The Simple Formula To Wealth

The Simple Formula To Wealth

Help More People – Make More Money

 

Andy recently received a heart warming letter from one of his previous tenants that reinforces the “WHY” of this business. Please take a moment to read and note that the names/addresses have been removed for privacy concerns:

So what does this have to do with wealth? EVERYTHING. The simple formula to wealth is:

THE MORE PEOPLE YOU HELP/BRING VALUE TO = THE MORE MONEY YOU MAKE

Does Apple have nearly $300 BILLION in cash reserves because they came up with clever marketing tricks to fool all of us into buying their product?? NO! They produce a product that gives us access to basically all of humanity’s knowledge and it fits in our pocket! That should be a DOOZY for anyone that remembers going to the library.

Does Andy bring in over 6 figures of passive income a year with misleading, bait and switch housing practices? NO! He created a system to provide affordable housing for hundreds, if not thousands of people in need…just like the person above.

If you want to do something similar then CHECK OUT OUR GOLD COURSE HERE. Andy put together everything you need all in one online course so YOU can replicate his system. Do we charge for it? SURE DO! Remember the formula above. If you are ready to learn and implement what is taught then we believe you will get MASSIVE value from this course. How much do we charge to teach you a system that brings in $4,000 – $6,000 per house on average? CLICK HERE and you might be surprised!

Passive Income Through Group Homes….Is it Possible???

Is Passive Income Real? Is it possible to get Passive Income Through Group Homes?

The short answer is YES!

Passive Income Through Group Homes is totally real. But let’s start by inverting. As Jacobi said – invert. Always Invert.

The easiest way to do this is to simply back into things and then determine what you need. So let’s do this…..

Let’s say you want $100,000 per year coming in passively.

That is $8,333 PER MONTH.

If you play the game correctly, honestly and ethically – you can actually keep all $8,333. How? Because you will own real estate and have depreciation (remember – for every 100K of real estate you have, you get to write off about $3,600 per year!. just for owning it!). These are just some of the nuggets of wisdom you can find in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE

Get Started Now

But let’s just focus on the money for a second. If you know that each home will net you each month about $2,500, how many Group Homes do you need?

You only need about 3.3 Group Homes!

But you can’t have 1/3rd of a Group Home…so let’s just round up and call it 4. Now, to build in a margin of safety (and a manager) let’s add 1 more group home – so you have another $2,500 per month coming in that you can give to a manager. Remember, that is $30,000 per year. Someone can and WILL easily run 5 group homes for $30,000 per year.

This is how you back into it. You now have 5 group homes, making you well over $100,000 per year.

And yes, it is pretty damn passive. Do you need to check the accounting? Yes. Do you need to pay your credit card bill every month? Yes (but you can put that on auto-pay). Do you need to watch the utility expenses like I teach MY FREE 10-PART COURSE students to do? Yes….because utilities (especially water leaks) can add up!

THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE $100,000 in Passive Income Through Group Homes like I teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE and 1-ON-1 TRAINING PROGRAM

NOW FOR THE TRUTH….It is passive ONCE IT IS UP AND GOING! (but not before)

Inertia is the biggest obstacle to overcome at first.

in·er·tia
/iˈnərSHə/

a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.

Please read that again……

You must change your personal state BY AN EXTERNAL FORCE!

Let ME BE YOUR EXTERNAL FORCE!

MY FREE 10-PART COURSE, GOLD COURSE and my 1-On-1 Coaching Systems are designed to PUSH YOU to the next level.

Our web-development Lead Generation Websites are designed to get YOUR PHONE RINGING off the hook once you let them mature so that Google, Yahoo, Bing and the other search engines can find you!

The momentum and initial effort is what will allow you to get to the point of having passive income.

You need to put in time, energy and effort. If you really back into this equation – this is what capital really is! Capital (i.e. Cash) is nothing more than time, energy and intelligent effort that results in the build-up of capital.

TODAY IS THE FATHER OF TOMORROW

Therefore, what we are today is the result of what we have been thinking and the way we have lived in the past.

After you have INVESTED (i.e. sown) through MY FREE 10-PART COURSE knowledge, the WEB DEVELOPMENT LEAD-GENERATION SYSTEM and 1-On-1 Coaching your knowledge base, energy level and effort will result in an amazing GROUP HOME BUSINESS.

Only then can and will you have Passive Income Through Group Homes.

Remember, in life a single seed that sprouts can yield dozens, scores, even hundreds of beautiful and delicious crops.

Some are deceived because their present seed does not appear to be producing an immediate crop. So they continue down their course, mistakenly believing that there will never be a harvest. But unlike the crops of the field, which get harvested at approximately the same time each year, there is no regular timetable for the harvest of life. Some crops we reap quickly; others take a long time. But do not be deceived—their season will come.

AND YOUR SEASON WILL COME…..

Therefore, by going the second mile now, giving more than is required, and investing in yourself through GOLD COURSE TRAINING TECHNOLOGYMY FREE 10-PART COURSE and YOUR GROUP WEBSITE HOME LEAD-GENERATION SYSTEM you will reap rich dividends later.

These dividends can and will allow for Passive Income Through Group Homes all while helping others. Above all, remember that you must invest in yourself today.

Stuff Will Happen With Your Group Home Business – How Will You React?

Stuff Will Happen With Your Group Home Business

 

It is not what happens, but how you react.

 

Most days when I get up I have a little routine that I go through….after all, the routine is what will set you free.

Well, fast fwd. about 20 minutes through the start to my morning and I have my espresso and my hot water, lemon and cayenne pepper next to me in my home office. I accidentally bump the water. It’s early, and I have yet to sip the espresso. My reaction times are a bit slow.

My Arm Moves. Hot lemon water is everywhere…..including my computer.

Fortunately I move the computer on time and wipe away all the water and save the computer from any damage.

The Lesson? Stuff Happens. It is not what happens, but how you react and what we do about it.

For some, this could set them off on a bad foot the rest of the day.
The other lesson is that when you start your GROUP HOME Business, stuff WILL happen.
Yes, great stuff will happen – but other stuff you don’t like will happen too.

You can’t give up.

 

Eventually you need to outgrow the problem. Literally, you become larger than your problem.
I tell a story in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE  where on one of my first Group Homes, my house manager called at about 10PM at night. I was single and out on the town.

Get Started Now

He calls during a fun night (for me) and tells me that 3 cop cars are at the property because one of the tenants is completely drunk, harassing the other tenants BUT the cops will not take the drunk man. Yet at the same time, the cops are asking for the house manager’s identification, ID, name, DOB etc.

    It is almost like the Cops are harassing the wrong guy! 

To make matters worse, the cops will not take the guy or arrest the drunk tenant. Why? They have not “heard” the right words. They haven’t heard any threats. Additionally, the drunk tenant is inside his residence!

There are a few tips and techniques that we teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE  that allow you to overcome obstacles like this. Ideally in life, you don’t spill your coffee in the morning on yourself and you don’t have tenants that cause issues. But the truth of the matter is you will.

Rather than learning how to handle situations like this on the fly – getting “scalped” as I like to say…..
why not simply learn from someone that has already gone through it? 

That is why I put together MY FREE 10-PART COURSE . 


it is essentially a STEP-BY-STEP guide to getting your 1rst, 2nd, 3rd or 20th

Group Home up and going.

TURNING IT INTO A SYSTEM.
The same thing with my LEAD-GENERATION WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT. You need to learn how to generate leads on AUTO-PILOT in order to fill your beds and create a waiting list.

You CAN do this on your own. But realistically, why would you? Life is going to throw you curveballs.

After all, the road to success is paved with ditches, potholes, curves and non-working red-lights. Avoid this and build your GROUP HOME BUSINESS with my MY FREE 10-PART COURSE  and LEAD-GENERATION WEBSITE TODAY.

Group Home Best Practices – Automate Your Monitoring From Home

Yesterday, I met up with one of MY FREE 10-PART COURSE clients and PRIVATE GROUP HOME COACHING STUDENTS and he let me know some of his group home best practices…

 He is on his first home. Here is what he told me:

“Andy, I never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have the house filled THIS FAST!”

Yup….I knew it all along. I knew he could do it. He just needed some encouragement and some additional faith. 

           But I digress. 

                 Let me tell you about HIS SUCCESS in the industry. 

Subscribe

He is a young man, about 24 years old. No college degree. Just a BIG BURNING DESIRE TO HELP OTHERS AND CHANGE HIS FINANCIAL FUTURE. I am sure many of you fall into the same category.

He rented (yes, he rented – he did not buy) a house in a relatively large town in Texas (about 800K people). I did not ask what he is paying for rent, but I would imagine about $1,200. It is a 4 bedroom home. 

He then used MY FREE 10-PART COURSE and our Website Development Package(which is now back & open for a limited time – we were flooded and could only take on so many clients at once) and he began implementing our group home practices that we teach and instruct. 

He began doing some of our group home best practices: marketing to all the local rehab centers, nursing homes, health and human services centers, behavioral health clinics, social workers and case workers just as we teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE

Get Started Now

He began driving traffic to the website that we built for him (our website development product) and gathering leads and email addresses for case workers and social workers

He began emailing the case workers and social workers using our recommended GROUP HOME EMAILING TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM (ask brandon or I about this)

Rehab clinics, nursing homes, behavioral health centers and other began sending him clients…..

 

BUT HERE IS THE BEST PART.
HE CHARGES $900 PER BED PER MONTH. NO FOOD!

      In a few short months, he already has 9 people living in his GROUP HOME.

YOU CAN DO THE MATH!

     $900 X 9 = $8,100 PER MONTH IN REVENUE.  

He pays out probably $1,200 in rent and another $1,000 in utilities, TV, etc.

One thing he is doing which I just LOVE is his online monitoring system where he uses Amazon Cloud Cam so he can not only WATCH his clients, he can listen to them too!                       

(check out the photo from yesterday above!)

He is already excited about doing the COOKIE-CUTTER like I teach all my

MY FREE 10-PART COURSE students to do and setting up another 5-10 group homes. 

Subscribe

   DO THE MATH!

Imagine 10 group homes bringing you in over $80,000 PER MONTH!

AND IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE HE WILL BE HELPING!

And he plans to operate EVERYTHING from his phone…..

He plans to monitor all his clients FROM HIS PHONE (check out the photo he showed me yesterday). They will also PAY HIM on his phone….Yup. This is MY FREE 10-PART COURSE METHOD and one of our group home best practices!

Whether he is in Hawaii (did you see the photo yesterday?) or in the Caribbean ( I have another MY FREE 10-PART COURSE METHOD client going on a Cruise this Thursday to the Caribbean- and she says that she too will be operating everything from her phone while at sea)

Do the math folks! This is a real business. It is a scaleable business. The best part? It is in SUPER HIGH DEMAND! And nobody is doing it!

How to Get Funding For Your Group Home-Grants? Bank Loan? Partners?

“Andy, I don’t have any capital to get my group home started. What should I do? Can You help me with Grants?”

 

I get this question a lot….

Here is what I recommend:

The beauty of the GROUP HOME BUSINESS like I teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE is that it doesn’t cost much to get up and going…..literally $1,500 – $2,000. Anyone in the great united states of America can scrimp and save $2,000. Anyone. How do I know?

Because I know people from Communist Cuba that saved up $8,000 and were flown to Brasil and then WALKED all the way to the united states. Now they assemble beds for Mattress Firm at $50 per installation. Yes, they saved up $8,000 IN CUBA!!

So you can save $1,500 here in the US. You need the BELIEF SYSTEM like I teach in

MY FREE 10-PART COURSE.

But I digress. Let’s talk about some of your options…..

Once you’ve got a working model as I teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE where do you go for the money you need to turn your group home into a business?

Get Started Now

In general, there are four sources of capital:

1. venture capital firms

2. government agencies (GRANTS)

3. commercial banks,

4.  private investors or partners.

If you want to be in a business different from the GROUP HOME business – i.e. TECH

check out the National Venture Capital Association(nvca.org). But for the average entrepreneur- like MY FREE 10-PART COURSE students venture capital isn’t a possibility.
As Paul Lawrence explained in his article “Raising Capital for Small Business Ventures”:
Yes, some venture capital firms will invest in new businesses, but such businesses are usually involved in technology or some other high-growth area. Frankly, for most small businesses, venture capital isn’t even an option. It’s rare for a small-business concept to have the kind of mammoth payoff venture capitalists look for.”
Plus, the cost of doing business with these companies is high. It’s basic economics. Their risk is high, so their reward must also be high. Even if you were to interest a venture capital company in your business, you’d be aghast at what they’d want in terms of their ownership position.

                                    What about government grants?

I am all for grants…but they come with a BIG price.As Tim Berry, author of Hurdle: The Book on Business Planning, points out –

Government grants coming from agencies usually have “social” agendas. Grants and loans are available to a select type of person and or business. Personally, we have helped some of our MY FREE 10-PART COURSE students obtain grants for their group homes…but by and large, I don’t advise taking this route. Why?

Get Started Now

Too much time, energy & artificiality
Too many requirements
Failure rate too high!Why? Because you never ever actually learn the BASICS of running a business!Often, it is based on social policy instead of being connected to profits – which is, after all, what fuels a business.


WHAT ABOUT A BANK LOAN?
As for getting money from a commercial bank, I can make this short: Forget about it unless you own the real estate or you utilize my BUSINESS PLAN like many of MY FREE 10-PART COURSE students have….
For most of you,  The only way a bank will lend you money these days is if:

1. You have excellent credit2. You know how to pitch and talk to bankers (are you a member of MY FREE 10-PART COURSE??)


3. You can collateralize your loan with real estate like I teach in 
MY FREE 10-PART COURSE

4. If you have good credit and tons of money, you don’t need a bank loan. You can loan yourself the money!

ANDY, HOW DO I FIND A PARTNER???
This brings us to the fourth and final option…
Finding a Private Investor or Partner

At first blush, private funding seems like the least likely way to go. You may not know anybody who has money. Or if you do, you may not be willing to risk damaging the relationship by mixing it with business.

Some folks say go to friends and family. I am not sure what I completely think of that, although I eventually did go to a great friend who was wealthy from investing in small (that turned big) business.

As one of my mentors has pointed out, 30% of something is better than 100% of nothing!

In my personal example, I had already been scrimping and saving my way to wealth and had built up a track record. I had gotten good at convincing bankers to loan me money…but man did it take forever! and I needed speed. You see, money follows SPEED.

I TEACH THIS IN MY FREE 10-PART COURSE. TAKE MASSIVE ACTION FAST. LIKE TODAY!

You see, even if I owned 100% of 12 Group Homes that would pale in comparison to putting a system together where I could own 50% of 30 and do that over and over again!That was the beauty of private money.
I recently heard a story from a man that had a small business which was up and going…

The investor took 75 percent of the deal and made the operator sign notes to repay him the 25 percent (about $10,000 or $15,000) that he was liable for. The operator of the small business was a bit unhappy with the arrangement at the time – but eventually he realized it was pretty generous.

This is how businesses get cut-up so to speak. It is all a negotiation.

When you take your GROUP HOME BUSINESS MODEL like I teach in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE to any good businessperson and show him or her the numbers, the sales, cashflow and revenue will do the talking. Cash flow can persuade in a way that market research and computer charts can’t.

           The Difference Between Getting a Loan and Taking On a Partner
Let’s say you have followed MY FREE 10-PART COURSE and proven your idea in the marketplace with a working model….. just one little group home.
The next step is to figure out whether you want an investor or a partner for your group home.
The advantage of taking on debt (getting a loan from an investor) is that you do not give up equity in your business. It can still be 100 percent yours. The disadvantage is that you will owe the money even if the business fails.
The advantage of accepting investment capital (taking on a partner) is that you don’t have to pay the investor if your model doesn’t work out in the bigger world. A second, often overlooked, advantage is that you will have someone to bounce ideas off. (The best investors are successful people in the industry you are entering.)

Between getting a loan and taking on a partner, there’s room to play or cut it up like I mentioned previously.

What I mean by this is that you might be able to structure a deal that has the best of both worlds – a loan that gives the lender a limited (though significant) upside if the business takes off. To get that, you would have to make some concessions. You may have to pay back some of the loan if the business fails, for example. Or you might take, say, 50 percent of the salary the business intends to pay you and use that to pay down the loan over time.

Ultimately, the guy with the money decides what the deal is.But guess what? If your business has CASH-FLOW which it will if you follow MY FREE 10-PART COURSE – you hold the cards.


            WHY YOUR SALES PITCH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING

 

Before you get out and go on your “road show” you need to determine how much dough you actually need. Again, the beauty of the FREE 10-PART COURSE is that you really don’t need more than $2,000 to get your group home up and going…..

Get Started Now


But assuming that you do want to raise money your pitch should contain the following:
Three scenarios:
– Ideal (don’t use hockey-stick projections)
– Less ideal
– MinimumWhen you pitch it, be realistic. Remember, these are business people. They are risk averse by nature even if you presume otherwise. They DO NOT lose money.Here is the formula as outlined by Paul Lawrence:SOLICIT
INTEREST
PERSUADE
EXECUTE



1. Solicit

Begin informally. Casually ask the prospect what line of business they are in. Then say the following:

“I actually thought about doing that to about X years ago….but I decided to go a different route.”

THEN SHUT UP. THEY WILL ASK YOU WHAT YOU DO.

I provide housing and related services for people in the community and pay my partners a very high rate of return secured by valuable collateral.

THEN BE QUIET AGAIN. LET THEM ASK MORE QUESTIONS

Then ask him or her if they would like to hear about any future opportunities. Since he won’t feel that he’s being pressured, it’s more likely that he will give you a positive response.

You also immediately rule out people who have no interest in any business proposals… without putting them (or you) in an uncomfortable position.
2. Interest
After giving your prospect a one-sentence description of your business (don’t give long-winded explanations) You then follow up with an estimate of the business’s profit potential and a couple of supporting statements like I provide in MY FREE 10-PART COURSE via email or in person that provide strong reasons to believe it is viable.
3. Persuade
If the person you are pitching seems interested, set up another meeting to present him with a written proposal.
Make it short and to the point, no more than eight pages. If you are presenting it to the right person – someone already successful in the industry – he will not need more than that.
The proposal should have two goals:
  • First, to prove the substantial profit potential of the business. Rely heavily on actual numbers. (If possible, have the numbers prepared by a neutral accountant.) Based on your working model, estimate your gross revenues, expenses, and profits over a three- to five-year period. If it adds up to a healthy estimated net profit, you’re off to a good start.
  • Second, to demonstrate the low-risk nature of the investment. Although you can’t ethically or legally guarantee that an investor won’t lose his money, you can explain why there is a good chance he won’t lose it. Since much of your evidence is coming from a working model, this should be easy to do.

4. Execute

Once your deal partner agrees to the high-level terms, sit down and sign off on a deal memo, essentially just an outline of the business. Basically, terms of the partnership. You won’t need this if things go as planned, you will only need it if things go south

GROUP HOME THE WEALTH EFFECT – WHAT IS IT AND HOW DOES IT WORK AND HOW DOES IT IMPACT MY GROUP HOME?

                        GROUPHOMES…..

In yesterdays Wall Street Journal Article that I referenced (retire at 40 years Old) I touched a bit on the wealth effect…now lets learn how to do this with group homes. 

I received probably 10 group home subscriber emails afterwords asking about the wealth effect – so I figured that rather than responding to those 10 or so people, I would write to everyone – about 25,000 of you.

So here it is…the Wealth Effect (Andy’s explanation and how it impacts your group homes)


The “wealth effect” refers to the idea that people like you and I will spend more $ when our stocks or real estate go up in value because higher asset prices make us FEEL (note the word FEEL) wealthy. It is basically an emotional high….

And as much discipline as you or I may have….9 out of 10 of us still fall into the trap (including yours truly- But I try to be mindful)

 

                                                       BUT IT IS A FALLACY…A GAME BEING PLAYED ON US.
Let me explain…..


Statistically it has been proven and un-proven. (remember the book, how to lie with statistics?)….

But Guys like Robert Shiller (Case Shiller) and Mark Zandi (Chief Economist at Moody’s) will tell you via Statistics, that for every $1 increase in housing value, there is an $0.08 increase in spending…..

Now, I am not sure if they are considering property taxes or not (because you never get to see that money anyway) – but figure that if your housing goes up in value by $100,000 you spend just 4% rather than 8%….which I find reasonable. In essence, you if you have an extra $100,000 in value in your home – they say you will go take a trip to Mexico for $4,000 – $8,000.

 

      THE PROBLEM WITH THE WEALTH EFFECT AND THE TRUE BENEFICIARIES


I have a friend that lives in a very nice part of town. His house is probably worth $1,300,000. Fortunately, it is paid off and he has no underlying debt on it. But when we chat, he often times tells me that his house is going up by 10% per year. This is the wealth effect.

Unfortunately, for every 10% increase in “value” it actually COSTS HIM an additional $2,300 due to the property taxes! Get it!  So when we talk about the real beneficiaries, one of them is YOUR LOCAL COUNTY PROPERTY ASSESSOR!

 

So his house went up by 10% (he thinks) and yet it cost him an extra $200/month. GOT IT?


Additionally, in his mind, he just made an easy $130,000 doing nothing….Might he now feel wealthy enough to go spend $25 on a nice tri-tip steak and a $50 bottle of Malbec 2X per week as a result?

That is an extra $150/week or $600 per month – OUT OF POCKET.

The point is that high asset prices often times induce a type of euphoria.
This is the Wealth Effect.

It allows the government and others (the true beneficiaries) to essentially TAKE MORE MONEY FROM YOUR WALLET EACH AND EVERY MONTH even though your cash-flow has not increased.

 

 GROUP HOMES – WHY I FOCUS ON CASH-FLOW PRODUCING ASSETS

Get Started Now

If you have read my previous articles and blog posts, you will know that I am a big believer in watching the central banks and more importantly INTEREST RATES. Simply, when interest rates go down – prices go up – and Vice versa. You do not need an MBA from Harvard to figure this stuff out. You only need to learn the basics – and then have a proven, step-by-step system for accomplishing your financial dreams like I teach in my FREE 10-PART COURSE

 


The problem with interest rates, is that they are outside of your control. Chances are, you are not on the Federal Open Market Committee. But what you CAN CONTROL is your business and your knowledge. You see, Group Homes produce CASH-FLOW each and every month.

A Small 4 bedroom home with 8 beds that you rent for $600 each (cheap) produces a GROSS INCOME of nearly $5,000 each month. If your expenses are roughly $2,000 – you have $4,000 PER MONTH to spend how you wish.

This is the power of BUSINESS. THIS IS THE POWER OF GROUP HOMES LIKE I TEACH IN MY FREE 10-PART COURSE

 The wealth effect has other powers-that-be like your local tax assessor getting all of your money because you feel rich. GOLD COURSE GROUP HOMES allow money to flow to YOU each and every month. See the difference?

I hope this explanation of the wealth effect makes sense. Now start paying attention so that attention can PAY YOU!.

Interest rates are rising…….what usually happens when interest rates rise?

I want you to be in charge of your financial life and live your dreams. In my opinion, one of the easiest and sure-fire ways to do that is through CASH-PRODUCING GROUP HOMES. I teach all of this in my FREE 10-PART COURSE
