11
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,644
[casey_]: fits like a glove and that is
how

12
00:00:32,622 --> 00:00:32,703
[dan_handford]: ah

13
00:00:32,684 --> 00:00:37,752
[casey_]: to become a master at real estate
investing because this guy has absolutely killed it

14
00:00:37,792 --> 00:00:41,939
[casey_]: the last three or four years and
i just those of us that have been

15
00:00:41,979 --> 00:00:45,044
[casey_]: watching from afar down were really just
kind

16
00:00:45,077 --> 00:00:45,098
[dan_handford]: m

17
00:00:45,104 --> 00:00:50,196
[casey_]: of admiring everything you're doing and pulling
some pulling some of these funds and and

18
00:00:50,658 --> 00:00:53,005
[casey_]: and really pulling the strings of getting
investors

19
00:00:53,101 --> 00:00:53,285
[dan_handford]: yeah

20
00:00:53,266 --> 00:00:59,027
[casey_]: from like everywhere that's what that's what
i think is most intriguing to me is

21
00:00:59,208 --> 00:01:03,074
[casey_]: that you're just as likely to get
an investor that walks by your building there

22
00:01:03,134 --> 00:01:06,079
[casey_]: in charlotte and says oh hey dan
i'd like to invest with you as you

24
00:01:11,228 --> 00:01:12,069
[casey_]: mean that the

25
00:01:12,031 --> 00:01:12,518
[dan_handford]: hm

26
00:01:12,209 --> 00:01:15,174
[casey_]: network that you've built has is really

27
00:01:15,278 --> 00:01:15,580
[dan_handford]: oh

28
00:01:15,315 --> 00:01:19,341
[casey_]: intriguing so why don't you kind of
start out and tell us bit about like

29
00:01:19,882 --> 00:01:22,645
[casey_]: what got you started how did you
get started because a lot of people are

30
00:01:22,685 --> 00:01:24,648
[casey_]: just kind of stuck right there you
know what i mean

31
00:01:25,551 --> 00:01:28,857
[dan_handford]: yeah yeah so you i appreciate you
having beyond case looking forward to sharing with

32
00:01:28,877 --> 00:01:33,865
[dan_handford]: your audience here and providing as much
value as possible one of the the things

33
00:01:33,985 --> 00:01:38,493
[dan_handford]: that i used to do in and
in my past is is kyrpractic i'm actually

34
00:01:38,533 --> 00:01:40,576
[dan_handford]: a kyrepractor by trade you

35
00:01:40,580 --> 00:01:41,105
[casey_]: trusting

36
00:01:40,616 --> 00:01:43,862
[dan_handford]: know several people know a lot of
pople don't even know that but went to

37
00:01:43,922 --> 00:01:48,970
[dan_handford]: school to be a kyrepractor started my
own clinic grew those clinic to four locations

38
00:01:49,251 --> 00:01:53,458
[dan_handford]: and started to integrate medicine into those
clinics and even now today my wife and

39
00:01:53,518 --> 00:01:57,945
[dan_handford]: i own for those four clinics their
hundred percent debt free the cash flow very

40
00:01:58,025 --> 00:02:00,990
[dan_handford]: nicely and so that it's a problem
which is called taxes

41
00:02:01,410 --> 00:02:02,700
[casey_]: yeah

42
00:02:01,631 --> 00:02:02,853
[dan_handford]: when you cash flow nicely

43
00:02:03,411 --> 00:02:03,553
[casey_]: yep

44
00:02:03,795 --> 00:02:07,401
[dan_handford]: so you kind of get that penalty
of having to paying money to the government

45
00:02:07,441 --> 00:02:10,606
[dan_handford]: for taxes and so of course i
put me down a path to try to

46
00:02:10,646 --> 00:02:15,394
[dan_handford]: figure out how can i keep more
of what i'm earning and real estate really

47
00:02:15,454 --> 00:02:19,060
[dan_handford]: was that ticket and so back in
two thousand eighteen i decided to step away

48
00:02:19,161 --> 00:02:20,883
[dan_handford]: full time from the management of my
clinics

49
00:02:21,180 --> 00:02:21,200
[casey_]: m

50
00:02:21,645 --> 00:02:25,371
[dan_handford]: promoted my c o o at the
time the c o he's still the current

51
00:02:25,471 --> 00:02:29,778
[dan_handford]: acting co in place right now and
it's done a great job maintaining those clinics

52
00:02:29,838 --> 00:02:34,085
[dan_handford]: for us you know i won't say
it's been an easy kind of transition but

53
00:02:34,126 --> 00:02:36,870
[dan_handford]: it's been it's been a good try
sisson right becase it's allowed me to focus

54
00:02:36,910 --> 00:02:39,414
[dan_handford]: on the real estate side of things
and and grow

55
00:02:39,180 --> 00:02:39,406
[casey_]: oh

56
00:02:39,695 --> 00:02:44,142
[dan_handford]: our real estate portfolio from really nothing
because i had no experience in real estate

57
00:02:44,182 --> 00:02:48,730
[dan_handford]: other than know lasting a few buildings
or bind my primary eident but haven't i

58
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:53,458
[dan_handford]: did not actually do any type of
real estate investing prior to founding and getting

59
00:02:53,518 --> 00:02:59,267
[dan_handford]: started with passive investing dot com and
know what we decided to do is for

60
00:02:59,388 --> 00:03:02,493
[dan_handford]: stoff read a lot of books do
a lot of research listen to a lot

61
00:03:02,533 --> 00:03:07,020
[dan_handford]: of podcasts you really kind of absorb
the information i did that for probably about

62
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:12,368
[dan_handford]: a year and a half before really
stepped out and did anything full time but

63
00:03:12,448 --> 00:03:16,074
[dan_handford]: in february of two thousand eighteen is
when i stepped away full time to be

64
00:03:16,114 --> 00:03:20,401
[dan_handford]: able to really focus on on the
real estate side of things and started to

65
00:03:20,441 --> 00:03:24,368
[dan_handford]: do some of my own passive l
p investments my wife and i have a

66
00:03:24,428 --> 00:03:28,695
[dan_handford]: portfolio right now of just over seventy
l p positions with

67
00:03:28,651 --> 00:03:28,711
[casey_]: oh

68
00:03:28,755 --> 00:03:28,936
[dan_handford]: about

69
00:03:28,792 --> 00:03:28,954
[casey_]: wow

70
00:03:29,036 --> 00:03:33,203
[dan_handford]: seventeen different operators so we've been building
that up over time and did that in

71
00:03:33,243 --> 00:03:37,650
[dan_handford]: the very beginning and that also led
us into the mentor that we hired so

72
00:03:37,690 --> 00:03:40,435
[dan_handford]: we hired on a mentor and we
wanted to make sure we hired somebody that

73
00:03:40,455 --> 00:03:43,340
[dan_handford]: was already doing what we wanted to
do and was already where we wanted to

74
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:43,480
[dan_handford]: be

75
00:03:43,940 --> 00:03:44,084
[casey_]: yep

76
00:03:43,981 --> 00:03:47,166
[dan_handford]: and so we strategically hired this person
to build a help us reduce the learning

77
00:03:47,206 --> 00:03:51,313
[dan_handford]: curve learn the ropes and then be
able to build out the platform that we

78
00:03:51,373 --> 00:03:54,979
[dan_handford]: have today that allows us to be
able to raise capital and you know the

79
00:03:54,999 --> 00:03:58,925
[dan_handford]: very beginning at's been very it was
very challenging to raise capital right you know

80
00:03:59,466 --> 00:04:03,513
[dan_handford]: in two thousand team we ended up
raising just over i want to ay it

81
00:04:03,533 --> 00:04:08,041
[dan_handford]: was just over four million dollars that
first year first twelve months so i really

82
00:04:08,101 --> 00:04:11,166
[dan_handford]: guess ten months since i started kind
of in that february time for if you

83
00:04:11,206 --> 00:04:11,366
[dan_handford]: will

84
00:04:11,820 --> 00:04:11,942
[casey_]: sure

85
00:04:12,228 --> 00:04:16,101
[dan_handford]: that first year we raised right around
that four million dollars worth and then in

86
00:04:16,161 --> 00:04:21,112
[dan_handford]: two thousand and nineteen we ended up
raising thirty two million

87
00:04:21,781 --> 00:04:21,965
[casey_]: wow

88
00:04:21,893 --> 00:04:27,423
[dan_handford]: and twenty twenty we ended up doubling
that or almost almost doubling that we at

89
00:04:27,703 --> 00:04:28,564
[dan_handford]: sixty one million

90
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:29,224
[casey_]: okay

91
00:04:29,406 --> 00:04:31,690
[dan_handford]: and twenty twenty that's the pandemic and
then

92
00:04:31,730 --> 00:04:31,872
[casey_]: yep

93
00:04:31,770 --> 00:04:35,496
[dan_handford]: in twenty twenty one ended up raising
just last year a little over a hundred

94
00:04:35,536 --> 00:04:40,705
[dan_handford]: and ninety six million and this year
right now we're right at the end of

95
00:04:40,885 --> 00:04:45,292
[dan_handford]: august of twenty twenty two and we've
raised just over two hundred and twenty five

96
00:04:45,352 --> 00:04:47,115
[dan_handford]: million already this year and so

97
00:04:47,061 --> 00:04:47,224
[casey_]: wow

98
00:04:47,216 --> 00:04:51,362
[dan_handford]: we're on track to of course you
know super surpassing you know i think we'll

99
00:04:51,383 --> 00:04:54,147
[dan_handford]: get to the point of doubling the
number from last year but you know definitely

100
00:04:53,970 --> 00:04:54,132
[casey_]: sure

101
00:04:54,227 --> 00:04:57,734
[dan_handford]: sure passing that number and growing from
year over year and continuing to see that

102
00:04:57,775 --> 00:05:02,685
[dan_handford]: consistency and to today we've acquired just
over about one point three one point four

103
00:05:02,745 --> 00:05:03,466
[dan_handford]: billion in assets

104
00:05:04,140 --> 00:05:10,932
[casey_]: wow now i hope the listeners see
why i selected how to become a master

105
00:05:11,092 --> 00:05:11,593
[casey_]: at real estate

106
00:05:11,468 --> 00:05:12,516
[dan_handford]: uh

107
00:05:11,633 --> 00:05:16,882
[casey_]: investing right because you know there are
so many people that get hung up and

108
00:05:17,483 --> 00:05:18,424
[casey_]: and you know when we're

109
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:18,401
[dan_handford]: ah

110
00:05:18,464 --> 00:05:22,250
[casey_]: looking at like you said four mile
when you're talking about four million dollars

111
00:05:22,529 --> 00:05:22,549
[dan_handford]: m

112
00:05:22,872 --> 00:05:29,664
[casey_]: raised from february eighteen through the end
of the year then you're talking about four

113
00:05:29,784 --> 00:05:34,111
[casey_]: hundred mile just just you know let
me

114
00:05:34,238 --> 00:05:35,828
[dan_handford]: yeah

115
00:05:34,692 --> 00:05:37,354
[casey_]: appeal to that i know it's probably
not going to be four hundred million but

116
00:05:37,895 --> 00:05:40,877
[casey_]: the fact of the matter is you're
not probably not going miss four hundred by

117
00:05:40,997 --> 00:05:41,278
[casey_]: much

118
00:05:41,858 --> 00:05:42,728
[dan_handford]: yeah

119
00:05:42,038 --> 00:05:44,991
[casey_]: and so when you look at a
hundred

120
00:05:44,722 --> 00:05:44,742
[dan_handford]: o

121
00:05:45,091 --> 00:05:51,838
[casey_]: times basically from where you started through
today man i mean the scale that's involved

122
00:05:51,918 --> 00:06:00,181
[casey_]: there is just really mind boggling um
and that's like

123
00:06:00,158 --> 00:06:01,268
[dan_handford]: oh

124
00:06:00,261 --> 00:06:02,125
[casey_]: i think so many people try to
scale

125
00:06:02,168 --> 00:06:02,370
[dan_handford]: oh

126
00:06:02,245 --> 00:06:04,268
[casey_]: before they ever raise like for instance
let's

127
00:06:04,457 --> 00:06:04,478
[dan_handford]: m

128
00:06:04,629 --> 00:06:08,235
[casey_]: your for your first four millions basically
drop in the bucket but i think

129
00:06:08,111 --> 00:06:08,798
[dan_handford]: hm

130
00:06:08,295 --> 00:06:09,076
[casey_]: a lot of people start

131
00:06:09,128 --> 00:06:10,178
[dan_handford]: yeah

132
00:06:09,156 --> 00:06:11,660
[casey_]: focusing on okay what am i going
to do when i can raise hundred million

133
00:06:11,741 --> 00:06:14,986
[casey_]: well instead of worrying about that why
don't you worry about raising

134
00:06:15,008 --> 00:06:15,249
[dan_handford]: yeah

135
00:06:15,307 --> 00:06:18,251
[casey_]: the first four dollars then four hundred
then four

136
00:06:18,308 --> 00:06:18,328
[dan_handford]: m

137
00:06:18,352 --> 00:06:23,770
[casey_]: thousand and so on and so on
so what challenges were there

138
00:06:24,308 --> 00:06:25,100
[dan_handford]: oh

139
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,432
[casey_]: between february first of that year and
the end of the year what challenges arose

140
00:06:29,512 --> 00:06:31,838
[casey_]: for raising just even the first four
million

141
00:06:32,318 --> 00:06:35,601
[dan_handford]: yeah so i would say the first
one was trying to find our first deal

142
00:06:35,801 --> 00:06:37,863
[dan_handford]: right because you can't raise money unless
you have a deal

143
00:06:38,201 --> 00:06:38,383
[casey_]: try

144
00:06:38,343 --> 00:06:41,746
[dan_handford]: and so that was probably the biggest
challenge s trying to find the deal and

145
00:06:41,786 --> 00:06:44,990
[dan_handford]: of course the second challenge is trying
to find the money right

146
00:06:45,140 --> 00:06:45,281
[casey_]: yep

147
00:06:45,651 --> 00:06:48,977
[dan_handford]: trying to find the investors that are
willing to trust you put money into a

148
00:06:49,037 --> 00:06:50,199
[dan_handford]: project and you know

149
00:06:50,171 --> 00:06:50,353
[casey_]: yeah

150
00:06:50,379 --> 00:06:53,805
[dan_handford]: obviously when we were in the bar
beginning stages we didn't really have a track

151
00:06:53,925 --> 00:06:58,072
[dan_handford]: record right as far as real estate
was concerned we had a business track record

152
00:06:58,112 --> 00:07:02,058
[dan_handford]: and success in that and so we
can we know that that translation from business

153
00:07:02,098 --> 00:07:06,366
[dan_handford]: success into real estate you know definitely
is at play there but a lot of

154
00:07:06,446 --> 00:07:08,950
[dan_handford]: investors were like you know i'm gonna
sit on the slide line i'm going to

155
00:07:09,010 --> 00:07:13,437
[dan_handford]: watch you because this is your very
first project that you're putting together right and

156
00:07:13,340 --> 00:07:13,443
[casey_]: yep

157
00:07:13,518 --> 00:07:17,344
[dan_handford]: so what we what we did before
we put our very first project together is

158
00:07:17,865 --> 00:07:20,850
[dan_handford]: like i said i hired a man
to work learned a lot of the steps

159
00:07:20,890 --> 00:07:25,157
[dan_handford]: in the in the ropes and then
we started to do some l p or

160
00:07:25,277 --> 00:07:30,546
[dan_handford]: passive investing ourselves first and then we
actually started in our first two projects with

161
00:07:30,686 --> 00:07:36,235
[dan_handford]: cog ped partnered with another operator to
be able to build our track record build

162
00:07:36,295 --> 00:07:41,384
[dan_handford]: our credibility not only with investors but
also with the local brokers and the sellers

163
00:07:41,444 --> 00:07:45,331
[dan_handford]: to build a build confidence in our
group that we can actually perform on what

164
00:07:45,391 --> 00:07:48,836
[dan_handford]: they said we are telling them that
we could do you know cause

165
00:07:48,750 --> 00:07:48,892
[casey_]: yep

166
00:07:49,417 --> 00:07:53,224
[dan_handford]: our very first project that we put
together ourselves was a hunderd and thirty unit

167
00:07:53,344 --> 00:07:58,172
[dan_handford]: asset out of greenville south carolina eight
point nine million dollar acquisition and we ended

168
00:07:58,192 --> 00:08:01,998
[dan_handford]: up raising about two and a half
million for that one project and for us

169
00:08:02,098 --> 00:08:04,823
[dan_handford]: you know it was a big project
because that was the very first deal we

170
00:08:04,863 --> 00:08:07,367
[dan_handford]: have done two and a half million
was a big check for us to be

171
00:08:07,387 --> 00:08:10,653
[dan_handford]: able commit to and we had never
raised that amount before the most we had

172
00:08:10,713 --> 00:08:13,858
[dan_handford]: ever raised was about half a million
dollars for one of our projects that we

173
00:08:13,878 --> 00:08:18,285
[dan_handford]: had done with one of partners and
so to be able to kind of build

174
00:08:18,326 --> 00:08:21,372
[dan_handford]: that trick record in credibility was worth
it to us to part with those groups

175
00:08:21,693 --> 00:08:24,220
[dan_handford]: and then to be able to do
it on our own and have that confidence

176
00:08:24,300 --> 00:08:26,866
[dan_handford]: going into that project that we could
actually perform on it

177
00:08:27,610 --> 00:08:31,697
[casey_]: now i want to go back you
i want to i want you to kind

178
00:08:31,737 --> 00:08:34,582
[casey_]: of define this partnership with those groups
because

179
00:08:34,808 --> 00:08:35,073
[dan_handford]: oh

180
00:08:34,983 --> 00:08:38,649
[casey_]: what i think you're giving here is
is really the

181
00:08:38,948 --> 00:08:39,168
[dan_handford]: yeah

182
00:08:39,194 --> 00:08:44,447
[casey_]: ah like almost a microscopic view of
the beginning steps that i think a

183
00:08:44,528 --> 00:08:46,358
[dan_handford]: oh

184
00:08:44,567 --> 00:08:51,458
[casey_]: lot of people need to take in
order to get even started right so why

185
00:08:51,518 --> 00:08:56,467
[casey_]: don't you talk like dissect that first
co g p part for us

186
00:08:56,408 --> 00:08:56,633
[dan_handford]: yeah

187
00:08:56,927 --> 00:09:01,575
[casey_]: and then how that developed and then
was it ultimately at the end of the

188
00:09:01,635 --> 00:09:07,145
[casey_]: day profitable for you all obviously you
you know or was

189
00:09:07,067 --> 00:09:07,088
[dan_handford]: m

190
00:09:07,225 --> 00:09:09,709
[casey_]: it break even or was it he
we can go into this we

191
00:09:09,668 --> 00:09:09,850
[dan_handford]: oh

192
00:09:09,749 --> 00:09:12,053
[casey_]: can raise this money we can make
a little bit of money but we can

193
00:09:12,153 --> 00:09:12,353
[casey_]: also

194
00:09:12,368 --> 00:09:12,631
[dan_handford]: yeah

195
00:09:12,453 --> 00:09:14,417
[casey_]: make a lot of experience what was

196
00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:14,490
[dan_handford]: m

197
00:09:14,617 --> 00:09:16,039
[casey_]: you know some some of that kind
of stuff

198
00:09:16,738 --> 00:09:20,204
[dan_handford]: really for us we really didn't even
care if we made money on that partnership

199
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:19,982
[casey_]: yeah

200
00:09:20,324 --> 00:09:24,070
[dan_handford]: but from the partnership perspective it was
a group that we had a prior real

201
00:09:24,090 --> 00:09:29,580
[dan_handford]: existing relationship with we already knew them
we we had invested with impassible before and

202
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:34,027
[dan_handford]: so we kind of ourselves personally already
knew them so you know to me i

203
00:09:34,047 --> 00:09:35,109
[dan_handford]: don't ever want to just

204
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:35,745
[casey_]: yeah

205
00:09:35,610 --> 00:09:37,252
[dan_handford]: go and uh

206
00:09:37,650 --> 00:09:38,000
[casey_]: my

207
00:09:37,753 --> 00:09:41,459
[dan_handford]: uh i don't want to just go
partner with them just because i want to

208
00:09:41,499 --> 00:09:42,201
[dan_handford]: make money right

209
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:42,462
[casey_]: sure

210
00:09:42,501 --> 00:09:42,962
[dan_handford]: i want to make sure

211
00:09:42,864 --> 00:09:43,026
[casey_]: sure

212
00:09:42,982 --> 00:09:47,489
[dan_handford]: that i know them i trust them
i know what their level of communication is

213
00:09:47,850 --> 00:09:52,117
[dan_handford]: in their processes because if i'm going
to bring on my investors to invest with

214
00:09:52,157 --> 00:09:55,262
[dan_handford]: them i want to make sure that
that i have the same level of confidence

215
00:09:55,302 --> 00:09:57,987
[dan_handford]: in that other group and so in
the beginning you know we like i said

216
00:09:58,027 --> 00:10:01,413
[dan_handford]: we didn't have any deals that we
ever put up together and so to build

217
00:10:01,453 --> 00:10:06,689
[dan_handford]: that track and experience and gain gain
the ex our necessary we were able to

218
00:10:06,729 --> 00:10:09,293
[dan_handford]: part with those groups and we did
make some money because you know we get

219
00:10:09,333 --> 00:10:12,959
[dan_handford]: a share of the acquisition fee and
share of the asset management fees and with

220
00:10:12,999 --> 00:10:17,086
[dan_handford]: that that asset has now already sold
and gone full cycle and so we were

221
00:10:17,466 --> 00:10:20,921
[dan_handford]: we were able to still capitalize on
that from the percentage of the g p

222
00:10:21,062 --> 00:10:24,902
[dan_handford]: that we were able to get from
that partnership and so it was definitely a

223
00:10:25,483 --> 00:10:30,311
[dan_handford]: profitable partnership but the monetary profit was
not anything near what

224
00:10:30,750 --> 00:10:30,932
[casey_]: sure

225
00:10:31,473 --> 00:10:35,400
[dan_handford]: the indirect profit that was from it
that allowed us to to have that extra

226
00:10:35,460 --> 00:10:37,746
[dan_handford]: credibility and track record about to acquire
more deals

227
00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:42,416
[casey_]: sure that educational profit was i'm sure
high

228
00:10:42,278 --> 00:10:43,178
[dan_handford]: oh

229
00:10:42,536 --> 00:10:45,020
[casey_]: margin stuff you know at i mean
i mean especially

230
00:10:44,971 --> 00:10:45,578
[dan_handford]: hm

231
00:10:45,041 --> 00:10:47,465
[casey_]: when you start looking at if you
can

232
00:10:47,498 --> 00:10:47,740
[dan_handford]: yes

233
00:10:47,545 --> 00:10:50,430
[casey_]: get in and start looking at some
of the underwriting standards that some of the

234
00:10:50,550 --> 00:10:53,695
[casey_]: guys had in place and then where
you might be able

235
00:10:53,708 --> 00:10:56,378
[dan_handford]: yeah

236
00:10:53,755 --> 00:10:57,321
[casey_]: to add value and and i know
when when we're looking at deals and doing

237
00:10:57,361 --> 00:10:57,702
[casey_]: stuff like

238
00:10:57,638 --> 00:11:00,098
[dan_handford]: oh

239
00:10:57,742 --> 00:11:03,551
[casey_]: that the value add component is is
such a why you know so such a

240
00:11:03,692 --> 00:11:08,279
[casey_]: variable among different groups and everybody looks
at it a little differently some people look

241
00:11:08,379 --> 00:11:12,526
[casey_]: at it as you know we're gonna
laundry rooms and other type stuff some people

242
00:11:12,566 --> 00:11:16,012
[casey_]: look at it we're going to increase
rent so um now

243
00:11:16,319 --> 00:11:16,421
[dan_handford]: oh

244
00:11:16,473 --> 00:11:19,438
[casey_]: when you first got that like go
back to

245
00:11:19,438 --> 00:11:19,579
[dan_handford]: yeah

246
00:11:19,498 --> 00:11:23,404
[casey_]: your your first deal like the first
time you ever called to money and said

247
00:11:23,445 --> 00:11:28,393
[casey_]: hey do you want to invest now
you had he invested passively so i'm assuming

248
00:11:28,473 --> 00:11:29,555
[casey_]: you had had

249
00:11:29,588 --> 00:11:29,791
[dan_handford]: oh

250
00:11:29,635 --> 00:11:30,897
[casey_]: kind of scene behind the curtains

251
00:11:30,938 --> 00:11:31,223
[dan_handford]: yeah

252
00:11:30,997 --> 00:11:35,284
[casey_]: of how these people approached you how
they asked you for money and what worked

253
00:11:35,324 --> 00:11:36,386
[casey_]: and what didn't work but

254
00:11:37,001 --> 00:11:37,206
[dan_handford]: yeah

255
00:11:37,047 --> 00:11:43,618
[casey_]: when you first started asking people for
money what was like i've heard it go

256
00:11:43,879 --> 00:11:47,064
[casey_]: to different i've heard people come at
it from like a pitch standpoint but i've

257
00:11:47,124 --> 00:11:50,690
[casey_]: also heard people come at it from
like hey this is an opportunity you want

258
00:11:50,730 --> 00:11:53,455
[casey_]: to make a return here just you
know we have this opportunity for you

259
00:11:53,797 --> 00:11:54,488
[dan_handford]: yeah

260
00:11:54,637 --> 00:11:57,782
[casey_]: if you don't we'll move on to
the next person that does want an opportunity

261
00:11:57,822 --> 00:12:00,546
[casey_]: and i've heard it kind of both
ways and may be a mix of the

262
00:12:00,606 --> 00:12:04,337
[casey_]: two but how did you did you
approach your first investor

263
00:12:04,868 --> 00:12:08,213
[dan_handford]: yeah um well it's funny because you
know you hear a lot of people saying

264
00:12:08,273 --> 00:12:11,218
[dan_handford]: hey i was able to get my
mom or my dad or my aunt or

265
00:12:11,258 --> 00:12:14,444
[dan_handford]: my uncle or somebody like that that
you know could invest with you right so

266
00:12:14,504 --> 00:12:17,989
[dan_handford]: you kind of use this kind of
family and friends connections and i will say

267
00:12:18,050 --> 00:12:21,616
[dan_handford]: that up to this point you know
i haven't really had any family members invest

268
00:12:21,656 --> 00:12:25,502
[dan_handford]: with me not because they don't trust
me or they don't want to invest with

269
00:12:25,522 --> 00:12:28,527
[dan_handford]: me as they really don't have the
money to invest with me right

270
00:12:28,850 --> 00:12:29,032
[casey_]: sure

271
00:12:29,028 --> 00:12:29,548
[dan_handford]: um and

272
00:12:29,475 --> 00:12:29,636
[casey_]: sure

273
00:12:29,688 --> 00:12:38,358
[dan_handford]: so that to me i went straight
to people who knew me but also didn't

274
00:12:38,378 --> 00:12:40,281
[dan_handford]: really know me in real estate right
so they're

275
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:40,602
[casey_]: yes

276
00:12:40,862 --> 00:12:43,546
[dan_handford]: i'd call him up and say hey
i got this project you know that i'm

277
00:12:43,566 --> 00:12:45,890
[dan_handford]: putting together of course the first thing
he'd say so i thought you were a

278
00:12:45,950 --> 00:12:48,495
[dan_handford]: hire proctor i didn't know that you
were doing real estate you know

279
00:12:49,493 --> 00:12:49,654
[casey_]: yeah

280
00:12:49,837 --> 00:12:53,463
[dan_handford]: and so being able to leverage that
other group that i was partner with and

281
00:12:53,543 --> 00:12:57,149
[dan_handford]: saying hey you know i actually have
just now going into the real estate space

282
00:12:57,490 --> 00:13:01,436
[dan_handford]: we've started this company past them investing
dot com we have partnered with this group

283
00:13:01,536 --> 00:13:06,044
[dan_handford]: over here who has this x y
n z track record that is phenomenal and

284
00:13:06,064 --> 00:13:09,830
[dan_handford]: we're leveraging their experience in credibility to
to learn a lot of these things on

285
00:13:09,910 --> 00:13:12,815
[dan_handford]: our own so that we can do
it on our own but in the meantime

286
00:13:13,196 --> 00:13:16,361
[dan_handford]: i want to bring you this opera
tunity that we are partneringon so that you

287
00:13:16,401 --> 00:13:18,725
[dan_handford]: know you can you can be a
part of it part of it and a

288
00:13:18,785 --> 00:13:21,289
[dan_handford]: lot of the investors that we had
talked to and i had already kind of

289
00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:25,256
[dan_handford]: talked to and primed them that we
were looking for this type of an opportunity

290
00:13:25,697 --> 00:13:30,144
[dan_handford]: and so i will say that case
i've never just like sat down and had

291
00:13:30,184 --> 00:13:34,171
[dan_handford]: to pick up the phone and i
like like dial for dollars if you will

292
00:13:34,191 --> 00:13:34,471
[dan_handford]: if you want

293
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:34,703
[casey_]: sure

294
00:13:34,511 --> 00:13:34,972
[dan_handford]: to call it that

295
00:13:34,905 --> 00:13:35,066
[casey_]: sure

296
00:13:35,012 --> 00:13:35,152
[dan_handford]: way

297
00:13:35,167 --> 00:13:35,591
[casey_]: sure yeah

298
00:13:35,553 --> 00:13:35,834

00:13:35,631 --> 00:13:35,894
[casey_]: yeah yeah

300
00:13:35,874 --> 00:13:40,822
[dan_handford]: different type of dialing for dollars but
most of my conversations have been initial conversations

301
00:13:40,842 --> 00:13:45,570
[dan_handford]: with investors and then staying making sure
that we stay in communication with them so

302
00:13:45,630 --> 00:13:48,595
[dan_handford]: that they are aware of what's going
on so we put them on our our

303
00:13:48,755 --> 00:13:52,401
[dan_handford]: physical newsletter news list till we mail
out to them every month we put them

304
00:13:52,441 --> 00:13:56,187
[dan_handford]: on our email list so that they're
apprised of all the things that are happening

305
00:13:56,228 --> 00:14:01,196
[dan_handford]: with passive investing dot com and that
way when we have a future opportunity they're

306
00:14:01,216 --> 00:14:04,521
[dan_handford]: already there they're already kate they've been
hearing from us all along and so it's

307
00:14:04,581 --> 00:14:08,508
[dan_handford]: no surprise or shock to them and
we sent it out there and you know

[dan_handford]: we get we get interest and we
get to fill it up now that very

309
00:14:11,793 --> 00:14:14,698

phone calls and things like that but the

313
00:14:21,590 --> 00:14:25,116
[dan_handford]: phone calls were to people who had
pretty much already said that they were interested

[casey_]: sure

412
00:17:27,603 --> 00:17:31,209
[dan_handford]: until i figured that out it's going
to sit there you sit there but this

413
00:17:31,269 --> 00:17:33,853
[dan_handford]: is actually on one of our property
as we did earlier this year called mariner

414
00:17:33,933 --> 00:17:38,861
[dan_handford]: grove located out of savannah georgia it's
about a ninety six million dollar property and

416
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:42,641
[casey_]: you

417
00:17:42,568 --> 00:17:44,109
[dan_handford]: our acquisition but

418
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:44,244
[casey_]: wow

419
00:17:44,149 --> 00:17:48,853
[dan_handford]: this particular one is just give you
that example of the physical

420
00:17:48,660 --> 00:17:49,890
[casey_]: oh

421
00:17:48,954 --> 00:17:51,576
[dan_handford]: side of what we do and we
print this off mail it to the investors

422
00:17:51,636 --> 00:17:52,697
[dan_handford]: on these particular assets

423
00:17:53,934 --> 00:17:57,592
[casey_]: and that's that's what sticks

424
00:17:57,498 --> 00:17:57,659
[dan_handford]: oh

425
00:17:57,733 --> 00:18:02,058
[casey_]: out to me and that's where i
want to take this discussion because

426
00:18:01,928 --> 00:18:02,195
[dan_handford]: yeah

427
00:18:02,398 --> 00:18:05,041
[casey_]: i think like i said in the

428
00:18:05,018 --> 00:18:05,261
[dan_handford]: oh

429
00:18:05,101 --> 00:18:09,068
[casey_]: beginning so many people are so worried
about what they're going

430
00:18:09,068 --> 00:18:09,332
[dan_handford]: oh

431
00:18:09,108 --> 00:18:12,273
[casey_]: to do when they have forty fifty
sixty seventy eighty million

432
00:18:12,098 --> 00:18:12,299
[dan_handford]: yeah

433
00:18:12,313 --> 00:18:14,717
[casey_]: dollars under management that they forget

434
00:18:14,570 --> 00:18:15,278
[dan_handford]: yeah

435
00:18:15,398 --> 00:18:16,443
[casey_]: they have to as

436
00:18:16,388 --> 00:18:17,438
[dan_handford]: oh

437
00:18:17,170 --> 00:18:17,634
[casey_]: one dollar

438
00:18:18,038 --> 00:18:18,359
[dan_handford]: oh

439
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,063
[casey_]: before they can ever get there right

440
00:18:19,924 --> 00:18:20,065
[dan_handford]: yeah

441
00:18:20,423 --> 00:18:20,924
[casey_]: so there were

442
00:18:21,158 --> 00:18:21,403
[dan_handford]: oh

443
00:18:21,184 --> 00:18:23,348
[casey_]: so they're thinking about scaling and i'm
guilty

444
00:18:23,138 --> 00:18:23,278
[dan_handford]: yeah

445
00:18:23,408 --> 00:18:26,113
[casey_]: of it myself thinking about scaling and
thinking

446
00:18:26,107 --> 00:18:26,228
[dan_handford]: yeah

447
00:18:26,173 --> 00:18:26,433
[casey_]: about

448
00:18:26,258 --> 00:18:26,460
[dan_handford]: oh

449
00:18:26,854 --> 00:18:31,381
[casey_]: the ultimate plan rather than hey i
need to work on this today i need

450
00:18:31,421 --> 00:18:36,470
[casey_]: to work on getting my first fifty
thousand dollar investment first and the

451
00:18:36,488 --> 00:18:36,791
[dan_handford]: yeah

452
00:18:36,530 --> 00:18:40,697
[casey_]: reason why i say that is because
i think a lot of people forget

453
00:18:41,297 --> 00:18:41,318
[dan_handford]: m

454
00:18:41,298 --> 00:18:49,331
[casey_]: how important the physicality of this stuff
is like somebody has that book they physically

455
00:18:49,611 --> 00:18:53,398
[casey_]: have invested with you they physically have
this book they physically can take that book

456
00:18:53,538 --> 00:18:57,164
[casey_]: out to their friends and say look
what i just invested in and where do

457
00:18:57,224 --> 00:19:00,229
[casey_]: you what do you think their friends
are going to i don't know you figured

458
00:19:00,289 --> 00:19:01,211
[casey_]: this but i'm more

459
00:19:01,249 --> 00:19:01,269
[dan_handford]: m

460
00:19:01,331 --> 00:19:02,353
[casey_]: talking to the listeners

461
00:19:02,357 --> 00:19:02,869
[dan_handford]: m yeah

462
00:19:02,975 --> 00:19:03,175
[casey_]: like

463
00:19:03,992 --> 00:19:04,094
[dan_handford]: ah

464
00:19:04,177 --> 00:19:10,252
[casey_]: when and i think that that this
constant approach of saying of of being level

465
00:19:10,493 --> 00:19:16,721
[casey_]: above the other guys in this business
is really what's led to this and the

466
00:19:16,781 --> 00:19:21,449
[casey_]: time obviously the timing of the economy
and a lot of things led to being

467
00:19:21,529 --> 00:19:26,657
[casey_]: able to scale so quickly but but
i just think a lot of people forget

468
00:19:27,679 --> 00:19:31,225
[casey_]: that a deal to you or a
deal

469
00:19:31,088 --> 00:19:31,393
[dan_handford]: oh

470
00:19:31,325 --> 00:19:33,980
[casey_]: to us as as principles

471
00:19:33,698 --> 00:19:34,478
[dan_handford]: yeah

472
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,468
[casey_]: or whatever versus a deal to somebody
invested like these people want to talk about

473
00:19:38,508 --> 00:19:41,433
[casey_]: it with their friends they want to
show people they want to tell people they

474
00:19:41,493 --> 00:19:45,139
[casey_]: want to talk to it and i
love that the physical stuff that you all

475
00:19:45,219 --> 00:19:45,499
[casey_]: give out

476
00:19:46,169 --> 00:19:49,896
[dan_handford]: yeah it's it's it's it's a conversation
piece for sure for when people come visit

477
00:19:49,996 --> 00:19:53,241
[dan_handford]: them and people bring it to work
and kind of show it off is almost

478
00:19:53,261 --> 00:19:56,406
[dan_handford]: like a trophy piece of hey look
what i invested in or look go to

479
00:19:56,446 --> 00:20:00,513
[dan_handford]: i own a pie of and we
even have investors that will sometimes miss these

480
00:20:00,553 --> 00:20:02,436
[dan_handford]: and they'll invest and he'll like hey
would you send me an extra

481
00:20:02,370 --> 00:20:02,774
[casey_]: uh

482
00:20:02,517 --> 00:20:04,119
[dan_handford]: copy because i want to add it
to

483
00:20:04,069 --> 00:20:04,110
[casey_]: uh

484
00:20:04,179 --> 00:20:09,228
[dan_handford]: my list of books that i have
of investments and so it's it's definitely a

485
00:20:09,348 --> 00:20:15,638
[dan_handford]: component that you know i've seen one
other operator try to do it and they

486
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:18,283
[dan_handford]: did an okay job with it but
then they didn't do it any more they

487
00:20:18,323 --> 00:20:20,727
[dan_handford]: only did it with like one deal
but we do it

488
00:20:20,710 --> 00:20:20,871
[casey_]: well

489
00:20:20,767 --> 00:20:21,492
[dan_handford]: with every single

490
00:20:21,351 --> 00:20:21,572
[casey_]: i mean

491
00:20:21,533 --> 00:20:21,674
[dan_handford]: one of

492
00:20:21,652 --> 00:20:21,772
[casey_]: i've

493
00:20:21,735 --> 00:20:21,816
[dan_handford]: our

494
00:20:21,832 --> 00:20:21,952
[casey_]: got

495
00:20:21,897 --> 00:20:22,281
[dan_handford]: assets

496
00:20:22,013 --> 00:20:26,760
[casey_]: to i've got to ask my my
eyes tell me that you're talking about a

497
00:20:26,841 --> 00:20:28,243
[casey_]: four or five dollar book there

498
00:20:28,799 --> 00:20:28,840
[dan_handford]: h

499
00:20:29,385 --> 00:20:29,886
[casey_]: each i

500
00:20:29,867 --> 00:20:29,888
[dan_handford]: m

501
00:20:29,906 --> 00:20:30,286
[casey_]: mean i could

502
00:20:30,311 --> 00:20:30,878
[dan_handford]: hm

503
00:20:30,346 --> 00:20:30,727
[casey_]: be wrong

504
00:20:31,460 --> 00:20:31,501
[dan_handford]: hm

505
00:20:31,849 --> 00:20:32,089
[casey_]: and

506
00:20:32,717 --> 00:20:32,738
[dan_handford]: m

507
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:38,663
[casey_]: i'm thinking some of these people might
say hey if i've got a hundred investors

508
00:20:38,723 --> 00:20:42,189
[casey_]: i mean there's five you know i
guess people just look at things to to

509
00:20:42,690 --> 00:20:46,176
[casey_]: to mark like there's if there's that
much if there's that little margin in what

510
00:20:46,216 --> 00:20:48,379
[casey_]: you're doing to be to not

511
00:20:48,788 --> 00:20:49,628
[dan_handford]: yeah

512
00:20:48,941 --> 00:20:51,471
[casey_]: to be able to do that then
i just don't seem i just don't think

513
00:20:51,772 --> 00:20:52,113
[casey_]: people want

514
00:20:52,048 --> 00:20:52,229
[dan_handford]: well

515
00:20:52,154 --> 00:20:53,117
[casey_]: to grow and it's almost

516
00:20:53,531 --> 00:20:57,057
[dan_handford]: the unique thing about these types of
printed materials like this like this is this

517
00:20:57,117 --> 00:21:02,345
[dan_handford]: is a deal called mariner grove right
and this is an offering and so it's

518
00:21:02,866 --> 00:21:07,514
[dan_handford]: printing these all off as an offering
expense and so passive investing dot com doesn't

519
00:21:07,554 --> 00:21:11,400
[dan_handford]: have to pay for the printing on
this it's included in the documents that says

520
00:21:11,481 --> 00:21:15,047
[dan_handford]: that we're going to take some of
the funds that we raise for this project

521
00:21:15,087 --> 00:21:17,050
[dan_handford]: to pay for citing expenses and part

522
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:17,144
[casey_]: yeah

523
00:21:17,090 --> 00:21:20,395
[dan_handford]: of that marketing expense is the printing
of these to be able to raise the

524
00:21:20,456 --> 00:21:23,461
[dan_handford]: funds to close the project so it
makes sense for the offering to pay for

525
00:21:23,501 --> 00:21:23,661
[dan_handford]: that

526
00:21:24,411 --> 00:21:24,574
[casey_]: sure

527
00:21:24,643 --> 00:21:26,646
[dan_handford]: but at the same time it's

528
00:21:26,580 --> 00:21:26,803
[casey_]: oh

529
00:21:27,087 --> 00:21:31,554
[dan_handford]: not really extra expense for us it's
the offering itself that's actually paying for those

530
00:21:31,594 --> 00:21:35,581
[dan_handford]: expenses and i mean even to print
up you know a thousand of those and

531
00:21:35,601 --> 00:21:38,926
[dan_handford]: have i have him sent off you
know might cost us you know i don't

532
00:21:38,946 --> 00:21:42,450
[dan_handford]: know by and twenty thousand dollars to
send them off or whatever it is because

533
00:21:42,470 --> 00:21:46,233
[dan_handford]: we do him in bulk like that
but it's worth it to us to get

534
00:21:46,273 --> 00:21:48,816
[dan_handford]: that into their hands to be able
to be aware of the offering

535
00:21:48,630 --> 00:21:48,650
[casey_]: m

536
00:21:49,116 --> 00:21:50,537
[dan_handford]: and to be able to raise the
funds for it

537
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:51,981
[casey_]: well and i think that

538
00:21:52,568 --> 00:21:52,932
[dan_handford]: oh

539
00:21:52,582 --> 00:21:57,210
[casey_]: i swear i think that the value
in those is not even getting those to

540
00:21:57,250 --> 00:21:57,570
[casey_]: the people

541
00:21:57,488 --> 00:21:58,418
[dan_handford]: yeah

542
00:21:57,611 --> 00:21:59,494
[casey_]: that invested with you that's that's like
a

543
00:21:59,738 --> 00:21:59,961
[dan_handford]: oh

544
00:22:00,676 --> 00:22:02,519
[casey_]: fringe benefit if you will i think

545
00:22:02,394 --> 00:22:02,414
[dan_handford]: h

546
00:22:02,579 --> 00:22:03,841
[casey_]: the vale ou in those

547
00:22:03,647 --> 00:22:03,668
[dan_handford]: m

548
00:22:04,082 --> 00:22:06,507
[casey_]: is the showing off to the friends
to their

549
00:22:06,510 --> 00:22:06,672
[dan_handford]: yeah

550
00:22:06,567 --> 00:22:06,908
[casey_]: friends

551
00:22:07,699 --> 00:22:11,345
[dan_handford]: no absolutely and it's it's we also
have a physical printed news letter i don't

552
00:22:11,405 --> 00:22:14,530
[dan_handford]: have one handy right now but we
have a physical printed news letter that every

553
00:22:14,590 --> 00:22:17,916
[dan_handford]: month whether we have an offering or
not it gets mailed out to those investors

554
00:22:18,036 --> 00:22:20,400
[dan_handford]: and one of the things that we
do and there is we actually

555
00:22:20,940 --> 00:22:21,690
[casey_]: oh

556
00:22:20,981 --> 00:22:25,769
[dan_handford]: about twice a year we'll print up
a second copy of that news letter and

557
00:22:25,829 --> 00:22:29,254
[dan_handford]: we'll shrink wrap it and we'll put
a sticker on the outside of it that

558
00:22:29,315 --> 00:22:33,061
[dan_handford]: says we printed an extra copy to
hand off to a family friend or colleague

559
00:22:33,441 --> 00:22:34,103
[dan_handford]: and now we've already

[casey_]: shoot ye

out and setting it to them and now

562
00:22:39,451 --> 00:22:41,996
[dan_handford]: it's sitting there and so now they
have an opportunity you gotta take that and

[dan_handford]: oh

691
00:26:25,945 --> 00:26:28,149

00:26:27,953 --> 00:26:28,688
[dan_handford]: hm

693
00:26:29,260 --> 00:26:32,563

00:26:32,498 --> 00:26:32,761
[dan_handford]: oh

695
00:26:32,583 --> 00:26:33,063
[casey_]: sitting there

696
00:26:33,398 --> 00:26:33,679
[dan_handford]: yeah

697
00:26:33,584 --> 00:26:38,028
[casey_]: and you just listen you're like listen

698
00:26:38,088 --> 00:26:41,472
[casey_]: you know what keep going keep going
keep pushing

699
00:26:41,242 --> 00:26:41,888
[dan_handford]: hm

700
00:26:41,572 --> 00:26:43,655
[casey_]: keep getting there and the whole mind

701
00:26:43,418 --> 00:26:44,468
[dan_handford]: oh

702
00:26:43,776 --> 00:26:48,423
[casey_]: set of not getting drug down in
the gutter and you know it kind of

703
00:26:48,483 --> 00:26:51,769
[casey_]: goes back a little bit to you
all sending these these books out right here

704
00:26:51,829 --> 00:26:55,796
[casey_]: because people with money you know what
they do that hang out with other people

705
00:26:55,836 --> 00:26:56,236
[casey_]: with money

706
00:26:56,298 --> 00:26:56,661
[dan_handford]: that's right

707
00:26:56,777 --> 00:27:00,604
[casey_]: right if you've got money you don't
have friends to go out and party and

708
00:27:00,788 --> 00:27:01,230
[dan_handford]: oh

709
00:27:00,924 --> 00:27:05,412
[casey_]: go to getting bar brawl fights every
friday night you hang out you

710
00:27:05,318 --> 00:27:05,923
[dan_handford]: oh

711
00:27:05,452 --> 00:27:08,156
[casey_]: might have a drink but you you
have it with other people that have money

712
00:27:08,677 --> 00:27:13,826
[casey_]: and so what i'm getting at is
is that whole mind set thing of saying

713
00:27:13,866 --> 00:27:17,172
[casey_]: hey this is who i want to
be these are the people i'm going to

714
00:27:17,212 --> 00:27:21,502
[casey_]: hang out with i mean that's that's
just that's a really cool element i think

715
00:27:21,582 --> 00:27:24,188
[casey_]: you all bring to basically everything you
do really

716
00:27:24,906 --> 00:27:25,451
[dan_handford]: i appreciate that

717
00:27:26,670 --> 00:27:29,956
[casey_]: um i just i think that's that's
there's there's a lot of value

718
00:27:29,738 --> 00:27:29,999
[dan_handford]: oh

719
00:27:30,016 --> 00:27:33,261
[casey_]: in that because we all we all
tend to find

720
00:27:33,708 --> 00:27:33,869
[dan_handford]: yeah

721
00:27:33,742 --> 00:27:35,886
[casey_]: the common thread again with people

722
00:27:36,098 --> 00:27:36,359
[dan_handford]: oh

723
00:27:36,326 --> 00:27:38,410
[casey_]: that we want to be like so
when you start doing that

724
00:27:38,569 --> 00:27:38,711
[dan_handford]: yeah

725
00:27:38,670 --> 00:27:40,493
[casey_]: you just kind of tug yourself up
you know wat i mean

726
00:27:40,709 --> 00:27:40,749
[dan_handford]: hm

727
00:27:41,295 --> 00:27:44,520
[casey_]: um so now we got to kind
of shift away from all the fun talk

728
00:27:44,580 --> 00:27:46,063
[casey_]: and talk a little business because i
know

729
00:27:45,941 --> 00:27:46,024
[dan_handford]: ah

730
00:27:46,103 --> 00:27:50,330
[casey_]: you all have a lot of big
things going on right now now has has

731
00:27:50,410 --> 00:27:54,978
[casey_]: passive investing dot com have you all
pretty much shifted the whole thing to a

732
00:27:55,098 --> 00:27:59,705
[casey_]: fund model like everything is a fund
model now or do you all still do

733
00:27:59,906 --> 00:28:00,347
[casey_]: one office

734
00:28:00,368 --> 00:28:00,533
[dan_handford]: ye

735
00:28:00,387 --> 00:28:02,672
[casey_]: indication deals i know if you have
some big thirty forty

736
00:28:02,648 --> 00:28:03,608
[dan_handford]: yeah

737
00:28:02,713 --> 00:28:04,160
[casey_]: million dollar raise is like that i
mean

738
00:28:04,118 --> 00:28:04,384
[dan_handford]: yeah

739
00:28:04,603 --> 00:28:08,711
[casey_]: i got to think that possibly that
could be a one off raise but i

740
00:28:08,751 --> 00:28:09,616
[casey_]: guess i'm just curious

741
00:28:10,019 --> 00:28:14,526
[dan_handford]: yeah so you know we have definitely
you done a lot of research at nauseum

742
00:28:14,647 --> 00:28:18,753
[dan_handford]: when it comes to the funds whether
doing it being raising money v a fund

743
00:28:19,034 --> 00:28:25,404
[dan_handford]: or a single asset s up to
this point for multi family we've done single

744
00:28:25,505 --> 00:28:26,246
[dan_handford]: asset raises

745
00:28:26,851 --> 00:28:27,055
[casey_]: okay

746
00:28:27,228 --> 00:28:31,895
[dan_handford]: you know there's a couple of reasons
why but one of the things that we're

747
00:28:31,975 --> 00:28:36,844
[dan_handford]: doing right now is for us of
our assets like self storage and express car

748
00:28:36,904 --> 00:28:40,890
[dan_handford]: washes that we are acquiring is were
doing what we call kind of many funds

749
00:28:41,571 --> 00:28:42,773
[dan_handford]: and so instead of being kind

750
00:28:42,750 --> 00:28:43,013
[casey_]: oh

751
00:28:42,813 --> 00:28:46,259
[dan_handford]: of a blind fund where you don't
really know where the assets re gonna be

752
00:28:46,299 --> 00:28:49,565
[dan_handford]: located because they don't know which one
they're gonna buy yet they're gonna basically just

753
00:28:49,705 --> 00:28:53,071
[dan_handford]: raise money into a fund and hopeful
they'll find something and place it fast

754
00:28:52,890 --> 00:28:53,052
[casey_]: yeah

755
00:28:53,151 --> 00:28:57,899
[dan_handford]: enough to make enough money um we
actually do it differently so we actually go

756
00:28:57,959 --> 00:29:03,328
[dan_handford]: and find the assets and secure them
get them under contract and so for self

757
00:29:03,408 --> 00:29:08,436
[dan_handford]: storage and molds i mean for self
storage and with express car washes the asset

758
00:29:08,496 --> 00:29:13,084
[dan_handford]: values are lower so they're usually five
to ten maybe fifteen million apiece so you

759
00:29:13,104 --> 00:29:17,491
[dan_handford]: don't get to have a hundred million
dollar property with express car wash where you're

760
00:29:17,832 --> 00:29:21,117
[dan_handford]: you're raising thirty or forty million it
just they just don't exist right

761
00:29:21,350 --> 00:29:21,473
[casey_]: yeah

762
00:29:21,438 --> 00:29:25,445
[dan_handford]: and so for us what we decided
to do is take three or four or

763
00:29:25,545 --> 00:29:31,435
[dan_handford]: five or even had seven assets in
one portfolio and we already know those locations

764
00:29:31,575 --> 00:29:35,081
[dan_handford]: we go ahead and add them into
the fund and so the investors know exactly

765
00:29:35,141 --> 00:29:40,089
[dan_handford]: which assets they're investing in and they'll
be diversified and invested across multiple assets but

766
00:29:40,830 --> 00:29:44,937
[dan_handford]: there's a specific amount of money that
were raising for that fund so i'll give

767
00:29:44,957 --> 00:29:49,945
[dan_handford]: you a quick example know we just
acquired about two months ago a seven unit

768
00:29:50,386 --> 00:29:56,536
[dan_handford]: express car washed portfolio and we raised
money for to acquire all seven locations in

769
00:29:56,677 --> 00:29:58,259
[dan_handford]: one fund right and

770
00:29:58,181 --> 00:29:58,201
[casey_]: a

771
00:29:58,359 --> 00:30:01,743
[dan_handford]: so we were able to raise that
money fairly quickly write it about twenty million

772
00:30:01,783 --> 00:30:07,992
[dan_handford]: to be able to acquire that portfolio
on the equity side and then just recently

773
00:30:08,032 --> 00:30:13,481
[dan_handford]: we just launched our our fourth fund
minny fund if you will for express car

774
00:30:13,541 --> 00:30:17,588
[dan_handford]: washes raising right around like twelve million
twelve and a half million for that fun

00:30:18,229 --> 00:30:20,352
[dan_handford]: fill it up within twenty four hours

776
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:20,602

[dan_handford]: so being able to raise money like
that on those kind of the our sweet

778
00:30:25,060 --> 00:30:29,147
[dan_handford]: spot i would say is around kind
of the fifteen to twenty five million dollar

779
00:30:29,427 --> 00:30:31,794
[dan_handford]: rain i kind of our sweet spot
as far as money rays so

780
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:32,543
[casey_]: sure

781
00:30:33,298 --> 00:30:36,185
[dan_handford]: we have a very high repeat investor
rate which allows us to have a good

782
00:30:36,050 --> 00:30:37,452
[casey_]: that was my next question

783
00:30:37,688 --> 00:30:38,836
[dan_handford]: yeah well

784
00:30:38,914 --> 00:30:39,035
[casey_]: that

785
00:30:39,058 --> 00:30:39,159
[dan_handford]: the

786
00:30:39,075 --> 00:30:40,377
[casey_]: was my next question how many of
these

787
00:30:40,418 --> 00:30:40,739
[dan_handford]: yeah

788
00:30:40,437 --> 00:30:43,582
[casey_]: people because it seems to me like
if you have somebody you can bring them

789
00:30:43,642 --> 00:30:43,843
[casey_]: into

790
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:43,762
[dan_handford]: no

791
00:30:43,903 --> 00:30:48,310
[casey_]: a single asset deal and you take
that deal full cycle not only are they

792
00:30:48,350 --> 00:30:53,322
[casey_]: getting their hundred two hundred two fifty
thousand dollars back but then you can but

793
00:30:53,442 --> 00:30:55,246
[casey_]: then they seem to have a trust

794
00:30:55,298 --> 00:30:55,504
[dan_handford]: oh

795
00:30:55,347 --> 00:30:59,985
[casey_]: with you because the hardest thing about
a fund is the trust is the trust

796
00:31:00,085 --> 00:31:00,346
[casey_]: piece

797
00:31:00,805 --> 00:31:01,418

[dan_handford]: oh

804
00:31:11,146 --> 00:31:13,129
[casey_]: assets that are going to make the
money and then it might

00:31:13,501 --> 00:31:14,168
[dan_handford]: hm

806
00:31:13,673 --> 00:31:14,760
[casey_]: going to get my money back

839
00:32:15,895 --> 00:32:17,436
[casey_]: at a at a specific caporate

840
00:32:17,739 --> 00:32:17,779
[dan_handford]: hm

00:32:18,417 --> 00:32:19,298
[casey_]: m so anyway

842
00:32:19,958 --> 00:32:21,098
[dan_handford]: oh

843
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:25,887
[casey_]: but when we're so so so yeah
so you've got single asset one like we

844
00:32:25,948 --> 00:32:26,468
[casey_]: call one off

845
00:32:26,468 --> 00:32:26,649
[dan_handford]: yeah

846
00:32:26,589 --> 00:32:30,535
[casey_]: indications where you go raise x amount
of dollars for this one two three main

847
00:32:30,518 --> 00:32:30,699
[dan_handford]: oh

848
00:32:30,615 --> 00:32:34,161
[casey_]: street two hundred units then you repeat
investors

849
00:32:34,877 --> 00:32:35,201
[dan_handford]: m oh

850
00:32:35,083 --> 00:32:37,567
[casey_]: just kind of they just kind of
keep turning and as long as i guess

851
00:32:37,627 --> 00:32:39,791
[casey_]: you're providing a return and

852
00:32:40,211 --> 00:32:40,376
[dan_handford]: yeah

853
00:32:40,332 --> 00:32:45,220
[casey_]: everything is gone as expected that this
doesn't seem like it's going to change i

854
00:32:45,300 --> 00:32:46,482
[casey_]: mean i guess

855
00:32:46,508 --> 00:32:46,528
[dan_handford]: m

856
00:32:46,522 --> 00:32:50,168
[casey_]: every once while you might have some
investors that decide they want to do something

857
00:32:50,288 --> 00:32:52,271
[casey_]: else or or maybe they want to
take their

858
00:32:52,307 --> 00:32:52,328
[dan_handford]: m

859
00:32:52,311 --> 00:32:53,513
[casey_]: capital money and go somewhere else

860
00:32:53,408 --> 00:32:53,751
[dan_handford]: yeah

861
00:32:53,574 --> 00:32:54,776
[casey_]: or do something different with it

862
00:32:54,878 --> 00:32:56,018
[dan_handford]: oh

863
00:32:55,517 --> 00:32:59,894
[casey_]: um but man that's that's that's awesome
and it's just like a rent in repeat

864
00:32:59,974 --> 00:33:00,236
[casey_]: isn't it

865
00:33:01,098 --> 00:33:05,365
[dan_handford]: it is and it's it's it's one
of those things that investors are investing with

866
00:33:05,425 --> 00:33:09,132
[dan_handford]: us because they kind of buying into
the overall business plan and you know the

867
00:33:09,152 --> 00:33:12,517
[dan_handford]: nice thing about the express car washes
is that they cash flow very nicely and

868
00:33:12,557 --> 00:33:15,382
[dan_handford]: so we're able to provide higher preferred
returns and we can with some of the

869
00:33:15,602 --> 00:33:16,604
[dan_handford]: other asset classes

870
00:33:16,751 --> 00:33:16,913
[casey_]: sure

871
00:33:17,045 --> 00:33:20,931
[dan_handford]: we typically offer a ten percent preferred
return and then a waterfall kind of equity

872
00:33:21,072 --> 00:33:26,080
[dan_handford]: split after that and it's just it's
it's it's our goal with the express car

873
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:30,467
[dan_handford]: washes is to get to between about
hundred and fifty to two hundred locations and

874
00:33:30,487 --> 00:33:34,454
[dan_handford]: then have either a large private equity
of roll up and have a large kind

875
00:33:34,494 --> 00:33:38,140
[dan_handford]: of equity multiple with that because they
could sell the whole folio at once or

876
00:33:38,260 --> 00:33:41,045
[dan_handford]: because the revenues at that point in
time will be over a hundred million dollars

877
00:33:41,085 --> 00:33:43,910
[dan_handford]: a year will be able to do
a potential will potentially be able to do

878
00:33:43,950 --> 00:33:45,733
[dan_handford]: an i po and go public

879
00:33:45,730 --> 00:33:45,892
[casey_]: yeah

880
00:33:45,793 --> 00:33:49,019
[dan_handford]: ourselves so there's a lot of different
exit options for that can i had some

881
00:33:49,059 --> 00:33:50,425
[dan_handford]: really good returns for investors

882
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,684
[casey_]: man you start talking i p o
stuff man i get

883
00:33:53,738 --> 00:33:54,518
[dan_handford]: yeah

884
00:33:54,044 --> 00:33:55,046
[casey_]: makes the hair on the back of
my

885
00:33:55,068 --> 00:33:55,169
[dan_handford]: ah

886
00:33:55,146 --> 00:33:59,694
[casey_]: neck stand up that's like that's like
the l that's that's like the steps up

887
00:33:59,814 --> 00:33:59,894
[casey_]: you

888
00:33:59,858 --> 00:34:00,058
[dan_handford]: yeah

889
00:33:59,934 --> 00:34:03,320
[casey_]: know and i mean and you just
keep keep pushing until you get there so

890
00:34:03,761 --> 00:34:08,669
[casey_]: well well listen i mean the the
stuff that you've told today just in this

891
00:34:08,709 --> 00:34:09,390
[casey_]: little bit of time

892
00:34:09,307 --> 00:34:09,488
[dan_handford]: yeah

893
00:34:09,470 --> 00:34:11,914
[casey_]: i know is bringing a lot of
value to to

894
00:34:12,008 --> 00:34:12,314
[dan_handford]: oh

895
00:34:12,014 --> 00:34:15,340
[casey_]: people that are just kind of looking
because i think there's a lot of people

896
00:34:15,380 --> 00:34:20,108
[casey_]: that can look through look through multiple
different lenses through this from this discussion they

897
00:34:20,148 --> 00:34:23,313
[casey_]: can look at it from the beginning
standpoint where hey you had to go out

898
00:34:23,353 --> 00:34:26,879
[casey_]: and raise your first call it fifty
or hundred thousand dollars

899
00:34:26,948 --> 00:34:27,172
[dan_handford]: yeah

900
00:34:27,260 --> 00:34:30,605
[casey_]: all the way to hey now look
here we are four or five years later

901
00:34:31,086 --> 00:34:35,093
[casey_]: raising a hundred times what we did
in our first year alone and so i

902
00:34:35,193 --> 00:34:38,278
[casey_]: think that that that there's an array
there now

903
00:34:39,548 --> 00:34:39,709
[dan_handford]: oh

904
00:34:40,221 --> 00:34:44,589
[casey_]: the as far as like deal finding
i know that you all like for instance

905
00:34:44,629 --> 00:34:49,897
[casey_]: your self storage arm is kind of
i don't want to say it operates separately

906
00:34:49,958 --> 00:34:52,442
[casey_]: or anything but i just mean it's
it kind of like its own deal like

907
00:34:52,482 --> 00:34:54,926
[casey_]: you have your own manager of that

908
00:34:54,812 --> 00:34:54,974
[dan_handford]: oh

909
00:34:55,066 --> 00:34:57,610
[casey_]: side do you have the same thing
for car washes and then

910
00:34:57,518 --> 00:34:58,418
[dan_handford]: oh

911
00:34:58,352 --> 00:35:01,256
[casey_]: what are you doing for deal flow
on multi family because i know it's kind

912
00:35:01,296 --> 00:35:03,019
[casey_]: of like a bottle neck right now

913
00:35:03,228 --> 00:35:06,874
[dan_handford]: yeah so the answer to the question
is yes and so one of the things

914
00:35:06,894 --> 00:35:09,919
[dan_handford]: that i learned and scaling the medical
clinics that i have is that when i

915
00:35:09,959 --> 00:35:13,865
[dan_handford]: went from one location to two locations
i took my eye off of the first

916
00:35:13,925 --> 00:35:17,852
[dan_handford]: location i even trained point of the
entire corporate team from the one location

917
00:35:17,829 --> 00:35:17,850
[casey_]: m

918
00:35:17,932 --> 00:35:20,957
[dan_handford]: and put him into the second location
and there was a big mistake that i

919
00:35:21,057 --> 00:35:26,587
[dan_handford]: made because the first location started to
suffer because nobody was watching over it and

920
00:35:26,687 --> 00:35:26,807
[dan_handford]: so

921
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:26,922
[casey_]: yep

922
00:35:27,168 --> 00:35:32,156
[dan_handford]: hen we started to scale from just
multi family to be added on self storage

923
00:35:32,256 --> 00:35:36,944
[dan_handford]: and then hotels and express car washes
we wanted to make sure that we didn't

924
00:35:37,024 --> 00:35:40,229
[dan_handford]: take our eye off of each one
of those as we continue to grow in

925
00:35:40,350 --> 00:35:44,957
[dan_handford]: scale and so we don't take our
multi family acquisitions team and say okay guys

926
00:35:45,097 --> 00:35:48,884
[dan_handford]: now you're gonna start acquiring self storage
and now you're goin to start acquiring you

927
00:35:49,084 --> 00:35:50,687
[dan_handford]: express car washes because

928
00:35:50,590 --> 00:35:50,732
[casey_]: yeah

929
00:35:50,987 --> 00:35:51,067
[dan_handford]: we

930
00:35:51,037 --> 00:35:51,199
[casey_]: yeah

931
00:35:51,188 --> 00:35:54,413
[dan_handford]: didn't want them to change their focus
off of what they were supposed to be

932
00:35:54,473 --> 00:35:59,361
[dan_handford]: doing and so as we continue to
grow we add on an additional asset class

933
00:35:59,682 --> 00:36:02,987
[dan_handford]: we build out a team just for
that one asset class to make sure that

934
00:36:03,007 --> 00:36:08,920
[dan_handford]: we have enough oversight from an acquisition
perspective but also from a an asset management

935
00:36:08,981 --> 00:36:11,406
[dan_handford]: perspective to make sure that that investment
is going well as well

936
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:16,046
[casey_]: sure yeah and that's man that's that's
so crucial

937
00:36:15,878 --> 00:36:16,142
[dan_handford]: oh

938
00:36:16,106 --> 00:36:19,652
[casey_]: i think a lot of people and
i think people

939
00:36:19,628 --> 00:36:19,809
[dan_handford]: oh

940
00:36:19,712 --> 00:36:21,154
[casey_]: don't don't put enough emphasis

941
00:36:21,188 --> 00:36:21,938
[dan_handford]: yeah

942
00:36:21,275 --> 00:36:24,921
[casey_]: on the team and you also at
the very beginning mentioned mentor

943
00:36:25,612 --> 00:36:26,978
[dan_handford]: hm

944
00:36:25,842 --> 00:36:30,209
[casey_]: mentor team and by the time you
bring everything together it's just like man this

945
00:36:30,250 --> 00:36:35,458
[casey_]: is what you got i know were
were over on our time here but there's

946
00:36:35,478 --> 00:36:38,263
[casey_]: a couple there's one the last piece
here that i feel like i have to

947
00:36:38,303 --> 00:36:42,049
[casey_]: get in because pre hitting record you
and i talked

948
00:36:41,828 --> 00:36:41,848
[dan_handford]: m

949
00:36:42,109 --> 00:36:46,016
[casey_]: about your meat up groups i'd like
for us to maybe

950
00:36:45,968 --> 00:36:46,471
[dan_handford]: oh

951
00:36:46,096 --> 00:36:50,887
[casey_]: dive just a little bit into that
it's some of the framework because that that

952
00:36:51,108 --> 00:36:57,983
[casey_]: to me that network that you've created
fee has to be feeding a lot of

953
00:36:58,063 --> 00:37:02,491
[casey_]: this this frenzy because then people come
in now all of a sudden they

954
00:37:02,498 --> 00:37:03,022
[dan_handford]: oh

955
00:37:02,551 --> 00:37:04,654

[casey_]: hand and say oh these are the
guys that putting this on and i'm here

00:37:10,043 --> 00:37:12,287
[casey_]: with him and and all of that
has

959
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:12,441
[dan_handford]: yeah

960
00:37:12,367 --> 00:37:13,789
[casey_]: to be playing together and like

961
00:37:13,778 --> 00:37:15,608
[dan_handford]: yeah

962
00:37:13,850 --> 00:37:15,613
[casey_]: you said in the beginning you don't
just

963
00:37:15,638 --> 00:37:15,658
[dan_handford]: m

964
00:37:15,673 --> 00:37:16,594
[casey_]: have one channel

965
00:37:16,628 --> 00:37:16,808
[dan_handford]: oh

966
00:37:16,694 --> 00:37:21,548
[casey_]: together investors you've got multiple but i
feel the meat ups have to be a

967
00:37:21,749 --> 00:37:22,312
[casey_]: huge

968
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:22,224
[dan_handford]: yeah

969
00:37:22,432 --> 00:37:22,975
[casey_]: part of that

970
00:37:24,309 --> 00:37:30,960
[dan_handford]: um i will say that the medes
have been very crucial because it allows there's

971
00:37:31,060 --> 00:37:34,826
[dan_handford]: always people that are looking to try
to meet up with other people locally to

972
00:37:34,846 --> 00:37:36,209
[dan_handford]: be able to and how to invest

973
00:37:37,050 --> 00:37:37,192
[casey_]: yep

974
00:37:37,090 --> 00:37:41,798
[dan_handford]: and the meat up groups have provided
that as an opportunity for us we have

00:37:41,878 --> 00:37:45,304
[dan_handford]: fifty three meet up groups across the
united states across the united states and canada

and they are out there promoting and marketing

978
00:37:55,154 --> 00:37:58,077
[dan_handford]: for us and getting people to hear
about our particular group of

979
00:37:58,084 --> 00:37:58,265
[casey_]: meet

980
00:37:58,137 --> 00:37:58,337

[dan_handford]: yeah

1035
00:39:36,931 --> 00:39:39,018
[casey_]: in investing a call

1036
00:39:39,422 --> 00:39:41,105
[dan_handford]: yeah so it's not exactly like that
so

1037
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:41,961
[casey_]: kay

1038
00:39:41,866 --> 00:39:46,674
[dan_handford]: basically at these meet ups the co
organizers we don't pay them they don't pay

1039
00:39:46,794 --> 00:39:50,500
[dan_handford]: us it's it's really a volunteer position
for them to be the local authority in

1040
00:39:50,540 --> 00:39:54,146
[dan_handford]: their particular market and so they get
access to the list that's built up of

1041
00:39:54,186 --> 00:39:57,332
[dan_handford]: their group they can they get to
speak in front of their group but they

1042
00:39:57,392 --> 00:40:01,398
[dan_handford]: also get direct training from me so
i send them training on a top for

1043
00:40:01,439 --> 00:40:06,146
[dan_handford]: that month um every single month so
that they can learn from the different things

1044
00:40:06,186 --> 00:40:09,232
[dan_handford]: that we're goin be there they're going
to be teaching because there's people that you

1045
00:40:09,372 --> 00:40:11,575
[dan_handford]: are new to the space but they
can still run to eat up group and

1046
00:40:11,615 --> 00:40:14,300
[dan_handford]: i can teach them a little bit
about how to find deals or how to

1047
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:19,088
[dan_handford]: raise capital and you know how to
property management companies and teach them that and

1048
00:40:19,148 --> 00:40:21,853
[dan_handford]: we also give them out of one
sheet er so they can be able to

1049
00:40:21,933 --> 00:40:26,180
[dan_handford]: have that information to dissiminate it to
their group and if they are a new

1050
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:32,811
[dan_handford]: investor then of course they'll get sent
in email that's an introductory video on investing

1051
00:40:32,871 --> 00:40:38,160
[dan_handford]: in multi family right mostly from the
active perspective right because what multi family investigation

1052
00:40:38,220 --> 00:40:41,686
[dan_handford]: is really designed to teach people how
to invest on that on the active side

1053
00:40:42,166 --> 00:40:46,353
[dan_handford]: but the kind of our main goal
with it is is to attract passive investors

1054
00:40:46,534 --> 00:40:46,714
[dan_handford]: right

1055
00:40:46,961 --> 00:40:47,123
[casey_]: yeah

1056
00:40:47,135 --> 00:40:47,375
[dan_handford]: whether

1057
00:40:47,406 --> 00:40:47,528
[casey_]: yeah

1058
00:40:48,116 --> 00:40:51,141
[dan_handford]: whether it's active investor who's trying to
do it on their own but they have

1059
00:40:51,222 --> 00:40:54,327
[dan_handford]: say maybe a four one k or
or i ray that they can't invest in

1060
00:40:54,367 --> 00:40:57,372
[dan_handford]: their own deals and they can invest
with us we actually have some really well

1061
00:40:57,432 --> 00:41:00,818
[dan_handford]: known sindicators that actually invest with us
directly tea there

1062
00:41:00,903 --> 00:41:01,046
[casey_]: yeah

1063
00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:03,181
[dan_handford]: their retirement accounts because they can't invest
in their own stuff

1064
00:41:03,630 --> 00:41:03,792
[casey_]: yep

1065
00:41:03,963 --> 00:41:07,068
[dan_handford]: um and so that helps us be
able to bring those investors in but here's

1066
00:41:07,088 --> 00:41:11,075
[dan_handford]: a lot of people that go to
youtube into the podcasts you know world and

1067
00:41:11,135 --> 00:41:14,520
[dan_handford]: say now they want to learn about
invest and then they go holy crap this

1068
00:41:14,580 --> 00:41:17,946
[dan_handford]: is a lot of work here's my
money you do it for me and that's

1069
00:41:17,986 --> 00:41:21,692
