DS08 | 23 Years Young, First Flip, $36K P-R-O-F-I-T | Mitchell Classen

Get your FREE BOOK on us: www.audibletrial.com/Dwellynn

Mitchell started working for a custom builder right out of college and saw a lot of high end custom homes being built first hand, so that was a great experience for Mitchell. In addition, he had the opportunity to see a handful of projects from start to finish. The entrepreneur flair is probably from his family, as everyone in his family is self employed, so going to work for someone after school was a necessary thing to do just to get some experience, but always wanted to do something on his own though he wasn't aware it will be Real Estate.

Prior to working with the custom builder, Mitchell would work on construction sites and some office work for big commercial projects, so by the time he started working full time with the custom builder Mitchell had the experience to handle bigger projects and was given the opportunity to do just that. Consequently, it has been helpful knowing what it takes to build a home from start to finish, from the planning stages to completion. Mitchell completed his degree in construction science and management, which made his experience ever so more interesting.

Mitchell discussed about how he learnt a lot on his first flip when it's your own project and your own money, and there is no experience or books that you can read that can replace the hands on experience of actually flipping a house on your own.

HOW HE FOUND AND FUNDED HIS FIRST DEAL Listening to BiggerPockets, Mitchell heard about driving for dollars so equipped with his car he went to work driving his neighborhood for deals.

He used a Cash-out Refi and HELOC on that first property to buy his second investment property, a Triplex - also 20 min from NYC. Together the two properties appraise for $1Million dollars, and will gross over $100k in annual rents. He is madly in love with his Wife and has two young boys.

Though he was married with a 6-month baby, Sunny is so determined to start the financial freedom journey that he and his family lived with his parents, saving half of he and his wife's income in one year. They achieved this by cutting their own hair and not going out to restaurant in that one year. In addition to that, they took their own lunch to work and bought cheap used cars.

In addition, Sunny sells pacifiers (binky) via the Amazon FBA program, grossing $30k in passive income last year on Amazon.

What does the future look like for Sunny Burns? Sunny wants to spread the knowledge of personal finance, financial freedom, being frugal, and living with purpose. His goal is to help people who want to escape the rat race and not working pay check to pay check.

QUICK ROUND QUESTIONS What makes Sunny Burns UNIQUE? What has made you successful, and makes you different from the guy OR girl? Differentiating trait?

Sunny says he gets things done, and there is a roadblock he just go around it. In addition, he would research over and over again if something didn't work, asking himself what’s next?

So, what was the last book that you read? And what did you learn from the book? Last Book: The One Thing by Gary Keller. Sunny learnt about focusing on the one most important task rather than focusing on a million things at the same time.

So, what do you for fun? How do you enjoy your free time? Sunny loves volleyball, Frisbee, snowboarding, bare foot running and listening to audiobooks.

DS03 | From corporate jobs to full time real estate investing | Kyara & Khalil

Kyara and Khalil started their financial freedom journey in real estate in 2012 buying their first property in Hartford, CT, but they relocated back to Baltimore, MD to settle. After getting into the real world, they quickly realized that the corporate or 9-5 wasn't exactly what they wanted long term, so they spent a lot of time talking about what their goals were and where they saw themselves going and eventually decided that Entrepreneurship within the Real Estate space was for them. A lot of what drive them to real Estate was the ability to make positive change in the communities in which they invest. In addition, keeping that why at the forefront is what kept them pushing forward.

Kyara bought her first property one year out of college in Hartford, CT. Kyara and Khalil purchased the property for $26,000 with the intent of wholesaling it, but quickly realized that they didn't understand the basics of the areas and the other elements that came with wholesaling. So, they shifted gears and rehabbed the house with the help of a local charity. The renovation cost was $120,000 and bring around $2,500/month, and the house is now worth about $200,000. So, they now have the natural appreciation as well as the forced appreciation from the rehab. The Buy and Hold strategy really aligns with the model of community building as well as long term wealth building.

For those considering to invest in Baltimore but aren't sure, Khalil says the are a lot of institutions, a great art scene, and a beautiful harbor making Baltimore what it is.

Kyara and Khalil still continues to use BiggerPockets.

Kyara quit her job in June 2016, and she mentioned that the fear is big and significant, but what they did was ensured that their rental portfolio had the level of income and stability to be able to pay for their monthly expenses before spinning out.

Kyara and Khalil continue to give back to their immediate community by helping their tenants with resume building and credit repair. They consider themselves landlords with a conscience.
