climbing the ladder of success

When immigrants get to the United States of America, they are made to believe that money grows in trees. Unfortunately, money doesn’t grow on trees. People do whatever it takes to ensure they get the money.  On this episode, I have the pleasure of hosting Krzysztof Warchol. He is the owner of Estate Solution. When he first came to America in 1996, Krzysztof took odd jobs to make ends meet. He has worked as a salesman, janitor, limo driver, and real estate investor.  Krzysztof’s story is enough evidence that we can achieve anything if we have the right mindset. In this episode, Krzysztof shares how he transitioned from one role to another until he got to where he is today.  Listen and get motivated.  Quotes from the Episode: “Never give up. When you set the goal, when you set the target, go for it.” “When you decide to do something, you need to be consistent.” “I’m trying to teach my children how to make their money work for them.” “Never give up guys. It cannot be worse than it already is.” Connect: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krzysztof-warchol-b85007170/

Travis Baucom is a real estate investor in Waco, TX, focused on self-storage syndications. He has been investing in real estate for years in single-family residential properties and recently made his way into commercial, specifically in self-storage properties. Listen to this episode to learn more about Travis, his transition from single-family to multifamily, and what he has learned along the way! Quotables “When you look at deals, you need to be underwriting them a lot more conservatively than you have in the past.” “Attorneys, property managers, maintenance guys – all that can be contracted out so it’s not on your payroll.” “The great thing is storage pays so well, cash flow wise. We don’t have to buy a property this year to continue our lifestyle.” “There are 3,000 facilities in America – 70% of those are owned by mom-and-pop and the ones that aren’t, 80% of those are owned by companies that are publicly traded on Wall Street.” “What you did is the same advice I give everyone. It’s really first aid, it’s triage. Stop the bleeding, protect the wound, treat for shock.” “Sometimes, you just have to understand that the good deal is just getting out of there.” Links Website: RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast Website: REI INK https://rei-ink.com/ Website: Travis Baucom https://www.housetoempire.com
