i grew up so that gives you a

21
00:01:05,592 --> 00:01:05,692
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it's

22
00:01:05,599 --> 00:01:05,719
[casey_]: title

23
00:01:05,793 --> 00:01:06,355
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: deminimous

yourself and then we can get into investing

26
00:01:15,204 --> 00:01:22,774
[casey_]: across borders and just you see exactly
what all of this means and how folks

27
00:01:22,875 --> 00:01:25,938
[casey_]: can maybe implement strategies you've got or
anything like that so tell us a ittle

28
00:01:25,958 --> 00:01:26,519
[casey_]: bit about yourself

29
00:01:27,583 --> 00:01:32,702
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: sure so i'm laurence coin emeriginally from
toronto i'm here in south florida to be

30
00:01:32,762 --> 00:01:34,445
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: confused with texas right but i do

31
00:01:34,370 --> 00:01:34,534
[casey_]: that's

32
00:01:34,545 --> 00:01:34,665
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: work

33
00:01:34,615 --> 00:01:34,800
[casey_]: right

34
00:01:34,726 --> 00:01:38,191
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: with a lot of people actually my
client just got off the phone with is

35
00:01:38,291 --> 00:01:40,355
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: investing in texas so i am

36
00:01:40,344 --> 00:01:40,686
[casey_]: awesome

37
00:01:40,395 --> 00:01:45,303
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: a cross border lawyer a realtor and
a franchise broker and i tualize in helping

38
00:01:45,524 --> 00:01:48,368
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: mostly canadians but not exclusively invest

39
00:01:48,090 --> 00:01:48,252
[casey_]: okay

40
00:01:48,468 --> 00:01:53,497
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: in real estate and secure immigration visas
through their investments they also set up businesses

41
00:01:53,617 --> 00:01:59,038
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: expand their businesses develop franchise busies is
property management business is all over the country

42
00:01:59,882 --> 00:02:05,546
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and often as i mentioned get immigration
viz so my super power rests in turning

43
00:02:05,707 --> 00:02:09,550
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: a passive real estate investor into an
active real estate business owner which is what

44
00:02:09,610 --> 00:02:13,124
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: they actually need to do to get
a visa whereas

45
00:02:12,991 --> 00:02:13,133
[casey_]: sure

46
00:02:13,184 --> 00:02:16,710
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: of course for you with indications they
want to be passive

47
00:02:17,150 --> 00:02:17,314
[casey_]: that's

48
00:02:17,211 --> 00:02:17,371
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: which

49
00:02:17,355 --> 00:02:17,498
[casey_]: right

50
00:02:17,451 --> 00:02:21,238
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: most of us as real estate investors
want to be passively involved but in order

51
00:02:21,318 --> 00:02:23,121
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: to get a reason you have to
be actively involved

52
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:24,180
[casey_]: yeah

53
00:02:23,501 --> 00:02:25,009
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: so hats where my super power rests

54
00:02:25,530 --> 00:02:27,012
[casey_]: interesting interesting

55
00:02:26,652 --> 00:02:27,432
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

56
00:02:27,052 --> 00:02:28,595
[casey_]: i don't think there's i would say

57
00:02:28,542 --> 00:02:29,142
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

58
00:02:28,635 --> 00:02:33,042
[casey_]: there's a lot of even the most
seasoned real estate investors that don't realize that

59
00:02:33,203 --> 00:02:40,013
[casey_]: and and what that would take so
um all right so you obviously wear a

60
00:02:40,073 --> 00:02:40,696
[casey_]: lot of hats

61
00:02:41,622 --> 00:02:41,642
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: m

62
00:02:42,542 --> 00:02:48,133
[casey_]: and we want to i guess maybe
pull a few of those apart and see

63
00:02:48,213 --> 00:02:55,816
[casey_]: exactly what we can take from this
is so with all right so the benefit

64
00:02:56,116 --> 00:03:01,567
[casey_]: of investing if you're a canadian resident
and you want to be a united states

65
00:03:02,590 --> 00:03:06,217
[casey_]: you want to you want to have
a united states visa you have to be

66
00:03:06,164 --> 00:03:06,792
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hm

67
00:03:06,457 --> 00:03:07,920
[casey_]: an active investor in

68
00:03:08,434 --> 00:03:08,454
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: m

69
00:03:08,501 --> 00:03:11,247
[casey_]: like a deal or you just have
to own property

70
00:03:11,192 --> 00:03:11,272
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: no

71
00:03:11,588 --> 00:03:11,648
[casey_]: or

72
00:03:11,653 --> 00:03:15,763
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: no more than that no it's you
don't you have you can't just be an

73
00:03:15,864 --> 00:03:20,884
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: active investor you have to actually be
running a business so being an investor alone

74
00:03:20,924 --> 00:03:27,315
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: will not qualify you as as a
potential visa prospect you have to be running

75
00:03:27,575 --> 00:03:33,984
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: the investment as a i'm sorry as
a business for example and in your case

76
00:03:34,044 --> 00:03:38,351
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: where you're running the indications and you're
raising the capital and you're probably the limited

77
00:03:38,411 --> 00:03:42,738
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: partner or the general partner i should
say in most cases and you're developing this

78
00:03:42,778 --> 00:03:47,927
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: indication and all of that would be
actively running that indication as a business so

79
00:03:48,067 --> 00:03:51,934
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: you could potentially qualify if you need
to devise but if you were just one

80
00:03:51,974 --> 00:03:56,864
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: of the investors a limited partner in
that indication then that would not qualify you

81
00:03:59,301 --> 00:04:05,912
[casey_]: interesting okay all right now m so
where does where does your process start i

82
00:04:05,972 --> 00:04:11,301
[casey_]: mean do you do you look for
do you like have a list of people

83
00:04:11,381 --> 00:04:14,647
[casey_]: in canada that you call in to
hey i've got a good deal down here

84
00:04:14,767 --> 00:04:18,854
[casey_]: if you're still let me i guess
i'd like to get some more some some

85
00:04:19,134 --> 00:04:25,556
[casey_]: more context into maybe what your entire
process is and exactly what that entails

86
00:04:26,602 --> 00:04:29,767
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: so that would be a little bit
of reverse engineering versus what we do yes

87
00:04:29,988 --> 00:04:33,473
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: from time to time we do have
opportunities that will appeal to some of my

88
00:04:33,654 --> 00:04:37,380
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: investors that are in canada that may
or may not want bess because not all

89
00:04:37,921 --> 00:04:41,787
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: as you know sure no canadians that
invest in real estate want visas they just

90
00:04:41,807 --> 00:04:46,775
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: want to invest in us real estate
because it's a better opportunity and then the

91
00:04:46,816 --> 00:04:50,822
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: more common way that i work with
a client is that you know joe joe

92
00:04:50,882 --> 00:04:54,448
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: canadian will come to me or joe
it will come to me and say i

93
00:04:54,488 --> 00:04:56,752
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: want to get a visa how do
i do it and i want to do

94
00:04:56,812 --> 00:05:00,518
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it through real estate so i'm going
to help them pave my actually have a

95
00:05:00,879 --> 00:05:06,568
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: signature program called tents steps to immigrate
through real estate and we follow these ten

96
00:05:06,689 --> 00:05:10,896
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: step ten step process to help them
to make the investment right the business plan

97
00:05:10,956 --> 00:05:14,602
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: get the cross quarter tax advice all
of the elements that they need set up

98
00:05:14,662 --> 00:05:18,669
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: their structure they are their entities their
l p their l c whatever the case

99
00:05:18,769 --> 00:05:23,817
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: is and make sure that they are
following the rules and not creating more problems

100
00:05:23,857 --> 00:05:28,745
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: for themselves in the process and then
we help them develop their business plan and

101
00:05:28,806 --> 00:05:33,213
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: business model and ultimately help them with
their visa application and

102
00:05:33,231 --> 00:05:33,333
[casey_]: oh

103
00:05:33,273 --> 00:05:34,295
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: petition and submission

104
00:05:34,592 --> 00:05:34,674
[casey_]: ah

105
00:05:34,876 --> 00:05:39,292
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: now in many cases we do have
real estate investors that are just investing in

106
00:05:39,332 --> 00:05:43,339
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: real estate and don't want to visa
they want to take advantage of various aspects

107
00:05:43,419 --> 00:05:47,867
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: of the us market whether be for
short term rentals for long term rentals for

108
00:05:47,927 --> 00:05:52,374
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: mixed use from multi family and we
work with them as well so as i

109
00:05:52,454 --> 00:05:56,882
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: mentioned i'm a lawyer and a realtor
and i'm the chair of the international investment

110
00:05:56,942 --> 00:06:02,772
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: committee for apes p commercial so i'm
pretty well connected to people all over them

111
00:06:02,852 --> 00:06:08,561
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: country that do have access to deal
flow and opportunities and um you know we

112
00:06:08,661 --> 00:06:12,047
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: helped the client figure out where they
want to invest in what they want to

113
00:06:12,127 --> 00:06:16,597
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: invest how much their budget might be
how can get financing and so on it's

114
00:06:16,757 --> 00:06:17,700
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: very full service

115
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,425
[casey_]: kay now

116
00:06:24,097 --> 00:06:29,193
[casey_]: the so that's where the real ter
the real estate agent whichever you want to

117
00:06:29,233 --> 00:06:35,826
[casey_]: call it um aspect comes into it
is you're out looking for deals or you're

118
00:06:35,906 --> 00:06:38,623
[casey_]: just helping that company with

119
00:06:38,462 --> 00:06:41,988
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: so i'm not the one that actually
looks for the deals i am the kind

120
00:06:42,048 --> 00:06:47,437
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: of the conduit so i'm i'm essentially
like brokering these situations i'm a great referral

121
00:06:47,557 --> 00:06:51,825
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: agent i don't actually write deals myself
so i just had a closing today i

122
00:06:51,945 --> 00:06:57,234
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: referred the client they purchased a property
in orlando was actually new construction and i'm

123
00:06:57,274 --> 00:07:01,501
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: the referral agent but i'm not actually
involved in the closing of the transaction other

124
00:07:01,561 --> 00:07:05,267
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: than to let a nice fee in
that case i also helped the client set

125
00:07:05,327 --> 00:07:08,773
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: up their structure and everything like that
this client is not getting a visa they

126
00:07:08,873 --> 00:07:13,441
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: are just doing this for investment purposes
and they're going to rent the property ultimately

127
00:07:13,581 --> 00:07:19,170
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: as an air and be so um
it really just depends on the client and

128
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:23,217
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: the clients need and how that works
but my role is mainly in the real

129
00:07:23,297 --> 00:07:29,150
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: estate world as a passive real estate
real ter conduit more of a an investment

130
00:07:29,210 --> 00:07:35,465
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: advisor as opposed to actually doing real
estate deals going out on the ground knocking

131
00:07:35,545 --> 00:07:37,990
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: on doors getting the listings i don't
do that

[casey_]: and then

135
00:07:40,573 --> 00:07:42,407
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: only so many hats one can wear
right

136
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,427
[casey_]: that's right that's right yeah and i
think you about masked it out

137
00:07:46,374 --> 00:07:46,575

00:07:47,452 --> 00:07:55,364
[casey_]: so the all right let's talk about
active investments in what you have going on

[casey_]: re you currently raising capital as well
yourself

[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it's covid

195
00:09:44,451 --> 00:09:44,652
[casey_]: yeah

196
00:09:44,742 --> 00:09:50,569
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: this is really covid and people from
the north east especially or from canada being

197
00:09:50,649 --> 00:09:54,877
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: able to work from home and realizing

[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i didn't want to deal with

00:09:58,310 --> 00:09:58,434
[casey_]: yep

203
00:09:59,094 --> 00:10:02,358
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: they don't need to deal with the
sledge they don't need to deal with the

204
00:10:02,418 --> 00:10:06,658
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: cold and and the you know all
the long winters

205
00:10:06,231 --> 00:10:09,616
[casey_]: i think i think covid changed a
lot of

206
00:10:09,523 --> 00:10:09,830
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it did

207
00:10:10,217 --> 00:10:12,321
[casey_]: human culture like like

208
00:10:12,488 --> 00:10:13,122
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hm

209
00:10:12,521 --> 00:10:16,548
[casey_]: just and i say that human culture
because it didn't just change our culture here

210
00:10:16,568 --> 00:10:20,013
[casey_]: i mean i think it changed the
cult world wide but all of

211
00:10:20,082 --> 00:10:20,742
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

212
00:10:20,133 --> 00:10:22,416
[casey_]: a sudden and i'll tell you a

213
00:10:24,192 --> 00:10:24,393
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

214
00:10:24,258 --> 00:10:24,518
[casey_]: right

215
00:10:25,563 --> 00:10:25,804
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: okay

216
00:10:26,061 --> 00:10:31,530
[casey_]: two weeks before covid hit i had
met with a guy about buying his dry

217
00:10:31,650 --> 00:10:33,293
[casey_]: cleaning business right and it

218
00:10:33,259 --> 00:10:33,792
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hm

219
00:10:33,353 --> 00:10:38,460
[casey_]: was just a it was he was
interested in selling it mike my grandfather was

220
00:10:38,521 --> 00:10:40,522
[casey_]: in the dry cleaning business and so
i thought

221
00:10:40,423 --> 00:10:40,464
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: m

222
00:10:40,623 --> 00:10:43,725
[casey_]: i was like a little bit of
this nostalgia for me right and

223
00:10:43,732 --> 00:10:43,896
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

224
00:10:43,886 --> 00:10:49,783
[casey_]: even up to that point he said
he said it my business has dropped off

225
00:10:49,843 --> 00:10:54,110
[casey_]: and he showed me the percentages over
the last like ten years and obviously ultimately

226
00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:57,996
[casey_]: i didn't into buying it for that
being one of the main reasons why because

227
00:10:58,036 --> 00:11:02,163
[casey_]: the business was shrinking in general and
so we were talking and i was trying

228
00:11:02,183 --> 00:11:05,689
[casey_]: to feel this on it's what what
do you what is the cause he

229
00:11:05,734 --> 00:11:05,855
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: thank

230
00:11:05,749 --> 00:11:09,075
[casey_]: said well for one people don't get
dressed up to go to church right they

231
00:11:09,135 --> 00:11:11,459
[casey_]: just don't they just don't wear the
suits and the ties and

232
00:11:11,962 --> 00:11:12,106
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

233
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,647
[casey_]: there everything that that that they used
to wear years ago to go just to

234
00:11:16,687 --> 00:11:19,913
[casey_]: go just and that's just one day
one event and then he

235
00:11:19,902 --> 00:11:20,064
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: right

236
00:11:19,973 --> 00:11:24,440
[casey_]: went further and said people don't get
suit and tie for the most part there's

237
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:29,929
[casey_]: a certain demographic that does get that
for going to work right but that demographic

238
00:11:30,010 --> 00:11:35,539
[casey_]: was shrinking as people became more accustomed
to just little more of a casual kind

239
00:11:35,579 --> 00:11:36,881
[casey_]: of thing right and i'm getting to
a

240
00:11:36,859 --> 00:11:37,392
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hm

241
00:11:36,921 --> 00:11:39,465
[casey_]: point here i promise and then

242
00:11:39,606 --> 00:11:39,689
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: at

243
00:11:40,086 --> 00:11:45,656
[casey_]: when you step in and you think
okay then covid hit and and i talked

244
00:11:45,716 --> 00:11:50,844
[casey_]: to him after about that first year
so i talked to him again the following

245
00:11:50,924 --> 00:11:56,774
[casey_]: january after covid and in fact his
business had dropped off like so he had

246
00:11:56,814 --> 00:12:00,360

248
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,427
[casey_]: per cent a year or every couple
of years for so long and then all

249
00:12:04,447 --> 00:12:07,372
[casey_]: of a sudden it was down like
sixty per cent and we all know why

250
00:12:07,472 --> 00:12:10,217
[casey_]: because nobody nobody was going to church
at that point even the people that

251

00:13:35,324 --> 00:13:35,425
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: am

293
00:13:35,355 --> 00:13:37,801
[casey_]: hear a little more about that and
what do you have

294
00:13:37,602 --> 00:13:37,808
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

295
00:13:37,861 --> 00:13:40,488
[casey_]: because if you're you're a passive investor
i assume right

296
00:13:40,982 --> 00:13:41,205
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yes

297
00:13:42,270 --> 00:13:45,936
[casey_]: okay just the lady we want to
hear from because a lot of times the

298
00:13:45,976 --> 00:13:51,766
[casey_]: capital raisers and the indicators and the
other people that have frustrations in this business

299
00:13:52,387 --> 00:13:57,816
[casey_]: don't get to hear directly from you
or a lot of the time and that's

300
00:13:57,916 --> 00:14:02,704
[casey_]: because you know so so walk us
through a little bit how you evaluate what

301
00:14:02,764 --> 00:14:06,129
[casey_]: you look for and what you look
for in a deal in order to decide

302
00:14:06,270 --> 00:14:09,529
[casey_]: it's something you want to make your
move on

303
00:14:10,624 --> 00:14:12,074
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: you're not going to like my answer

304
00:14:12,802 --> 00:14:12,822
[casey_]: a

305
00:14:14,434 --> 00:14:22,138
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: um yeah so my answer is basically
it's in my gut i do trench numbers

306
00:14:22,318 --> 00:14:29,320
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i have a system but my god
ultimately is the deciding factor and i don't

307
00:14:29,380 --> 00:14:33,092
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: mind doing flips as long as i
have somebody to manage the flips but i

308
00:14:33,253 --> 00:14:36,866
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: don't love doing a lot of birds
i don't like being a landlord so much

309
00:14:38,442 --> 00:14:39,223
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: but you know when

310
00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:40,482
[casey_]: ye

311
00:14:40,325 --> 00:14:44,632
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: when opportunity is there certainly here in
florida there's a lot of that i'll do

312
00:14:44,732 --> 00:14:48,017
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it so it really just depends on
the circumstance and the type of

313
00:14:47,972 --> 00:14:49,110
[casey_]: kay

314
00:14:48,839 --> 00:14:50,161
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: investment that i'm considering

315
00:14:51,401 --> 00:14:57,112
[casey_]: sure now i want to i'm gonna
rain that in just a little bit and

316
00:14:57,293 --> 00:15:04,672
[casey_]: say you know you're not that different
than pretty much every investor

317
00:15:04,272 --> 00:15:04,932
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

318
00:15:04,832 --> 00:15:06,176
[casey_]: across the board you know

319
00:15:06,372 --> 00:15:06,392
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: m

320
00:15:07,410 --> 00:15:10,256
[casey_]: i have noticed and i'm in a
master mind with some with a

321
00:15:10,272 --> 00:15:10,475
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

322
00:15:10,336 --> 00:15:11,638
[casey_]: bunch of people as matter of fact

323
00:15:12,312 --> 00:15:12,573
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: right

324
00:15:12,830 --> 00:15:14,553
[casey_]: and we often have this

325
00:15:15,282 --> 00:15:16,152
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

326
00:15:15,334 --> 00:15:22,325
[casey_]: discussion this exact discussion and you can
stand up in front of a room full

327
00:15:22,386 --> 00:15:27,975
[casey_]: of investors and you can say there
and you can say look this investment has

328
00:15:28,115 --> 00:15:30,519
[casey_]: this r r we are expecting this

329
00:15:30,383 --> 00:15:30,403
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i

330
00:15:30,719 --> 00:15:35,147
[casey_]: a a r the cash on cash
return is this and this and this it's

331
00:15:35,287 --> 00:15:36,249
[casey_]: forty eight doors

332
00:15:36,201 --> 00:15:36,222
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: m

333
00:15:36,349 --> 00:15:40,554
[casey_]: where expect me you can go through
all that pardon my voice i usually don't

334
00:15:40,594 --> 00:15:43,878
[casey_]: talk like that when i'm talking in
front of investors but you can go through

335
00:15:44,038 --> 00:15:50,686
[casey_]: all of that but at the end
of the day if you don't have some

336
00:15:50,866 --> 00:15:54,392
[casey_]: type of a relatable story to go
along with

337
00:15:54,462 --> 00:15:54,767
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

338
00:15:55,233 --> 00:15:55,494
[casey_]: this

339
00:15:56,433 --> 00:15:56,635
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: right

340
00:15:56,575 --> 00:16:02,630
[casey_]: and what attaches you and the fact
that you have if you can't show an

341
00:16:02,690 --> 00:16:08,972
[casey_]: emotional attachment to the asset you could
be buying the asset for ten per cent

342
00:16:09,133 --> 00:16:11,775
[casey_]: of what it's worth and you're not
going to be able to get a single

343
00:16:11,855 --> 00:16:13,097
[casey_]: investor now take that it's

344
00:16:13,055 --> 00:16:13,177
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: right

345
00:16:13,137 --> 00:16:14,058
[casey_]: not very extreme

346
00:16:14,568 --> 00:16:14,710
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

347
00:16:14,578 --> 00:16:15,019
[casey_]: but i just

348
00:16:14,952 --> 00:16:15,417
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i'm right

349
00:16:16,130 --> 00:16:21,886
[casey_]: but if you don't have a relatable
story and get in with people and show

350
00:16:22,027 --> 00:16:27,195
[casey_]: them you're going to take them by
the hand and you're going to invest their

351
00:16:27,256 --> 00:16:30,381
[casey_]: money like you would invest your own
and you're going to be

352
00:16:30,389 --> 00:16:30,942
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hm

353
00:16:30,461 --> 00:16:37,641
[casey_]: emotionally and physically and everything charged up
to take this thing down and make this

354
00:16:37,742 --> 00:16:44,338
[casey_]: deal go it's not it's just it
ends up being non existent so it's just

355
00:16:44,378 --> 00:16:47,203
[casey_]: very interesting that you say that it
comes down to your gut because i think

356
00:16:47,263 --> 00:16:47,483
[casey_]: that's

357
00:16:47,322 --> 00:16:48,162
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: okay

358
00:16:48,124 --> 00:16:53,154
[casey_]: i think that's there's some people out
there who are purely numbers and they're like

359
00:16:53,234 --> 00:16:57,042
[casey_]: manifet'syou know some of the family office
people and some of the bigger hedge phone

360
00:16:57,102 --> 00:16:58,505
[casey_]: managers and stuff they're like if it
doesn't

361
00:16:58,462 --> 00:16:58,644
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

362
00:16:58,525 --> 00:16:58,906
[casey_]: make numbers

363
00:16:58,746 --> 00:16:59,110
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: that's not

364
00:16:59,087 --> 00:16:59,207
[casey_]: don't

365
00:16:59,191 --> 00:16:59,232
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: me

366
00:16:59,507 --> 00:16:59,908
[casey_]: talk about it

367
00:17:01,502 --> 00:17:01,702
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i mean

368
00:17:01,682 --> 00:17:01,783
[casey_]: but

369
00:17:01,722 --> 00:17:05,532
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: that's where i came from i used
to work in a city group and various

370
00:17:05,713 --> 00:17:11,744
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: large financial institutions which are much or
cut and dry much less emotion

371
00:17:11,337 --> 00:17:11,850
[casey_]: hm

372
00:17:12,484 --> 00:17:13,525
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: big corporate america

373
00:17:14,140 --> 00:17:14,261
[casey_]: yep

374
00:17:14,266 --> 00:17:18,610
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: i didn't love it i really didn't
you know numbers are great but at the

375
00:17:18,650 --> 00:17:23,617
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: end of the day what i do
is a very emotional thing because most people

376
00:17:23,677 --> 00:17:28,479
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: that i'm working with are not only
investing they're moving their families and their lives

377
00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:30,045
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: from one country to another

378
00:17:30,196 --> 00:17:30,750
[casey_]: hm

379
00:17:30,266 --> 00:17:31,009
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: not just a city

[casey_]: yeah

381
00:17:31,773 --> 00:17:32,463
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: it's a big deal

382
00:17:33,102 --> 00:17:33,263

like real estate investing that you're there you're

392
00:17:56,430 --> 00:17:59,775
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: in it with them and i've been

498
00:22:05,577 --> 00:22:14,222
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: today but it was a very harrowing
experience and challenging and a lot to deal

[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

506
00:22:29,061 --> 00:22:32,467

there's a lot more context to that that

507
00:22:32,507 --> 00:22:35,592
[casey_]: could be added like you said just
leave that for for

508
00:22:35,582 --> 00:22:35,703
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: ah

509
00:22:35,832 --> 00:22:38,437

00:22:38,577 --> 00:22:39,719

00:22:50,545 --> 00:22:51,009
[casey_]: now what is

matter the details but basically i mean you're

figured out i guess so it's it's got

[casey_]: right and you got you really got

00:23:49,948 --> 00:23:57,161
[casey_]: international business lot partner or attorney rather

548
00:23:56,968 --> 00:23:57,522

549
00:23:58,045 --> 00:23:58,386
[casey_]: um

550
00:23:58,089 --> 00:23:58,662

[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: uh

554
00:24:05,674 --> 00:24:05,835
[casey_]: for

555
00:24:06,681 --> 00:24:06,702
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: h

556
00:24:06,757 --> 00:24:07,057
[casey_]: i mean

557
00:24:06,952 --> 00:24:13,364
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: no well so i'm an immigration lawyer
so initially i would writing well once i

558
00:24:13,444 --> 00:24:19,174
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: became an immigration lawyer which took training
and attending conferences and then i started speaking

559
00:24:19,234 --> 00:24:22,259
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and initially i paid to speak and
then i got paid to speak which is

560
00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:26,245
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: what i am now paid to speak
with nice um and in the process of

561
00:24:26,306 --> 00:24:32,135
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: doing that i built a following especially
among other immigration attorneys because most immigration attorneys

562
00:24:32,215 --> 00:24:35,841
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: are not business experts so they would
come to me and i would help them

563
00:24:35,922 --> 00:24:40,146
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: with the business side of their cases
and it developed into a nice little niche

564
00:24:40,266 --> 00:24:40,727
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and then this

565
00:24:40,740 --> 00:24:41,003
[casey_]: oh

566
00:24:40,787 --> 00:24:43,510
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: thing called v five which i don't
know if you've heard of it that's the

567
00:24:43,650 --> 00:24:47,770
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: program the four national invests in a
us business

568
00:24:47,448 --> 00:24:47,528
[casey_]: it

569
00:24:47,990 --> 00:24:48,131
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and

570
00:24:48,060 --> 00:24:48,301
[casey_]: yeah

571
00:24:48,351 --> 00:24:54,245
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: obtains a green car connected to their
investment and the creation of jobs indirectly or

572
00:24:54,305 --> 00:24:54,686
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: directly

573
00:24:54,476 --> 00:24:55,420
[casey_]: ah oh

574
00:24:55,668 --> 00:25:05,238
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and that became my four a for
several years and then five dried up

575
00:25:05,401 --> 00:25:05,562
[casey_]: think

576
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,993
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: for political reasons and a lot of
fraud and i started shifting my business around

577
00:25:11,053 --> 00:25:18,921
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: to accommodate and then ovid happened and
business was dead and then the canadian started

578
00:25:19,021 --> 00:25:19,281
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: coming

579
00:25:19,149 --> 00:25:19,529

00:25:27,690 --> 00:25:27,970
[casey_]: oh

585
00:25:28,525 --> 00:25:33,129
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: and i started a podcast which helped
a lot and then they just started coming

586
00:25:33,429 --> 00:25:35,912
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: one day in january of last year
ahead i

587
00:25:35,910 --> 00:25:36,130
[casey_]: yeah

588
00:25:35,952 --> 00:25:41,524
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: think it was hundred and eighty three
inquiries and one day it was out of

589
00:25:41,585 --> 00:25:44,708
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: control so i created a bot because

00:26:52,772 --> 00:26:52,915
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

623
00:26:53,194 --> 00:27:00,987
[casey_]: we we really you know to learn
a lot out business law and and immigration

624
00:27:01,047 --> 00:27:04,974
[casey_]: and all that stuff i mean that
had to be a huge huge take on

625
00:27:05,074 --> 00:27:07,939
[casey_]: and try to figure out how to
get how to how to how to get

626
00:27:07,959 --> 00:27:11,700
[casey_]: your way throug that but i guess
there's more people outside

627
00:27:11,243 --> 00:27:11,484
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: yeah

628
00:27:11,781 --> 00:27:12,822
[casey_]: of the united

629
00:27:12,642 --> 00:27:13,011
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

630
00:27:12,862 --> 00:27:14,445
[casey_]: states looking to invest probably

631
00:27:14,292 --> 00:27:14,493
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: oh

632
00:27:14,485 --> 00:27:17,670
[casey_]: then i guess what any of us
really care to think that there is and

633
00:27:17,690 --> 00:27:19,153
[casey_]: then you know there's

634
00:27:19,824 --> 00:27:19,927
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: kay

635
00:27:20,475 --> 00:27:24,382
[casey_]: and i think that probably could stem
from just about any country i mean and

636
00:27:24,422 --> 00:27:27,727
[casey_]: that's why there's so many different different
laws and stuff in place especially

637
00:27:27,732 --> 00:27:27,752
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: a

638
00:27:27,747 --> 00:27:27,847
[casey_]: when

639
00:27:27,832 --> 00:27:28,133
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: hundred

640
00:27:27,867 --> 00:27:28,348
[casey_]: you start taking

641
00:27:28,173 --> 00:27:28,534
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: per cent

642
00:27:28,408 --> 00:27:29,009
[casey_]: money from the middle

643
00:27:28,855 --> 00:27:29,016
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: there

644
00:27:29,090 --> 00:27:29,250
[casey_]: east

645
00:27:29,156 --> 00:27:29,537
[lauren_cohen__investing_across_borders]: certainly

646
00:27:29,370 --> 00:27:29,671

some degrees is just you just have to

651
00:27:33,757 --> 00:27:38,084

right procedures and protocols and stuff so all
