Ep 146 - Week 21 Live Progress Update

Hey, everybody. Flip and Danny here, founders of the Freedom Real Estate Group family of companies. And welcome to another episode of our.

Podcast, which is called Freedom through Passive Income.

That's right. And this is another one of live, live episodes. This is our Week Update. Our. This is week 21.

Yes.

Week 21 and 2.

1.

Dos uno.

Yeah. Yeah. You didn't look it up, did you?

No, no, I got to 20. I'm pretty proud of that. But welcome to Dos Uno Live. So we just checked. We're at over 8,500 downloads and on YouTube, over 3,700 views.

Bam. That's awesome.

That's a lot.

Yeah. I mean, like over 10,000 people we've touched in some way, which at the very beginning of this, I don't think we knew that anybody was gonna watch. We just said, well, I'm sorry. I just said, hey, honey.

Well, yeah, it wasn't my idea, that's for sure.

So super, super excited. And I know it's gonna continue to gain traction and it's gonna be around for years to come. Right. To continue to help people and to educate and everything, which is what this is all about. We're super, super passionate about things like others along with us as we're on our journey. Why not share?

That's right.

Right.

Wait years to come. I only signed on for one.

Let's just see what happens after one year. Okay. Yeah. Another thing that is happening right now, which really consumed mine and Jody's day yesterday and today is our 48 unit is being refinanced right now.

So this is a different 48 that we just bought. This is a 48 unit from.

That we bought from the 56 package. Yes. So we're refinancing the 48. We're going to sell the smaller of the eight. I think we had talked about that before, that we're just not interested in holding the smaller stuff. We want to have the bigger stuff. Really looking eventually to be getting into 80 doors or more so that we always have on site property management. But it's a growth progress. Right. You want to consistently be able to do the ones in this mid range when we're doing the entire enchilada. Right. We're doing the full operations. We're not partnering with anybody. So we're going to kind of step it up. And that's how you should in business. And so anyways, the refinance. Never realized how much work goes into a refinance of an apartment. The amount of stuff that we're having to put Together for. This is insane. I mean, literally two days in a row, Jody and I are just scrambling to go, okay, get this, get this, get this, get this. So. But now we have it all organized so that in the future as we refinance, it's going to feel like a walk in the park because we put all the hardest, we put all the hard work in on this first one.

Yeah, you said enchilada. Now I want enchiladas for dinner. And also update on our door count. So we have 108 units here, just in our backyard, southwest Ohio. And then we have another 513 that is through Florida and Mississippi.

Yep.

So that's a grand total of 621. That's right.

That's right. So our initial goal and we just. I like to do this. I like to set a benchmark just to have us chase something. Right. To have us focus on what is this goal. And it's usually an arbitrary number that seems kind of big to allow our brains to think bigger. How are we going to do this? And so the number was 1,000, right?

Well, you still have another month and month and a week.

Yeah. So I think it was somebody posted the other day, like, you only have 379 doors to go. I'm like, okay, I don't know if we're going to hit it by the end of July, but one 400 unit.

Will cover it, you know.

Anyways, it's been a fun, I mean, challenge, honestly. And that's all it really is. Whenever you set a goal like that, it's a challenge to do whether you, you know, I used to really get down on myself for not accomplishing it, but now I'm just appreciating the journey and the enjoyment of trying to get there because that's how you grow. So the other thing was we just got an email today asking if we wanted to create a masterclass. It's for one of the masterminds that we were in. And they said, hey, would you guys like to film a masterclass? We're doing this. We're adding this into our program and we're coming out to film in Ohio on these dates. And would you guys like to do it? And it's a series of 20 minute classes about, you know, how you find properties, how you fund them, how you flip them, you know, etc. Etc. So it was interesting. I said, well, I'm interested, but I feel like we've got so much on our plate. I'm like, I don't know if we have time to do this, but we might. But it's always exciting when other people see that there's some value in what we're doing, that they would like us to share the journey again with others, which we're very passionate about doing. So we might just do that. But it was just exciting to be asked, Right?

And usually I'm finding out about deals on this episode, but today I'm finding out about that we were asked to hold a masterclass.

Yes. Yes. Honey, I didn't commit to it this time. Usually I just go, yes. Yeah, that's a first.

Let me write this date down. May 26th. Okay.

I can feel how busy we are, too. So I'm like, okay. I don't even know how to fit this into our schedule.

But I think that's a.
