What You REALLY Need To Know About CROWDFUNDING In Real Estate - YouTube

One of the hottest topics in real estate today is "Does crowdfunding apply?"
[5]
Crowdfunding is basically where people can pull their money together and put it
[10]
in business. They can put it in real estate. They can put it towards deals.
[13]
Bottom line is that we live in such a small world today with technology that
[17]
people can come together and make deals happen that couldn't before. So today, I'm
[22]
going to answer the question, "Does crowdfunding apply only to business? Or
[25]
does it in fact apply also to the game of real estate?" Because I'm going to share
[29]
with you today one of my favorite methods for bringing people together to
[33]
get amazing deals with 25% ROI is done that wouldn't have options otherwise.
[42]
If you're burning a great ROI, that means you're getting a 5 to 1 leverage.
[63]
I'm going to break down how we're doing.
[78]
Okay. So, let me break it down. First of all, we have to start with what is
[81]
crowdfunding. First of all, it's kind of like the word sounds. Crowds, groups of
[87]
people come together and they each put in a certain amount of money and
[90]
collectively, there's enough money for a venture to get underway. A lot of people
[95]
are applying this to business ideas. And there's a lot of ways that people are
[99]
using this technology. And today, we're going to answer whether people are actually
[102]
doing this in real estate. The reality is we are doing this in real estate because
[106]
I am doing it. I'm going to break down how we're doing it. Typically, when you buy a
[110]
real estate, let's say that you wanted to own a property. There are 2 components
[114]
to doing that. Someone's got to put up money and
[117]
someone's got to put a credit. If you're going to buy a property with leverage. For
[121]
example, let's a property costs $250,000. Instead of writing a check for
[126]
$250,000, you can go to the bank and say "Bank, you put up 80% of the money. I'll
[132]
put 20% of the money." Which means that you're only bringing 50 grand at the
[136]
table instead of two hundred and fifty grand to the table.
[138]
Real estate is beautiful because if you're earning of great ROI, that means
[142]
you're getting a 5 to 1 leverage. But if you're buying it to live in for
[146]
yourself, the leverage is even higher. You can put down maybe 3% or 5%. And the bank
[151]
will carry the rest of the loan. Still, there's a lot of people that want to get
[156]
in the game however and they say, "Kris, if I want to do that, I got to bring
[160]
credit to the table. And either my credit isn't good enough or I don't want to max
[163]
up my debt to income ratio." Or for whatever reason, maybe you're too young.
[167]
Maybe there's... You've changed jobs. Banks have a number of reasons why you can't
[172]
actually use your credit. Some of you are international and you want to buy real
[176]
estate in the United States. You say, "Well, that may not work either." So, there is a
[180]
type of crowdfunding that we do inside the United States. There's a way for us
[185]
to actually bring people's money together and have enough (all of a sudden)
[190]
to actually move banks out of the game and actually buy homes cash. So, first of
[196]
all, this is kind of exciting because $250,000 for one person might be a lot
[200]
to bring to the table. But for a group of people, they can take
[204]
it down. Now, there is a problem however if you buy real estate cash. If you buy
[209]
real estate cash, the ROI tends to go down. Because leverage brings your ROI up.
[215]
The less money you bring in for that same amount of profits brings you a
[219]
higher ROI. If you put all the cash down and get that same ROI, that profit is
[226]
going to look smaller proportion to what you put out.
[228]
Hence the smaller return on investment. So, how do you work around
[232]
that? Here's the beautiful thing about the way real estate works: You can
[247]
literally have a group of people come in, buy a home cash but then go back to the
[254]
banks and say, "We own this asset outright. Now, we're going to ask you to give 60%
[260]
of our money back and we're not going to use anyone's personal credit." And banks
[264]
will do that. It's called asset based and lending. And it's really easy to do when
[269]
you're basically pulling money out of a project. So, one of the things that I do
[273]
with people is people find me on YouTube like this, they learn about all of the
[277]
things that we're doing. They click my links below. They get with my team and
[280]
anytime you ever find that there's a credit hurdle, your credits not developed,
[285]
underdeveloped maybe it's been hurt for some reason. Maybe you live in Saudi
[290]
Arabia, maybe you live in in some other distant country. And the banks in America
[295]
won't acknowledge your establishment of credit to actually buy the house. What we
[301]
do in a situation like that is we can aggregate all this money, pull it
[305]
together. We can technically go out there. We can buy these homes cash and then we
[309]
can go back to the banks and say, "Now, we want you to give money back to us based
[313]
on asset based refinances." And what that does is that gives our money back to go
[318]
and do it again. And it means at the end of the day that we're still able to get
[322]
those 20, 25, 30 percent ROIs but we're not necessarily beholding to the banks and
[329]
playing their games. So, this is one of the beautiful things that we found in
[332]
the game of real estate is that crowdfunding, it's real, it works and it's
[337]
a way for everybody to get in the game. Now, if you're watching this and asking
[341]
yourself, "Alright, what can I do with this information?" There's a couple things that
[345]
you can know. First of all, be educated and know that you and others can come
[349]
together and put money together to make projects happen. 2, you can go out there and
[353]
start googling and finding groups that are doing this crowdfunding and real
[357]
estate because it absolutely exists. 3, if you've been watching my channel
[362]
and we've become buddies over the last a little bit and you want to know what
[366]
that would look like to actually be partnered with me on some real estate
[369]
deals, I have a document that shows my last 4,000 projects. We are
[374]
averaging on about a billion dollars worth of real estate around a
[377]
25% annual ROI. So, if you compare that to like the stock market's
[382]
7% or a 401k even a smaller percent, those institutions will let you
[388]
double your money and maybe 15 years. We're doing it here every handful
[392]
years just because of our experience and knowing what we're doing. And we've got
[397]
ways for people to come together to make deals happen. So, if you want to learn
[400]
more about that, there's a link below. You can talk to members of our team and let
[404]
them know that you're interested in getting in the game of real estate. And
[407]
here's my commitment to everyone I work with: Whether you do have credit or you
[411]
don't have workable credit, it never matters to me. I never allow credit or
[415]
even money to get in the way of actually getting out there and building wealth. In
[419]
fact, the first 1.6 million dollars I made that produce my first 6-figure
[424]
residual income, I used less than $10,000 out of my pocket to
[428]
make that happen. Because I was a deal maker that would put the people with
[432]
money and the people with credit together. I bring the deal and we would
[435]
make magic happen. Now, 15 years later, same thing. Just doing it on a much
[439]
bigger wider scale with people all over the globe. So, if you're asking "Does this
[444]
work in Zimbabwe or does this
[447]
work in Tokyo?" I don't know the real estate market there. But I do know that
[451]
you can come here and play the game with us and bottom line is get those really
[454]
amazing ROIs. If you want to learn more about that, you
[457]
got to speak to a member of my team. And there's link in the description below or
[461]
you can actually learn about how to do that. Hey, guys. Thank you so much for
