[shannon_robnett]: yeah thanks so much case i truly
appreciate the opportunity to speak to your audience
15
00:00:41,947 --> 00:00:47,416
[shannon_robnett]: you know i grew up in a
real estate family in fact i'm here in
16
00:00:48,057 --> 00:00:52,685
[shannon_robnett]: mexico currently robert kasaki and some other
guys in a great master mind and i
17
00:00:52,745 --> 00:00:56,431
[shannon_robnett]: was telling robert that when i read
his book rich dad poor dad it didn't
18
00:00:56,471 --> 00:00:59,436
[shannon_robnett]: mean a lot to me because i
grew up with poor dad right
19
00:00:59,325 --> 00:00:59,449
[casey_]: yep
20
00:00:59,897 --> 00:01:02,461
[shannon_robnett]: i grew up with a mom that
sold real that grew up with a dad
21
00:01:02,501 --> 00:01:05,887
[shannon_robnett]: that was a builder and a developer
and i saw all that happened and i
22
00:01:06,007 --> 00:01:09,733
[shannon_robnett]: saw all the hard work that went
with that and my parents were always scrambling
23
00:01:09,793 --> 00:01:13,820
[shannon_robnett]: for cash right so as i grew
up i grew into that deve it meant
24
00:01:13,940 --> 00:01:17,606
[shannon_robnett]: phase and i didn't like working with
home owners i liked working with business owners
25
00:01:17,646 --> 00:01:21,272
[shannon_robnett]: and so i kind of veered away
from the single family home side of things
26
00:01:21,333 --> 00:01:25,500
[shannon_robnett]: and went into the commercial development and
i built hospitals of city halls fire station
27
00:01:26,401 --> 00:01:32,651
[shannon_robnett]: police stations medical office you name it
i've built it and i just kind of
28
00:01:32,792 --> 00:01:36,318
[shannon_robnett]: in the last couple of years found
myself in the indication world because of my
29
00:01:36,398 --> 00:01:40,253
[shannon_robnett]: own personal development we're getting too big
for a single check writer
30
00:01:40,674 --> 00:01:40,818
[casey_]: yep
31
00:01:41,114 --> 00:01:45,281
[shannon_robnett]: the last deal i did was a
hundred and eighty unit multi family apartment complex
32
00:01:45,762 --> 00:01:49,007
[shannon_robnett]: that was a single check writer he
wrote the checks i did all the work
33
00:01:49,428 --> 00:01:53,154
[shannon_robnett]: we had a beautiful partner ship but
we were going bigger than that and it
34
00:01:53,314 --> 00:01:58,183
[shannon_robnett]: got to the place where i had
to look outside of that single person and
35
00:01:58,223 --> 00:02:02,910
[shannon_robnett]: so i had to kind of step
into that sindication world and that was the
36
00:02:03,071 --> 00:02:06,376
[shannon_robnett]: x i had to solve for i
had all of the experience over thirty years
37
00:02:06,496 --> 00:02:11,525
[shannon_robnett]: of doing construction and development three and
fifty million dollars in personal deals that i've
38
00:02:11,605 --> 00:02:17,253
[shannon_robnett]: done however i'd never really solved for
x in the sense that x was my
39
00:02:17,373 --> 00:02:21,318
[shannon_robnett]: capital need and now i've been thrust
into that world over the last couple of
40
00:02:21,338 --> 00:02:22,479
[shannon_robnett]: years trying to solve for that
41
00:02:23,044 --> 00:02:28,752
[casey_]: yeah well and so many people get
stuck in that
42
00:02:32,468 --> 00:02:34,412
[casey_]: i don't want to i don't eve
know what to call like a matrix or
43
00:02:34,472 --> 00:02:35,473
[casey_]: something is when
44
00:02:35,370 --> 00:02:35,612

00:02:48,566 --> 00:02:51,210
[casey_]: up my single family stuff was
53
00:02:50,890 --> 00:02:51,054
[shannon_robnett]: right

[casey_]: you
79
00:03:34,582 --> 00:03:39,430
[shannon_robnett]: you what god bless her you know
but you know what what i looked at
80
00:03:39,550 --> 00:03:42,215
[shannon_robnett]: was i was developing for other people
81
00:03:42,675 --> 00:03:42,818
[casey_]: yep
82
00:03:42,696 --> 00:03:46,563
[shannon_robnett]: right and i came to this place
where i had an industrial development that i
83
00:03:46,724 --> 00:03:51,035
[shannon_robnett]: done a few small multi family and
like you just said i came to this
84
00:03:51,095 --> 00:03:55,023
[shannon_robnett]: place where i hit the wall i
found this partner and we're building a hundred
85
00:03:55,063 --> 00:03:58,789
[shannon_robnett]: and eighty unit deal right it was
it was a forty million dollar project to
86
00:03:58,849 --> 00:04:03,337
[shannon_robnett]: build it we sold it and made
fantastic money on it but in that solving
87
00:04:03,477 --> 00:04:08,034
[shannon_robnett]: for i had to figure out what
was going on and there was a gentleman
88
00:04:08,074 --> 00:04:10,899
[shannon_robnett]: on the other side of the transaction
that was buying it that says oh you
89
00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:14,445
[shannon_robnett]: guys must have indicated your capital and
this was about three years ago and i
90
00:04:14,545 --> 00:04:18,468
[shannon_robnett]: just looked at and i said indicated
what does that mean and he looked at
91
00:04:18,508 --> 00:04:22,793
[shannon_robnett]: me like i had just now just
arrived here from another planet how can you
92
00:04:22,853 --> 00:04:23,274
[shannon_robnett]: be involved
93
00:04:23,194 --> 00:04:23,315
[casey_]: yeah
94
00:04:23,294 --> 00:04:28,302
[shannon_robnett]: in multi family and not know about
sindication right and so at that point this
95
00:04:28,422 --> 00:04:33,330
[shannon_robnett]: gentleman came out of the movies and
i you know in the in these eighties
96
00:04:33,391 --> 00:04:38,057
[shannon_robnett]: and nineties that's how they raised money
make movies and so he'd been involved
97
00:04:37,814 --> 00:04:38,095
[casey_]: still
98
00:04:38,117 --> 00:04:38,177
[shannon_robnett]: in
99
00:04:38,135 --> 00:04:38,275
[casey_]: do
100
00:04:38,277 --> 00:04:38,798
[shannon_robnett]: syndication
101
00:04:38,435 --> 00:04:38,956
[casey_]: no no no
102
00:04:38,858 --> 00:04:39,279
[shannon_robnett]: in holland
103
00:04:39,016 --> 00:04:41,321
[casey_]: no no they still do that they
still do that
104
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:41,480
[shannon_robnett]: they
105
00:04:41,361 --> 00:04:41,602
[casey_]: to their
106
00:04:41,540 --> 00:04:41,640
[shannon_robnett]: do
107
00:04:41,682 --> 00:04:41,882
[casey_]: day
108
00:04:42,682 --> 00:04:46,048
[shannon_robnett]: yeah they do but they were the
only ones that did that right before the
109
00:04:46,108 --> 00:04:46,408
[shannon_robnett]: cares
110
00:04:46,245 --> 00:04:46,407
[casey_]: at
111
00:04:46,548 --> 00:04:47,169
[shannon_robnett]: act we really
112
00:04:47,064 --> 00:04:47,208
[casey_]: yep
113
00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:51,877
[shannon_robnett]: couldn't do that in our space or
it wasn't done on the hundred unit level
114
00:04:52,238 --> 00:04:52,438
[shannon_robnett]: right
115
00:04:52,425 --> 00:04:52,567
[casey_]: right
116
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:58,108
[shannon_robnett]: on so as i solved for that
i realized that my problem was i could
117
00:04:58,328 --> 00:05:04,078
[shannon_robnett]: scale i could develop i could find
all kinds of deals but my ceiling was
118
00:05:04,158 --> 00:05:05,139
[shannon_robnett]: my capital side
119
00:05:05,494 --> 00:05:05,700
[casey_]: yeah
120
00:05:05,540 --> 00:05:06,401
[shannon_robnett]: right and
121
00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:06,551
[casey_]: oh
122
00:05:06,942 --> 00:05:11,129
[shannon_robnett]: and i think in the multi family
world we all run into that whether it's
123
00:05:11,650 --> 00:05:15,497
[shannon_robnett]: we have all the capital but we
can't find deal flow we've got you know
124
00:05:15,557 --> 00:05:20,645
[shannon_robnett]: we've got deal flow but no cap
we've got operational issues you know whatever it
125
00:05:20,725 --> 00:05:21,807
[shannon_robnett]: is there's always that
126
00:05:22,144 --> 00:05:22,864
[casey_]: yeah
127
00:05:22,288 --> 00:05:24,111
[shannon_robnett]: that that you have to solve for
128
00:05:24,455 --> 00:05:24,599
[casey_]: yep
129
00:05:24,552 --> 00:05:30,703
[shannon_robnett]: right and for each person it's different
for each group it's different and in the
130
00:05:30,743 --> 00:05:35,574
[shannon_robnett]: development the construction world that's not a
team sport right but the multi family
131
00:05:35,415 --> 00:05:35,577
[casey_]: right
132
00:05:35,734 --> 00:05:37,418
[shannon_robnett]: indication world is
133
00:05:37,914 --> 00:05:38,056
[casey_]: yep
134
00:05:38,270 --> 00:05:41,673
[shannon_robnett]: there's a lot of a lot of
people out there and you know i've spent
135
00:05:41,733 --> 00:05:46,017
[shannon_robnett]: the week with kitty michael roy and
jason hartman and some really big names that
136
00:05:46,277 --> 00:05:51,642
[shannon_robnett]: are helping me break that ceiling i
still have to solve for x and it's
137
00:05:52,323 --> 00:05:56,288
[shannon_robnett]: it's been an interesting journey but at
the end of the day it's helped me
138
00:05:56,488 --> 00:06:03,646
[shannon_robnett]: find where i don't have to actually
be solution to all my problems right
139
00:06:03,975 --> 00:06:04,155
[casey_]: hey
140
00:06:04,147 --> 00:06:04,308
[shannon_robnett]: which
141
00:06:04,295 --> 00:06:10,726
[casey_]: man that you said it right there
try getting to a position where you or
142
00:06:10,710 --> 00:06:11,520
[shannon_robnett]: oh
143
00:06:10,806 --> 00:06:17,117
[casey_]: me don't have to be a solution
for my problem ms i think to me
144
00:06:17,217 --> 00:06:20,664
[casey_]: that's that's almost like a roundabout definition
of of
145
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:21,102
[shannon_robnett]: oh
146
00:06:20,764 --> 00:06:22,527

[shannon_robnett]: exactly
150
00:06:24,631 --> 00:06:25,172
[casey_]: the freedom
151
00:06:25,081 --> 00:06:28,547
[shannon_robnett]: and and what you're trying to do
is you you look you you're good at
152
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:32,774
[shannon_robnett]: case your your business you can do
every aspect of it i don't
153
00:06:32,655 --> 00:06:32,799
[casey_]: yeah
154
00:06:32,854 --> 00:06:34,377
[shannon_robnett]: doubt right there's
155
00:06:34,230 --> 00:06:34,804
[casey_]: hm
156
00:06:34,457 --> 00:06:37,326
[shannon_robnett]: parts of it that you'd rather slam
fingers in the door then do
157
00:06:37,774 --> 00:06:37,897
[casey_]: yep
158
00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:41,913
[shannon_robnett]: you do because and there's parts of
it that you jump up out of bed
159
00:06:42,074 --> 00:06:45,437
[shannon_robnett]: early in the morning to go to
those pieces because it's what you love it's
160
00:06:45,497 --> 00:06:50,113
[shannon_robnett]: what attracted you to this you know
this field in this way of making money
161
00:06:50,915 --> 00:06:54,300
[shannon_robnett]: and and what i've had to learn
is that solving for x means that either
162
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,688
[shannon_robnett]: you build a company and bring in
other people that have that as a strength
163
00:06:59,389 --> 00:07:04,177
[shannon_robnett]: or you out source and partner with
others that have that as a strength right
164
00:07:04,554 --> 00:07:04,677
[casey_]: yep
165
00:07:04,978 --> 00:07:10,968
[shannon_robnett]: and so but but that was really
hard for me after twenty eight years of
166
00:07:11,108 --> 00:07:16,477
[shannon_robnett]: doing deals my own to train myself
that i could cheat right that i could
167
00:07:16,838 --> 00:07:21,265
[shannon_robnett]: i could short cut i didn't have
to go raise you know all fifty eight
168
00:07:21,325 --> 00:07:28,835
[shannon_robnett]: million dollars by myself even i did
i learned after that that there's an easier
169
00:07:28,955 --> 00:07:30,498
[shannon_robnett]: way to do this and
170
00:07:30,645 --> 00:07:30,867
[casey_]: okay
171
00:07:31,139 --> 00:07:35,967
[shannon_robnett]: it really is about getting involved in
finding other people that can take you to
172
00:07:36,027 --> 00:07:41,776
[shannon_robnett]: that next level and then what you'll
find is your super power of underwriting or
173
00:07:41,796 --> 00:07:46,805
[shannon_robnett]: whatever then takes it to another level
and then you're dragging your capital raise people
174
00:07:47,025 --> 00:07:51,698
[shannon_robnett]: up your however you're partnering up it
just becomes this this climb to the top
175
00:07:51,799 --> 00:07:53,787
[shannon_robnett]: this awesome to participate it
176
00:07:54,915 --> 00:08:00,725
[casey_]: yeah and you know and so many
people think the only way between a and
177
00:08:00,865 --> 00:08:05,472
[casey_]: c is through b when in fact
or you know what i'm saying you can
178
00:08:05,533 --> 00:08:05,933
[casey_]: get there
179
00:08:05,980 --> 00:08:06,101
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
180
00:08:06,254 --> 00:08:06,554
[casey_]: easier
181
00:08:06,605 --> 00:08:06,726
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
182
00:08:06,674 --> 00:08:11,999
[casey_]: fact or better and man i'll tell
you when you start talking about though like
183
00:08:12,719 --> 00:08:18,916
[casey_]: when you start talking about simplifying and
elevating up that's what that right there is
184
00:08:19,016 --> 00:08:23,023
[casey_]: probably what really stuck out to me
when i very very very first started down
185
00:08:23,263 --> 00:08:26,308
[casey_]: the path of not not the real
estate business as i've been the real same
186
00:08:26,369 --> 00:08:29,314
[casey_]: es since for fifteen years but when
i fire
187
00:08:29,211 --> 00:08:29,352
[shannon_robnett]: right
188
00:08:29,414 --> 00:08:33,721
[casey_]: started down the path of capital raising
and learning and trying to figure out what
189
00:08:34,562 --> 00:08:35,724
[casey_]: that all that stuff
190
00:08:35,670 --> 00:08:36,399
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
191
00:08:35,864 --> 00:08:40,432
[casey_]: meant to me man i was like
dude i can simplify like i can take
192
00:08:41,013 --> 00:08:45,266
[casey_]: so much of this stuff and simplified
into one for instance one of the very
193
00:08:45,386 --> 00:08:50,979
[casey_]: first i don't know things that like
came into my mind i heard somebody say
194
00:08:51,039 --> 00:08:56,468
[casey_]: something about a virtual assistant and all
these years my assistant had set right next
195
00:08:56,528 --> 00:09:02,424
[casey_]: to me in my office had had
you know i had had physical pieces of
196
00:09:02,485 --> 00:09:05,670
[casey_]: paper and things that i would take
and hand to her and she would do
197
00:09:05,850 --> 00:09:11,219
[casey_]: right never in a million years did
i ever think somebody else could do this
198
00:09:11,319 --> 00:09:16,047
[casey_]: from afar on their own computer screen
and then to you can go a step
199
00:09:16,147 --> 00:09:19,072
[casey_]: further than you say okay hey this
person can do it for a dollar and
200
00:09:19,092 --> 00:09:22,418
[casey_]: a quarer an hour which based to
some people like why are you ripping those
201
00:09:22,438 --> 00:09:24,882
[casey_]: people off no i'm gonna tell you
a dollar and a quarter an hour is
202
00:09:25,323 --> 00:09:28,190
[casey_]: good money a lot of people in
this world because
203
00:09:28,243 --> 00:09:28,383
[shannon_robnett]: well
204
00:09:28,250 --> 00:09:28,390
[casey_]: of the
205
00:09:28,444 --> 00:09:28,524
[shannon_robnett]: and
206
00:09:28,450 --> 00:09:28,972
[casey_]: exchange
207
00:09:28,544 --> 00:09:31,432
[shannon_robnett]: then the other thing that you could
the other thing you can do is you
208
00:09:31,492 --> 00:09:35,899
[shannon_robnett]: need somebody for six hours of graphic
design right and then you need somebody for
209
00:09:35,999 --> 00:09:40,487
[shannon_robnett]: six hours of organization and you need
somebody for these other aspects of the deal
210
00:09:40,927 --> 00:09:46,366
[shannon_robnett]: where you're able to actually get specialists
in those areas that now you can not
211
00:09:46,466 --> 00:09:54,694
[shannon_robnett]: only at that price point get into
you know a specialist in that area you
212
00:09:54,674 --> 00:09:54,796
[casey_]: yeah
213
00:09:54,714 --> 00:09:58,701
[shannon_robnett]: know and and you know here's another
thing that kind of clicked with me to
214
00:09:58,801 --> 00:10:02,948
[shannon_robnett]: k c along those same lines is
i sat there and i looked at and
215
00:10:02,988 --> 00:10:09,652
[shannon_robnett]: i said you know i really think
i'm smarter than warren buffet obviously no warren
216
00:10:09,753 --> 00:10:12,526
[shannon_robnett]: buffet really only does one thing
217
00:10:12,765 --> 00:10:13,467
[casey_]: what we do
218
00:10:14,930 --> 00:10:21,702
[shannon_robnett]: he buys businesses that are already providing
cash flow using other people's money
219
00:10:21,564 --> 00:10:21,745
[casey_]: there
220
00:10:21,762 --> 00:10:21,942
[shannon_robnett]: you're
221
00:10:21,846 --> 00:10:21,927
[casey_]: you
222
00:10:22,002 --> 00:10:22,723
[shannon_robnett]: exactly
223
00:10:22,007 --> 00:10:22,128
[casey_]: go
224
00:10:22,823 --> 00:10:23,064
[shannon_robnett]: right
225
00:10:22,893 --> 00:10:23,075
[casey_]: by
226
00:10:23,525 --> 00:10:24,306
[shannon_robnett]: you're exactly right
227
00:10:24,686 --> 00:10:24,851
[casey_]: okay

00:10:24,807 --> 00:10:25,648
[shannon_robnett]: and when i saw
229
00:10:25,564 --> 00:10:25,584
[casey_]: m
230
00:10:25,848 --> 00:10:30,496
[shannon_robnett]: that i knew i wasn't smarter than
warren buffet why wasn't i doing what warren
231
00:10:30,576 --> 00:10:37,969
[shannon_robnett]: did warren didn't underwrite the deal right
r buffet didn't operationally run the deal he
232
00:10:38,169 --> 00:10:43,277
[shannon_robnett]: saw a good strong business that had
a balance sheet that he liked had a
233
00:10:43,438 --> 00:10:47,364
[shannon_robnett]: product that he liked whether that was
coca cola or net jets or whatever it
234
00:10:47,424 --> 00:10:54,302
[shannon_robnett]: was he saw the opportunity to to
harness that cash flow using other people's cash
235
00:10:55,164 --> 00:10:55,286
[casey_]: yep
236
00:10:55,165 --> 00:10:59,347
[shannon_robnett]: and i just went this is genius
and all he was good at was one
237
00:10:59,427 --> 00:11:01,924
[shannon_robnett]: thing he was good at putting together
the team
238
00:11:02,444 --> 00:11:02,565
[casey_]: yep
239
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,763
[shannon_robnett]: and charlie munger on there that did
the operational side of things i would i
240
00:11:06,803 --> 00:11:10,607
[shannon_robnett]: would guess he had other people in
wall street that brought him all the capital
241
00:11:10,667 --> 00:11:12,969
[shannon_robnett]: he could ever use and he just
put deals together
242
00:11:13,975 --> 00:11:19,544
[casey_]: that's exactly right man i'll tell you
i hit that whole warren buffet is just
243
00:11:19,604 --> 00:11:24,151
[casey_]: like us thing like within my very
first like ten or fifteen episodes i was

00:11:25,390 --> 00:11:25,532
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
246
00:11:25,634 --> 00:11:29,881
[casey_]: where we come from we've learned well
where we come from the master mind that
247
00:11:29,941 --> 00:11:35,591
[casey_]: i come from we have um my
initial one was was we were learning about
248
00:11:35,671 --> 00:11:37,634
[casey_]: fund of funds model right like
249
00:11:37,886 --> 00:11:38,400
[shannon_robnett]: hm
250
00:11:37,955 --> 00:11:38,456
[casey_]: the fund of
251
00:11:38,430 --> 00:11:38,551
[shannon_robnett]: yep
252
00:11:38,556 --> 00:11:41,241
[casey_]: fun where you go out you raise
money then you invest in somebody
253
00:11:41,250 --> 00:11:41,411
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
254
00:11:41,281 --> 00:11:42,944
[casey_]: else's deal ah
255
00:11:43,671 --> 00:11:43,772
[shannon_robnett]: it
256
00:11:43,806 --> 00:11:47,812
[casey_]: and being that middle man between the
capital and putting
257
00:11:47,713 --> 00:11:47,816
[shannon_robnett]: eh
258
00:11:47,852 --> 00:11:52,340
[casey_]: the investor relations part on us was
was what it was all about and then
259
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:55,624
[casey_]: and then it dawned on me i
was like wait a minute wait a minute
260
00:11:55,705 --> 00:11:59,391
[casey_]: wait a minute wait a minute warm
buffet this is exactly what he does because
261
00:11:59,481 --> 00:11:59,625
[shannon_robnett]: yep
262
00:11:59,491 --> 00:12:03,978
[casey_]: all he's doing is going out and
he's calling his list his list the list
263
00:12:03,998 --> 00:12:05,881
[casey_]: that he's built over these hundreds of
years
264
00:12:05,761 --> 00:12:06,285
[shannon_robnett]: exactly
265
00:12:06,142 --> 00:12:09,588
[casey_]: his list that he's built over all
these years and he's saying hey guys i
266
00:12:09,708 --> 00:12:13,294
[casey_]: think that coca cola is the move
like coca cola
267
00:12:13,300 --> 00:12:14,070
[shannon_robnett]: right
268
00:12:13,354 --> 00:12:15,738
[casey_]: as got this manager they've got this
and he and
269
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:16,284
[shannon_robnett]: yep
270
00:12:16,199 --> 00:12:22,916
[casey_]: even to go a step further he
specifically invests in the management team obviously they
271
00:12:22,976 --> 00:12:27,046
[casey_]: underwrite the deal and see the financials
and all that stuff but he said we
272
00:12:27,127 --> 00:12:30,497
[casey_]: hire good managers and other than that
we play bridge and i was like
273
00:12:30,622 --> 00:12:30,724
[shannon_robnett]: it
274
00:12:31,984 --> 00:12:34,027
[casey_]: wait what and so you're right
275
00:12:33,860 --> 00:12:34,001
[shannon_robnett]: yep
276
00:12:34,167 --> 00:12:34,929
[casey_]: that team is
277
00:12:34,980 --> 00:12:35,283
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
278
00:12:35,469 --> 00:12:36,131
[casey_]: so so
279
00:12:36,272 --> 00:12:36,373
[shannon_robnett]: and
280
00:12:36,331 --> 00:12:36,992
[casey_]: so important
281
00:12:37,150 --> 00:12:42,161
[shannon_robnett]: and now he's gotten to the point
that when warren buffet buys a business its
282
00:12:42,241 --> 00:12:45,028
[shannon_robnett]: stock automatically goes up because everybody in
town
283
00:12:46,334 --> 00:12:46,474
[casey_]: no
284
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,022
[shannon_robnett]: follows warren buffet to the deal and
goes
285
00:12:49,462 --> 00:12:49,602
[casey_]: yeh
286
00:12:49,463 --> 00:12:52,927
[shannon_robnett]: that's the best underwriting in town and
it's the cheapest you just find out what
287
00:12:53,067 --> 00:12:54,109
[shannon_robnett]: warren buffet buys
288
00:12:54,594 --> 00:12:54,737
[casey_]: yeah
289
00:12:54,980 --> 00:12:56,586
[shannon_robnett]: and you go buy what warranted
290
00:12:56,304 --> 00:12:56,966
[casey_]: well and
291
00:12:56,887 --> 00:12:57,067
[shannon_robnett]: right
292
00:12:57,006 --> 00:13:00,972
[casey_]: you know they're going to underwrite you
know they're gonna hey they're going to conservatively
293
00:13:01,032 --> 00:13:06,381
[casey_]: underwrite and you know good and well
that there's quite a bit of probably corporate
294
00:13:06,521 --> 00:13:09,867
[casey_]: fat there he's going to cut and
he's going
295
00:13:09,830 --> 00:13:09,974
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
296
00:13:09,907 --> 00:13:14,174
[casey_]: to increase the it's the same way
we increase the value of an apartment building
297
00:13:14,535 --> 00:13:15,116
[casey_]: right shannon
298
00:13:14,777 --> 00:13:15,262
[shannon_robnett]: completely
299
00:13:15,617 --> 00:13:16,698
[casey_]: you take that apartment
300
00:13:16,425 --> 00:13:16,852
[shannon_robnett]: absolutely
301
00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:21,730
[casey_]: building you increase the income you decrease
the expenses ultimate value of that apartment building
302
00:13:21,850 --> 00:13:23,716
[casey_]: then becomes the
303
00:13:24,053 --> 00:13:24,216
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
304
00:13:24,699 --> 00:13:26,625
[casey_]: caporate divided by
305

[shannon_robnett]: it's you know that's just the thing
and it's very few people that can see
321
00:13:58,761 --> 00:14:03,368
[shannon_robnett]: that there are so many opportunities you
know there's another gal that i follow on
322
00:14:04,530 --> 00:14:10,096
[shannon_robnett]: on instagram case sanchez and her whole
thing is about buying businesses right she likes
323
00:14:10,176 --> 00:14:12,699
[shannon_robnett]: businesses that spit cash flow and don't
take a lot of work
324
00:14:13,484 --> 00:14:13,605
[casey_]: yep
325
00:14:13,500 --> 00:14:15,022
[shannon_robnett]: well she hasn't quite
326
00:14:14,914 --> 00:14:15,618
[casey_]: oh
327
00:14:15,142 --> 00:14:20,832
[shannon_robnett]: warmed up to apartments are a business
she still thinks they're you know hundred and
328
00:14:20,872 --> 00:14:25,319
[shannon_robnett]: eighty people that are essentially located to
be a pain in your butt and they
329
00:14:25,379 --> 00:14:27,683
[shannon_robnett]: can be that right case we know
that but
330
00:14:27,834 --> 00:14:28,036
[casey_]: yes
331
00:14:28,084 --> 00:14:28,484
[shannon_robnett]: but the other
332
00:14:28,541 --> 00:14:29,188
[casey_]: absolutely
333
00:14:28,545 --> 00:14:31,429
[shannon_robnett]: side of it is they are a
cash flow business right you're setting this
334
00:14:31,474 --> 00:14:31,595
[casey_]: yep
335
00:14:31,510 --> 00:14:36,097
[shannon_robnett]: up you're taking long term debt you're
leveraging and we do something a little bit
336
00:14:36,157 --> 00:14:41,042
[shannon_robnett]: better because we create original value add
right where we go in and we find
337
00:14:41,082 --> 00:14:45,069
[shannon_robnett]: the land we develop the property we
build the units and we operate brand new
338
00:14:45,169 --> 00:14:50,558
[shannon_robnett]: properties so where most people are factoring
in a thirty six to forty five percent
339
00:14:50,618 --> 00:14:53,643
[shannon_robnett]: expense ratio we're down in the high
twenties right because
340
00:14:53,475 --> 00:14:53,619
[casey_]: yep
341
00:14:53,683 --> 00:14:58,191
[shannon_robnett]: we've got brand new we've got warrant
we've got energy efficient you know we've got
342
00:14:58,291 --> 00:15:01,135
[shannon_robnett]: all the amenities that everybody likes at
the beginning right
343
00:15:01,654 --> 00:15:01,674
[casey_]: m
344
00:15:01,716 --> 00:15:05,723
[shannon_robnett]: and we're not having to reach fit
you know the big thing after covid is
345
00:15:05,763 --> 00:15:09,830
[shannon_robnett]: everybody wants to work from home space
in an apartment well when you're when you're
346
00:15:09,870 --> 00:15:14,378
[shannon_robnett]: trying to buy a c and make
it a b that's kind of you're limited
347
00:15:14,878 --> 00:15:17,586
[shannon_robnett]: by this here able to design that
stuff in right
348
00:15:17,484 --> 00:15:18,285
[casey_]: yep yep
349
00:15:18,810 --> 00:15:23,918
[shannon_robnett]: you're still only taking these pieces and
putting together to make the cash flow that
350
00:15:23,978 --> 00:15:26,443
[shannon_robnett]: goes through that business stop with you
right
351
00:15:26,265 --> 00:15:26,388
[casey_]: yep
352
00:15:27,184 --> 00:15:31,455
[shannon_robnett]: and and so when you can really
grasp that you can take exactly what we
353
00:15:31,576 --> 00:15:36,945
[shannon_robnett]: do and go well i can do
it with you know a department complex or
354
00:15:37,085 --> 00:15:42,033
[shannon_robnett]: i can do it with my local
you know in my town it's called tates
355
00:15:42,134 --> 00:15:45,639
[shannon_robnett]: rents it's where you go to run
a road a hammer or a concrete mixer
356
00:15:45,780 --> 00:15:46,460
[shannon_robnett]: a jack hammer
357
00:15:46,884 --> 00:15:47,025
[casey_]: yeah
358
00:15:46,921 --> 00:15:50,464
[shannon_robnett]: you know a wheelbarrow or skin steer
or whatever but you can do the same
359
00:15:50,504 --> 00:15:54,067
[shannon_robnett]: thing there because you're buying these assets
you're assembling them you're putting them in a
360
00:15:54,127 --> 00:15:59,833
[shannon_robnett]: space you're renting them out you're creating
cash flow all of that takes money which
361
00:15:59,933 --> 00:16:03,760
[shannon_robnett]: is what x is that we're solving
for so now you're going to go out
362
00:16:03,780 --> 00:16:06,905
[shannon_robnett]: and yo're going to put together a
business model that allows people to come in
363
00:16:06,945 --> 00:16:08,888
[shannon_robnett]: and see that this is what x
is
364
00:16:09,314 --> 00:16:09,455
[casey_]: yep
365
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,787
[shannon_robnett]: here's how you get a return without
having to be the guy checking things out
366
00:16:13,927 --> 00:16:16,531
[shannon_robnett]: making sure the trailer is hooked up
and all that kind of stuff before they
367
00:16:16,591 --> 00:16:18,154
[shannon_robnett]: leave the yard with a skin start
right
368
00:16:18,294 --> 00:16:18,417
[casey_]: yep
369
00:16:18,815 --> 00:16:22,922
[shannon_robnett]: but it's those kinds of things that
the end the thing that i pulled away
370
00:16:22,982 --> 00:16:27,269
[shannon_robnett]: from that when i look back at
that warren buffet model is stopped trying to
371
00:16:27,309 --> 00:16:33,299
[shannon_robnett]: be charlie munger warren buffet the funds
manager the guy that's running coca cola and
372
00:16:33,359 --> 00:16:35,944
[shannon_robnett]: the guy driving the freight to the
store stop
373
00:16:35,994 --> 00:16:36,139
[casey_]: yep
374
00:16:36,044 --> 00:16:40,812
[shannon_robnett]: being all those people in your business
figure out what your business is all about
375
00:16:41,252 --> 00:16:45,740
[shannon_robnett]: start making phone calls to people that
aren't that or do what you don't like
376
00:16:45,860 --> 00:16:46,100
[shannon_robnett]: to do
377
00:16:46,674 --> 00:16:46,797
[casey_]: yep
378
00:16:46,922 --> 00:16:50,568
[shannon_robnett]: and start creating those partnerships where you
can say hey i have a group of
379
00:16:50,648 --> 00:16:55,015
[shannon_robnett]: people that love to put capital to
work in deals like what you have or
380
00:16:55,516 --> 00:16:59,749
[shannon_robnett]: i am a guy that has more
deal flow than i have capital let's look
381
00:16:59,789 --> 00:17:06,890
[shannon_robnett]: at putting some stuff together where we
can operationally makes some things happen that we
382
00:17:06,950 --> 00:17:08,036
[shannon_robnett]: can be like warm buffet too
383
00:17:08,744 --> 00:17:09,929

to complete this project or something right and
394
00:17:42,982 --> 00:17:46,969

and fifty thousand dollars just say and he
395
00:17:47,029 --> 00:17:51,186
[casey_]: would flat turn it down we don't
have the money you know when in reality
396
00:17:51,306 --> 00:17:54,371

there there was no problem with the money
397
00:17:54,532 --> 00:17:58,739
[casey_]: but he saw it as an unnecessary
expense that somebody could know their way around
398
00:17:59,380 --> 00:17:59,760
[casey_]: cut that
399
00:17:59,700 --> 00:17:59,862

[shannon_robnett]: between where you're at and where you
could have been is the amount of time
455
00:20:26,924 --> 00:20:31,568
[shannon_robnett]: and effort you put in to learning
and perfecting the craft from people that already
456
00:20:31,648 --> 00:20:32,549

470
00:20:58,587 --> 00:21:01,892
[shannon_robnett]: of his business he lives in his
factories for crying out loud
471
00:21:02,254 --> 00:21:02,375
[casey_]: yep
472
00:21:02,333 --> 00:21:06,540
[shannon_robnett]: because he wants to make sure that
he understands every part of the proces now
473
00:21:06,641 --> 00:21:12,483
[shannon_robnett]: he's just running the thing you know

[casey_]: talk about
478
00:21:18,614 --> 00:21:18,714
[shannon_robnett]: and
479
00:21:20,175 --> 00:21:20,276
[casey_]: ah
480
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:24,028
[shannon_robnett]: yeah i know you know it's going
to blow up right and when they first
481
00:21:24,088 --> 00:21:28,478
[shannon_robnett]: started they had to commit space had
to commit to a certain number of launches
482
00:21:28,964 --> 00:21:29,126
[casey_]: yep
483
00:21:29,620 --> 00:21:32,885
[shannon_robnett]: fifty cents on the dollar so he
got a hundred million dollar rocket going up
484
00:21:33,607 --> 00:21:37,333
[shannon_robnett]: and we you have to commit to
insure the next ten or something like that
485
00:21:37,373 --> 00:21:39,436
[shannon_robnett]: because i know i got to get
my money back right
486
00:21:39,594 --> 00:21:39,737
[casey_]: yep
487
00:21:40,198 --> 00:21:44,765
[shannon_robnett]: and but that another thing where he
outsourced what he didn't want to do because
488
00:21:44,785 --> 00:21:48,792
[shannon_robnett]: he didn't want to burn up all
of his investors money right but he had
489
00:21:48,852 --> 00:21:52,378
[shannon_robnett]: to insure that he could get there
with the trial and error process
490
00:21:52,774 --> 00:21:53,704

[shannon_robnett]: only
550
00:23:27,325 --> 00:23:27,425
[casey_]: the
551
00:23:27,349 --> 00:23:27,491
[shannon_robnett]: thing
552
00:23:27,485 --> 00:23:27,625
[casey_]: way
553
00:23:27,531 --> 00:23:27,934
[shannon_robnett]: you are
554
00:23:28,406 --> 00:23:31,129

blue ink and by the way we don't
555
00:23:31,170 --> 00:23:31,850
[casey_]: want using
556
00:23:31,729 --> 00:23:31,851
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
557
00:23:31,930 --> 00:23:33,773
[casey_]: this and yeah it's not
558
00:23:33,706 --> 00:23:34,172
[shannon_robnett]: exactly
559
00:23:34,794 --> 00:23:34,915
[casey_]: it's
560
00:23:34,910 --> 00:23:34,990
[shannon_robnett]: and
561
00:23:34,996 --> 00:23:35,157
[casey_]: just
562
00:23:35,030 --> 00:23:35,351
[shannon_robnett]: the only
563
00:23:35,238 --> 00:23:35,439
[casey_]: not
564
00:23:35,391 --> 00:23:38,159
[shannon_robnett]: thing that you're there for is to
sign for the load to be the fall
565
00:23:38,239 --> 00:23:39,422
[shannon_robnett]: guy if things go south that's
566
00:23:39,604 --> 00:23:39,725
[casey_]: yep
567
00:23:39,683 --> 00:23:42,352
[shannon_robnett]: that's what you figure out on that
deal pretty quick you know
568
00:23:42,264 --> 00:23:44,768
[casey_]: that's exactly right and everything is taylor
to their direction
569
00:23:45,744 --> 00:23:45,886
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
570
00:23:45,910 --> 00:23:49,256
[casey_]: no it didn't take very long it
was just i didn't ever i'd never even
571
00:23:49,636 --> 00:23:53,943
[casey_]: began down the path of institutional money
partially because i've been i've been involved in
572
00:23:54,084 --> 00:23:57,429
[casey_]: nough deal is real estate deals enough
to know that you know what the big
573
00:23:57,509 --> 00:24:02,678
[casey_]: guys want you know when you're dealing
with institutional type stuff and so um but
574
00:24:03,079 --> 00:24:05,803
[casey_]: it really just didn't fit our business
model too much too much control
575
00:24:05,540 --> 00:24:05,661
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
576
00:24:06,064 --> 00:24:10,852
[casey_]: much to and again it's just muddy
water just not the fact that that i
577
00:24:10,972 --> 00:24:14,357
[casey_]: can't you know that i have to
be in control or something like that but
578
00:24:14,397 --> 00:24:17,583
[casey_]: it's just you don't want somebody else
making the decisions that then you're taking
579
00:24:17,612 --> 00:24:17,816
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
580
00:24:17,623 --> 00:24:19,999
[casey_]: the fall you're the fog guy for
the rest of your investors
581
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:21,341
[shannon_robnett]: and
582
00:24:21,334 --> 00:24:21,499
[casey_]: yeah
583
00:24:21,361 --> 00:24:23,106
[shannon_robnett]: the other thing the other thing is
you
584
00:24:23,134 --> 00:24:24,724
[casey_]: yeah
585
00:24:23,166 --> 00:24:26,718
[shannon_robnett]: know typically what happens with institutional money
is they're going to raise a capital
586
00:24:28,476 --> 00:24:28,619
[casey_]: yeah
587
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,946
[shannon_robnett]: they're not necessarily great at running businesses
they want the
588
00:24:31,914 --> 00:24:32,116
[casey_]: can't
589
00:24:32,007 --> 00:24:32,287
[shannon_robnett]: bottom
590
00:24:32,216 --> 00:24:32,659
[casey_]: operate
591
00:24:32,347 --> 00:24:32,688
[shannon_robnett]: line to
592
00:24:32,719 --> 00:24:32,880
[casey_]: yet
593
00:24:32,728 --> 00:24:38,788
[shannon_robnett]: look good and and so here you
are operationally in conflict the whole time with
594
00:24:38,868 --> 00:24:43,215
[shannon_robnett]: them over what's going to happen and
hey you know we need to eliminate this
595
00:24:43,355 --> 00:24:47,162
[shannon_robnett]: we can't eliminate that that's why people
write us you know these are the things
596
00:24:47,214 --> 00:24:47,336
[casey_]: yep
597
00:24:47,482 --> 00:24:49,365
[shannon_robnett]: that doesn't make sense you know and
598
00:24:49,516 --> 00:24:49,678
[casey_]: yeah
599
00:24:49,726 --> 00:24:53,132
[shannon_robnett]: the other thing is you know when
you when you go to master minds you
600
00:24:53,312 --> 00:24:57,459
[shannon_robnett]: learn that this is the right way
to go you learn ways that you don't
601
00:24:57,539 --> 00:25:00,163
[shannon_robnett]: have to go to institutional money right
and you're
602
00:25:00,094 --> 00:25:00,215
[casey_]: yep
603
00:25:00,224 --> 00:25:04,411
[shannon_robnett]: not stuck with this other guy in
your deal called perry pursue right i learned
604
00:25:04,471 --> 00:25:09,078
[shannon_robnett]: about him pretty quickly and what perry
pursue does is he takes all your profits
605
00:25:09,098 --> 00:25:10,881
[shannon_robnett]: and gives it to the end titutions
right
606
00:25:10,904 --> 00:25:11,047
[casey_]: yep
607
00:25:11,522 --> 00:25:13,525
[shannon_robnett]: and that's based on how much we
invest in how
608
00:25:13,564 --> 00:25:13,726
[casey_]: yeah
609
00:25:13,585 --> 00:25:15,709
[shannon_robnett]: much you invest is how we get
paid out
610
00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:17,202
[casey_]: man
611
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:17,382
[shannon_robnett]: i found out
612
00:25:17,323 --> 00:25:17,665

00:25:52,957 --> 00:25:53,339
[casey_]: than that
630
00:25:53,267 --> 00:25:53,548
[shannon_robnett]: the thing
631
00:25:53,479 --> 00:25:53,600
[casey_]: what
632
00:25:53,588 --> 00:25:57,434
[shannon_robnett]: that i the thing that i've always
looked at in my business is how to
633
00:25:57,474 --> 00:25:58,255
[shannon_robnett]: be taxefficialt
634
00:25:58,674 --> 00:25:58,798
[casey_]: yep
635
00:25:58,716 --> 00:26:02,963
[shannon_robnett]: right i mean i learned early on
that i did not like my silent partner
636
00:26:03,103 --> 00:26:04,185
[shannon_robnett]: he was fat he
637
00:26:04,144 --> 00:26:04,804
[casey_]: yeah
638
00:26:04,265 --> 00:26:08,252
[shannon_robnett]: was lazy he was ugly and he
took way much for what he gave me
639
00:26:08,672 --> 00:26:12,879
[shannon_robnett]: and that was my uncle sam right
and so i've worked hard to eliminate him
640
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,046
[shannon_robnett]: out of my life and so the
first thing that we do is we try
641
00:26:17,166 --> 00:26:22,155
[shannon_robnett]: to make sure that our investments are
ver tax efficient right we've got we've got
642
00:26:22,215 --> 00:26:27,283
[shannon_robnett]: an investment currently that we're doing right
now that is we bought an old warehouse
643
00:26:28,045 --> 00:26:31,651
[shannon_robnett]: we're in the position of zoning the
warehouse we're going to put hundred an seventy
644
00:26:31,731 --> 00:26:36,058
[shannon_robnett]: unit department complex on there but this
year we're taking the bonus appreciation on a
645
00:26:36,098 --> 00:26:42,068
[shannon_robnett]: five million dollar warehouse and we're going
to erase a million and a half dollars
646
00:26:42,168 --> 00:26:46,936
[shannon_robnett]: in value next year we're going to
tear down the warehouse and claim the rest
647
00:26:46,996 --> 00:26:51,833
[shannon_robnett]: of that five million dollars in appreciation
and then out of that we're going to
648
00:26:51,853 --> 00:26:55,701
[shannon_robnett]: build a new building so we've already
started out with a two and a half
649
00:26:55,781 --> 00:27:00,049
[shannon_robnett]: million dollar equity investment and a five
million dollar tax credit
650
00:27:00,894 --> 00:27:01,335
[casey_]: well let
651
00:27:01,292 --> 00:27:01,915
[shannon_robnett]: depreciation
652
00:27:01,375 --> 00:27:07,508
[casey_]: me ask you this i'd like to
know the i'd like to know the what
653
00:27:07,548 --> 00:27:09,640
[casey_]: are you using to make that happen
so fast
654
00:27:10,260 --> 00:27:14,447
[shannon_robnett]: well the reality is it's just appreciation
right so you're taking a hundred percent bonus
655
00:27:14,547 --> 00:27:18,494
[shannon_robnett]: appreciation this year so you take a
five million dollar investment take about thirty percent
656
00:27:18,554 --> 00:27:19,235
[shannon_robnett]: of that right
657
00:27:19,655 --> 00:27:19,675
[casey_]: a
658
00:27:19,976 --> 00:27:24,182
[shannon_robnett]: so you've done your cost segregation study
now you've taken a million and a half
659
00:27:24,222 --> 00:27:28,187
[shannon_robnett]: dollars off you pass that on to
the investors right they enjoy that and then
660
00:27:28,267 --> 00:27:32,404
[shannon_robnett]: next year you demo the building now
you're going back to the is you're saying
661
00:27:32,444 --> 00:27:37,877
[shannon_robnett]: hey the building is gone so that
other seventy percent of appreciation were taking that
662
00:27:38,057 --> 00:27:43,005
[shannon_robnett]: now so then you're taking another three
and a half million dollars in appreciation you're
663
00:27:43,046 --> 00:27:45,109
[shannon_robnett]: distributing that to your investors right
664
00:27:45,074 --> 00:27:45,196
[casey_]: yeah
665
00:27:46,360 --> 00:27:50,887
[shannon_robnett]: and then you're bringing in the capital
and you're going vertical right
666
00:27:50,859 --> 00:27:50,941
[casey_]: ah
667
00:27:51,308 --> 00:27:55,936
[shannon_robnett]: so now everybody started out with more
tax benefit than dollars going in you're in
668
00:27:56,476 --> 00:27:59,822
[shannon_robnett]: almost a two hundred and fifty per
cent tax benefit to cash in
669
00:28:00,527 --> 00:28:01,054
[casey_]: hm
670
00:28:00,543 --> 00:28:05,051
[shannon_robnett]: then we build an asset out of
that so we start with you having tax
671
00:28:05,592 --> 00:28:07,034
[shannon_robnett]: credit rather than
672
00:28:07,324 --> 00:28:07,687
[casey_]: yeah
673
00:28:07,435 --> 00:28:08,456
[shannon_robnett]: coming to a place where your
674
00:28:08,595 --> 00:28:08,979
[casey_]: correct
675
00:28:08,597 --> 00:28:11,543
[shannon_robnett]: income is going to be taxed we
with a hole right
676
00:28:12,106 --> 00:28:12,287
[casey_]: yeah
677
00:28:12,365 --> 00:28:12,466
[shannon_robnett]: and
678
00:28:12,408 --> 00:28:12,489
[casey_]: and
679
00:28:12,526 --> 00:28:12,626
[shannon_robnett]: i've
680
00:28:12,529 --> 00:28:12,953
[casey_]: then you're
681
00:28:12,726 --> 00:28:13,188
[shannon_robnett]: found it
682
00:28:14,864 --> 00:28:18,947
[casey_]: and then you're not only starting with
a hole but then you're starting back you
683
00:28:18,987 --> 00:28:21,410
[casey_]: can build back and then if i'm
not mistaken
684
00:28:21,250 --> 00:28:21,513
[shannon_robnett]: correct
685
00:28:21,470 --> 00:28:25,313
[casey_]: take appreciation on the new that's there
after it's built
686
00:28:25,260 --> 00:28:30,889
[shannon_robnett]: exactly exactly and your cost segregation study
is going to help you then you're going
687
00:28:31,010 --> 00:28:35,537
[shannon_robnett]: to i think they've extended the forty
five l which is a energy efficient credit
688
00:28:35,577 --> 00:28:40,065
[shannon_robnett]: that you get with new const ruction
which is a true tax credit which is
689
00:28:40,145 --> 00:28:43,935
[shannon_robnett]: about forty five hundred dollars a door
sorry twenty five hundred dollars
690
00:28:43,886 --> 00:28:44,067
[casey_]: right
691
00:28:43,996 --> 00:28:44,257
[shannon_robnett]: a door
692
00:28:44,408 --> 00:28:46,921
[casey_]: yeah just passed yep you're exactly right
693
00:28:46,891 --> 00:28:51,283
[shannon_robnett]: and and so now we put in
a hundred ere gonna call it two hundred
694
00:28:51,383 --> 00:28:54,746
[shannon_robnett]: units so we get another twenty five
hundred dollars a dollar on two hundred units
695
00:28:54,786 --> 00:28:57,449
[shannon_robnett]: so we get another two and a
half million dollar tax credit
696
00:28:57,954 --> 00:28:58,098
[casey_]: yep
697
00:28:58,250 --> 00:29:00,533
[shannon_robnett]: that's dollar for dollar against your taxable
698
00:29:00,544 --> 00:29:01,264
[casey_]: yeah
699
00:29:00,694 --> 00:29:03,378
[shannon_robnett]: income that gets passed on to the
investors right
700
00:29:03,335 --> 00:29:03,479
[casey_]: yep
701
00:29:04,099 --> 00:29:04,199
[shannon_robnett]: so
702
00:29:04,134 --> 00:29:04,275
[casey_]: that's
703
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:04,420
[shannon_robnett]: when
704
00:29:04,315 --> 00:29:04,437
[casey_]: your
705
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,829
[shannon_robnett]: you do those things now i've just
increased everybody's r i on what we already
706
00:29:09,949 --> 00:29:13,638
[shannon_robnett]: had twenty to thirty per cent because
we just cut out our ugly uncle
707
00:29:14,105 --> 00:29:14,247
[casey_]: yep
708
00:29:14,202 --> 00:29:14,366
[shannon_robnett]: right
709
00:29:15,024 --> 00:29:15,452
[casey_]: that's right
710
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,767
[shannon_robnett]: so when we do that and you
get to do that a lot with development
711
00:29:19,827 --> 00:29:23,714
[shannon_robnett]: and investing you get to do that
a lot when you have the ability to
712
00:29:23,794 --> 00:29:29,631
[shannon_robnett]: put these deals together that allows you
to be in that ositian you're in the
713
00:29:29,671 --> 00:29:35,100
[shannon_robnett]: driver's seat because you raise the capital
you're in the driver's seat because you you
714
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,928
[shannon_robnett]: did the development and you sold for
x and every single one of these situations
715
00:29:39,988 --> 00:29:42,715
[shannon_robnett]: and in some case is you've partnered
with the solution
716
00:29:43,124 --> 00:29:43,244
[casey_]: yeah
717
00:29:43,136 --> 00:29:43,337
[shannon_robnett]: right
718
00:29:43,686 --> 00:29:44,028
[casey_]: that's right
719
00:29:44,510 --> 00:29:47,975
[shannon_robnett]: and so that's really kind of what
we're doing now we've got about eight hundred
720
00:29:48,055 --> 00:29:52,543
[shannon_robnett]: doors in the pipe line that are
various stages we've got currently about two hundred
721
00:29:52,583 --> 00:29:59,842
[shannon_robnett]: and fifty ner construction addition to that
but we're doing things make sense on a
722
00:30:00,043 --> 00:30:03,101
[shannon_robnett]: tax basis also and
723
00:30:03,086 --> 00:30:03,229
[casey_]: yeah
724
00:30:03,141 --> 00:30:06,906
[shannon_robnett]: we're paying a lot of attention because
as you know case a lot of the
725
00:30:06,946 --> 00:30:10,843
[shannon_robnett]: people that you're dealing with that are
investors of yours are coming to you because
726
00:30:10,883 --> 00:30:14,397
[shannon_robnett]: they have money and usually people with
money have tax problems
727
00:30:14,784 --> 00:30:18,355
[casey_]: that's right most all the time they
go hand in hand so all
728
00:30:18,310 --> 00:30:18,691
[shannon_robnett]: exactly
729
00:30:18,395 --> 00:30:19,198
[casey_]: right listen we're
730
00:30:19,072 --> 00:30:19,173
[shannon_robnett]: so
731
00:30:19,278 --> 00:30:19,679
[casey_]: running up
732
00:30:19,714 --> 00:30:19,975
[shannon_robnett]: again
733
00:30:19,740 --> 00:30:20,181
[casey_]: towards the end
734
00:30:20,135 --> 00:30:20,476
[shannon_robnett]: solvent
735
00:30:20,221 --> 00:30:20,261
[casey_]: of
736
00:30:20,516 --> 00:30:20,777
[shannon_robnett]: for x
737
00:30:21,544 --> 00:30:22,987
[casey_]: yes solving for x that's
738
00:30:22,950 --> 00:30:24,390
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
739
00:30:23,047 --> 00:30:24,650
[casey_]: the problem to be that should be
the title
740
00:30:24,450 --> 00:30:24,883
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
741
00:30:24,690 --> 00:30:26,132
[casey_]: of your book there
742
00:30:26,090 --> 00:30:27,676
[shannon_robnett]: at'srhtthat's
743
00:30:26,152 --> 00:30:27,764
[casey_]: you go when you write
744
00:30:27,757 --> 00:30:27,937
[shannon_robnett]: right
745
00:30:27,804 --> 00:30:30,266
[casey_]: your book code its solving for x
all right so listen
746
00:30:30,146 --> 00:30:30,467
[shannon_robnett]: i will
747
00:30:31,187 --> 00:30:34,190
[casey_]: a couple of questions we ask every
guest that comes on the show the first
748
00:30:34,290 --> 00:30:37,933
[casey_]: of those is what is the best

[shannon_robnett]: yep
789
00:32:24,814 --> 00:32:28,835
[casey_]: now i get to the hard part

790
00:32:28,895 --> 00:32:31,680
[casey_]: fly you think it so my grandfather
was killed in playing crash right he was
791
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:32,441
[casey_]: the pilot of this
792
00:32:32,404 --> 00:32:32,850
[shannon_robnett]: hm
793
00:32:32,501 --> 00:32:33,763
[casey_]: plane died in the plane crash
794
00:32:33,849 --> 00:32:33,870
[shannon_robnett]: m
795
00:32:34,504 --> 00:32:34,805
[casey_]: and so
796
00:32:34,963 --> 00:32:35,490
[shannon_robnett]: hm
797
00:32:35,286 --> 00:32:40,534
[casey_]: about i don't know several months ago
i started like because i'm i'm like within
798
00:32:40,595 --> 00:32:44,541
[casey_]: just a couple of years of being
the age he was when he died and
799
00:32:44,621 --> 00:32:45,022
[casey_]: so there
800
00:32:44,982 --> 00:32:45,510
[shannon_robnett]: hm
801
00:32:45,082 --> 00:32:49,569
[casey_]: was this there was this thought that
my mother and my aunt had that maybe
802
00:32:49,830 --> 00:32:49,910
[casey_]: he
803
00:32:49,860 --> 00:32:50,062
[shannon_robnett]: oh
804
00:32:50,271 --> 00:32:53,897
[casey_]: actually had a heart attack while he
was fine causing the plane to go down
805
00:32:54,658 --> 00:32:58,645
[casey_]: and so obviously with that thought and
me being just a just a hair under
806
00:32:59,045 --> 00:33:02,110
[casey_]: or just a hair over a year
younger than he was when he died and
807
00:33:02,170 --> 00:33:05,663
[casey_]: had a hard attack i'm like all
right start figuring out e mean because you
808
00:33:05,683 --> 00:33:09,436
[casey_]: know i'm like you're like all right
this is almost like mid life crisis

00:33:09,180 --> 00:33:09,840
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
810
00:33:09,457 --> 00:33:10,378

[shannon_robnett]: right
812
00:33:10,979 --> 00:33:11,119
[casey_]: where

00:33:11,077 --> 00:33:11,461
[shannon_robnett]: exactly
814
00:33:11,179 --> 00:33:16,047
[casey_]: i'm going with it as i did
not realize how many air strips there are
815
00:33:16,108 --> 00:33:17,590
[casey_]: in this country like even
816
00:33:17,648 --> 00:33:17,790
[shannon_robnett]: yeah
817
00:33:17,650 --> 00:33:19,914

[shannon_robnett]: yep yep
821
00:33:25,623 --> 00:33:28,689
[casey_]: town in this entire country i'm talking

822
00:33:28,749 --> 00:33:28,929
[casey_]: land
823
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:28,921
[shannon_robnett]: yep
824
00:33:28,989 --> 00:33:29,630
[casey_]: in a field

[casey_]: an air strip out of yeah
829
00:33:32,150 --> 00:33:36,978
[shannon_robnett]: absolutely and there's it's such a great
way to see the us because you're not
830
00:33:37,158 --> 00:33:41,105
[shannon_robnett]: following the main inter state that runs
through town and you're on the business bypaths
831
00:33:41,185 --> 00:33:44,953
[shannon_robnett]: and you know you're really getting to
see the outskirts and the own and and
832
00:33:45,053 --> 00:33:48,264
[shannon_robnett]: what's in between and you're doing it
at a pace that fits you
833
00:33:48,684 --> 00:33:48,827
[casey_]: yep
