MY TAKE

BECOME A REAL ESTATE INVESTING MONEY MAGNET IN 12 EASY STEPS BY JOSH CANTWELL, CEO, FREELAND VENTURES

When I got started and began recruiting and raising capital for real estate, my first private lender was my brother’s mother-in-law. Now I have so much conviction about what we are doing and the returns I can produce for people, I have no problem having every single person that I know and meet investing with us. People say, if you have a business, would you put your mother’s money in it? My answer is absolutely

yes. If you could answer yes to that, then everybody around you, your family friends and business associates, are going to invest with you. Compensation drives behavior. The only people that don’t really care about compensation are monks and priests. But for most of us, we need money. We need money to pay the bills to take care of our kids, spouse whatever it is.

And we need to make money. We are not financially independent yet.

And so for those of you that need it, it becomes, well, how can I get more of it? How can I just have more without taking more risk? Or how can I have more without much more effort? And when you are lender that’s what it comes down to.
