The 5 Ways We Make Money As Real Estate Entrepreneurs

 



Five Ways to Make Money is Better Than One

Real estate investing is the most powerful wealth-building tool available to the average person.

The reason it’s so powerful is: there are five ways it makes you money.

RELATED: No Cash, No Credit: How to ALWAYS Leverage Other People’s Money in Real Estate Investing

Stocks, by contrast, only share one of these sources (two if you’re getting dividends).

Once you understand how all five of these income sources work, you will begin to see the tremendous wealth-building power of real estate bought and managed correctly.

I Said Correctly

Quick Disclaimer: These five income sources only apply to real estate bought and managed the way my mentors taught me:

A) with equity,
B) with cash flow,
C) in “bread and butter” neighborhoods,
and D) managed with best practices.

If your knee-jerk reaction is that real estate investing is too risky, you have not yet been taught how to minimize the risk. The way I was taught to invest in real estate is not the same way that many of the “gurus” teach. Most of those programs are far to risky for my taste.

Multiple Streams of Income

One neat thing about having so many different income streams is that real estate can be forgiving. Many people I know (including myself) screwed up on their first deal, but still made money. That’s because one income stream can make up for a lack of another.

Now, I don’t recommend screwing it up. You might as well do it right as long as you’re getting in the business. That way you won’t ruin your taste for the most powerful wealth-building tool available to the average person.

Let’s run down the list of the five ways:

1. Cash Flow

Cash flow is the reason we seek Passive Income-Producing Assets. Without cash flow, you don’t have income… meaning: you can’t quit your job without cash flow.

We don’t buy a piece of real estate unless the rental income is greater than the monthly expenses by a decent margin.

For example, when your tenant pays you $1,000 a month and your monthly expenses including principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and maintenance/occupancy reserve are $800 a month; the $200 difference is now income in your pocket.


In other words . . ., creating Passive Income/Real Estate Investing using Business Models like this one => https://Bit.ly/BestBigMoneySideGig & this one=> https://Bit.ly/UseOurMoneyToBuyRealEstate are 2 of the best ways to improve your financial situation REALLY QUICKLY!!!

2. Equity Capture

Equity capture is when you buy an asset for less than it’s worth. In real estate, it’s when you buy a house in a $100k neighborhood for $50k, fix it up for $20k and you’re “all in” for $70k.

You just captured $30k in equity which goes directly towards your net worth. Few other investment vehicles can create wealth so quickly.

Without equity, you are exposing yourself to the risk of a falling market. We always buy assets with equity so that we are never hurt by a down market.

Online Businesses, Network Marketing, ( I personally have both in my Portfolio ) and vending can be good sources of cash flow, but they don’t offer an opportunity to buy an asset for less than it’s worth.

3. Market Appreciation

Real estate doubles in value every twenty years. It might fluctuate in the short term, but it is forced to rise over the long term with inflation of building materials, labor, and scarcity of land.

The main reason most people buy stocks today is for market appreciation while it’s only the 4th most important reason we buy or invest in or control real estate.

Do you see the difference?

While stock investors live and die by market appreciation, real estate investors see it as a nice bonus to pile on top of the other four ways we make money.

4. Principal Pay Down

Here’s a neat way we make money in real estate that most people don’t even think of.

We naturally accumulate equity in our Properties as the notes get paid down.

Even if you weren’t making money any other way, your tenants would be paying down your mortgage a little bit each month. It starts out small, like fifty or a hundred dollars a month, but it grows over time and adds to your equity in the house.

The other asset classes typically don’t have mortgages, so this wouldn’t apply.

5. Tax Advantage

Real estate investors pay the lowest taxes of any for-profit group in the United States. The IRS allows us to reduce our earned income tax on cash flow by taking a depreciation deduction against the property. We can avoid capital gains tax when we sell by using a 1031 tax exchange.

How long can you avoid taxes with a 1031? If you pass the property to your children, they will take over at the new cost basis, which wipes out all of the capital gains over the life of that asset.

None of the other assets can claim such a huge tax advantage.

Does it Make Sense?

Are you starting to understand why I talk up real estate investing so much?

It’s the only asset class that I know of that can create rapid wealth. All the others make money in one or two ways, but not five.


NOTE: Although educating yourself is beneficial, it’s also important to understand that to make the best real estate investment decisions or building Passive Income Streams you likely will need an Advisor or Successful Mentor who can add value with their niche expertise and vast array of resources.

So by now you're probably ready to get a clearer picture of how to build wealth quickly , easily and without wasting time, effort, energy or money?

Coronavirus: Layoff Considerations During This Global Pandemic


Coronavirus: Layoff Considerations During This Global Pandemic


Protecting Your Employees During Coronavirus  
Layoffs are hard in the best of times and now particularly tough in the middle of unprecedented economic and social uncertainty. Employers face impossible decisions and employees out of work are looking at a bleak job market given the number of businesses shutting their doors, at least temporarily. 

Employers are having to choose whether or not to send employees home temporarily or permanently until the situation improves. For those weighing that difficult decision, here is some information that may help.  


Frequently Asked Layoff Questions During Coronavirus: 
  • LAYOFF CONSIDERATIONS 
  • LEAVE OF ABSENCE VS BUSINESS SHUT DOWN 
  • COMMUNICATING LAYOFFS 
  • LIABILITY 
  • FURLOUGH vs LAYOFFS 
  • WARN ACT 
  • PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES 
  • UNPAID LEAVE 
  • UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS 

Layoff Considerations 

What do I need to consider before laying off employees?  
An employer’s first consideration should be doing what is best for their employees in both the short and long term. In contemplating termination, you have to determine whether the layoffs would be temporary or permanent. A temporary layoff would allow employees to immediately apply for unemployment benefits under the coronavirus relief bill and leave open the possibility to bring them back once business returns to something like normal. 

However, there are no firm notions as to when or even if normal will return, and employers have to consider permanent reductions should the current situation run on for months. Permanent layoffs come with their concerns, namely worries about having to hire and train a new set of workers in the future and the possible negative perception or impact on your brand. Workplaces that meet certain criteria would also have to worry about triggering the WARN Act with permanent layoffs, which might necessitate notice to workers being laid off.   


Given all these potential issues, it might be worth exploring all alternatives, including altered, staggered work schedules and reduced hours, before choosing to lay off employees. Employers can now apply for SBA Disaster Loans as well as loans under the Payroll Protection Program to cover any shortfalls in meeting payroll and expenses, help to prevent layoffs. Employers are also entitled to a refundable payroll tax credit for up to 50 percent of payroll for businesses partially or fully suspended or who have seen a 50 percent decline in business receipts   

How do I decide between a leave of absence and a shutdown due to a lack of work? 
Figuring out how to handle a sharp downturn in business and an inability to pay all employees is a challenge. Forcing some employees to take an unpaid leave of absence might save you money while remaining open, but it can place them in a tough spot financially, and you are still incurring the fixed costs of running a business, even with a skeleton crew. A shutdown may be more painful in the short term, but it might ultimately be the best for all involved. A case by case analysis needs to be done based on your financial situation.   

Communicating Layoffs 
What am I required to tell employees that are being laid off? 
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, most employers are not required to provide employees with notification in the case of layoffs. That said, it behooves any employer to have an honest conversation with employees being laid off and to provide them with a layoff letter outlining the reasons, in the interest of transparency. Consult a LegalShield attorney for advice on the layoff process applicable in your state. 
  
Writing temporary layoff letters or layoff letters – what are the requirements? 
Most employers aren’t required to provide notification to an employee of a layoff, provided that they are an at-will employee and not under a contract (and that the layoffs don’t fall under the provisions of the WARN Act.)  

However, it is a good practice to give employees a layoff letter. A layoff letter should outline the reasons and the criteria for the layoff and the terms of any severance that may be provided. It’s important that any layoff letter not open up the company to legal liability for discrimination, so in addition to not using discriminatory criteria, make sure that the language used in the letter is avoiding any such implication by consulting a lawyer.   

Liability 
How can I shield myself from liability down the road? 
In handling layoffs, employers should be clear and honest about the reason for layoffs and should approach them from a fair and non-discriminatory manner. That means outlining your criteria to ensure that layoffs wouldn’t disproportionately affect groups protected under federal employment discrimination laws, and making adjustments to your guidelines if they do. 


Will I face legal challenges if I use performance-based criteria? 
Provided that your criteria for layoffs are fair and non-discriminatory, you shouldn’t face legal challenges. As discussed above, if layoffs don’t disproportionately affect a protected group and any letters or notices are clear that the layoffs are based on factors beyond documented performance on the job.   

Furlough vs Layoffs 
What’s the difference between a furlough and a layoff? 
While both terms indicate a period of inactivity for workers, there are differences between the two. Furloughed workers are sent home without pay for a period of time but remain on the books as employees. This allows the furloughed individual to continued access to the health care benefits unless the loss in hours causes them to be dropped from their group health plan. Furloughed employees can also apply for unemployment benefits.  

Laid-off employees, on the other hand, are officially separated from their employer until they may be hired back (should that ever occur.) They are entitled to any final pay, vacation, and other payouts due upon exiting the company. Though they may be able to stay on with the group health plan through COBRA, that cost will come out of pocket. Laid-off workers can apply for unemployment and look for other work.  

WARN Act 
What do I have to follow/ do in accordance with the WARN act? 
Under the provisions of the WARN Act, employers with more than 100 employees are required to provide 60 days’ notice if there are to be layoffs of more than 50 employees, or if said employees are to have their hours reduced by more than 50 percent. There are exceptions to this rule for layoffs shorter than six months, as well as in instances when the company is beset by “unforeseen business circumstances”. With our changing circumstances, if your company falls into the category covered by the WARN Act, ask questions of your lawyer before any layoffs. 


Programs and Resources 
Are there programs/resources I can use instead of laying off employees? 
Some may try to avoid layoffs by introducing alternatives that allow the entire workforce to stay in place. Work-sharing is an option whereby employees take a reduction in both hours and pay in order for everyone to stay employed. In addition, those employees may apply for pro-rated unemployment benefits.  

Employers can also consider temporary cuts to non-essential benefits to preserve cash. And potentially those moving to remote work may at least save on utility bills for their offices. There is also the option of applying for an SBA Disaster Loan for the money needed to make payroll during this period.   

Unpaid Leave 
What steps do I need to take in order to place an employee on temporary unpaid leave? 
If you’re placing employees on temporary unpaid leave, you would do well to communicate that decision clearly in advance. Seek legal advice on the proper wording to ensure that you’re not terminating the employee while also not giving a binding offer for return to work or guarantee of coming back.  Consider offering employees placed on leave an Unemployment Compensation Notice, as well as information on how to apply for unemployment benefits during this period.    

Unemployment Benefits 
Should I encourage my employees to apply for unemployment? 
Employers should encourage all eligible employees to apply for unemployment benefits, particularly during this time when finding new employment may prove challenging. Under the CARES Act, unemployment benefits are increased by $600 a week for up to four months — much-needed assistance for those unable to work during the pandemic. 


No one wishes to deal with layoffs and unemployment, but the economic realities of the moment are forcing employers into unpleasant decisions. Working through employment rules about layoffs can be difficult however a LegalShield small business plan provides you access to lawyers with the knowledge to guide you through these rough times.
