do you get rid of your job???

Take a look at a sample breakdown of how much you could expect to make running a small operation in this business:

•Three 4-Bedroom Homes (with roomates, 12 bedrooms total)

•24 Tenants at full capacity

•$600 per bed = $14,400/month in revenue

•$172,800 in annual revenue

•60% For Expenses

•You net $69,000 per year

Keep in mind, this is using our Founder’s Group Home expense ratio and each Operational Manager he has oversees FIFTEEN HOMES. That is a full-time job for sure! Inn this example, with you acting as the operational manager to begin with, you are doing ONE FIFTH of a full time job! What is the hourly rate on that? Could you live on almost $70,000 per year while only working part time? What if you wanted to do it full time? Do the math!!

The demand is there. That is why you see all of these start ups popping up and millions and millions of dollars in investment pouring in.

But the great news is that YOU DON’T NEED MILLIONS TO START. You can start small with a rental or even partnering with a passive Real Estate Investor to keep your costs very low or even ZERO.

And you don’t have to spend years learning the business and figuring stuff out like our founder did. He put together how to guides, videos and all of the material he used to grow his business all in one place with OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE.

Are You Making These 3 Common Mistakes When Starting a Group Home Business?

Posted on July 29, 2019 by brandon B

Are You Making These 3 Common Mistakes When Starting a Group Home Business?

Starting a Group Home Business..or any business for that matter…isn’t always easy. There are so many things to think about and decisions to make!

There are several common and dangerous mistakes many new FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE) members make that can negatively impact their businesses.

Here are 3 of the most common ones we see that you should avoid when getting your first Group Home up and running:

1) Not Marketing Enough

This is HUGE. Marketing is going to be the life-blood of your business and many newer members do not realize how BIG you need to go with your marketing. We get a lot of members who have their first home and only get a couple tenants. The reason? They have ONE…maybe TWO referral sources…and sit back and rely on that one social worker or organization to send them clients. Don’t do this if you want to fill up and scale quickly. GO BIG. We recommend using the email marketing tutorial in my FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE), build a database of AT LEAST a couple hundred contacts, and continuously market until you have as much tenants as you want.

2) Trying to Run Before Walking

We have a lot of members come to us with grandiose plans of buying an apartment complex and converting it to a large scale Group Home offering top of the line medical care, or partnering with local government programs and non-profits to completely end homelessness in their community with a large building and free resources….etc. etc. These are all WONDERFUL ideas but let’s be realistic! Have you ever flipped a home? Do you have construction experience? No? …. then you’re going to have an extremely tough time rehabbing and converting a large property! Do you have a lawyer that will help you with paperwork? Do you have political connections?? How bout a track record of successful Group Homes that you’ve previously owned? No?? … then you’re going to have an extremely tough time getting a Grant!

My FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE) will show you how to start with as little as $1500 – $2500 or how to find a partner if you have NO MONEY (this is the PERFECT partnership opportunity for Real Estate investors) and be running at full capacity in 30 – 60 days! Having big goals are AWESOME…but without a plan they are just words! My FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE) will give you the plan along with actionable steps you can take RIGHT NOW to have your first home running much sooner than you probably thought.

3) Analysis Paralysis

You don’t need to learn and know EVERYTHING all at once. There is a TON of material in my FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE) and you should continuously educate yourself. But education is an ongoing journey, not a destination! Once you come up with a game plan and know who you want to market to: START! It’s a really simple concept….find a home, get it set up, market to organizations and people that serve your clientele, fill the home and manage! Don’t make it harder than it needs to be.

Think about your current job or hobby..or really anything like that in your life..you learn as you go along right? Can you imagine if you waited until you knew EVERYTHING about your current job before ever starting?? You’d never start…and never get a check! Unfortunately, this is what MANY people do when starting a business and this will hold them back for years when they could have realistically had a home filled with tenants in the first 30 – 60 days if they just GOT STARTED.

We all make mistakes. Andy made a TON of them when starting out that cost him THOUSANDS…in fact, there is a whole section dedicated to this in my FREE 10 PART COURSE (CLICK HERE). The key is to learn from them! You can do this the hard way by learning from YOUR mistakes…or the easy way by learning from others. The choice is yours!

The Lazy Way to Offer Licensed Care For Your Group Home

Posted on July 25, 2019July 23, 2019 by brandon B

Does Your Group Home Need to Become a Licensed Facility?

Do You Need To Employ Licensed Nurses at Your Group Home?? NO!!!

Let’s imagine a scenario for a moment:

Let’s say you have a home and you want to rent out a converted garage.

You put an ad on Craigslist with a picture of your home, price, and brief write up of yourself and the home’s amenities.

You get a few inquiries and set up a few calls. One person seems like the perfect fit! He is quiet, stays to himself, and has a guaranteed source of income but there’s one catch:

He is an elderly gentleman and he needs a nurse to come by to administer medicine and check his vitals 3 times a week.

What would you do in this situation? Would you try to convert your garage into a licensed facility? How about hiring a nurse and paying him/her out of your own pocket? Would you become a licensed nurse yourself???

OF COURSE NOT!

You don’t have to turn this tenant away either! This is where a “Home Health Company” comes into play and this is what you can do for your Group Home!

In this situation your tenant would call a Home Health company, pay out of their own pocket or through Medicaid for example, and you collect your fee for providing housing! That’s it!

Now instead of one of these tenants in a converted garage, do it for every room! Establish a relationship with a few local companies and you can either refer your clients to them or make the call if needed.

This is exactly what our FOUNDER does for his Group Homes and the method taught in our FREE 10 PART COURSE.

This is one of the MANY tips you can follow in the FREE 10 PART COURSE to replace your full time job’s income while STILL WORKING just like THIS FREE 10 PART COURSE MEMBER DID (CLICK TO LISTEN)!

Follow the management tips in OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE to run a lean business, the easiest way, with minimal work on your end! If implemented correctly, your job duties will be similar to running a rental property and you can easily earn a GREAT LIVING working part time!

Posted on July 21, 2019 by brandon B

How Do You Start Your First Group Home When You Don’t Have Any Money??

What are 2 things that every rental property owner has in common?

1) They want to be paid on time

2) They want to do less work

A group home will cash flow THOUSANDS per home instead of hundreds, so #1 is covered. But what about #2?

This is where YOU…a knowledgeable FREE 10 PART COURSE MEMBER comes in!

Check out this inquiry we received from a rental property owner who reached out to us looking for people like YOU!!!

“Hello,

My property is at (RESERVED FOR OUR FREE 10 PART COURSE MEMBERS). I was wondering for people that would prefer a more hands off approach you or someone from the team would like take a look at a property to be rented out for a group home?

Currently the house has 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths with the possibility of converting the garage for additional rooms.

Please let me know if anyone may be interested.

Happy 4th! “

This gentleman understands that if someone that knows what they are doing rents from him and follows through with their plans, he will have no worries about getting rent on time AND…this is key….he won’t have to manage the property! “

Quote: “more hands off approach” /Quote

That is all this owner would want out of the deal…less phone calls..now imagine if you approached someone like this in your circle of friends and family…or pitched someone at a Real Estate investors meet up….and offered not just to pay rent on time and never call, but also offered a split of the profit!

This is THE BEST way to get your foot in the door if you do not have the start up funds to open your first Group Home.

Lease or rent a home or building
Purchase furniture
Purchase televisions
Turn on utilities
Market your property EFFECTIVELY to your local jails and community organizations!
