Episode Highlights:

[01:44] Shifting Gears to Passive Investments

Jordan ventured into house hacking after starting a successful business. His interest in maximizing his capital growth led him to build a real estate sales team. His struggle to find good active investments convinced Jordan to use his wealth passively.

He conducted due diligence with the following factors in mind:

• Integrity of the partnership
• Reasonability of the business plan
• Familiarity with the area of investment

[07:53] Managing Returns and Expectations

He expects a lesser monetary return in passive investment. There is more wealth in active businesses, but they also take more work.

The value of depreciation benefits real estate professionals. It equates to a lower tax bill.

[10:46] The Diversity of Return Metrics

If you’re living off passive investments, cash on cash return is a vital metric. However, you need to look at various return metrics, too. You can look at equity growth and tax benefits from depreciation if you aim to grow your wealth.

[14:18] Becoming an Angel Investor

Jordan recently invested in an AI smart chatbot. He uses this product to drive leads on his wholesaling website. 

Supporting a business with an intangible product is risky. He looks at private investments as a wise “gamble.”

[18:07] Plan Ahead

Jordan wants to continue building his business to generate more revenue for the company and its employees. He also plans to build their home-buying company alongside his passive investment.

Accreditation in passive investments unlocks more options for investments. Encompassed with legal structure, accredited investments usually have smaller buy-ins.

[22:38] Jordan’s Advice for Starting Strong

Having a great system of managing money and wealth is foundational. Keeping expenses low and owning an investment account helped Jordan pile up his wealth efficiently.

Notable Quotes from the Episode:

[12:44] “I love real estate because there are so many different ways that you make money that is not just equity growth. There aren’t such wild swings in values compared to the stock market.”
